Pescatarian

confidence 70% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

The menu is heavily seafood-focused with many fish and shellfish dishes, plus vegetarian sides and desserts. Pescatarian options are abundant and clearly listed. The shared kitchen also handles meat (beef, lamb, duck, pork), so cross-contamination with meat is possible but the menu is very pescatarian-friendly.

Nut-free

confidence 50% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu marks (N) for dishes containing nuts, such as burrata puff tart, dips & bread, and some desserts. There is no mention of a nut-free kitchen or dedicated equipment. Staff can be informed of nut allergies, but cross-contamination risk is present in a shared kitchen. Community help wanted for more detailed safety info.

marked menu

Shellfish-free

confidence 50% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The menu features many shellfish dishes (oysters, prawns, lobster, mussels, Moreton Bay bugs) and marks Australian seafood (A) and mixed seafood (M). There is no dedicated shellfish-free kitchen or equipment. Cross-contamination is likely in a seafood-focused kitchen. Community help wanted for more detailed safety info.
