The Cowrie Restaurant
The Cowrie offers gluten-free options.
Per-allergen evidence
The Cowrie offers gluten-free options. A diner reported nearly the entire menu can be made gluten-free except the gnocchi, with gluten-free cheesecake and risotto available, but the kitchen is shared and the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. The AGFG listing also includes it under 'gluten-free options'. No dedicated fryer or separate prep area is mentioned. Calling ahead to discuss cross-contamination protocols is advised.
