The Green Galley

Multiple HappyCow reviewers describe the cafe as having 'lots of vegan options', 'vegan burger', 'totally vegan', and the owner states they stock Byron Bay Gluten Free/Vegan Maple & Pecan cookies. The menu includes vegan cheese toasties, vegan burger patties, falafel wraps, and smoothies made with plant-based milks (coconut, macadamia, almond, oat, soy). A Saucy Spots listing explicitly says 'vegetarian and vegan dishes'. The HappyCow listing is categorised as 'Vegetarian (Lacto, Ovo)' and mentions 'vegan options'. This is a vegetarian-first cafe that clearly accommodates vegans with multiple menu items, but not a fully vegan kitchen. Still, options are abundant and well-documented across many reviews.

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 65% ·

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

A vegetarian cafe offering gluten-free buns for burgers, gluten-free wraps, and items explicitly labelled 'g/f' on photos. An Atly community review noted the wall advertised gluten-free but staff didn't seem to know what it meant, while another reviewer praised the 'many vegan and gluten-free options'. The menu includes items like iced chocolate marked 'g/f' and the owner mentioned stocking Byron Bay Gluten Free/Vegan Maple & Pecan cookies. There is no dedicated gluten-free kitchen or formal accreditation — it's a shared kitchen in a small cafe. Best suited for confident gluten-sensitive diners who can quiz staff about cross-contamination.

Dairy-free

confidence 55% ·

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

Several menu photos show items marked 'g/f w' vegan options' and mention plant-based milks including coconut, macadamia, almond, oat, and soy. Vegan cheese is available for toasties and burgers. However, this is a cafe that also serves regular (non-dairy-free) items — the HappyCow category includes 'Lacto' (lacto-vegetarian). There's no dedicated dairy-free zone or equipment. A diner would need to request dairy-free modifications and confirm which items are safe.
