confidence 55% ·

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 includes gluten-free bread and a gluten-free banana bread, but the kitchen is shared with wheat-based items such as brioche buns and croissants. There is no dedicated gluten-free kitchen or fryer noted, and staff training on coeliac protocols is unconfirmed. A diner with coeliac disease should call ahead to discuss cross-contamination precautions before ordering.
