Waves on the Beach Restaurant

The menu marks gluten-free items with (gf) and a dedicated Gluten-Free Menu is available, but the kitchen is shared and the venue explicitly warns that it cannot guarantee trace-element-free meals. Multiple community reviews confirm a dedicated fryer for chips, helpful staff, and good experiences for coeliac diners, though the venue itself makes no safety guarantees. Best for less-sensitive gluten-free diners; celiacs should call ahead.

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 marks gluten-free items with (gf) and a dedicated Gluten-Free Menu is available, but the kitchen is shared and the venue explicitly warns that it cannot guarantee trace-element-free meals. Multiple community reviews confirm a dedicated fryer for chips, helpful staff, and good experiences for coeliac diners, though the venue itself makes no safety guarantees. Best for less-sensitive gluten-free diners; celiacs should call ahead.

Honest caveat: The venue states it cannot guarantee completely allergy-free meals and recommends diners with severe allergies bring their own food.

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