Hot Shott
Hot Shott Kitchen is a popular Gold Coast cafe with gluten-free options marked on the menu. The community-run CoeliacEasy listing notes that staff know how to cater for coeliacs and frequent visits have been safe. However the kitchen is shared with gluten-containing dishes and no dedicated fryer, kitchen, or accreditation is documented. Cross-contamination risk is managed by staff awareness, not structural separation. Best to call ahead and speak directly with the chef before ordering.

Honest caveat: No source has independently verified a dedicated gluten-free fryer or kitchen; risk depends on shift and which staff member is on.
