Brunetti Oro Flinders Lane

The Flinders Lane menu marks gluten-friendly pizza (+$4.5) and gluten-friendly gnocchi (+$5) as add-ons, and lists a few flourless biscuits. The kitchen is shared with wheat-based dishes and staff acknowledge cross-contamination risk. A coeliac reviewer reported knowledgeable staff who could make most pasta with GF gnocchi, but noted no dedicated fryer and no GF cakes in the cabinet. Another reviewer was told the kitchen could not guarantee GF safety. Call ahead to confirm current practices.

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

The Flinders Lane menu marks several items as 'vg' (vegan): Bruschetta Classica, Napoli pasta, Margherita pizza (fior di latte can be removed), Primavera pizza, and vegan mozzarella is available as an add-on (+$4.5). The Swanston menu also marks items 'vg' and offers vegan mozzarella. The kitchen is shared, so cross-contamination is possible. Vegan diners should confirm with staff.

Dairy-free

confidence 60% ·

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

The Flinders Lane menu offers lactose-free milk as a coffee add-on (+$0.7) and vegan mozzarella as a pizza add-on (+$4.5). Several dishes are marked 'v' (vegetarian) and 'vg' (vegan) which may be dairy-free, but the menu does not systematically mark dairy-free items. The kitchen is shared, so cross-contamination is possible. Dairy-free diners should confirm with staff.

Nut-free

confidence 40% ·

Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

The Flinders Lane menu includes a note: 'Att: Kalamatta Olives may contain nuts'. Several dishes contain nuts (e.g., caramelised walnuts, pistachio, pine nuts). No dedicated nut-free kitchen or systematic nut-free marking is evident. Nut-allergic diners should call ahead to discuss options.
