Corner & Bench

Several menu items are labelled 'Gluten free' (Butter Chicken, Green Chicken Curry, Mumma's Meatballs, soups) but the kitchen also handles pasta, lasagna, gnocchi, filo pastry and other gluten-containing products. No dedicated gluten-free prep area, dedicated fryer, or certified accreditation is mentioned; cross-contamination risk is structural.

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

Multiple dishes are labelled 'Vegetarian' on the menu (Vegetable Lasagna, Veggie Turmeric Curry, soups, Mac and Cheese) and AGFG lists 'Vegetarian Options'; shared kitchen with meat dishes means cross-contamination risk remains.

Dairy-free

confidence 0.45 ·

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

AGFG lists 'Dairy Free Options' and some menu items (e.g. Veggie Turmeric Curry, Beef Bolognese, cold press juices) appear dairy-free by ingredients, but the kitchen is heavily dairy-reliant (béchamel, cream, butter, cheese throughout); no dedicated dairy-free prep area is mentioned.
