Multiple independent sources flag serious safety issues for coeliac/gluten-free diners at Royal Stacks. The owner ('Dani') reportedly advised a coeliac community member not to eat there when asked about an allergen menu. A separate reviewer (self-identified Celiac) was told all utensils and the toaster were shared. The aggregator listing reports no dedicated kitchen and no dedicated fryer. One older reviewer (2018) found staff helpful, but this is outweighed by more recent documented hostility and structural shared-equipment reports. This venue is not appropriate for those with coeliac disease.

The same documented incident involving a child's peanut and pine nut allergy — where staff confirmed safety but a severe reaction followed — applies here. Staff were explicitly informed of the nut allergy; the outcome was an emergency department visit. No allergen menu exists to support independent verification.

A parent specifically declared their child's egg (and nut) allergy at the counter; kitchen staff confirmed the food was safe, but the child suffered a severe allergic reaction requiring emergency hospital treatment, most likely from egg in the bun or patty. This is a documented wrong-dish or mislabelling event with a confirmed medical outcome.
