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

SHOP225 describes itself as 'vegan-centric', with vegan options across pizza, pasta, and dessert (including a vegan tiramisu). The chef reportedly works closely to ensure dishes 'stand alone when ordered as vegan'. Most ingredients are made in-house. However, this is a shared kitchen environment (traditional Italian pizzeria with dairy and meat), so cross-contamination cannot be ruled out. No Vegan Society accreditation is evidenced.

Vegetarian

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

Vegetarian options are implied by the venue's strong vegan focus and in-house production of pasta, gnocchi, and pizza dough. The venue explicitly markets inclusivity for multiple dietary needs including vegan, which encompasses vegetarian. Shared kitchen with meat dishes.

Halal

confidence 0.70 ·

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

Multiple social posts reference 'halal certified meat supply', 'halal approved' delivery, and 'halal options'. One post notes 'when you order the Halal option, we select the best flavour profile'. The venue markets halal options prominently. However, no specific halal certification body is named in the sources, so full Tier S/A cannot be confirmed; the kitchen also serves non-halal products.

Pescatarian

confidence 0.55 ·

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

Pasta dishes such as 'Fettuccine Mare e Monti' (sea and mountain) suggest fish/seafood options exist alongside meat. Pescatarian diners can likely find suitable dishes, but no explicit pescatarian labelling is evidenced. Shared kitchen.

Reminder

Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
