Tabouli restaurant in 189 Lygon St

Tabouli

The Wheree listing and the Weeblyte site both state that the menu includes vegan options. The Wheree FAQ explicitly says 'Yes, there are vegan options available on the menu at the venue.' However, no source mentions a marked menu, dedicated prep area, or staff training for vegan requests. The venue is a traditional Lebanese restaurant, so cross-contamination with animal products is likely in a shared kitchen.

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

Multiple sources (Wheree, Weeblyte, Melbourne10) state that the menu includes vegetarian options. The Wheree description says 'catering to a variety of dietary preferences, including vegetarian and vegan options.' The Weeblyte site says 'Vegetarian patrons are particularly well catered for with several delicious options available.' No source mentions a marked menu, dedicated prep, or staff training for vegetarian requests.

Halal

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

The Wheree listing categorises Tabouli under 'Halal Restaurants' and the FAQ states it offers 'halal options.' No source provides details about certification, a dedicated kitchen, or staff training for halal compliance. The venue is a Lebanese restaurant, making halal options plausible, but the evidence is limited to a category tag and a generic FAQ statement.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 0.55 ·

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

No source provides any information about gluten-free options, a dedicated fryer, or staff training for coeliac safety at this venue. The restaurant serves traditional Lebanese cuisine which typically includes bulgur wheat (gluten). The Wheree listing mentions vegetarian and vegan options but not gluten-free. Without any evidence of accommodation, the tier defaults to 'Available on request' with low confidence.
