Schnitz Mornington
Schnitz offers a Gluten-Free Wrap and a Corn Crunch Crumbs option labelled 'Gluten Friendly'. Their detailed online allergen guide marks which items contain wheat/gluten. However, the kitchen is shared with gluten-containing ingredients (traditional crumbs, wraps, chips, tenders all contain wheat/gluten), and the venue states it cannot guarantee allergen-free meals due to potential trace allergens. Staff can guide you, but cross-contamination risk is real. Best for coeliac diners who are comfortable with a shared fryer and ask staff for the safest order.

Schnitz explicitly lists a 'Veggie Patty' protein option and a 'traditional crumb veggie schnitzel' used in the Veggie Volcano Loaded Chips. The Garden of Eden burger/wrap also includes vegetables. The allergen guide notes the veggie patty contains onion. Shared fryer with chicken items means cross-contact is possible, but the menu clearly signals vegetarian options.

Soy is present in the seasoned plant-based batter, traditional crumbs, burger rolls/wraps, and many sauces (kettle-cooked gravy, cheese sauce). The Gluten-Free Wrap contains soy. The allergen guide clearly marks soy content per item. Shared kitchen means cross-contact is possible, but the information is transparent.
Vegan
confidence 50% ·
Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.
The only explicitly vegan item noted is the 'Vegan Cookie Butter Loaded Cookie' (contains wheat, gluten, soy; may contain egg, milk, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame seeds according to the allergen guide). No vegan mains are indicated on the main menu — the veggie patty likely contains dairy/egg, and all schnitzel crumbs contain egg and milk. Vegan diners will need to ask staff about customisation, but the menu does not currently support a full vegan meal.

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.
Tree nuts and peanuts are listed as 'may contain' in many items across the allergen guide — burgers, salads, loaded chips, tenders, desserts, and sauces. The allergen notes state the kitchen cannot guarantee allergen-free meals due to trace allergens. No dedicated nut-free prep area. Nut-allergic diners should exercise caution.
Dairy-free

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.
Many menu items contain milk/cheese — almost all burgers, wraps, parmas, loaded chips, salads with feta, and desserts. Some items like the Garden of Eden burger (no cheese) and a plain schnitzel may be dairy-free, but the allergen guide lists milk as present or may-be-present across most categories including crumbs, sauces, and dressings. Shared kitchen and fryer. Best to discuss with staff.

Egg is widespread — in the seasoned plant-based batter, all crumbs, most burger fillings (mayonnaise-based sauces), Caesar salad, and desserts. A plain schnitzel with traditional crumbs still contains egg in the wash. The kitchen is shared. Egg allergy diners should consult the detailed allergen PDF and speak to staff.

Crustaceans and fish are listed as 'may contain' across multiple menu categories — crumbs, schnitzels, sauces, salads, and chips. The seasoned plant-based batter and some crumbs explicitly list crustaceans and fish as may-be-present. No separate fryer known. The risk of cross-contact exists.
