The Winey Cow

The Brunch Stack is described as gluten-free on the Mornington menu, and several FindMeGlutenFree reviewers report gluten-free items marked on the menu, a dedicated fryer for chips/GF fried food, and knowledgeable staff. However, the kitchen is shared and the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Coeliac diners have reported no symptoms, but cross-contamination risk exists.
