Light Years - Newcastle

confidence 80% ·

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

GF items are marked on the menu and multiple coeliac diners report knowledgeable, accommodating staff who will walk you through safe options and adapt dishes. One reviewer noted a chef is also coeliac. The kitchen is shared, not dedicated, so cross-contamination is possible. Good communication around coeliac needs is the norm here, making it a strong choice for gluten-free dining in a shared-kitchen setting.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

Several vegan options are available (smashed cucumbers, wild truffled mushrooms bao, eggplant katsu, miso caramel eggplant, tofu san choy bow, turmeric & coconut cauliflower curry, mango & coconut sago) and vegan diners report the staff will adapt dishes by removing butter or other non-vegan ingredients. The menu marks (v) for vegetarian items, not specifically vegan. A vegan banquet is available on request. Shared kitchen with no dedicated prep area.
