The Butter Factory Cafe
Not a dedicated gluten-free facility, but has a dedicated gluten-free preparation area, separate fridge and utensils, a dedicated fryer and toaster, and labelled gluten-free cutlery and plates. Gluten items are kept on a separate shelf in the display cabinet. Staff are described as knowledgeable and will clean prep space or change gloves. Menu items are marked GF and almost everything can be made gluten-free at no extra charge. A symptomatic coeliac community member reported 'very conscious of coeliac disease and so much variety'. Multiple coeliac diners reported zero reactions across many visits. Shared kitchen is not fully dedicated so classified as A rather than A+.

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.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.
HappyCow lists the cafe as 'Veg Options' with clearly labelled menu including a full vegan breakfast, seasonal fruit bowl with coconut yogurt, and the Roquette Man vegan burger. Plant-based milk alternatives are available at no additional cost. The kitchen serves meat, so cross-contamination is a possibility, but staff are described as accommodating. A review specifically noted the cafe is 'good for dairy-free' and handles other dietary requirements on request. Dedicated equipment for gluten-free suggests some separation but not specifically for vegan.
