Subway

Subway offers a pre-packaged gluten-free roll that is manufactured in a gluten-free environment, but the roll is prepared and toasted in a shared kitchen alongside gluten-containing breads. Staff are instructed to change gloves and clean the build area, but multiple independent reports note that this procedure is not always followed, and the chain's own allergen statement says it cannot guarantee any item is 100% free from cross-contact. Several coeliac bloggers advise against eating here due to the high risk of cross-contamination. If you choose to visit, ask staff to change gloves, use fresh deli paper, and avoid the toaster.

Subway provides a Veggie Delite sub and a Plant Patty. The gluten-free bread is also listed as vegan. The menu does not label vegan options, and the shared kitchen makes cross-contact with animal products possible. Staff may allow requests to skip cheese or mayonnaise, but the restaurant has no dedicated vegan preparation area or training.

Subway provides vegetarian fillings such as Veggie Delite, cheese, and salads. Vegetarian options are not marked on the menu. Because the kitchen is shared, cross-contact with meat can occur.
