Opera Bar

Menu marks individual dishes GF (e.g. Sydney Rock Oysters GF/DF, Tiger Prawn Cocktail GF/DF, Grilled Swordfish DF/GF, Grilled Steak GF/DF). The venue's own disclaimer states the kitchen 'handles nuts, shellfish, and gluten' and cannot guarantee allergen-free food. FindMeGlutenFree community reports no dedicated fryer. Multiple coeliac reviewers report GF items available and staff willing to add a coeliac note to orders, but at least one recent reviewer (6 months ago) reports 'no GF pizza' and describes it as 'really, really poor choice for coeliacs', while another advises only the raw bar is coeliac-safe.

The menu uses V for vegetarian dishes and VO for vegetarian option. Examples include Young Pea & Feta Fritters (V), Caesar Salad with an option, Green Goddess Salad (DF/V), Garlic Bread (V), Margherita (V), Honey & Confit Garlic (V), and desserts. A shared kitchen handles meat and seafood as well.

Menu marks dishes VG (Vegan), including Basta Falafel VG, Vegan Burger VG, Golden Cauliflower VG/GF, Fries VG, Sweet Potato Wedges VG, Peach & Mango Hand Pies VG, and late-night items. Vegan cheese swap available on pizzas (+$4). HappyCow review also reports multiple marked vegan items. Shared kitchen handling animal products; no dedicated preparation area evidenced.

Menu marks DF (Dairy Free) on numerous dishes (Sydney Rock Oysters, Sashimi Platter, Tiger Prawn Cocktail, Fish n Chips, Grilled Swordfish, BBQ Pork Chop, Grilled Steak, Fries, Sweet Potato Wedges etc.). FindMeGlutenFree community also notes 'Good for dairy-free'. Shared kitchen; no dedicated prep area evidenced.

Multiple clearly pescatarian options exist (seafood dishes, vegetarian pizzas and salads), and the VG/V/DF marking system helps identify them. No explicit 'pescatarian' marking, but the combination of fish dishes and vegetarian-marked items provides adequate guidance. Shared kitchen with meat (pork, chicken, beef).

The venue's menu disclaimer states the kitchen 'handles nuts'. The kids' meals section warns that nuts are a common allergen and cross-contamination may occur. No marked NF dishes appear on the menu. Staff are advised to be informed of allergies, but the venue provides no structural nut-free provision.

The venue states its kitchen handles shellfish. Several shellfish dishes appear on the menu, including oysters, prawns, scallops, and squid. No system for marking items as shellfish-free was evident. Staff can be told about allergies, but no structural provision for a shellfish-free meal is documented.
