Venue's own site states '100% Plant-Based Experience'; Atly describes it as a 'vegan café' with non-dairy ice cream. The entire operation appears dedicated to plant-based foods, making cross-contamination with animal products structurally impossible.
Venue's own website states 'cuisine 100% végétalienne' (100% vegan kitchen), so no animal products on premises. Supported by Wanderlog label as 'Vegan restaurant' and multiple reviews confirming vegan fare.
Burger Fiancé is a 100% plant-based (vegan) restaurant, listed as 'Vegan' on HappyCow and described on Uber Eats as '100% Plant-Based'. All menu items are vegan; no animal products are used in the kitchen. This constitutes a structurally dedicated vegan kitchen.

Fully vegan restaurant with no animal products on the premises. Labeled as a vegan restaurant by multiple sources.
A 100% dedicated gluten-free bakery with no gluten on premises, corroborated by multiple aggregator tags (Atly: '100% Dedicated Gluten-Free'; gfaroundtheworld: '100% Gluten Free') and consistently positive reviews from coeliac diners across four 5-star Google reviews. Ingredient lists from the venue's own site use only gluten-free flours (rice, tapioca, buckwheat).
Confirmed dedicated gluten-free venue: blog with verified coeliac author lists Arepera as 100% gluten free, multiple Uber Eats reviews from coeliac diners report no reaction, and the menu is based on corn masa (arepas/empanadas) with no wheat items listed. The venue's own site describes its dishes as gluten-free.
The venue's name 'Sans Gluten' and its official homepage state that there is no handling of gluten on the premises. All listed products are explicitly labelled gluten-free, and prepared foods such as sandwiches and desserts are also made with gluten-free recipes. This constitutes a structurally dedicated gluten-free environment, meeting Tier S criteria.
Tapi Go! operates a fully dedicated gluten-free kitchen with no gluten-containing ingredients on site, as confirmed by the co-owner in response to a customer review. The venue is described as 'everything is gluten free' by multiple sources. One coeliac diner reported a severe reaction after two visits, but the owner's detailed response describing the dedicated kitchen and batch preparation process, combined with the absence of other similar reports, supports the dedicated-kitchen claim. The single adverse report is noted as a caveat.
Honest caveat, One coeliac diner reported a severe reaction after two visits, though the owner states no other similar reports were received and the kitchen is fully dedicated.
The venue's official website and homepage explicitly state '100% vegan gluten-free' and 'gluten-free' across all offerings. The menu page confirms all items are gluten-free, and the venue sells Sarrasin Boulangerie gluten-free bread made in-house. HappyCow lists it as 'all-gluten free' and multiple reviews from coeliac-recommended and gluten-free diners confirm safe experiences. While no formal accreditation from Coeliac UK or Coeliac Society of Ireland is cited, the venue's own structural claim of a 100% gluten-free kitchen (no gluten on premises) qualifies for Tier S under path (i) of rule 1a.
The menu marks vegetarian dishes with a double asterisk (**). Many pasta, pizza, and contorni options are marked vegetarian. No dedicated prep area is mentioned, but the marked menu provides clear guidance.
The venue is described as 'accommodating gluten-free' with a gluten-free menu and trained staff, but cross-contamination risk is acknowledged ('some risk of cross-contamination'). One community review reports a positive experience with good knowledge of coeliac disease and careful cross-contamination practices, while another reports a negative experience where a gluten/lactose-free request resulted in pasta swimming in canola oil. No dedicated kitchen or fryer is mentioned. The official menu pages are image-based and do not show allergen marking codes.
The menu flags pizzas #47, #65, and #71 as containing nuts (pesto with pine nuts) and states they 'may contain traces of other varieties of nuts'. The pesto is also noted to contain nuts. Cross-contamination is possible via shared equipment and the kitchen warns it cannot guarantee allergen absence. Some per-dish nut marking exists, but no dedicated nut-free protocol.
Vegan options are clearly labelled on the menu (HappyCow reviewer confirms 'vegan options and allergens are clearly labelled'), including vegan salads, bowls, and soups. The venue also serves meat and the kitchen is shared, so cross-contamination risk exists. One review notes that the 'mock chicken contains dairy', reinforcing that non-vegan ingredients are used.
Menu features a 'Sans gluten' filter identifying gluten-free dishes, but no information on dedicated fryer, prep area, or staff training. Shared kitchen is likely.
Same as vegetarian: the website mentions vegan options and an allergen PDF, but no per-dish marking, no dedicated equipment, and no staff training details. Shared kitchen with cross-contamination risk.
Atly community listing marks gluten-free options on the menu and notes trained staff, but warns of some risk of cross-contamination. No dedicated kitchen or fryer mentioned, and no accreditation.
A gluten-free menu is available, listing marked items such as pizzas with corn dough and pasta (spaghetti, penne, GF chocolate cake). The menu was expanded as of 2016, but the kitchen is shared; no dedicated space, fryer, or accreditation is mentioned in any source. GF bread is typically available but was out on one visit. Multiple sources (a GF blog, a restaurant review, and an aggregator) confirm the presence of GF options, but the venue's own website (2026) does not mention them, and no recent coeliac-specific safety evidence is available.
Extensive vegetarian pizza and salad options (e. g., Veggie Delight, Margherita, Four Cheese, spinach salad). Menu clearly marks vegetarian items. Shared preparation area with meat toppings; vegetarian items are prepared on the same surfaces.
HappyCow listing and multiple reviews confirm vegan options (e. g., jackfruit poke bowl, vegan pizza with vita lite cheese). One reviewer notes options are 'clearly labeled' on the in-restaurant menu. Menu page shows no dietary symbols online. Shared kitchen with meat and dairy; no dedicated fryer or prep area mentioned. Staff training and cross-contamination risk not addressed.
Universel offers gluten-free bread as an option; grilled items and omelets are a common choice, but their fried potatoes share a fryer with gluten-containing items (cross-contamination risk noted by a coeliac diner). The restaurant does not have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen or fryer. Menu markings are not evidenced; staff will accommodate upon request.
The venue offers gluten-free bread as an option for an additional $3. 50, and staff are described as trained with low cross-contamination risk (per Atly). However, the venue's own menu does not mark gluten-free dishes, and no dedicated kitchen or fryer is mentioned. Accommodation is available upon request.
Atly community listing marks Dinette Marcella as 'Accommodating gluten-free' with trained staff and some risk of cross-contamination.
