Not recommended ·what tier D means

The venue states that all products contain or have been in contact with gluten and cannot serve anyone with a gluten allergy. Multiple gluten-free diners report cross-contact risks, including a shared fryer and no dedicated equipment. Several advise dining at one's own risk. The venue is not recommended for coeliac dining.

Honest caveat: Venue's official policy refuses service for gluten allergy and warns of cross-contact risk; diners report shared fryer and no dedicated equipment.
