The Old Triangle Irish Alehouse

The menu marks a few items as gluten-free (pasta, pizza, burgers with GF buns) but the kitchen is shared and there is no dedicated fryer—fries are cross-contaminated. Staff knowledge varies: some reviewers report well-informed waitresses who check with the chef, while others describe staff who had to run every question back to the kitchen. Both gravy and curry sauce are thickened with flour, so most dishes can't be adapted. A gluten-free surcharge is sometimes added despite the menu stating otherwise. Call ahead to confirm current practices and ask about dedicated prep space.

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

Vegetarian options are marked with a green leaf on the menu, but cross-contamination is a real concern: sweet potato fries labelled 'vegetarian' are fried in the same oil as meat. A vegan reviewer was told by the chef that only the garden salad is reliably vegan. Staff are friendly and will check ingredients, but the shared fryer and kitchen mean vegetarian dishes may not be prepared separately. Confirm your order's cooking method with the server.

Not recommended, Documented unsafe for this allergen: refuses to accommodate, multiple bad reports, or a documented incident. Surfaced as a warning rather than a recommendation.

A vegan reviewer was told by the chef that, aside from the garden salad, there are no vegan options on the menu. The menu has changed since then, but the same reviewer stated they will never return. Another reviewer ordered a margherita pizza without cheese as a workaround. Cross-contamination with meat fryer oil is also documented. Not recommended for vegans.

Reminder

Always confirm with venue staff before ordering. Tiers and accreditations are guides, not guarantees.
