Per-allergen evidence
Pourhouse has a dedicated gluten-free fryer, and the General Manager is coeliac, which drives strong staff knowledge of cross-contact. The happy hour and dinner menus mark several items GF, and multiple coeliac diners report no symptoms. However, the kitchen is shared, substitutions are declined, one review describes a server denying the truffle tots are GF or have a GF fryer, and a call ahead is recommended to confirm practice on the day.
