Insider-led, Owner, chef, staff, or a close friend or family member needs to avoid this allergen themselves; kitchen practice reflects that.

El Árbol is a vegetarian restaurant with many vegan options, as confirmed by multiple HappyCow reviews and the venue's own listing. The restaurant is not 100% vegan (reviews note 'not 100% vegan' and 'not fully vegan'), but the owner/staff appear to be vegetarian/vegan-friendly and the kitchen is accustomed to vegan preparation. Multiple vegan reviewers report positive experiences with vegan dishes like tofu curry, vegan ramen, and vegan pizza. Tier B is appropriate as the venue is insider-led (vegetarian/vegan ethos) with dedicated practice.

Marked menu + dedicated, Allergen-marked menu plus dedicated fryer / prep area. Staff trained. Not a fully dedicated kitchen.

El Árbol is a vegetarian/vegan restaurant with some gluten-free options (e.g., pizza, ramen) but is not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. HappyCow reviews note vegan options but no mention of dedicated GF fryer or prep area. The Coeliac UK accreditation page for 'Santiago' does not list El Árbol; it requires member login and the venue name does not match. No source confirms a marked GF menu or dedicated equipment. Tier C is assigned based on the presence of some GF options and aware staff, but with shared kitchen and no formal certification.
