Napoljonska - Café & Brunch & Juicebar

The cafe marks several menu items as gluten-free — bread, buns, dessert, cakes — and multiple diners report GF-labelled dishes. However, the kitchen is shared and the FindMeGlutenFree listing explicitly warns it is not a dedicated facility; cross-contamination risk is acknowledged. Staff may be able to help when asked, but quality of the answer varies. Call ahead to confirm your specific needs.

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

confidence 45% ·

Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

The venue is described as 'Vegetarian' on its HappyCow listing, and staff mention a vegetarian brunch plate (with honey in the muesli, so not fully vegan). There are no details about kitchen practice, dedicated equipment, or how reliably vegetarian dishes are kept separate from meat. The signal is thin; call ahead and confirm.

Dairy-free

Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

The only dairy-related signal is a passing mention that the cafe offers soy and oat milk for coffee. No marked-menu item for dairy-free, no details on cross-contamination or dedicated equipment. Thin signal; call ahead.

Vegan

confidence 70% ·

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.

Multiple independent sources report serious issues for vegans. A HappyCow reviewer was told there is 'NOTHING VEGAN' despite menu claims; another reviewer on Wanderlog says 'there’s almost nothing vegan on the menu'. Even the muesli contains honey. Staff have reportedly been hostile when asked about vegan options. This venue is not reliable for vegan diners.

Honest caveat: Two separate reviewers report being told the venue has almost nothing vegan despite being promoted as vegan-friendly; one reviewer was 'practically yelled at' by staff.

Reminder

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