Verifiably safe, Independently verified safe for this allergen: either a 100% dedicated kitchen (no allergen on premises) or a current accreditation we've matched against the body's own published directory.

Foodstory is a vegetarian cafe at its core. The menu is entirely vegetarian, and the venue describes itself as a 'vegetarian/vegan' operation on the website and HappyCow. No meat is served. It's as safe as it gets for vegetarians.

Foodstory is a vegetarian/vegan cafe with no meat and reportedly removed fish from the menu in 2018. It is inherently a safe and easy choice for pescatarians looking for plant-based options.

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

The vast majority of the menu is vegan or can be made vegan. HappyCow reviews repeatedly call it 'mainly vegan' with 'loads of vegan options'. The dinner menu was described as 100% vegan in one review. However, dairy items (milk, cheese, eggs) are present on the breakfast/lunch menu for vegetarian customers, so it's not a fully vegan kitchen. The cafe uses oat, almond, coconut, and soy milks with no surcharge. A very strong choice for vegans, but note the presence of some dairy ingredients.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

A vegetarian/vegan cafe offering several marked gluten-free options including cakes, pancakes, foccacia, and salads. The kitchen is shared and not dedicated GF, but one coeliac reviewer spotted a dedicated GF section near the kitchen and noted staff were knowledgeable about cross-contamination. Another reviewer reported excellent GF pancakes and GF items marked on the menu. One review complained about soggy GF cakes, so quality can vary. Best for those with gluten intolerance rather than coeliac, or call ahead to confirm protocols.

The cafe offers several dairy-free milk alternatives (oat, almond, coconut, soy) with no surcharge, and many dishes are vegan (and therefore dairy-free). But dairy ingredients (milk, cheese, eggs, butter) are used in some vegetarian items on the menu. No dedicated dairy-free fryer or kitchen area noted. The allergens list is referenced on the menu images but couldn't be read here. Vegans in reviews report plenty of dairy-free cake options. A decent choice for dairy-free diners who can order the clearly vegan dishes.

Eggs are used in some vegetarian dishes (e.g. poached egg on toast, veggie roll). But many dishes are vegan and therefore egg-free. The vegan versions of dishes swap eggs for tofu scramble. No dedicated egg-free equipment noted. Strong options for egg-free diners among the clearly vegan marked dishes.

No source discusses nut safety directly. Some dishes likely contain nuts (e.g. caramelised pecans, peanut bat item). Staff are described as knowledgeable about allergies by one reviewer. Best effort only; ask staff directly.
