Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.
Prezzo runs a shared kitchen but offers a dedicated gluten-free menu section with dishes made from gluten-free pasta and pizza bases. Menu items are clearly marked GF and an interactive allergen filter lets you hide items that contain or may contain gluten. There is no evidence of a dedicated fryer or separate prep area, and the chain acknowledges potential cross-contact via a 'Contain And May Contain' filter option. Cross-contamination risk is present, so the kitchen is best for non-coeliac gluten avoidance or for coeliacs who are comfortable with a shared kitchen and careful staff.
