The Veg Box Cafe operates a 100% vegan kitchen, meaning all food is prepared without animal products. Staff confirm this. Dairy milk, butter, and cheese are available at the front counter for non-vegan customers, which may cause some cross-contact if shared utensils are used. The kitchen itself is vegan, so the food is safe for vegans.

Strongly trusted ·what tier A means

The kitchen is 100% vegan. This means no dairy is used in cooking, though dairy milk, butter, and cheese are available at the front as optional additions but are not part of the kitchen. This makes the cafe safe for dairy-free diners, though cross-contact from the front area is possible.

Best effort ·what tier C means

The Veg Box Cafe is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Cross-contamination is a risk for coeliac diners because the kitchen is shared and there is no dedicated fryer. Some menu items are labeled gluten-free, but staff knowledge varies. A blog claims that all hot lunches and salads are gluten-free, though the aggregator's official warning states the cafe may not be safe for coeliac disease. Calling ahead to confirm is advised.

Reminder

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