The Olive Grove
The Olive Grove has a dedicated gluten-free section on its online menu, and many dishes are marked GF. Staff will check with the kitchen to verify gluten-free status. However, the kitchen is shared with gluten-containing items including pitta bread, souvlaki wraps, and some starters and pizzas. While there's a decent selection of GF options, the venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists. Call ahead to discuss your specific needs.

The venue has a dedicated 'Vegan' menu section with 25+ items, many of which are also labelled gluten-free. Multiple vegan starters, mains, and skepasti options are available. However, the kitchen is shared and many items contain dairy, so cross-contamination is possible. The vegan skepasti uses pitta bread which contains gluten, though some vegan items are naturally gluten-free.

Several meat dishes are labelled 'Halal' on the menu, including Lamb Fillet, Kofta, Kleftiko Kotsi, and Chicken Thighs. Not all meat items carry the halal label, and the kitchen handles non-halal items too. Ask staff about the extent of halal options available.

Dairy-free
confidence 50% ·
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.
A few items are explicitly labelled as 'Dairy-Free' or 'No Dairy' on the menu, such as Melitzanosalata and Kleftiko Kotsi. However, the majority of dishes contain cheese, yoghurt, or other dairy ingredients. There is no dedicated dairy-free section and no indication of separate preparation for dairy-free orders. Best to call ahead to discuss needs.

Shellfish-free
confidence 75% ·
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.
Both the 'Calamari Fried' and 'Kritharoto Garida Saganaki' (king prawns) are explicitly labelled as 'Contains: Shellfish'. The menu makes this clear. For those with shellfish allergy, these dishes are served in a shared kitchen, so cross-contamination is a real risk.
