Vegetarian Food Studio

115-117 Penarth Rd · Vegetarian · Vegan

The kitchen operates entirely on vegetarian and vegan principles, with no meat served on the premises. This makes it inherently safe for vegetarians.

Blossom Cafe

BLOSSOM CAFE · Cafe · Turkish

Blossom Cafe has a dedicated gluten-free menu that includes cakes, bread, and omelets. Staff use a separate toaster and are allergy-aware. The menu was revamped to include labelling for gluten-free and dairy-free options. The homemade bread is not gluten-free, and the availability of gluten-free and dairy-free cakes can be inconsistent. Neither a dedicated gluten-free kitchen nor formal accreditation has been confirmed.

The restaurant Luna's Vegan Corner is fully vegan. Its dishes contain no animal products. A kitchen dedicated to plant-based cooking means the establishment is a safe choice for vegans.

Chopstix - Cardiff St. David's

Unit KLG15 St. David's Shopping Centre ·

The restaurant uses no nuts or peanuts in its products, though it cannot guarantee that items are completely nut-free due to shared equipment and cross-contamination risk. Individual dishes are marked as nut-free on the menu.

The Ivy Cardiff

St Davids Centre ·

A separate vegetarian and vegan menu is offered at The Ivy Cardiff, with vegan dishes clearly marked. Staff can make substitutions and are aware of vegan options. Cross-contamination with non-vegan items is possible because the kitchen is shared. Dessert options for vegans are limited.

Fat Hippo Cardiff

Banana Tree Cardiff

16 Mill Ln · Brunch · Vegan

The restaurant's official menu marks gluten-free (GF) dishes and includes an allergen filter to exclude gluten. The kitchen is shared, and many dishes carry 'may contain' warnings for wheat and gluten. No dedicated fryer or separate preparation area is mentioned. HappyCow reviewers note that the menu is clearly labelled. This venue is best for coeliac diners who are comfortable with shared-kitchen risk; they should confirm with staff before ordering.

Turtle Bay Cardiff

114-116 St Mary St · Brunch

The official menu marks many dishes with Vegan icons; the venue is described as 'Vegan friendly' on SquareMeal. The kitchen is shared, so cross-contamination is possible. Staff can provide allergen information on request.

Pasture Restaurant Cardiff

8-10 High St · Steak

Staff at Pasture Restaurant Cardiff are well trained on coeliac needs. Separate kitchen areas are used for gluten-free preparation. A separate menu is provided upon arrival. The restaurant does not have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen or accreditation; diners should confirm their requirements with staff before ordering.

Hudo Lounge

Pontcanna · Brunch · Cafe

Hudo Lounge's own site and directory listings mention dedicated gluten-free options, and AI-generated or user-curated lists claim a 'Celiac friendly' icon with a 'big and safe' gluten-free menu. However, a user review notes that the online allergy matrix should be double-checked because not everything listed is coeliac-safe, and no source describes dedicated fryers, separate prep areas, or staff training. Best-effort accommodation is likely, but safe practice varies. Call ahead to confirm.
