The Rusty Keg
The Rusty Keg reports a separate gluten-free menu with items like beef and broccoli, steak, and sticky toffee pudding, according to a community review on FindMeGlutenFree. A dishcult listing also flags 'Vegan Friendly' and 'Vegetarian Friendly' cuisines, but does not detail gluten marking on the menu. The kitchen is shared (not dedicated gluten-free), no dedicated fryer or separate prep area is mentioned, and no accreditation from Coeliac UK or Coeliac Society of Ireland is cited. Call ahead to confirm the separate menu is still available and to ask about cross-contamination practices.

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.
The Rusty Keg is listed as 'Vegan Friendly' on dishcult alongside other cuisines, but no separate vegan menu or dedicated vegan options are described in the cited sources. A standard menu includes an Impossible Burger and some salads, though these are served from a shared kitchen with extensive meat, dairy, and egg items. Vegan diners should ask staff about ingredient substitutions and cross-contamination risk; quality of accommodation may vary by shift.

The venue is flagged as 'Vegetarian Friendly' on dishcult, and the menu includes vegetarian items such as an Impossible Burger, grilled cheese, and salads. However, the sources provide no indication of a dedicated vegetarian menu, marked vegetarian items, or separate prep areas. The shared kitchen handles meat-heavy dishes, so vegetarian diners should confirm options upon ordering.
