Makars Mash Bar
Makars explicitly promotes gluten-free options on its homepage, including house-made GF Scotch eggs and GF sticky toffee pudding. A coeliac blog reviewer (Gluten Interrupted) praises 'excellent knowledge on cross contamination' and the dessert menu. The Allergy Companions search snippet notes 'a lot of the main menu had gluten free' options and all puddings were gluten free. However, this is a mixed kitchen (meat dishes including haggis, shared prep environment implied) with no mention of a dedicated fryer or dedicated prep area for gluten-free dishes, and no accreditation. Cross-contamination risk must be assumed.
