Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

Spinach guide reports the venue offers vegan options including vegan haggis topped nachos and falafel patties for burgers, but notes the bun contains egg and milk so must be ordered without. Staff are described as having a basic understanding of vegan needs, though some users reported staff aren't always sure about ingredients. The venue's own website does not mention vegan options. This suggests a marked menu (via Spinach) but shared kitchen with cross-contamination risk.

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

The venue's own website does not mention gluten-free options. The Edinburgh Live article notes the pub reopened after a fire but gives no dietary detail. The Tolbooth Tavern (a different venue) has a gluten-free menu but explicitly states no dedicated fryer or allergen-free zone. The Royal Mile Tavern itself has no evidence of a marked menu, dedicated equipment, or staff training for coeliac safety. A single aggregator listing for a different venue (Frasers Fish & Chips) mentions Coeliac UK accreditation, but that is not this venue. Based on the available sources, the Royal Mile Tavern appears to offer gluten-free options only on request, with no structural safeguards.
