The Piper's Rest

Gluten-free items are clearly marked on the menu (using GF or GF* codes), and the venue operates a dedicated gluten-free fryer with trained, knowledgeable staff who will clean the kitchen space or change gloves. Multiple symptomatic coeliac diners report no adverse reactions across several visits. However, the establishment is explicitly NOT a dedicated gluten-free facility, and cross-contamination risk remains present in the shared kitchen.
