Giraffe
Separate gluten-free menu offered across branches, with staff routinely asking about allergies and flagging orders for the kitchen; some sites use a tablet-based allergen menu. Most locations have shared prep — a Pimlico wait-staffer told one coeliac diner they cannot guarantee no cross-contamination and no dedicated fryer is available, though the (now permanently closed) Manchester Airport branch was reported to have a dedicated GF fryer and kitchen space. Multiple coeliac diners across all three branches report eating safely.
