Mildreds Soho is an entirely plant-based restaurant with no fish or seafood on the premises; the full published menu confirms no fish or shellfish ingredients.

Nut-free

confidence 0.60 ·

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

Tree nuts appear throughout the menu (smoked almonds, cashews, pistachios, peanuts, crushed peanuts in the laksa, pistachio cream in desserts); the venue links to a full allergen menu but operates a shared kitchen with no dedicated nut-free prep area noted. Not appropriate for severe nut anaphylaxis.

Dairy-free

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

The venue is entirely plant-based so dairy-derived animal milks and cheeses are absent; however, the menu uses vegan 'cheez', 'cream', 'yogurt', 'ice cream' and similar plant-based analogues which may contain soy, coconut, or nut milks. One FMGF reviewer specifically praised it as 'good for dairy-free', and the allergen link on the venue website allows per-dish allergen checks. Shared kitchen means residual cross-contact risk cannot be ruled out.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

Not appropriate, Documented unsafe, multiple negative reports, or refuses to accommodate. Surfaced to warn rather than recommend.

Mildreds Soho is not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen and has no dedicated fryer; gluten-containing items such as sourdough flatbread, panko-crumbed starters, and wheat-based breads appear on the menu alongside items marked gluten-free. Shared prep environment means cross-contamination risk is acknowledged by the venue's own allergen link and community reporters.

Honest caveat: Two independent self-identified coeliac reviewers on FindMeGlutenFree report being glutened after eating here despite flagging their need to staff.
