Olea Social

The venue publishes a dedicated 'GLUTEN-FREE' menu (Menu/217) alongside regular menus containing gluten-containing dishes (bread basket, pide/flatbreads, spaghetti, croquetas, etc.). Several main-menu dishes are individually noted as served 'with gluten-free bread' (chicken shish, lamb shish, mixed grill, lamb kofte). The cheese plate is offered 'with gluten-free bread'. This indicates allergen-aware menu marking and gluten-free bread availability, but it is a shared kitchen serving abundant gluten items with no claim of a dedicated fryer or prep area. Cross-contamination risk is inherent.

Pescatarian

confidence 0.65 ·

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

The menu offers a substantial fish and seafood section (seabream, monkfish, salmon, tiger prawn, prawn and crab spaghetti, octopus, smoked salmon, fried calamari) alongside clearly marked vegetarian/vegan options. Pescatarians have ample choice. However, individual dishes are not marked as pescatarian-safe, and the kitchen is shared with meat. No dedicated pescatarian labelling exists; assessment is inferred from menu structure.
