Pieminister
Pieminister offers a separate gluten-free menu with several pie options (meat, chicken, veggie), gluten-free gravy, and sides. Staff are generally knowledgeable and will flag GF food, change gloves, and use separate trays. However, the kitchen is shared: GF pies are cooked in the same oven as regular pies (on a separate tray or top rack), and some locations warn that sides may carry cross-contamination risk. A few coeliac reviewers report no symptoms, but others note the shared oven and small kitchen as concerns. Not a dedicated GF facility.

Pieminister has multiple vegan pie options (e.g. Mooless Moo, Chana Rama, Mock-A-Doodle), vegan gravy, and vegan mash available on request. Vegan cheese and a vegan dessert (pecan pie sundae) are also offered. The menu is clearly labelled. However, the kitchen is shared and pies are cooked in the same oven as non-vegan items, so cross-contamination is possible. HappyCow reviewers confirm good vegan choices but note limited variety at times.

Dairy-free

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.
Some menu items are marked as dairy-free or can be adapted (e.g. vegan mash, vegan cheese). However, there is no dedicated dairy-free preparation area, and many pies contain dairy (cheese mash, butter in peas). Staff can advise on dairy-free options but cross-contamination risk is present. A few FindMeGlutenFree reviews mention 'good for dairy-free' but no structural safeguards are documented.
