The Chester Arms offers a dedicated Gluten Free Menu and marks many dishes with a gluten-free icon. Items like Rustic Fries, Peroni GLUTEN FREE, and several mains are explicitly tagged. A customer testimonial praises the pub's ability to handle food intolerances. However, no details on dedicated fryers or prep areas are available, and the kitchen is shared. Cross-contamination risk is present but options are clear.

Vegan

B
confidence 65%

The pub has a dedicated vegan menu. On the main menu, a green leaf icon indicates vegan items, and sides like Rustic Fries marked VE, drinks including oat and soya lattes and many wines, and desserts such as Vanilla Cheesecake and Vegan Brownie are all clearly labelled. A testimonial notes their understanding of dietary needs. No dedicated kitchen equipment has been confirmed, and given the likely shared preparation space, cross-contamination remains possible although the pub clearly signposts the risk.

Dairy-free

confidence 60%

A dedicated Dairy Free menu is advertised. Items like Rustic Fries are explicitly labelled as '(Gluten & Dairy Free, VE)', and several other dishes also carry dairy-free notes. No information on separate prep or fryers is available. However, the clear menu marking and dedicated options suggest a reliable choice for dairy-free diners.

Vegetarian

confidence 55%

The menu uses a 'V' icon to mark vegetarian dishes, including Baked Feta Cheese (with GF option) and Halloumi Fries. There is no dedicated vegetarian menu mentioned, but the explicit marking makes options easy to identify. The kitchen is shared. Like other diets, cross-contamination is possible, but staff appear accommodating.
