The Cheeky Piglet

Gluten-free bread is available as a paid upgrade (+€1.50) on most dishes, and a dedicated Gluten-Free Fruit Scone and Peroni Gluten-Free beer are listed. However, the menu explicitly states 'it is not possible to guarantee no cross-contamination', and the kitchen handles wheat in nearly every dish; no dedicated fryer or prep area is mentioned.

Gluten-free bread is available as a paid upgrade (+€1.50) on most dishes, and a dedicated Gluten-Free Fruit Scone and Peroni Gluten-Free beer are listed. However, the menu explicitly states 'it is not possible to guarantee no cross-contamination', and the kitchen handles wheat in nearly every dish; no dedicated fryer or prep area is mentioned.

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

A dedicated 'Vegan Cheeky Plant It' burger and a 'Vegan Gluten Free Chocolate & Coconut Tart' are listed; non-dairy milk alternatives (almond, coconut, oat) are available for all hot drinks. However, the 'Vegan Gluten Free Chocolate & Coconut Tart' notes 'May contain traces of 2 [Milk]', non-dairy milk costs extra suggesting dairy is the default, and the menu disclaimer confirms cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed in this shared kitchen.

Vegetarian

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

Several vegetarian options are present and identifiable on the marked menu (AvoEgg Toast, Piglet Omelette, Fruit & Yoghurt Bowl, pastries, egg-based sides), and the Eggs Benedict offers a 'Go Veggie' swap with Vegan Sausage. The kitchen is shared with meat products throughout, so cross-contamination cannot be ruled out.

Dairy-free

confidence 0.65 ·

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

Dairy (allergen code 2) appears in the vast majority of menu items; non-dairy milk alternatives are available for drinks (+€0.70) and a small number of dishes are naturally dairy-free. The menu allergen disclaimer explicitly warns cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed in this shared kitchen.

Egg-free

confidence 0.65 ·

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

Eggs (allergen code 5) are a core ingredient throughout the menu — in the Full Irish, Brekkie Bap, Eggs Benedict, Omelette, Pancakes, pastries, and hollandaise sauce. The allergen-coded menu allows identification of egg-containing items, but the shared kitchen means cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed.

marked menu

Soy-free

confidence 0.65 ·

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

Soy/soybeans (allergen code 8) appears in vegan sausages, barbecue sauce, several breads, and multiple pastries; many items carry 'may contain soybeans' warnings. The allergen-coded menu allows items to be identified, but the shared kitchen means cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed.

marked menu

Halal

confidence 0.55 ·

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

Two dishes explicitly label their chicken as 'Halal' (Chicken Wrap and Chicken Caesar Salad), indicating some halal-sourced protein is used. However, the menu also features pork extensively (sausages, bacon, black and white pudding, pork neck sambo, mortadella) and alcohol is served, so the kitchen is not halal-compliant overall; only specific ingredients are halal-sourced.

marked menu

Pescatarian

confidence 0.60 ·

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

Smoked Salmon is available as an add-on and fish allergen (code 6) appears on the menu; the kitchen handles meat extensively but the allergen-coded menu allows pescatarians to identify safe options. No dedicated prep area is mentioned and cross-contamination cannot be guaranteed.

marked menu

Nut-free

confidence 0.75 ·

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

Nuts are pervasive across the menu: pistachios in the Mortadella sandwich, hazelnuts in Nutella-based desserts and Kinder Bueno Cheesecake, almonds/cashews/walnuts/hazelnuts in the Vegan Gluten Free Tart, peanut butter on Banana Bread, cashews in Basil Pesto, and almond milk as a standard non-dairy option. The menu disclaimer explicitly states 'it is not possible to guarantee no cross-contamination', making this kitchen inappropriate for nut-anaphylaxis diners.
