Almost all daily dishes and soups are gluten-free, marked with a *G on the menu.
Per-allergen evidence
Almost all daily dishes and soups are gluten-free, marked with a *G on the menu. Several coeliac or gluten-free reviewers report no symptoms and knowledgeable staff. A separate toaster is used for gluten-free toast. The kitchen is shared; one reviewer noted there is no dedicated kitchen. At least one older review mentions getting glutened. The menu is not 100% gluten-free across the board. One spinch tart has a gluten-free option rather than being always gluten-free, and a carrot cake was reported as not gluten-free. Given the strong positive signal from multiple coeliac diners, but also the shared kitchen and one historical incident, this is best classified as Tier A, strongly trusted but not a dedicated facility.
