Piqniq

Piqniq is explicitly not a dedicated gluten-free venue but has a clearly marked menu indicating which items are standard GF and which can be made GF; a wooden 'allergen cube' system is used to flag coeliac diners to staff, and multiple coeliac reviewers report no symptoms. However, fryer status is contradicted across sources (one community report notes a dedicated fryer, two others note no dedicated fryer), and one reviewer flagged that staff served non-GF-certified oat milk in coffee without recognising the risk.

Dairy-free

confidence 0.45 ·

Available on request, No marked menu but staff will accommodate. Quality varies by who is working that shift.

A small number of community sources mention Piqniq as 'good for dairy-free' and one reviewer describes it as accommodating for both gluten and dairy restrictions; however one reviewer with a 'severe dairy allergy' reported that cream cheese was placed in their food after they had flagged the allergy, indicating inconsistent handling. No marked dairy-free menu is evidenced.
