Per-allergen evidence
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.
