Bivacco charges an additional $3 for a gluten-free pizza base. That base is available on three pizzas: Margherita, Mushroom, and Spicy Salami. The official menu marks those items with the only per-dish gluten-free notation visible. Multiple independent community reviews describe the staff as trained and accommodating. Calling ahead leads to a customised highlighted menu that the staff brings to the table. The restaurant does not have a dedicated gluten-free facility. Both FindMeGlutenFree and Atly explicitly note the risk of cross-contamination in a shared kitchen. One community reviewer reported that a coeliac dish arrived with breadcrumbs after the waiter failed to relay the allergy note to the kitchen. Two other symptomatic coeliac reviewers reported positive and safe experiences.
