Tempero

Tempero is strongly trusted for coeliac safety. The chef personally discusses dietary needs with each table, and the kitchen uses a dedicated gluten-free fryer, changing the oil for coeliac guests. Multiple reviews from coeliac diners report knowledgeable staff and zero reactions. Almost the entire menu is gluten-free by design, rooted in Latin American cuisine that naturally avoids wheat. The venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, but the chef-led, personalised approach and dedicated fryer provide a high level of care.

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

Honest caveat: The venue is not a dedicated gluten-free facility; cross-contamination is possible in the shared kitchen.

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

Dairy-free options are available, and the chef will accommodate dietary needs when informed. A review on the venue's own site notes 'lots of options for those of us that are gluten and dairy free.' The First Table listing also mentions dairy-free options. However, there is no evidence of a dedicated fryer or separate prep area for dairy, and the menu is not marked for dairy allergens. Best to confirm with the chef when booking.
