Wagamama
Wagamama has a separate gluten-free menu with clearly marked items, and staff are trained to involve a manager for coeliac orders. The kitchen is shared, but dedicated fryers and cleaning protocols are reported. However, the chain-level warning about cross-contact risk and the fact that popular items like katsu curry and soba noodles are not gluten-free mean caution is needed. Always confirm with the manager on duty.

Honest caveat: Multiple sources note that Wagamama is a shared kitchen chain with high cross-contact risk; the FindMeGlutenFree page explicitly warns it may not be safe for coeliac disease.

Wagamama has a separate vegan menu with clearly labelled dishes, and staff are reported to understand veganism. The kitchen is shared with meat and dairy, so cross-contact is possible. The chain committed to 50% vegan dishes by 2021, and an online dietary filter and allergen guide are available. Confirm with staff for strict vegan needs.
Honest caveat: Some reviewers noted that vegan sorbet desserts were discontinued, and the venue serves meat, so shared kitchen cross-contact is a risk.
