Per-allergen evidence
Lela's Eatery offers a few vegan options, including an explicitly named 'VEGAN BREAKFAST' dish (scrambled tofu) on the menu. HappyCow categorises it as 'Veg-options (Lacto/Ovo)' and notes 'vegan options available'. However, the kitchen also serves meat and dairy (eggs, cheese, bacon, chicken). Multiple vegan diners have reported that labelled vegan items may contain dairy — a reviewer noted the homemade coconut yogurt uses a dairy milk starter (not vegan), another found butter on avocado toast, and a third reported creamy non-vegan dressing on the side salad. Staff knowledge is praised by some but contradicted by others. There is no dedicated vegan prep area or fryer.
