Verifiably safe ·what tier A+ means

Venn Canteen is 100% plant-based and fully vegan. The kitchen uses no animal products whatsoever. The menu changes weekly, relying on seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. The venue does not carry any formal vegan certification, such as the Vegan Society Trademark. Multiple independent sources confirm that the restaurant is entirely vegan by philosophy and practice. No animal-derived ingredients are present on the premises. Cross-contact risks are not addressed explicitly, but the kitchen is inherently free of animal allergens. Dairy, egg, honey, and other animal-based allergens are structurally absent.

Soy-free

E
confidence 60%
Limited information ·what tier E means

Soy is used in several dishes (tamari marinade, fermented bean base). The menu marks these items with a 'SO' code. No soy-free alternatives or dedicated equipment are mentioned. Call ahead to discuss whether a soy-free meal can be accommodated.

Honest caveat: Soy (coded 'SO') is present in multiple dishes including the king oyster mushroom (tamari-based) and fermented beans; shared kitchen cross-contact risk is real.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

E
confidence 45%
Limited information ·what tier E means

The menu tags a few desserts and a beetroot carpaccio as 'gluten free' (via a third-party aggregator), and the official menu uses a 'G' code to indicate gluten in certain dishes. However, the kitchen is shared, no dedicated equipment or fryer is noted, and no coeliac-specific training or accreditation is mentioned. Cross-contact risk is present. Call ahead to discuss your needs with the chef before visiting.

Honest caveat: The official menu marks many dishes with a 'G' (gluten) code, and the kitchen is shared among all dishes; some items explicitly contain kamut pasta and other gluten sources. No coeliac accreditation or allergen management protocols are stated.

Nut-free

D
confidence 60%
Not recommended ·what tier D means

The official menu labels dishes with codes for 'N nuts', 'P peanuts', and lists nut-based ingredients (macadamia in cheesecake, almond and walnut in other items). The kitchen uses nuts extensively — the venue is not nut-avoidant. No dedicated preparation area for nut-free orders is mentioned. If you have a nut allergy, this is not a suitable venue without a detailed conversation with the chef.

Honest caveat: Nuts (macadamia, almond, walnut, peanut) are explicitly listed on the menu and appear in several dishes; cross-contact risk is high as all dishes are prepared in a shared kitchen.
