Amorino

confidence 80% ·

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.

All Amorino sorbets have held active Vegan Society certification since 2015. The chain offers clearly marked vegan sorbet options, and staff at several branches can identify them. Gelato bases contain milk and eggs, so only the sorbets are suitable for vegans.

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

Amorino's gelato and sorbets were reformulated to be gluten-free in 2017, and many branches post allergen charts or QR codes. Staff at some locations follow a cross-contamination protocol (clean scoops, fresh gloves, scooping from the untouched centre of tubs), but training consistency varies by branch. The chain shares rinsing water for scoops and some locations keep gluten-containing cones in the same prep area, so risk of cross-contact is real. Ask for a fresh scoop from an unopened tub and confirm the cone you receive is the GF variety.

Honest caveat: Multiple reviews across different branches report inconsistent staff knowledge about coeliac safety, and the chain-level warning flags high cross-contact risk for coeliac diners.
