GOSTILNA VIDA

Vegan dishes are clearly marked on the menu with a leaf symbol, and multiple vegan diners report excellent, well-prepared options across starters, mains, and desserts. The kitchen has a dedicated vegan chef who knows how to prepare plant-based food. However, this is a shared kitchen that also serves meat, fish, and dairy dishes. HappyCow notes a community report that labelling may possibly be inaccurate, so double-check with staff. The restaurant offers oat milk for coffee and can veganise some vegetarian items on request.

Per-allergen evidence

Vegan

confidence 75% ·

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.

Vegetarian

confidence 70% ·

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

The menu includes several vegetarian dishes (burrata, gnocchi, njoki, etc.) and items can be adjusted. The kitchen serves meat and fish, so not a dedicated vegetarian setup. Vegetarian items are not explicitly marked on the menu, but staff are accommodating.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 55% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

A local blog mentions the restaurant has something for coeliac guests, and the menu includes soba (buckwheat) noodles which are naturally gluten-free. However, no dedicated gluten-free kitchen, no marked GF items on the menu, and the kitchen is shared with wheat-containing dishes. HappyCow notes labelling may be inaccurate. Best to call ahead and confirm which dishes can be made coeliac-safe.

Dairy-free

confidence 55% ·

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.

The Spotted by Locals blogger mentions being lactose intolerant and finding the restaurant accommodating. Some dishes contain dairy (burrata, creme fraiche, parmesan, panna cotta), but several vegan dishes are dairy-free. No marked DF items or dedicated equipment. Staff can advise on a case-by-case basis.
