Restaurant Polfareren

One review mentions the venue labels items, but reports that cereal under a 'gluten free' sign actually contained gluten. The FindMeGlutenFree listing states 'Reported NOT to have a gluten‑free menu' and 'No dedicated fryer'. A travel blog says staff can provide gluten-free options on request, but gives no detail on kitchen practice. The conflicting signals suggest thin and unreliable information; call ahead to discuss needs directly.

Limited information, Thin positive signal only: a stray menu callout, a single passing review mention, or generic dietary marketing without specifics. Not enough to assess kitchen practice. Call ahead and confirm before relying on it.

Honest caveat: A reviewer reported misleading signage: cereal under a 'gluten free' sign actually contained gluten.

Multiple sources agree the venue can prepare vegan dishes on advance request, with typically one vegan option per course. The menu is 'Poorly marked' and staff have only a 'Basic understanding' of vegan needs. Some users report vegan options aren't always available. This is limited information: the kitchen will try to accommodate but no structural practices are described.

The venue's own page and a travel blog state that vegetarian options can be customised on request. No menu marking, no dedicated kitchen, no staff training details. Limited information; call ahead to confirm current options and cross-contact practices.
