Listed on FindMeGlutenFree and HappyCow as a gluten-free-friendly venue, with gluten-free items (risotto, curry) marked on a shared-kitchen menu. Celiac Australia and Coeliac UK are not involved. A review on spinach.guide states options are suitable for celiac diners but the FindMeGlutenFree disclaimer explicitly says the kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free and may not be safe for coeliac disease. The sole user review on several aggregators reports no reaction, but the venue's own pages never address gluten handling. Call ahead to discuss your needs directly with the kitchen.
