Vegetarian items are marked (VEG) on the menu, and there are many veggie dishes, but the kitchen is shared and some vegetarian items are fried in peanut oil. Good selection for vegetarians who are fine with shared equipment.

marked menu

Pescatarian

C
confidence 50%
Best effort ·what tier C means

The menu has several vegetarian dishes and some fish items (e.g., shrimp platter, grilled salmon wrap). Peskies should be able to find a meal, but the menu is not marked for pescatarian items (no fish-free symbols), and the kitchen is shared. Ask staff about your needs.

Vegan

C
confidence 45%
Best effort ·what tier C means

Several vegetarian items like the falafel platter and hummus dishes are likely vegan, but the menu does not mark vegan items and the falafel is fried in peanut oil. Vegan diners should check with staff and confirm no dairy of honey in specific dishes.

Keto

C
confidence 40%
Best effort ·what tier C means

The menu includes meat, fish, and salad options that could suit a keto diet, but no keto-specific labels or macros are provided. Staff can help identify low-carb ingredients.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

E
confidence 35%
Limited information ·what tier E means

One dessert is described as 'gluten free dessert in a box', but the menu lacks consistent GF marking, the kitchen is shared, and no dedicated fryer or prep area is mentioned. Call ahead to confirm what items are reliably gluten free and how cross-contamination is managed.

Dairy-free

E
confidence 30%
Limited information ·what tier E means

The menu has many dairy-containing items, including feta, cheese, tzatziki, and butter, but no dairy-free symbols and no allergen advisory for dairy cross-contact. A thin signal only: there are likely some items without dairy, but kitchen practice is unassessed. Calling ahead is advised.

Halal

E
confidence 30%
Limited information ·what tier E means

Mazaya Cafe offers Middle Eastern cuisine that could be halal-friendly, but the menu does not state halal certification or sourcing. This thin signal suggests a call to the venue for clarification.

Egg-free

E
confidence 25%
Limited information ·what tier E means

The menu has no egg-free markings and no egg allergen advisory. Salad and some desserts likely contain egg, but no kitchen practice information is available. Call ahead to confirm.

Shellfish-free

E
confidence 25%
Limited information ·what tier E means

The menu includes shrimp items but does not mark shellfish-free options or provide cross-contact advisories. Call ahead to discuss needs with staff.

Soy-free

E
confidence 20%
Limited information ·what tier E means

No menu items are marked soy-free and no soy advisory is present. Soy may be present in sauces, dressings, or fried foods. Call ahead to discuss suitability.

Kosher

E
confidence 20%
Limited information ·what tier E means

No kosher symbols, certification, or kosher-friendly menu mentions are on the menu. The cuisine style includes dairy and meat combinations, so kosher practice is not indicated. Call ahead to ask about possibilities.

Low-FODMAP

E
confidence 20%
Limited information ·what tier E means

The menu does not mention low-FODMAP options and includes several high-FODMAP items, such as onion, garlic, wheat, and legumes. Call ahead to find out if any dishes can be adapted.

Sugar-free

E

Limited information ·what tier E means

Nut-free

D
confidence 70%
Not recommended ·what tier D means

The menu lists multiple items explicitly fried in peanut oil, such as falafel and Greek fries, and does not mention a dedicated fryer or any nut-free options. Because peanut oil is used routinely for fried foods, the kitchen is not recommended for a person with peanut or tree nut anaphylaxis.

Honest caveat: Multiple menu items are fried in peanut oil with no dedicated fryer or cross-contact mitigation stated; not safe for peanut allergy.
