Marked menu + dedicated, Allergen-marked menu plus dedicated fryer / prep area. Staff trained. Not a fully dedicated kitchen.

Meli Cafe offers a separate gluten-free menu section with items like French toast, crepes, pancakes, and toast. Multiple recent coeliac diners report no symptoms and knowledgeable staff. The kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free; cross-contamination risk is acknowledged. Some older reviews (7-9 years ago) report glutening incidents, but recent positive reports from coeliac diners dominate. A dedicated toaster and dedicated fryer are reported by some reviewers, but not consistently across all locations or shifts.

Marked menu, shared, Allergen-marked menu and aware staff but shared fryer / prep. Cross-contamination risk acknowledged.

Meli Cafe has a 'Vegan & Gluten Free' section on the menu with items like pancakes, French toast, a wrap, and tofu scramble. However, multiple HappyCow reviews warn that some items listed as vegan may not be (e.g., non-vegan butter served, rolls for sliders not vegan, wrap not vegan per one server). Staff knowledge on vegan ingredients appears inconsistent. Cross-contamination with non-vegan items (e.g., butter) is a risk.

The menu includes vegetarian options like omelets and a tofu scramble. No dedicated vegetarian menu or specific protocols are mentioned. The venue serves meat, so vegetarian options are available but not a focus.

A 10-year-old review on FindMeGlutenFree mentions a child with a tree nut allergy felt unwell after eating here. No recent information on nut-free protocols is available. Accommodation would be on request with caution.

Some FindMeGlutenFree reviews mention the venue is 'good for dairy-free' and a reviewer noted the GF French toast is dairy-free (but contains egg whites). No dedicated dairy-free menu or protocols are mentioned. Accommodation appears to be on request.

No specific egg-free menu or protocols are mentioned in the sources. A reviewer noted the GF French toast contains egg whites, suggesting egg is commonly used. Accommodation would be on request.
