confidence 70%
Strongly trusted ·what tier A means

A staff member with coeliac disease works here, which provides insider-led knowledge (source: multiple reviews on FindMeGlutenFree). Gluten-free items are marked on the menu. However, the kitchen is not dedicated; fryers are shared (multiple reviews cite no dedicated fryer). Staff proactively warn about cross-contamination risks. Some pre-made pastries may contain gluten (one reported glutening). Tapioca crepes and cheese bread sandwiches are generally considered safe by many symptomatic coeliacs, but cross-contamination risk exists for fried items and pre-made goods.

Honest caveat: Fried items (fries) share a fryer; pre-made bakery items may contain gluten and have caused a reaction in at least one reported instance.
