Bang Bang Cafe

The menu clearly marks vegan items with '(V)' and many dishes can be made vegan on request (e.g. Just Egg, tempeh bacon, Impossible Chorizo). Multiple HappyCow and SeattleVegan reviews confirm a wide range of vegan options including Shawn's Vegan Mac, vegan baked goods, and vegan breakfast burritos. However, the kitchen is not fully vegan (serves meat, dairy, eggs) and cross-contamination is possible. Tier C reflects a marked menu with dedicated vegan recipes but shared kitchen equipment.

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

The menu is heavily vegetarian-friendly with many items marked '(AV)' (available vegetarian) and clear vegan options. Multiple vegetarian options exist across breakfast, lunch, and bakery. However, the kitchen serves meat and fish, and shared prep areas mean cross-contamination is possible. Tier C reflects a marked menu with dedicated vegetarian recipes but shared equipment.

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

The venue's own menu marks several items with 'GF' (e.g. Chips & Dips, Nachos, Quiche) but includes a prominent disclaimer: 'Please note, GF does NOT indicate Celiac Safe. Please clearly state any allergies you have.' The kitchen is shared (flour tortillas, focaccia, croutons all contain gluten) and there is no dedicated gluten-free fryer or prep area mentioned. No accreditation or dedicated kitchen. Tier D reflects a marked menu with shared equipment and acknowledged cross-contamination risk.
