Per-allergen evidence

Vegetarian

confidence 90% ·

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

confidence 75% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

Cafe Flora marks items GF on the menu and uses a dedicated gluten-free fryer, but shares a kitchen with gluten-containing dishes. Staff are generally knowledgeable (some are coeliac themselves) and flag orders with a coeliac button. However, multiple community reviews report cross-contamination reactions, including from items marked gluten-free. Safer for gluten-sensitive diners willing to confirm with staff; those with coeliac disease should exercise caution.

Honest caveat: Multiple FindMeGlutenFree reviewers report getting glutened: ‘I did get gluted’ and staff ‘do not care about cross contamination’ (source aggregator-findmeglutenfree-com-1).

Vegan

confidence 60% ·

Reliable, Allergen-marked menu with aware staff, served from a shared kitchen. Cross-contamination risk is acknowledged but the venue has clear options.

Items are clearly labelled vegan on the menu, and the kitchen is vegetarian-first but accommodates vegan modifications. A community reviewer notes that staff can leave off seeds or other extras on request. No dedicated vegan equipment is reported; shared kitchen with dairy and egg means cross-contact is possible but the marked menu helps.
