We take allergens very seriously. While we strive to accommodate all allergy requests, please be aware that our kitchen handles a wide range of ingredients and we cannot guarantee a completely allergen-free environment due to the risk of cross-contamination.

Some of our dishes can be made gluten-free. However, as our kitchen is not a dedicated gluten-free environment, there is a risk of cross-contamination. Please speak to our team before ordering and we'll advise on the safest options for you.
