⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The establishment is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk from shared equipment remains a possibility.
- Some cross-contact risks are acknowledged in external guidance about Costa’s allergen practices (e.g., shared milk steamers), though recent in-store experiences emphasize packaging of gluten-free toasties and allergen-book discussions with staff to mitigate risk.
- Procedural safeguards observed in recent experiences include serving gf toasties in sealed packaging and staff explaining allergen controls and dishwashing practices.
