🍽️ What you can eat here

Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free bases: All Romana and Classic pizzas can be ordered on a gluten-free base (made in a dedicated gluten-free bakery) and served with a GF indicator surface.
  • Dough Balls: Gluten-free Dough Balls are available, and there are GF variations like Dough Balls Al Forno that are suitable for coeliacs when served with GF Dough Balls.
  • Pasta: Several pastas can be made GF when served with gluten-free Fusilli (examples include Bolognese, Creamy Pesto, and Napoletana).
  • Other GF items: A wide range of GF desserts and GF sides are indicated across the menu, and GF beverages (including some gluten-free beer options) are noted in the offerings.
  • Serving practices: GF pizzas and other GF dishes are typically served on color-coded or clearly labeled dishware or trays to prevent mix-ups; a dedicated GF serving process is referenced in multiple sources.
  • Size options: There are two GF pizza base sizes available (smaller and larger bases) to accommodate different appetites.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility. This means cross-contamination risk exists in principle, depending on kitchen workflows and oven use.
  • However, there are numerous strong signals of precaution: established allergen information, color-coding and separate serving methods for GF items, and frequent references to Coeliac UK accreditation and separate prep practices.
  • A few reviews note that ovens may be shared, with staff assuring measures are in place; as with any shared-kitchen setting, ongoing diligence from staff and clear communication from diners remain important.
  • Overall, the balance of recent experiences suggests careful handling and reliable GF practices, but diners should still confirm current procedures upon arrival and communicate any severe sensitivities.
