🍽️ What you can eat here

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

✅ Reported safe options

  • Gluten-free pizza bases (Romana and Classic) used across pizzas.
  • Gluten-free pasta dishes (Bolognese, Creamy Pesto, Napoletana) when served with gluten-free Fusilli pasta.
  • Gluten-free Dough Balls (including Piccolo/GF variants).
  • Gluten-free desserts and treats (e.g., Chocolate Brownie; gelato and sorbet options).
  • Gluten-free beer options are mentioned in reviews as available.
  • Two GF pizza base sizes are available in some locations.

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

  • The restaurant is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so there remains an inherent cross-contamination risk in a shared kitchen.
  • However, multiple strong safety signals mitigate this risk: Coeliac UK accreditation references, explicit separate prep areas and utensils in practice, color-coded plates and purple cutters for GF foods, and a substantial allergen information framework.
  • Reviews show many guests with celiac disease dining successfully and safely, though isolated negative experiences exist (e.g., a single report of a sick reaction after takeaway in the past), underscoring that experiences can vary by location, timing, and adherence to safety practices.
  • Overall, the weight of recent positive experiences and formal safety signals suggests a high level of care, with some residual risk typical of a non-dedicated facility.
