⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• This is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contamination risk exists. Staff and managers are repeatedly described as taking steps to minimize risk, but the facility itself handles gluten-containing and gluten-free items in the same kitchen.
• The official allergen guidance indicates a gluten-sensitive approach rather than guaranteed gluten-free safety, so a cautious, proactive approach with staff (e.g., explicit requests for separate utensils/gloves and separate preparation) is prudent.
• Individual experiences vary; several recent diners report excellent management attention and careful handling, while older experiences show fewer options and occasional inconsistencies. Overall, recent safety signals are strong, but personal comfort with risk will vary.
