Our Chef will be able to make a special meal for you. (Food businesses must offer you allergen information, but are not required to offer you a different meal to suit your need.)
• Be very clear about your allergy/intolerance and give examples of the foods that make you ill.
• We understand your needs and are always willing to cater to your food intolerances.
• Ask how the food is handled and cooked, and whether there is a chance of cross- contamination from cooking equipment or ingredients.
• Check allergen information is accurate. Has there been a last-minute recipe change or ingredient substitution?
• We do serve complex dishes, as allergens could be less obvious or hidden so ALWAYS ask if you have a food allergy or intolerance.
