Dietary-badge standard: GF, DF and Vegan badges appear only where current menu information supports those choices. A badge identifies available options and does not mean the kitchen is dedicated allergen-free.
Allergy & cross-contact caution: Menus, ingredients, suppliers, fryers, ovens, utensils and prep surfaces can change. Anyone with celiac disease or a serious food allergy should confirm current ingredients and preparation practices directly with the establishment before ordering.

Dietary Information Behind the Badges
The current menu explicitly marks gluten-free dishes and vegan dishes, and publishes vegan pizza add-ons including vegan cheese and proteins.
The restaurant publishes a dedicated vegan menu with vegan snacks, pizzas and other selections.
The current menu publishes a dedicated vegan doughnut selection and warns that products may come in contact with common allergens including dairy.
The current menu labels many flavors “No Gluten” and Vegan; plant-based flavors use non-dairy bases. Shared-shop allergen questions should still be confirmed directly.
The chain publishes gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan filters plus a cross-contact notice. Gluten-free granola is available, but the environment is not guaranteed allergen-free.
Current vegetarian-focused information supports extensive plant-based choices. Dairy ingredients are available in the operation, so allergy-specific preparation should be confirmed.
