What diners say

No diner ratings yet.

Ratings are diners’ own experience. They don’t make a dish safe; neither do we.

Where this comes from

Allergen answers come from the menu’s labels first, then the listed ingredients, then a model’s judgement checked when unsure. How allergen status is decided.

Questions about Ben's Cafe

Does Ben's Cafe have gluten-free options?

Yes: 1 dish is gluten free as served, and 10 more can be made gluten free on request, from the menu read 11 Nov 2026. Each dish shows whether the venue labelled it or it was read from the ingredients.

Is Ben's Cafe coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “Items marked * are printed with 'gluten free bread available' for an extra charge (dine-in $3.5, takeaway $2.5).”. Eatcrush reads each venue’s own menu and says where every answer came from. It never calls a dish safe: kitchens share fryers, boards and flour, and menus change. If you have coeliac disease or an allergy, confirm with staff before you order.
