Questions about Oak + Violet
Does Oak + Violet have gluten-free options?
Yes: 1 dish is gluten free as served, from the menu read 11 Nov 2026. Each dish shows whether the venue labelled it or it was read from the ingredients.
Is Oak + Violet coeliac friendly?
The venue notes: “While we offer gluten-free menu options, we are not a gluten-free kitchen.”. 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.
Can I book Oak + Violet online?
Yes, through Book online: https://res.windsurfercrs.com/ibe/index.aspx?propertyID=15280&nono=1&lang=en-us
