Questions about Sawyer & Gray

Yes: 1 dish is gluten free as served, and 9 more can be made gluten free on request, from the menu read 10 Nov 2026. Each dish shows whether the venue labelled it or it was read from the ingredients.

Is Sawyer & Gray coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “While we do not have a dedicated gluten free kitchen we do offer cakes made with gluten free ingredients.”. 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.
