Questions about The CAVALIER
Does The CAVALIER have gluten-free options?
No dish is marked 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 The CAVALIER coeliac friendly?
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 The CAVALIER online?
Yes, through OpenTable: http://www.opentable.com/restaurant/profile/109843/reserve?rid=109843&restref=109843
