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 The Paddo Tavern

Does The Paddo Tavern have gluten-free options?

Yes: 8 dishes are gluten free as served, and 16 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 The Paddo Tavern coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “Warm Apple & Rhubarb Cake and Mud Cake carry DF labels but list cream in their descriptions, so dairy is left unknown for both.”. 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.
