Questions about Tonkotsu

Does Tonkotsu have gluten-free options?

No dish is marked gluten free as served, from the menu read 10 Nov 2026. Each dish shows whether the venue labelled it or it was read from the ingredients.

Is Tonkotsu coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “Venue allergen notice: "Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to guarantee our busy kitchens are 100% free of allergens or cross…”. 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.
