Allergen Menu
Ladle + Leaf
Location: San Francisco, CA
“The online menu gives the top 8 allergen warnings, which is very helpful! I have never had a problem here, but I stick to the soups and pre-packaged sandwiches. Nuts are used in the salads, but the salad area and soup area are fairly well separated at most locations I’ve been to. The Mexican Chicken Tortilla and the Grandma Mary’s Chicken Soup are great, and I always like the Turkey Bacon Avocado sandwich!”
Gibbys
Location: Montreal, Canada
“They have an allergy menu (top 8) for every item on the menu.”
CJ’s On The Bay
Location: Marco Island, FL
“The food here was delicious and they had an allergen menu that told you which foods didn’t contain your allergen for the top 8. This menu was super useful and I hope other restaurants begin to create them as well.”
Condado Tacos
Location: Dublin, OH
“They have a whole allergy menu and our waitress had food allergies herself and made sure everything was safe and did not send the food out until everything was okay. My food was sitting in the kitchen and she made them make a new one because there might have been some cross contamination and she was not comfortable bringing it out to me. Best service I ever had at the restaurant! The location in DUBLIN, OHIO is the one to go to. The food was awesome!”
Beyond the Top 8
Yard House
Location: Phoenix, AZ
“Michelle, the manager, was AMAZING! We had multiple people with multiple food allergies in our party and many of the allergens were non-top 8. They were able to accommodate us and went above and beyond to make sure we were safe and included!!”
Akai Hana
Location: Columbus, OH
“This is one of my favorite restaurants. I’ve been going there for a while, so they alway remember my order (sushi without sesame), but they are very proactive and knowledgeable about any food allergy concerns.”
Village Pottery Cafe
Location: Republic, MO
“I called ahead to ask if they could accommodate my son’s allergies, and she assured that they could…The chef herself ended up taking our order. She admitted to me that usually the chili would be diary free, but that morning a tiny bit of potato soup had spilled into the chili. We were very pleased with the attention given to our needs.”
Choolaah Indian BBQ
Location: Sterling, VA
“Choolah is a small chain counter service restaurant. Restaurant has a list of allergens that goes beyond the top 8. Allergen information is also available online. Customers can also have allergens entered into their system at time of purchase. ”
Far Away
Landbageriet
Location: Kobenhavn, Denmark
“Bakery with gluten free and vegan options. No peanuts or hazelnuts used in bakery, the only nut used is almonds (and possibly walnuts). They had all ingredients posted on the display so you can see exactly what is in each item! Gluten free items are separate from items containing wheat, but I believe they are baked in the same bakery.”
Trattoria ZaZa
Location: Florence, Italy
“My daughter had an amazing fruit smoothie, bruschetta, grilled chicken and potatoes, and mascarpone pudding. The tiramisu was not safe. Waitress read the package on the lady fingers for us!”
Malmo Chocolate Factory AB
Location: Radmansvangen, Sweden
“A completely nut-free chocolate factory! Their chocolates are also free of gluten and soy. I would highly recommend it to anyone with nut allergies that wants to buy fun flavors of chocolate!”
Far, Far Away
Poke Saigon
Location: Vietnam
“The poke was delicious and the menu was in English, making it really easy to tell what was and wasn’t gluten free. You choose a rice or salad base, add any toppings you want and then add a sauce. Hands down one of the best poke bowls I’ve ever had!! 😋”
Slappy Cakes
Location: Singapore
“This is a super cool make-your-own pancakes spot. You have a griddle in the center of the table and they give you squeeze bottles with pancake batter. I remember being a bit nervous about eating here, as they have a peanut butter batter option and many nut toppings. The table and griddle were well cleaned (and if I remember correctly we went ahead and wiped it down again just to be safe).”
Asilia Camps and Lodges
Location: Arusha, Tanzania
“Oliver’s camp in Tanzania is, aside from being one of the most beautiful places, extremely accommodating for special food requests and needs. It’s as if they’re waiting to focus on each patron’s requirements right when you walk in. ”
HOTEL
Ocean Reef Club
Location: Key Largo, Florida
“A lot of rooms in the inn have kitchens, and there is a grocery store on site. Everywhere we go, they are willing to accommodate and are so kind and helpful. For example, at the pool snack shack, my brother mentioned his peanut allergy and they sanitized the whole blender (despite the long line!!)”
Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort
Location: Thailand
“We called ahead to notify the resort that I had a peanut allergy. Once we got there, it was great — every meal, they checked with the kitchen to make sure there were no peanuts in my food, and even went so far to go through the menu on the first night to show me what did and did not have peanuts in it.”
Hotel President Wilson
Location: Geneve, Switzerland
“The staff at this hotel is very professional. Multiple languages including English is spoken if needed. We sent the allergy card ahead of our arrival which was noted to all staff. The chef made my daughter’s 14th birthday cake with no allergens in it. Highly recommend. Hospitality is impeccable.”
The Extra Mile
Osmosis Day Spa Sanctuary
Location: Freestone, California
“There is a form you fill out after you fill out after you make your reservation where they ask you about your allergies. Once I arrived, I spoke with my massage therapist about my nut allergy – as soon as I mentioned it, she mentioned that she had known from the form, and double checked with me to make sure that coconut is okay for me. She then went on to assure me that she read the ingredient labels and that she would only use coconut oil and a nut-free lotion. ”
LuLu’s Destin
Location: Destin, Florida
“This restaurant has raised the bar for expectations for other restaurants. They have an allergen menu, have the manager talk with you, take the order and deliver it. We love this place!”
Planet Pizza
Location: Greenwich, Connecticut
“They keep a list of our allergens linked to our phone number so they have them in their record any time we place an order!”
5A5 Steak Lounge
Location: San Francisco, California
“AMAZING. All of the wait staff have been incredibly receptive about my allergies! Even the bartender talked to me about my allergies and recommended a type of gin that is almond free. 💕”
