Celiac safety assessment and key features

68%

Mr Bumbles Cafe feels like that cozy neighborhood spot where the staff genuinely tries to look out for gluten-free guests. While it's not a dedicated gluten-free facility, they've made real efforts—think separate tins for toasting bread and refusing to use shared knives if you flag an allergy. The menu marks gluten-free options clearly, and there's a reassuring attention to detail when you speak up about your needs. Still, with a shared kitchen, there's always that small flutter of worry for celiacs, but the team’s awareness helps ease it just a bit.
