14 regulated allergens
| Allergen | Status | How we handle it |
|---|---|---|
| Cereals containing gluten | In our kitchen | Wheat is in our naans, chapatis, samosa pastry, bhaji batter and thickens some curry bases. Barley, rye and oats are not used as ingredients but may be present in supplier facilities. |
| Crustaceans | In some dishes | King prawns and prawns feature in named seafood dishes only (e.g. Tandoori King Prawn, Prawn Jalfrezi). Prepared with dedicated utensils where possible. |
| Eggs | In some dishes | Used in some breads, biryani finishes and select desserts. Ask and we will confirm dish by dish. |
| Fish | In some dishes | Only in named fish curries and starters. We do not use fish sauce or paste in vegetable or meat curries. |
| Peanuts | Not used | We do not cook with peanuts. Suppliers may handle peanuts in their facilities, so trace contamination cannot be guaranteed against. |
| Soybeans | In some dishes | Soybean or rapeseed blends are used for frying. Soy sauce is not used in our curries. |
| Milk | In our kitchen | Yogurt, ghee, butter, cream and paneer feature widely — in marinades, korma-style curries, naans and raita. Many dishes can be prepared dairy-free on request. |
| Nuts (tree nuts) | In some dishes | Our whole kitchen cooks nut-free — no peanuts, cashews, almonds, pistachios, nut pastes, nut oils or ground nuts are used as ingredients in any dish, including korma and our sweet naan. We took nuts off the menu on purpose so nut-allergy guests get the full menu. Supplier factories still handle nuts, so trace nuts cannot be guaranteed against — always tell us about a nut allergy before ordering, and call us to confirm if you order online. |
| Celery | In some dishes | Occasionally used in stocks and select vegetable preparations. Tell us if you need it fully avoided. |
| Mustard | In our kitchen | Mustard seeds and mustard oil are common tempering ingredients in South Asian cooking and appear across our menu. |
| Sesame seeds | In some dishes | Sesame appears on some breads and in specific chutneys. Ask before ordering if you need it avoided. |
| Sulphur dioxide & sulphites (>10 mg/kg) | In some dishes | May be present in dried fruits, pickles, some vinegars and prepared sauces we buy in. |
| Lupin | Not used | Not used as an ingredient in our kitchen. |
| Molluscs | Not used | Not used as an ingredient in our kitchen (no mussels, oysters, squid or similar). |
