Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Give us break and shift times
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Send round an allergy question
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic in the car park or yard.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
