Love the food BUT if it’s busy they put everything in the same fryer. Found out by accident about that. You need to check and double check what the cooking situation is like before ordering as it’s nearly always busy!

Staff seem knowledgeable about allergens & not a problem to ask for gf options. Gf alternatives available. Gf clearly highlighted on the menu, but would always recommend highlighting the allergy to the staff to avoid contamination risk. Never felt unwell after eating here

Ordered a gluten free meal and ended up being gluten poisoned. I think their kitchens too small to make sure cross contamination doesn’t happen

My partner has leaky gut syndrome and we LOVE The Early Bird. It’s a brunch spot, so a good combo of traditional breakfasts and funky sandwiches. They have so many GF and vegan options, being able to swap out most bread to GF and having the GF options clearly marked on the menu. GF sausages too! Super tasty, super trendy, and lovely staff.
