Food Allergies & Intolerances at Finch Bar & Eatery

Your safety is our priority. At Finch, we take food allergies and intolerances seriously.

Tell Us Before You Order

If you or someone in your group has a food allergy or intolerance, please speak to a member of our team before placing your order. We’ll provide all the information you need to make a safe and informed choice.

Even with the greatest care, our kitchen handles all 14 allergens, and we cannot guarantee the complete absence of allergens in our dishes due to shared preparation areas.

  • Clear allergen labelling on pre-packed items
  • Well-trained staff who understand how to handle allergy-related queries
  • Strict procedures to prevent cross-contamination
  • Up-to-date allergen information for all dishes on our menu
