ALLERGEN INFORMATION

Eating With Confidence at Mamma Margherita

At Mamma Margherita, we want every guest to enjoy their meal with complete peace of mind. We take food allergies and dietary requirements seriously, and we are committed to providing clear, accurate information to help you make safe and confident choices when dining with us.

​

Our Approach to Allergens

We handle all 14 major allergens as defined by UK law and are transparent about the ingredients we use.
These include:

1. Celery

2. Cereals containing gluten

3. Crustaceans

4. Eggs

5. Fish

6. Lupin

7. Milk

8. Molluscs

9. Mustard

10. Nuts

11. Peanuts

12. Sesame

13. Soya

14. Sulphur dioxide / sulphites

If you have an allergy or intolerance, please inform a member of our team before ordering. We are always happy to guide you through the menu and suggest suitable options.

​

Cross-Contamination Notice

Although we take every reasonable precaution, our kitchen is a busy environment and allergens are present throughout the premises.
This means we cannot guarantee that any dish is completely free from traces of allergens, due to potential cross-contamination during:

• Preparation

• Cooking

• Storage

• Use of shared equipment

We prepare all pizzas in a traditional open kitchen and flour dusting is used in the dough-making process, meaning wheat/gluten is always airborne.

If you have a severe allergy or require absolute allergen-free food, please speak to us directly before ordering — your safety is our priority.

​

Menu & Allergen Sheets

We provide an up-to-date allergen chart for all our dishes, including:

• Pizza

• Pasta (if applicable)

• Starters & sides

• Desserts

• Drinks where allergen-relevant

Our allergen matrix identifies which of the 14 major allergens are present in each menu item.

👉 Ask any member of our team to see the full allergen sheet.
Alternatively, we can email it to you on request.

​

Vegan, Vegetarian & Gluten-Free Options

We offer a selection of dishes suitable for different dietary needs, including:

• Vegetarian options

• Vegan cheese (if applicable)

• Gluten-free pizza base (if offered – let me know if you want this included or removed)

Important: Even if a gluten-free base is available, it is prepared in an environment where wheat flour is present, so cross-contamination is unavoidable.

​

Changes & Customisations

If you would like a dish modified to avoid a specific allergen, we will do our best to accommodate you.
However, please note:

• Removing an ingredient does not eliminate the risk of trace allergens

• Some dishes cannot be adapted safely

Our team will always advise you honestly.

​

Your Safety Matters

We are dedicated to:

• Keeping our allergen information accurate and up to date

• Training our staff in allergen awareness

• Making sure every guest feels safe, welcome, and confident when dining with us
