One number, and you can always see how we got there
The score sums up what visitors with coeliac disease experienced, what the menu says and what public data records. Below you can play with those three sources yourself and watch the number move.
What the number means
Four verdicts, so you never have to do the arithmetic.
- GoodStrong, consistent signals that eating gluten-free works well here.
- Take careGluten-free is possible, but with caveats — ask questions.
- RiskNot enough, or conflicting, signals about gluten safety.
- UnknownToo little evidence for a reliable score.

Good
You can eat gluten-free here with confidence — still mention your coeliac disease when you order.
Sources that confirm each other lift the number quickly. A fully gluten-free kitchen is the strongest signal there is.
A source that says nothing does not count as a zero: it drops out of the sum, and the remaining sources weigh more heavily. This is a simplified view — the real score also accounts for how recent and how numerous the experiences are.
Why visitors weigh heaviest
A menu tells you what a venue intends. A visitor tells you what actually happened in the kitchen. That is why the number moves as soon as the first experiences come in.
Community reviews
Experiences from diners, many of them with coeliac disease, with a structured score and allergen tags. Our own reviews only — never taken from other platforms.
Menu scan
Facts from the menu, summarised in our own words: is there a gluten-free menu, separate preparation, gluten-free beer? Never verbatim menu text.
Open data (OpenStreetMap)
Address, cuisine and diet tags such as diet:gluten_free. Refreshed weekly, so closed or changed venues show up quickly.
Your experience changes the number straight away
One review from someone with coeliac disease says more than everything we can read off a website. Writing it takes a minute.

Frequently asked questions
Tap a question to see the answer.
Can a venue buy its score, or have it removed?
No. We accept no payment for a place or a number, and we do not take scores down on request. If something is factually wrong, we correct it after checking.
How often is a score updated?
Immediately with every new review. We re-check the menu and open data periodically; the date of the last check is on every venue page.
Why does a venue without reviews have a number at all?
Then we work from the menu and open data only, and we say that experiences are missing. Such a score can shift considerably as soon as the first visitor shares something.
Do reviews from people without coeliac disease count too?
When you create an account you say whether you eat gluten-free and why. Only reviews from people with coeliac disease or gluten intolerance weigh into the score.
