Where certain allergens are highlighted the allergen may relate to just one component of the dish, which may easily be substituted or removed. For more information please ask one of our crew.

We always advise you to mention any food allergies or intolerances when ordering. We are happy to provide allergy guidelines to support you in making your own menu choice; however, we cannot recommend or tell you what is suitable for you to eat or drink.

Allergies, Intolerances and Dietary Requirements - We actively manage the main fourteen allergens recognised by the Food Standards Agency (see below) but are unable to give information on allergens outside of this. We will, of course, do what we can to accommodate requests outside these fourteen, but these will be put through to the kitchen as a ‘request’ not an allergy order.

Cross Contamination - Our food is prepared in areas where cross contamination may also occur. This means that we can never guarantee a dish is completely free from any allergens or specific ingredients. We declare allergens if they are intentionally added to a product. Where our suppliers have indicated possible cross contamination risks, we also declare their allergen ‘may contain’ risks. If the food is served in its packaging, we advise you to refer to the manufacturer’s label. If you are concerned about possible allergen cross contamination of the food you wish to consume, please ask us for further information on our cooking methods and policies.

The Food Standards Agency continue to advise people who have a peanut allergy to avoid eating any foods that contain or may contain mustard, mustard seeds, mustard powder or mustard flour because of potential contamination with peanuts

Gluten Free - Where we offer gluten free dishes, controls are in place to ensure that dishes contain no more than 20 parts per million gluten; however, as we handle many allergens in our busy kitchens, we therefore cannot guarantee all traces of allergens are completely removed.

A brief history...

The ritual of Afternoon Tea owes its origins to Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford. As a young women in the early 1800s she lived during a time when it was common to eat only two main meals a day, with breakfast scheduled early in the morning and dinner occurring late in the evening. Weakened and irritated by hunger pangs each day, she decided to schedule time to take tea and snack each afternoon.

Taking inspiration from this, we decided to continue with the tradition of this delightful mid-afternoon pause and are proud to offer Afternoon Tea here at The Red Fox.
