Got a question for us?

Maybe we can answer your most common questions below...

Does EL&N cater to different dietary requirements?

We do our best to cater to all dietary requirements.

We have limited options for vegans and those following a gluten free diet with a slightly wider selection for vegetarians. We’re working on development to add more vegan friendly and gluten free dishes, but in the meantime, please speak to a member of our team and they will do their best to cater to your requests.

Coeliacs please note, all our food is created in a kitchen where there may be gluten nearby, we cannot guarantee that won’t be any cross contamination.

Our entire menu is halal. Any bacon listed on our menu is turkey bacon or Macon.

We have plenty of milk alternative options from oat, soya & almond to coconut milk. Our friendly baristas will be happy to help.

You can see all our menus online before your visit.
