What diners say

No diner ratings yet.

Ratings are diners’ own experience. They don’t make a dish safe; neither do we.

Where this comes from

Allergen answers come from the menu’s labels first, then the listed ingredients, then a model’s judgement checked when unsure. How allergen status is decided.

Questions about Cafe Lewi

Does Cafe Lewi have gluten-free options?

No dish is marked gluten free as served, and 1 more can be made gluten free on request, from the menu read 1 Nov 2026. Each dish shows whether the venue labelled it or it was read from the ingredients.

Is Cafe Lewi coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “Dinner and All Day menus print: 'Please inform your waiter of any dietary requirement.”. Chef’s Kiss reads each venue’s own menu and says where every answer came from. It never calls a dish safe: kitchens share fryers, boards and flour, and menus change. If you have coeliac disease or an allergy, confirm with staff before you order.

What can be made gluten free at Cafe Lewi?

Parmesan & Herb Omelette (GF bread +$5.50 in place of focaccia (add-on)).

When is Cafe Lewi open?

Monday: Closed. Tuesday: 7am–3pm. Wednesday: 7am–3pm, 5pm–9pm. Thursday: 7am–3pm, 5pm–10pm. Friday: 7am–3pm, 5pm–8pm. Saturday: 7:30am–4pm. Sunday: 8am–4pm. Hours can change on public holidays; check with the venue.
