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 The Herring Room

Does The Herring Room have gluten-free options?

Yes: 19 dishes are gluten free as served, and 2 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 The Herring Room coeliac friendly?

The venue notes: “Staff ask that dietary requirements be passed to the kitchen at least 48 hours in advance.”. 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 The Herring Room?

Crispy NZ Whole Baby Red Snapper (GF option available); Seafood Platter (GF and DF options available).

Monday: Closed. Tuesday: 5:30pm–9pm. Wednesday: 5:30pm–9pm. Thursday: 5:30pm–9pm. Friday: 12pm–3pm, 5:30pm–10:30pm. Saturday: 12pm–3pm, 5:30pm–10:30pm. Sunday: Closed. Hours can change on public holidays; check with the venue.
