Ladro recognises the importance of providing gluten free options, and can now adjust their menus to be entirely gluten free. Ladro is consistently written up as having some of the best traditional style pizza in Melbourne. Please advise waiting staff about your gluten free requirements, and they will be happy to discuss the selections available.

There's a gluten free pizza range, cooked in the woodfired pizza oven. Gluten free pizza bases are made on the premises in a separate area in the kitchen. Utensils and benches are thoroughly cleaned, and a special board and grease proof paper are used. The kitchen staff are gluten free savvy and understand contamination issues.

Plenty of other menu options are available including risottos, entrees, mains and desserts. Where possible, sustainable food suppliers are sourced. Ladro even makes their own honey on their rooftop!
