We try to accommodate allergies and restrictions as best as possible by offering a selection of food choices at all meals.
The buffets will be labeled with the food icons on the left hand side.

In addition, the QR codes at the buffets are there to help you gain a quick overview of all allergens and additives, as exemplified here. You can also find the allergen and additives list for each break in the schedule in the description section.

If you have any special dietary requirements, please get in touch with our Operations Team.
