SCC and suppliers prepare all food in accordance with the Food Standards set by Food Standards Australia. We are passionate about supporting local suppliers and using fresh, Aussie ingredients. Our food is of the highest quality, designed around your needs. We are very conscious about dietary requirements and endeavour to provide an alternative to those with more specific requirements. Whilst we take the appropriate measures to ensure nothing is cross-contaminated, it is important to recognise that all our food is made from scratch (with love) in a commercial kitchen. Our kitchen contains a lot of common allergen ingredients including eggs, dairy, nuts, gluten and more. Whilst SCC understand the serious implications of reactions to allergens, we will not accept responsibility or liability for an adverse reaction to our food. It is the responsibility of The Client to inform those eating on all relative dietary information and to order substantial options for those with specific needs. It is in your best interest to include a variety of gluten free and vegetarian options on every occasion.
