For UK Restaurants
Food allergens,
on your restaurant
menu. Properly.
Allergenius is the software that puts accurate food allergen information directly on your restaurant menu — live, filterable, QR-code accessible, and always up to date. No more paper sheets. No more guesswork for your guests.
What this menu does
Why paper allergen systems put restaurants at risk
Most restaurants manage food allergens with a printed matrix, a paper folder or verbal communication from front-of-house staff. Each approach creates risk — for the guest, for your team, and for your business.
Outdated paper menus
A recipe change takes days to reach a printed allergen sheet. In the meantime, a guest may be given incorrect information.
Verbal miscommunication
Relying on staff to communicate allergens verbally introduces human error — even with excellent training.
Hidden black folders
Keeping allergen information in a staff folder means guests must ask for it — many won't, and some can't rely on what they're told.
Legal compliance gaps
UK law and FSA guidance requires allergen information to be accessible to customers. Manual systems make consistent compliance very difficult to achieve.

Food allergens on restaurant menus: what the law says
UK restaurants have clear legal obligations around food allergen information. Allergenius is built to help you meet them — without the administrative burden of paper-based systems.
Food Information Regulations
UK law requires food businesses to provide customers with accurate allergen information on request. The expectation is increasingly that this information is proactively accessible — not locked in a back-office folder.
Natasha's Law · Oct 2021
Foods pre-packaged for direct sale must carry a full ingredient and allergen label. Allergenius supports compliance by helping you maintain accurate allergen records for everything you produce and sell.
FSA Guidance · 2025
The Food Standards Agency's 2025 guidance specifically encourages businesses to show allergen information directly on the menu presented to the customer. Allergenius makes this straightforward.
