@jamesholden @chrisn I was actually kicked out of the #Dobbies #Garden Centre cafe when I ordered food *which was labelled gluten free* and they discovered I was coeliac. "Company policy is we don't serve coeliacs". Unfortunately after a bit of research I discovered that this is (probably) completely legal because dietary requirements are not considered a disability because (when properly managed) they don't affect your ability to work.

Well, I guess we won't be visiting #Dobbies garden centres again. We've been going for years because they clearly label gluten free food and have a nice little soft play for the kid. Today they refused to serve me because company policy is apparently not to serve people with food allergies/intollerances.

To be clear, this policy is #illegal - it is no different to building a ramp and then banning all wheelchair users.
