Under EU Regulation 1169/2011 we must inform consumers about the 14 major allergens when present as ingredients. On our digital menu, allergens appear as icons next to each item.

2. Reading the menu
- Icon next to item = allergen present as ingredient in the recipe at time of entry.
- No icon does not guarantee absence — see cross-contamination below.
- Variants and extras may change allergens — ask staff.
3. Cross-contamination
Pap-illon uses shared preparation areas. Even without a listed allergen, unintended contact may occur (e.g. gluten, nuts, milk). For severe allergies or anaphylaxis, verbal confirmation with staff is essential.
4. Updates & accuracy
We update the menu when recipes or suppliers change; online updates may lag. Supplier data may change without immediate notice on our site.
5. If you have an allergy
- Read the menu and icons.
- Inform staff before ordering — even if the dish seems safe.
- Ask about ingredients, sauces, toppings and extras.
- When in doubt, do not consume the product.
6. Not medical advice
Information here and on the menu is not medical or nutritional advice. Contact: info@papillon-symi.gr or in store.
