Complete Guide to List of Allergens in Starbucks Menu

This is your comprehensive list of allergens in Starbucks menu items. Review this reference guide to check which hot and cold beverages, breakfast and lunch menu items, and bakery goods are made with eggs, milk, soy, wheat, sesame, or nuts.

As a bonus, read through to the final section of this allergen report for a list of foods and drinks made without any allergens.

Restaurants declare allergens based on the United States FDA guidelines, which outline nine major food allergens: eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soybeans, tree nuts, and wheat.

As a result, any food, including foods made without allergens, may contain or come in contact with common allergens through cross contamination.
