Chooka's

A verified coeliac reviewer reports that staff were 'extremely lovely and accommodating, ensuring the food was coeliac safe' and that there are 'plenty of gluten free options'. However, no source confirms a dedicated fryer, dedicated kitchen, or formal accreditation. The venue is a small Japanese cafe serving onigiri and omusubi, which are naturally gluten-free dishes, but shared prep is likely. Tier C reflects a marked-menu-equivalent awareness by staff without structural separation evidence.
