Poke the Bear Cafe
GF items like burgers, poke bowls, and desserts are available, but the cafe does not have a dedicated GF menu or kitchen. Staff awareness is good: a coeliac diner reported the server changed gloves and cleaned surfaces, and another reviewer noted the server was also coeliac. However, this is a shared kitchen with no dedicated fryer or prep area mentioned. Coeliac safety depends heavily on the shift and the person you speak to. Call ahead and stress your needs before ordering.

Dairy-free

Best effort, No marked menu but staff will accommodate when asked. Quality varies by who's working that shift; safer to call ahead and confirm.
Two FindMeGlutenFree reviewers marked the venue as 'good for dairy-free', but no structural kitchen details (dedicated equipment, staff training for dairy, or menu markings) are available from any source. The same cross-contamination risks that apply to gluten likely apply to dairy. Best to ask staff directly about dairy-free options and preparation practices.
