Cafe Medina is not a dedicated gluten-free facility.
Per-allergen evidence
Cafe Medina is not a dedicated gluten-free facility. Multiple community reports describe a shared kitchen with a dedicated gluten-free fryer, a separate toaster, and staff trained to handle coeliac requests. Gluten-free items are marked on the menu. One server reportedly has coeliac disease themselves. Cross-contamination risk remains, and the venue itself warns it may not be safe for coeliac diners. Calling ahead to confirm current practices is recommended.
