Honestly, for the last 9 years this place has been my Go-To for when I’m not feeling well and need some nurturing. As a gluten-free person I come here for the GF Focaccia Tuna Melt (add tomato) and the GF Chocolate Cupcake with Peanut Butter Chocolate Dipped Frosting 🧁 😮💨. Today I added their Pozole and it was amazing! Also, they have the BEST gluten free breakfast sandwich 🥪 and it’s so affordable. Love love love them 💕

I had the BEST banana bread at this cafe. And it happened to be gluten free and vegan (unexpected from the delicious taste) It was so good I ordered a slice for my sister and she agreed it was the best banana bread. The slice I had was the last one on display and the employee happily sliced an untouch, fresh new loaf from the fridge for my second order:)

The gluten-free chocolate cake was incredibly tasty! I called in advance and was informed that they were initially sold out. However, they had more batter available and were able to bake some additional cakes within 30 minutes.

My boyfriend is gluten/dairy free and we came here based on good ratings from the Find Me GF app. While he couldn’t have the donuts, we were mainly after brunch and the tofu scrambles were delicious! He had the Pepples scramble with avocado, and I had the Pesto scramble. Both come served with hash browns and sourdough toast, so we just left out the toast for him. I usually don’t love tofu but this dish was absolutely delicious! We are from out of town but will definitely stop back here if we’re in the area again 😄
