It is so hard to find gluten free donuts, especially ones that taste good. Knocked it out of the park! Absolutely delicious!

What an amazing place! Definitely the best gluten free pancakes I’ve ever had in my life. My brother (who isn’t gluten free) said they were even better than his! We came here both days of our vacation because we couldn’t stay away! AMAZING Benedics. I love the option to choose one of each if you can’t decide! Marie did an amazing job highlighting some things that set apart Snooze from the rest, and I’ll for sure be on the lookout for a Snooze whenever I travel! I just wish we had one in Seattle 😉

We were in town visting from Phoenix and stoked to find this gem just down the street from our Airbnb. Everyone was so friendly! My boyfriend was pleased with their drip coffee. I loved the matcha latte and the chai. I had a deliciously rich gluten free chocolate coconut bar but the show stopper was the ricotta cake! If that's available when you visit make sure you try it! They also have a nice selection of Pressed juices and energy bites.

A favorite lunch/tea/coffee location for my friends and I. Outdoor and indoor seating. I usually get a salad without cheese and crisps since I am on a dairy-free & gluten-free diet. No problems with accommodating my rrquests. Food quality is consistently good and efforts to clearly indicate which food is unavailable (sold out) is appreciated.

Sugar Shack Cafe is just outstanding! First of all, I called a few weeks before our visit to Huntington Beach to find out about gluten-free or gluten-friendly options and they were very helpful. When we finally did visit, our first visit was excellent and our second visit was even better! It was pretty busy yesterday and our server, Julia, handled it smoothly and was very friendly and helpful, an excellent server. This morning we had the pleasure of being served by (I think the owner/manager Ryan), who was warm and welcoming and friendly. Really made us feel comfortable. And his wife (I don’t think we got her name, sadly) took over service this morning and she was awesome, too. Very friendly, welcoming, and great with the coffee refills and everything else. The food was EXCELLENT. I know, you might be thinking how excited can you get about breakfast, but it was great. Coffee was delicious, bacon was crispy, eggs were fluffy, hash browns were particularly good - crispy, not the least bit greasy, just great! And the eggs Benedict (day two, this morning) were out of this world! First of all, I’ve almost never had an eggs Benedict dish come out hot, in any restaurant, ever, but here it came out hot! And the Hollandaise was great, not too lemony, smooth as silk; the ham was tasty, too! Nice English muffin too. Just the perfect eggs Benedict. PLUS - and a BIG plus for my wife and me - it’s open at 6 AM! And I love the ambiance with the surf photos on the walls, and it’s small but comfortable inside. And you CAN eat outside if you want. To me, this is the exact kind of breakfast experience you want, and I’m happy to support this business and highly recommend it to others!

Delicious coffee! I love their iced mocha with oat milk. Go sweet or black and the flavors are really good. Not the best espresso we’ve had, a tad bitter, but overall the best coffee in the area by far! Fresh daily muffins and a gluten free banana muffin that’s moist and tasty!

Great coffee, welcoming atmosphere, and excellent customer service. I really love what Philz Coffee has going on. Their menu is interesting, refreshing, and unique. They offer a wide variety of different items, including gluten-free pastries that taste delicious! The first time I ordered their coffee, I was blown away with how delicious it was. I will say the second time I went, I was a bit disappointed with my coffee order, but because it is customizable, I may have just ordered a new flavor I didn't enjoy, or not added enough sweetener. I definitely had a great first impression, however, so I will be coming back in the future. Staff is really friendly, and they even have fundraisers sometimes for local charities such as a cat shelter where you can drop off items for them to donate. Overall, it was a great experience. Thanks!

Very basic restaurant that doesn't hint at the amazing food being served here. This was our second visit, and so far I've had the opportunity to sample the Egyptian lasagna (amazing-but very different from the Italian kind) and lamb kabob. First off - the bread is off the chain delicious. Airy, soft on the inside and just crispy enough on the outside to be gluten-perfection. The lamb was moist and tender, with just the right amount of spices to let the taste of the meat shine through. We'll be back - and don't let the unassuming location put you off. This is the kind of place you feel like a genius for discovering and can easily recommend to anyone.
