This place is awesome! They have an entire gluten free menu. And tons of yummy gluten free treats that the waitress bakes herself. I ordered the gluten free club with sweet potato fries. It was amazing!The cook was a bit grumpy and barked at the poor waitress who was doing the best she could with a full restaurant.This is a total gem and we will be going back here often! The GF chocolate chip muffin was moist and really good!Mr grumpy chef needs to be mindful that the customers can hear him and be nice to your team!

Gluten-free apple French toast was amazing. The Vegan wrap has been the best I’ve ever had!

I wish I could give them a 5. Fort of all. The food was fantastic. Had a turkey sandwich and the turkey was great. The bread not so good, but gluten free bread never really is good. The atmosphere is lacking, the music a bit too loud and looking into a dirty kitchen on arrival is a bit off putting. The staff seem sad and like they just want to be done. All in all, go for the food and close your eyes to everything else. Maybe order to go. It's worth it!

Love the gluten free muffins! This is an owner ran small business. The atmosphere is pleasing and all items are gluten free. Absolutely will go back!

Love that she uses Organic! Very tasty & it's served hot! The kids French toast is pricey for 1 slice but every thing else seems to be fair price for portion, taste, quality & service. We will go there again for sure!

Found this place on Bring Fido was rated 5 stars for dog-friendly, decided to take my dog and the waitress rudely said when we entered "You wanna order to go?" not even offer to let my dog sit outside and gave my dog a dirty look. we were not welcomed at all, do not take your dog here we didn't even order because they were so rude 0/10 will never give this place my business

It was our very first time and everyone was very welcoming and friendly. We ordered take out and when we got home we were very impressed and it was DELICIOUS!!

The chocolate malt had to much chocolate in it. The ice cream tasted old.We will definitely stop in again. And I will order a chocolate malt again to see if it is made right.

Overall Amazing but especially if you’re gluten free. We were visiting from out of state for few days but came back twice it was so good. It’s been years since I’ve had a donut or a sandwich where I actually enjoyed the bread. I felt like our dishes were custom made for us and you can definitely taste the thoughtfulness (TLC) they put in creating a meal. We also determined that the couple that owns the restaurant must be the nicest and most hospitable people we’ve encountered.
Delicious healthy gluten-free food and great service with a smile! My absolute FAVORITE restaurant in Mesa!

Amazing, gluten-free bakery and restaurant for those with celiac or who choose gluten-free! I don’t have time to bake for my kids, which means many times we cut corners in our attempt to eat gluten free and buy processed gluten free junk. NO MORE! Loads of yummy (she has amazing homemade gluten free flour) gluten free goods you can purchase and freeze or eat right there! Hint: we did both!

I love cafe 8! It’s the best gluten free place! I love going here for breakfast and lunch! I also never get sick from cross contamination! I love how they always asked when you walk in if anyone needs a gluten free menu!

Visiting my mother and she suggested we try it out. Food was wonderful, as well as the owner and staff. My gluten free daughter was very impressed, which is rare. We'll be heading back the next time we're in Mesa.

We love this little restaurant, and the owners. The chef is amazing and his wife is so sweet and very accomplished. Her gluten free desserts are wonderful! We came late , just before closing, and she welcomed us and fed us a wonderful lunch, spending time with us, and sharing her sunshine with us. Much gratitude!
