Life is Sweet Bakery and Cafe - Danville, California

This is a full on gluten free diner. It’s so hard to find restaurants that are fully gluten free and the food tastes great, but this place is all of the above. Plus their coffee is delicious. 10/10 would recommend.

I ordered a custom birthday cake from here and it was PERFECT! I had a reference photo and they made it exactly as I pictured. And it tasted so good!! They even made it vegan too. Highly recommend.

Editing to add that I ordered a second custom cake from them and it was perfect again! I showed an inspiration picture and they made it perfectly. It was so cute and the attention to detail was amazing. It was the best part of my friends birthday! It also tasted so good. I have Celiac and lots of gluten free friends and it is so nice to be able to order safely from here.

Our friend is visiting and has a gluten allergy so we happily drove to Danville to try this place. The whole family loved it and most of the food didn't taste "gluten free". At the end of the meal the cookies were a great dessert and were nice and chewy and not dense and crispy like some gluten free cookies I've tried in the past. Food portions were a bit smaller than other restaurants, but the prices weren't too crazy and the cute cafe atmosphere was charming.

This place should categorize as diners instead of bakery cafe… the target customer seems for heavy breakfast.. the pastries taste above average and coffee normal…

We love this place and have added it to our Sunday morning routine for brunch. It is the kind of place Americans tend to love in Europe. Bright and clean, young, efficient and friendly serving staff, fabulous baked goods and great coffee. My favorite is the omelette. It is a go-to place for young families, cyclists, runners and after-church goers. Great to sit outside and watch Sunday unfold.

Really fantastic. Food and latte were both good. I had the avocado toast— the sunny side up egg was cooked PERFECTLY and the avocado was well seasoned, flavorful. The bread was thick and inoffensive. It was $13 which I at first thought was way too much but I understood the price when they brought me it: it’s a whole avocado’s worth on there!! The oat milk latte was good. I also purchased to-go a brown butter pecan cookie, cookie dough cupcake, butterscotch chocolate muffin, and a cinnamon roll (more of a cinnamon square). All these pastries together were $19– very fair!! Flavors are good, not identifiably gf which is rare. The best part is the VARIETY they offer. My parents also tried each item (neither are gf) and both said they were as good as glutinous pastries.

This place is great with lots of treats for those that can't have gluten, which is a hard find. The only caveat is I've been trying to come by here for so long, but every time I pass by it's in the afternoon when it's closed. I could see this cafe being so successful in the afternoons, especially on weekends. Please look into being open later! 🙂

We showed up about 15 minutes before closing and asked for our food to go so we could sit outside and they would not have to wait for us. They were very welcoming. They are dedicated gluten free and even have a sign on the door saying they do not allow gluten inside to avoid cross-contamination. And my non celiac family liked it, too!
