(Ok, first, shout out to MASON, the does-it-all server and cashier with a heart of gold. Go Mason!)
OLC, Not a whole lot to look at, but you’ll soon learn that’s not what makes this place special. Parking’s noooo problem since the cafe is set away from the plaza, so you get out of your car, walk a few steps and enter the outside which also serves as the inside. Huh? There is no ‘indoor’ inside, only a tiny bar and a cash register where you order and take a number, menus and one case of sweets. The next part’s the good part: the large covered patio has lots of metal chairs and tables, tall and short, and a few sitting out in the open air. Bringing this all together is the stage with a big pretty painted mural. Plenty big for a band – or two – to play for you. Now, the food *chef’s kiss* is very good and reasonably priced. It even gets brought to you!
The staff truly makes this place special. Deliah, Mike, and Megan are always so friendly, attentive, and on top of everything — they really help create that warm, community feel the café is known for.
But the highlight of every visit for me is meeting and getting to know Sarah, the head chef. You can instantly tell how dedicated she is to her craft. Her food is consistently packed with flavor and incredibly thoughtful, and every meal she puts out is cooked to absolute perfection. Beyond just the amazing food, her customer service is top tier — she’s always so kind, so upbeat, and so willing to help in every aspect of the restaurant. It’s rare to meet someone who clearly loves what they do as much as Sarah does.
I always look forward to seeing what weekly specials she creates — they never disappoint. One Love Café truly lives up to its name. Highly recommended!
It is an open restaurant, no indoor seating, but there were also no bugs, which was lovely!! I was just happy to find a place that I could take my dog and not be rushed.
It was a beautiful breezy night!
Kat was an awesome karaoke host, and everyone was having a great time!
Service was great, and the food full of flavor; but mine was really oily. You could see it soaked through the paper and the bread.
Over all a great experience!
