Crema's Take
“Aurora's Café and Gifts is a thoughtfully allergen-conscious spot where families with dietary restrictions can finally relax and enjoy a meal together, thanks to their impressive vegan and gluten-free selections that go well beyond typical café offerings. The space itself feels like stepping into a cozy home, and the kitchen clearly takes pride in their work, whether it's their decadent French toast casserole or beautifully crafted GF half moon cookies that'll transport you back in time. The warm, attentive staff makes it clear they genuinely care about getting the details right, making this a place where you can linger over coffee and pastries without a second thought.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

The inside is beautiful and clean, and kinda has a cozy home feeling to it. The cashier was very nice and friendly, the food was delicious. Honestly 10/10. Will definitely have to come back! Also it is completely vegan with great gluten free options! A perfect place for anybody…

I truly wish I could recommend this place to everyone following a vegan gluten-free diet. I ate there yesterday and it was delicious. Unfortunately, it’s simply not safe for anyone with celiac disease. There is a real danger of cross-contamination of gluten in their…
Food, service, quality and all Vegan! Lots of GF options. Nice staff, great food, allergen conscious. All of the donuts look amazing. I haven’t had a half moon cookie in forever and she had them GF. Amazing!
