One love is a great place to go but, it was cold and most of their outdoor heaters do not work, they really need to get these repaired.

Before I visited Gainesville for a Sunday day trip with my son and my dog, I researched to find a vegetarian restaurant that was dog friendly.
I found this place and their website states they close at 3pm on Sunday. We arrived a little before 2pm. As we were were getting out of the car, an employee yelled at us that they were closing because they hadn't been busy all day.
Our day's activities were in south and central Gainesville (e.g., hiking) and we had made a special trip to this cafe, which is in the north. So, when the cafe shut us out I found myself with a hungry child and dog in a car trying to google a new place on my little cell phone. I don't know Gainesville and it was now raining.
Thanks for caring about your customers, Cafe!

I ordered the smash burger with sweet potato fries. My meal came out promptly and was delicious. I will order this meal in the future.

One Love Café is easily one of my favorite spots in Gainesville. The live bands are always great and bring such an upbeat, welcoming energy. The whole environment feels like a place where you can relax, enjoy good music, and just have a genuinely good time.
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!

Love the live bands, great place for dancing with friends. Decent selection of food and drinks. Just wish the dance floor was a little bigger and smoother.

Quesadillas were cheesy and chicken filling was full of grill flavor. Mildly spicy salsa, guac and sour cream were perfect toppings.
This is a community and not just a restaurant. Theres a great vibe to the outdoor area. I had a great time and loved the steak sandwich & fries I got. I just forgot to take a pic!

Nice atmosphere, OK food. Vegan options limited and not exceptional, so we never went back.
