Soups, sandwiches, scratch entrees and homemade desserts β all made in-house, every single day.
At Garden Gate Cafe, everything on your plate was made here β from the bread on your sandwich to the meatloaf on your plate. No shortcuts. No pre-made shortcuts. Just real, honest food cooked fresh every morning in Peru, Indiana.
Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch or sitting down for a proper dinner, you'll taste the difference that scratch cooking makes.
Real food, real people, real Peru.





The food is absolutely incredible β everything is made from scratch and you can taste the difference. Best meatloaf I have ever had, hands down.
Stop in for lunch, bring the family for dinner, or call ahead to place an order. We're open Monday through Saturday β closed Sundays.
