Customer Reviews
This place is a delight!! The food is amazingly fresh and light on the stomach. I walked away feeling so full but not heavy at all. Every single bite was a bit of “wow” on the taste buds. Luis is a fun character and Liz is such a sweetheart. I felt like a regular walking in! We stop in here every Sunday after the Elevation Church service. If you’re one for oatmeal gotta try the Oat Porridge. Their Açaí Bowl I’d indulge so quickly and forget it’s to share lol! The best Chai latte in town hot or on ice! The spice really kicks in to remind you it’s Chai :)
Just stopped here for the first time and had a wonderful lunch. The service was extremely considerate and welcoming, and the food and coffee were delicious. I even had a very generous individual pay for my meal, which was an amazing surprise! I will certainly be back!
My wife and I stopped by on a Saturday morning for breakfast at The Lights Cafe. We were seated right away and our service was outstanding the entire time. The gentleman who was helping us seemed to be the owner and we loved how he interacted with everyone there. We went with Burrata Toast, Egg Combo and an order of Sweet Potato Fries. Everything we ate was amazing and the portion sizes were great. We will definitely be back again and would highly recommend The Lights Cafe!
This place was a wonderful surprise. My wife has gluten and dairy allergies and there are lots of delicious options. I got the avocado toast with poached eggs and bacon. She got the breakfast tortilla and we shared the banana chocolate chip muffin. Fantastic. Everything was “made with love” according to the owner and I could taste it. He wa a wonderful guy as well. It was clear he loved his work. We definitely will go back.
Great experience! Our waiter, Luis, was super friendly and funny. We came on a Tuesday for brunch/lunch, and while the restaurant was nearly empty, the food and service were excellent, even better than my visit about three/four years ago under different ownership. The layout feels fresh, though it’s still a bit small. They have freshly made juice, coffee and the food were super delicious. The menu also offers great options for those with dietary restrictions. A pleasant surprise, definitely worth checking out!
