Amazing service and food! We came in with an infant and our server was incredibly accommodating, even offering to turn down the music, if it was too loud. Food and coffee were both perfect! I had an amazing espresso and my wife had, what she said was, “The best cappuccino I have had, within the United States.”Kid-friendliness: We brought in our infant and they were incredibly accommodating!

My only regret about The Lights Cafe is that this was my first visit...I wish I'd tried it sooner! I had breakfast there and loved the French Toast. My friend had the breakfast sandwich and she said it was delicious too. The service was incredible and it's such a great and relaxing atmosphere. I will definitely return for lunch soon and/or dinner on a Friday or Saturday evening.

My food was great. So nice to have healthy options. Cute place, nice people, but having the news on makes me less likely to want to come back because I go to a restaurant/ coffee shop to relax a little.

My husband and I have gone both by ourselves and with our daughter numerous times and have never been disappointed. The service is great, the food is love on a plate (the flavors and quality is better than you can get anywhere else in the area), and they just started a dinner menu that looks amazing. This small restaurant is a must try and we have quickly become regulars.

Went for the first time after I saw Lottery Dream Home had an episode there and wasn’t disappointed. The mimosa with Prosecco and fresh squeezed orange juice was delicious. Had the chicken sandwich and crispy fries (the only way to serve them in my opinion). Will definitely be back for breakfast to try some of the coffee/chai drinks and yummy options. If I have to put one complaint it’s that they call it a wine bar as well yet there’s no wine list and they’re not open late. Seems like a waste of a liquor license as I only saw 1 other table with wine, I guess it’s mostly to serve mimosas but if I had a liquor license and called myself a wine bar, I’d at least open Friday and Saturday night to serve some glasses and take advantage of the markups. Just my opinion.

Very unassuming place with good vegan food! I had their avocado toast which had lemon juice and red pepper over sourdough bread. It was delicious and thickly spread. The Manager was very nice and told us a lot about how they do things. All their Pastry is made in house. We also had the Vanilla and Matcha Latte. I liked the Vanilla the best, it had a sweet but not too sweet flavor. I definitely will be going back. They have an Olive Oil cake that looks divine! Highly recommend this place!

This place is great for a hidden gem for a healthy lunch or breakfast . They Also have a great selection of unique wine and fresh squeezed OJ for mimosas! ??Try the olive oil cake!

Loved this place. Staff was friendly, food was fresh and delicious. You can tell that they care about the small details of their dishes, which made for a unique breakfast experience. Wish I had a photo of the food to post, but we ate it too quick.Vegetarian options: Pastrami tofu was great!
