Lightworks Cafe

Fabulous hole-in-the-wall place. Family owned. Visited in November. Back in February, and it's on our to-do list of places to visit again for lunch. The food was perfect. The drinks were spectacular! If you like visiting coffee shops, you have to come here.

Delicious breakfast. Quality ingredients. We had the breakfast taco and breakfast sandwich with bacon. We thought the place was a little hard to find. We drove past it the first time. :)
Will definitely go back!

This place is so cool! The plants and moss wall create a lovely atmosphere as lots of natural light pours in through the windows.
They have Onyx coffee for pour overs which is exquisite and the matcha was perfectly delicious! We came to early for the food but lots of vegan options that looked great!

Our experience at Lightworks is always positive, and our family is really grateful to have this establishment in our town (we love you, CR). The food is really tasty to put it plainly. The coffee is lovely and beautiful and delicious. If I could get an impossible burger every day with one of their monthly special drinks, I would be in heaven.

The BLT was perfect yet unique with a tangy combination of pico de gallo and garlic aioli.

There hasn’t been a single item I’ve tried from the menu that wasn’t exceptional. By far the best Buffalo chicken sandwich I’ve ever eaten- it’s not super spicy, so don’t let that hold you back! All the breakfast items, coffee, salads, beignets, seasonal treats, take’n bakes, etc. I could go on and on. And the owners are lovely humans. By far one of our favorite places to support in the corridor.

This was not my first time. Very inexpensive. I had some scrambled eggs, toast, and breakfast potatoes. Food came up fast. No seasoning on eggs or potatoes. I sat in an odd little back room that was freezing cold.

On a previous visit I was very pleased with my meal and experience.

Nathan, Stephanie, & chef have
the best cafe going. Real food, lovely atmosphere, and actual coffee/barista skills. Quality is top shelf. Menu is singularly interesting and varied…Viet coffee!! The space/patio is
quiet & comfortable, just off 8th Ave. Find your way here.

They're great here and the food is amazing. My favorite is the buffalo chicken sandwich, it the best I've had and a som black/blue burger. I always like trying the new special drinks as well.

Hands down the best cafe in town. Everything is made from scratch and is so fresh. I always end up ordering several plates including a side of fruit because the meals are so delicious. Be prepared for a lunch rush around noon. We waited for over 30 minutes for our found and it was entirely worth it. The beignets are incredible - wear white so you don't show the powder sugar! I think about stopping in for something to go daily... But I probably go in about once every other week. I would go in more if I lived closer to downtown. Also it's an excellent place to go to before or after a visit to the library. Lightworks has lots of choices no matter your dietary requirements. Yum!
