Great coffee and excellent service! We had iced matcha and the iced lavender latte.
Nice patio, minimal indoor seating, good roaster
Mocha is my standard order when trying new places. This coffee is really good. Definitely in my top 5. Which would be: 1. Rivers Edge 2. Brick Road Coffee Company 3. Grant Coffee Company 4. Sugar and Twine and 5. Lamplighter. 6. Perk This is based solely on the mocha I ordered. Each has its own unique characteristics that elevate the experience. The staff here are super friendly and welcoming. The food options look pretty good as well but I only ordered a mocha. This was definitely worth the trip.
Every experience I've had here has been enjoyable so far. You order outside or you can pre-order online. They have a small inclosed seating area attached with chairs,benches,tables amd fans. The inclosed seating area is very cute inside with multiple plants. There is also a small green area across the street with picnic tables and umbrellas. Coffee and food always taste great!
Great coffee, great staff, great atmosphere. An unbeatable trifecta. Just wins all around.
Funky local coffee house near VCU, it's a nice morning or afternoon stop for coffee and sandwiches. Best on a nice day for sitting outside!
Super cute coffee shop offering a daily menu of food which also was pretty good. Staff were kind and helpful. Food was overall ok. Everything came out a little more done/dry than I would have liked but the nice hot cup of coffee helped. Definitely will come back to again to try something else
Incredible roast options, always grab a bag or two when passing through Richmond on trips. Love the vibe nearby. Grab a coffee, visit a few shops, and stretch our legs. Wonderful coffeehouse!
Every time I’m in Richmond I make it a point to stop here. This is my all time favorite coffee shop. They’re always busy and for good reason. Their bagel sandwiches are delicious as well
Iced mocha was the absolute best coffee I have had in a very long time. Love it, love y'all!
Went for their breakfast burrito and coffee. Burrito was barely warm and a bit of a mess. Utensils broke while trying to use them, staff mildly unengaged, guy sitting across from me (looked to be living on the hard) was just sitting there spewing forth “f.. this” and “f.. that..” to no one in particular. Pretty unpleasant experience and definitely not worth the $20 bucks I spent.
it took them about 45 mins to make a PLAIN bagel with ONLY cream cheese. When I followed up on my order, it had just been sitting, waiting and was cold by the time it was in my hands. I understand it’s busy but this is the simplest order and it took so long because of poor planning oh the servers behalf. Dissatisfied and disappointed.
Good coffee. Even if one has demanding taste....
I absolutely love Lamplighter! Every time I’m in RVA I walk over for some yum food (don’t sleep on those chocolate matcha cups) & drinks (lavender latte is 10/10, but just found out today it’s seasonal). Today though, I decided to write a review because of their extreme thoughtfulness towards the RVA community. As seen in the picture I’ve shared, anyone who isn’t able to afford their next meal can go in and grab a sandwich or a drink free of charge. The world needs more of this kindness. Thank you Lamplighter for leading the change! :)
Such an adorable coffee shop! There is ample seating indoors & outdoors. The staff provided fantastic service. The vegan banana bread and sweet potato muffin were so tasty.
We visited Richmond, and decided to have a coffee/lunch at this location. We were greeted by a nice host and atmosphere. Coffee was great and we had the TLT and the "17 1/2" specials and they were really good, been to a few coffee places and food isnt always the highlight but here it was definitely the case. Would definitely look for this place next time we stop by Richmond.
A good sit out, a good coffee place for weekend morning.
i am always searching for a lox bagel and coffee in the morning. both exist here. was not too impressed with the food, but it was made with love i could tell. too expensive but i'm also a very poor person so don't take my word for it. a man there asked if i had found my car as i had lost it the night before and i felt loved in this city. thanks
For Sunday morning, I was looking for the place to have coffee and quick bite to have. I knew Lamplighter was the local coffee shop in Richmond and decided to have coffee from Lamplighter coffee roasters. From the menu I decided to order Cold Brew Coffee, Everything Bagel and also ordered Pumpkin Bread for to go. The coffee shop looked amazing with beautifully decorated and ample of place to sit and have coffee as well as to have the quick bite. The service was good and I soon got my order which included Coffee as well as Everything Bagel. The cold brew was amazing and it was freshly brewed. Amazing coffee to start my day. The Bagel was also delicious with Cream Cheese on it and it was tasty as well as delicious. Amazing coffee shop in Richmond to have coffee and quick bite to have.
Friendly staff and delicious food/coffee! I got an iced latte, a vegan burrito and a vegan pumpkin loaf. Everything was great! I will definitely be back next time I’m in Richmond!
