| - One of my friends is the best of the best to finding new places for us to eat at so when she said she had a new cafe for us to try, I was more than ecstatic! It lived up to my standards too, considering I took a couple of my other friends back.
Although I recommend getting reservations first, the wait when you show up unexpectedly isn't that long. When we showed up out of the blue, we were told to leave a number so that we free to roam the streets until a table cleared up for us. Reservations shed off the most, ten minutes of your time since we had walked down the street and back before we got a phone call, telling us our table was ready.
It's a small cafe fit for small groups rather than large parties. Quiet and calm, so some of the customers there were there to study or catching up with friends. All in all, the environment was warm and looked beautiful! Perfect for those of you who want to sneak in some photos for Instagram, hehe.
Speaking of Instagram, the food was great! Their menu carries a variety of dishes from sandwiches to pizzas to desserts! The first time I went I got a Philly Steak croissant with a strawberry milkshake. If you're getting a sandwich, prepare for it to get a bit messy on your plate bc they're stuffed! A crispy croissant topped with steak and warm cheddar cheese with a small salad as a side. The milkshake was huge, but the sweet familiar goodness and perfect for a hot day in the summer! Definitely filled me and was perfect for a brunch meal. The second time I went I got strawberries waffles with an iced lemon tea - again, the perfect meal for the summer day and who doesn't love dessert? The waffles were soft and all the components on the plate were perfectly incorporated (the syrup + strawberries + ice cream = yum!). An iced tea is always a safe bet but The Light Cafe served a refreshing tea that I downed in minutes.
The cafe also has some desserts on display for you to take home, such as cakes and macaroons. The only problem is that they only accept cash but there's an ATM there so this shouldn't have that big of a problem. In the end, The Light Cafe is the perfect place to go for any occasion with a small group of friends or even by yourself. It's my new favourite cafe and I cant wait to go back!
