Lightbox Cafe

Delicious vegan cafe! One of the best smoothies I’ve ever had. Gluten free options too.

Very cozy, small restaurant with plants, books & seats in nooks. I should have taken pics, but so impressed w/ the food I forgot. Chose here because of gluten free/ dairy free needs. Got the lox beet salad. I felt it was pricey at $16, until I got it at the table. Packed with spinach and beautifully seasoned beets, tomato, onions, hummus, dressing and more. Big bowl, no iceberg or romaine hidden in there. Truly a hearty meal, and so flavorful it raised my expectations of 'salad'. Partner got a chickpea brownie, the kind of dessert that could be great, or terrible, and again, pleasantly surprised. Rich, fudgy brownie with a peanut butter bite and subtly sweet, not beany. I was tired & ready to be disappointed bc allergy-eating is so hard in restaurants, but everything was so nice! Final touch was asking for the brownie recipe & a lovely conversation with the owner. I hope their business continues to grow. Cafe entrance has a ramp that could accommodate a narrow wheelchair, stroller, or cane/crutch user, as could the first three tables. The bathroom is not accessible to wheelchair users, hope that changes someday soon, it's a tough renovation in an old place, just want everyone to try their food ❤️
