This was our second visit of the weekend and everything was delicious both times. Definitely adding to our Rolodex of places to return to and highly recommend!

So that means everyone loves Nana's. Which means that, on a very rainy weekend early afternoon, we ended up waiting quite a long time to order and then to get our food but ... I suppose it was worth it (this is high praise coming from someone who almost never believes waiting in a long line is actually worth it). My friend and I split the spicy Caesar kale salad as a starter. I cracked up when I saw "massaged kale" as one of the ingredients. But all jokes aside, this was one of the best kale salads with abundant dressing and, in lieu of croutons, breadcrumbs and cashew parmesan. It tasted pretty indulgent and rich but you can certainly fool yourself into thinking it's actually healthy. I got the tomato sandwich plus bacon (so a BLT without the L) and it was pretty good, though I do wish they cut the bread a little thinner so I could pick it up and eat it as a sandwich. As it were, I just used my knife and fork - certainly more civilized. The pizza was also not bad, though I wish there were some more of the toppings - heard it's leagues better than Mystic Pizza. There are a few tables inside but be prepared to wait. When it was peak rush hour, there were two lines inside, one for the bathroom and one to place an order. Even though they were so slammed, the staff couldn't be friendlier. Our waitress in particular came by often to see how we were doing. Parking lot also filled up. We parked in the Mystic train station and then walked over.

The help stood around talking after I ordered my pumpernickel bagel with scallion cream cheese and when she was good and ready {maybe 2 Minutes} she decided to toast my bagel but then she left and another person took over. The scallion cream cheese came out of a big tub and at $1.75 per serving which by the way was a very small amount, it should have been hand mixed with fresh scallion. The Bagel was run of the mill ordinary with very little flavor. There are a lot of better bagels on the market. I wish these young people well and my words of advise are not to worry about how much money you make because when you create something people want the profits will shock you. People don't mind paying higher prices for higher quality. I will try it again in a month or so and if nothing changed it will be my last. Again, I wish them Success !!!

Having stopped by Lamplighter a few times now, I can confidently say that they are the perfect fit to take over the space!

When it comes to Mystic, it is hard to find spots that feel more like home than a tourist attraction. Lamplighter is that new spot for me. I can't wait to come back again soon!

This is a huge store with a bunch of different rooms/spaces to sit in, including an outdoor patio which was very cute. I did not study here, but it would be a great spot. Lots of seating and outlets.

I personally don't love cold brew, but it tasted good, just very light. They also have a bunch of other coffee shop drinks along with food and smoothies.
