    Buffalo Chicken Pizza
    Dallas A.

    The pizza here was pretty average--I got the buffalo chicken pizza and it was pretty blue cheese heavy, so I didn't taste a whole lot of the toppings. On the other hand, the cinnamon rolls here are outstanding. Soft and rich, lots of cream cheese frosting, for a pretty good price! I'll be trying Enliten again, maybe I just got unlucky with the pizza.

    Awesome coffee, great free cookie (do not forget to check-in when you arrive) and delicious pastries. This bakery and coffee shop is nicely attached to a restaurant next door. From outside you won't notice, but when you are inside you can order things from the restaurant and have them at the coffee shop. I liked the artsy vibe, very cool art in the walls and nice atmosphere, plus very spacious. People super friendly there, it gave me a good image of Provo and definitively I am very happy we found this coffee place (I was so sleepy, the snow days were tiring me too much:). The best: supporting the local poets. How? Just insert 25 cents in one of those old school gum machines and you get a ball with a printed poem on it. I got one for me and another for my boyfriend. I keep those as mementos of my stay there. I know my contribution was not great to make a poet rich, but for sure they deserve a free cup of coffee from this "enlitened' place!

    Best place ever

    Stooop. Holy freak. This place is literally the bomb. Not only did they have AMAZING service but just an overall AESTHETIC atmosphere!! Perfect for a corner table-taylors version red album-hot chocolate-fall autumn vibes- poetry slam- enjoyment. Good bread.

    Cinnamon Rolls

    Great little cafe attached/next door to Guru's. I was grateful to find a parking spot right out front and a short line. I just popped in to try a cinnamon roll today, and it was great. It was soft, had a great amount of cinnamon and a great frosting on it.

    I was warmly greeted. The staff is helpful and kind. I ordered peanut butter cookies and the double chocolate chip cookies. For around a dollar each . The prices were great! I ordered one orange cinnamon roll to go. For 2 bucks the cinnamon roll was my least favorite. In my opinion it lacked salt in the bread dough. I couldn't finish it. The peanut butter cookie was the best choice it was moist and delicious . The Double Chocolate Chip Cookie was good but I felt it was over cooked a bit.

    Today I joined a great group of women at The Enlightened​ Cafe for Relaunch: Women are Returning to Work, a United Way course. The 10 of us ordered a variety of sandwiches, salads, and desserts. Overall, the reactions of the group were variations​ on good: The buffalo chicken salad was "super good"; the Cobb salad was "pretty good"; the grilled cheese sandwich was "really good." So that's good. One exception was the grilled chicken, which was a bit dry. For my part, I had the Reuben and a cold brew coffee. Served on a rye bread roll (baked in house) the corned beef was juicy and flavorful with kraut and dressing that didn't overpower or cause a soggy roll situation. In all, a solid sandwich. (Bonus points for a big ole pickle spear!) The cold brew coffee was bracing with few to no bitter notes. Try the creamsicle Cannoli. Mmm. The staff was courteous and efficient. Solid recommend.

    Turkey Pesto Sandwich
    Alexis H.

    Really good. Chill atmosphere. We got the Mulligatawny. Really interesting take on it - Curry and coconut milk and apples! Chips and salsa are great! Turkey pesto sandwich was good as well.

    Cute little cafe & the drinks were served promptly. My almond latte, however, tasted like dirt and was not very good. I'm not sure if this was because of the roast or because their coffee machines needs to be cleaned out.

    Cinnamon Roll

    Cute little cafe attached to Gurus next door. Their giant cinnamon and orange rolls are the perfect treat to share! A great place to get some work done or catch up with friends. Don't forget to tip your staff! They work HARD!

    Sugar cookies

    Co-Located with Guru's Cafe in Provo, it shares some of the same aesthetics. I "checked in" on YELP at Guru's when we had dinner there and was "rewarded" with a coupon for a "free cookie" from Enliten Bakery. Normally, I don't accept gifts or discounts from places I review unless it is a printed coupon anyone can use and this offer seemed close enough to that standard to give it a try. Also, living hundreds of miles away there was not likely another opportunity to use it later. Generally, my view is if I wouldn't buy something, getting it for free with a coupon is "no great deal." It was a busy day for the hard working crew at Enlighten and Guru's and it was also within an hour of their closing. After enjoying a very good dinner I went to the bakery counter to find out what my coupon could redeem? They had a single peanut butter cookie left which had a corner broken off, some sugar cookies, and some gluten-free cookies, one each of chocolate chip, the other was Snickerdoodle. Of all of these the broken peanut butter cookie was the most appealing to me and sugar cookies the least. I also thought to myself I'll take "the damaged one" so they can sell the others. The nice lady grabbed it with tongs and just add she tried to put it in a bag with them the cookie fell to the floor. She was mortified. She asked if I wanted a suggest cookie instead and I explained that would not go over well with my wife who would be sharing it with me. She then offered the two remaining gluten-free cookies, which I accepted. The grace she handled this with is more noteworthy than the cookies. They were good, even two days later when we enjoyed them with decaf enhanced with a little Irish Cream back at home. The bakery also had Sweet Potato Cheesecake which really intrigued me but I didn't have room for after our meal from Guru's and our would not have kept well during our drive back to Cheyenne the next day. While we were still a at the bakery, I "checked in" on YELP and... got another coupon for a "free cookie". The next time were there I'm not going to use it. Instead, I'm going to leave room for desert and try a slice of that Sweet Potato (or some other) cheesecake. Bon Appétit

The flavor was okay overall, but the food didn't taste very fresh. My meal arrived quickly, but it was only lukewarm, and the chicken itself was rubbery. Portion size was good, so I'll give them that. Service was good (the employee working was nice, but he appeared to be the only one there). They were also out of the spam musubi, which was disappointing. We went on a Monday night and were the only people there. The vibes of the restaurant were also quite plain and it was only slightly themed which was surprising for a Hawaiian restaurant. Overall, the price felt high for the quality we received and at this time, I wouldn't go back for dinner. I might be willing to give the bakery aspect a second chance..

    Whoever put up the signs that say, "Try a fermented cookie!" and "The very best chocolate chip…read morecookie!" is a genius. I HAD to try one of these cookies strictly because the signs were enticing me to do so. The cookie was okay. Probably not the best chocolate chip cookie but not the worst. It was more on the cakey side and did have an acidic bite to it, which was unique. However, the sourdough bread is what really won me over! I was able to sample the regular, honey wheat, and dark bread and all were easily some of the best sourdough I've ever had. Crusty but airy, slightly acidic and full of flavor. It was delicious! I'd recommend visiting this bakery for the bread, the friendly and helpful staff, and the smells. (The smell of freshly baked sourdough bread fills the tiny shop from wall to wall.)

    My wife is always looking for sourdough in which she can fall in love. She has found one that is in…read morethe running. This is a unique shop is using time-tested methods in their fermentation, producing a bread that has depth of flavor that also packs a sour punch. The bakers explained that their fermentation methods result in a bread that is consumable by those with a gluten intolerance. We tested the breads available that day, each with their own distinct flavors and loved them, so I would like to know about the experience of other with a gluten intolerance. This charming shop also caries a variety of farm-to table goods like honey, sour cream, goat milk caramels, vegan cheese, milk, fudge, and freeze dried fruits and veggies. So when you head to downtown Provo, stop into the Time Traveler's Baker and get yourself some true sourdough.

It wasn't cloyingly sweet where it would make your stomach sick, which is what you might think when you saw it! Most of the donuts there were filled donuts and I'm not a huge fan of filled donuts because most of the time the combination of the donut and the filling does make you feel sick after eating one. But I heard the check out lady talking about how they made the cream for the donut I tried and I knew it was the one for me! I do wish they had options like a plain chocolate cake donut with chocolate icing. But this is more of a gourmet shop than your local, average donut shop, so I understand why they don't. I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because the checkout lady was a bit scatter brained and didn't ask me if I wanted a receipt. When I asked for one she got even more flustered and couldn't figure out how to give me one and basically said oh well - you just can't have one. I wanted the receipt so I could turn it in to google surveys which pays me money for taking surveys and uploading my receipts. So I was kind of irritated.
