    Discovery this place, check it out the Ube cloud is similar to Orbit Coffee in California. It's Vietnamese coffee it wasn't strong enough but it was good. I wish they had more pastry but the chocolate muffin was good. The lady warm it up and she was thinking ahead she gave me a fork in the bag! I like that!! The place is cute and small few tables. Friendly staff. I'll come back to try different coffee.

    Fun spot! Super friendly staff and a pretty cool menu. I got this chocolate lover "Kool Creation" ice cream cup. Was a good treat on a hot day. They also have lots of great coffee options, haven't gotten to try yet but definitely will soon!

    Use to be called kool bear refresher. The coffee was delicious, had the right about or sweet and coffee flavor. Almost identical to a cozy cloud offered by lineage. But here has way more flavors on the menu to try. From the outside you can't tell this place is small but definitely cozy and very inviting once you are inside. I wasn't the biggest fan of the cookie and croissant- but this isn't a bakery. So I suggest getting a coffee from here taking a few steps to Publix to get a bakery item from there though. Prices are the same as lineage but if you don't want to drive to a lineage this place is definitely better than a Starbucks ice coffee in the same plaza. And no shade on Starbucks because there's a time and place for them too.

    Strong coffee... fluffy foam so good

    We had a chance to stop by during a window as this was a little bit out of our way. It was worth it thought for the White Rabbit cold form special drink they were doing for lunar festival period. I felt that they really enjoyed sharing their passions about coffee and making a good drink. They were so kind about trying to see what the customer would be interested in. The drink itself wasn't the punchy bitter Vietnamese coffee but tasted a lot smooth but still strong af. I definitely got some heart palpitation going after an hour or so. It such a cute place but end of the plaza so kind of hard to spot. I did noticed it was a little more than usual price wise but they got overhead to pay for plus I didn't notice a explicit tip page so maybe thats reason..... of course please give extra at your discretion too! I can't wait to try some of their other cool and special drinks they develop later.

    Viet coffee comes with oat milk already so you don't have to add on the extra charge for milk alternatives. No decaf available. All drinks come with 2 shots so you can opt for a single shot. They have fun exciting flavors & are always changing their menu like a king cake latte for Mardis gras! They have events sometimes like arts night. There's a few tables & couches inside- always well maintained. Staff is beyond sweet. I always feel like family when I visit. Really wish they had decaf though.

    Lisa was amazing! Her and her husband owned this place 3 months ago! Such great service, attentive, conversational, and even gave me the background story on their business. They sell their own coffee beans, have experience with local markets, and have fun drinks like ube, tiramisu, refreshers, and more! Check them out and welcome them to the community! (This is their correct business page)****

    My sister brought me here - this place literally has my new favorite coffee -- they should open one in LA so I can have it everyday - great shop- great location lots of parking - and the 2 girls working were so cool I def will be back while I'm in town

    Was absolutely yummy, love the ladies working there. So sweet. I got a regular chocolate icecream. And then the chocolate lovers. Then different types of drinks and bobas and loved them all. The vibe and ambiance was very aesthetic. Came on a Saturday. Not too many people but still very quick.

    Amazing Vietnamese coffee shop! One of the best in Orlando hands down! The girls in the front are amazing and friendly as well!

    Campfire Latte
    Juliana G.

    This coffee shop is definitely a hidden gem! The coffee is absolutely delicious! I got the campfire latte and it was amazing. They have fun seasonal drinks and I can't wait to go back so I can try them all. It's a very welcoming environment and cozy atmosphere. Great to grab a coffee and do some work if needed. I love this place, definitely go check them out!

    Such a cute cafe! Barista was super nice and explained the menu. I ordered the ube latte and it was perfect, not too sweet or too strong. I would love to try to affogato options next time!

    Katie M.

    Super cute coffee shop that recently opened! Love the ambiance inside. Staff was super helpful in making drink selections. I ordered a black sesame Vietnamese coffee and my husband got the tiramisu. They were good! Definitely want to come back and try the affogato. Only downside is that they are on the pricier side.

    Cute coffee/dessert shop in the Publix plaza. A much needed coffee shop (other than Starbucks) for the area. Always have had excellent and quick service. I love that the drinks aren't overly sweet--just the right amount compared to other places that pack on the sugar. I've had the ube latte and viet coffee..so so good. I've seen that they've hosted some local events at their shop for the community..something that's definitely been lacking so I appreciate their efforts in bringing the community together.

I met with someone who works there and learned that every single meal purchased helps feed a meal in the Dominican Republic! Their menu is huge, diverse and made fresh, so come hungry! They also hire those with disabilities to teach them skills in the workplace! How amazing is that??! They host monthly Christian music showcases featuring local artists, worship nights, bridal and baby showers -- all centered around community and glorifying the Lord. They have 3 sections to sit: social meetups, working on a project or need peace and quiet- i ended up sitting in the middle section so I could work- and it was so perfect. They have outlets at every table making it convenient if you plan to stay all day. I ordered their gf/vegan banana bread and their famous King Julian Vanilla latte and wow - it was probably one of my favorites as I love vanilla lattes! I will definitely be back!

    This area is my old stomping grounds. We used to live in Avalon Park right behind Waterford Lakes…read more Stoked to finally make it out this way to the newest Light on the Sugar location. I was in the area visiting family and wanted to grab some coffee before the road trip home to South Florida. A local business is better than a Starbucks. Bonus is it's my favorite bakery in Orlando so I'm here for it. This Light on the Sugar is located next to the Regal Cinemas in Waterford Lakes. Squished between Charley's Philly Cheesesteaks and Zen Dumplings. What I dislike about this location is the wooden gazebo they built directly in front of these stores. It totally hides the name of the stores and it's not appealing. This made it hard to find too. They should honestly get rid of the gazebos, these poor stores may be losing potential business because people can't locate it. This bakery is the smallest one compared to the original two locations I've been to. It's ok because they still sell most of the same items, just less of a selection due to limited space. They offer the popular cream puffs, pastries, tarts, merch and drinks. On this particular day, I only got the Pistachio Latte and an Americano. My husband likes a good simple coffee with no bells and whistles. The other stuff is too much for him. Ha. I really debated getting pastries for the road but I was just at the Winter Park location yesterday and got an assortment so I was good on pastries. My Pistachio Latte was good, but it was a tad on the sweet sweeter side. I had my husband mix some of his Americano with my latte so it balanced out a little bit more for both of us. All in all, nice new and intimate location with a few tables indoors and outdoors. I still prefer the other beautiful and more aesthetic locations. Good thing this bakery wasn't here when I lived here, I would be broke! Lol.
