I've heard of this place but finally made the visit! I have to recommend their Tiramisu Latte, probably the best latte I've gotten out at a restaurant! Creamy and balanced, I was tempted to get another! We ordered the California Burrito and Big 55 sandwich. The jalapeño aioli paired with the carne asada on the burrito was unreal. Better than they make in Cali! Big 55 was everything you could want in a classic breakfast sandwich with sausage and bacon on a soft ciabatta with chipotle aioli. Last note - the guys behind the counter were so friendly, greeting everyone coming through the door! I swear they knew everyone, and introduced themselves if they didn't. Such a cool environment for a cafe in a place that doesn't always seem "local" based on tourism. read more

Lighthouse Bakery - Tiramisu Latte - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mystic, Connecticut

Lighthouse is superior in all ways. The community is wonderful. Kamal is the best and is always bettering the business with trying new things like a morning DJ set, new specials, and supporting a running club. He always greets us with kindness. We love our weekly trips to lighthouse. Highly recommend Extra shout out to an amazing full sized gluten free bagel too!! read more

Respectfully... what happened? This is psychological damage. I went out of my way to go to Lighthouse because I heard they had gluten-free options. They had gluten-free option, singular, so that's what I got. This plain gluten-free bagel with plain cream cheese ran me $7. I asked for it extra toasted. I got raw ass bread, slightly warmed up, with an insulting amount of cream cheese. So yeah you can get a gluten-free bagel here, but at what cost? (That's a rhetorical question - the answer is $7 & emotional distress). Anyways - I really hope they continue to stock gluten-free items, just with more intention & care. People will go way out of their way for a good gluten-free breakfast. It's gotta be good tho. read more

Lighthouse Bakery - This should be illegal - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mystic, Connecticut

First time is here in Connecticut, and this was the first place that we decided to try out. This is a very cozy and cute bakery, located to the rear of the property. There is some seating outside as well as inside. Upon walking in, we were not greeted by any of the employees, but that did not bother us because we were just very hungry. We stood at the front of the counter with approximately 4 to 5 employees behind the counter. All employees noticed us, and none of them said a single word. It wasn't until my boyfriend caught the attention of somebody to take our order. Female employee came to the cash register, was very nice and took our order promptly. As soon as the food was delivered to our table, everything was forgiven. The food was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I have both ordered breakfast sandwiches and a raspberry shortcake for dessert. And it did not disappoint. If we're ever back in Connecticut, we might not be returning here, but it was a good experience. If we return back, we'd probably like to see what else Connecticut has to offer. read more

Just incredibly rude staff. Very cool building with huge potential but I guess it's hard to get good people. Re your response Sorry I missed that interaction. And based on your angry response I can see my opinion was warranted and that you probably have another bad review coming from those folks. Perhaps we'll have everyone in our group post a review based on this experience and your immature behavior we had to sit through as we ate our breakfast. To anyone reading this. They've edited their comment down approximately 50 times from extremely manic and angry to almost palatable. Bringing in outside aggression and aiming it at your customers will get you bad reviews. Hoping I'm not living rent free in your head. I said the place has great potential. Just hope this small business takes care of its clear problem area that everyone eating inside this morning had to witness. read more

Super friendly staff!! Amazing baked goods too! A must stop while in downtown Mystic!

Love it here. Even though it gets hectic inside they are very quick and kind. Great food and coffee. Its cute inside and they do well with allergies. read more

We loved this spot in the heart of downtown Mystic! This location was within walking distance of Mystic downtown shopping and vendors. We easily found parking in the morning. Lighthouse bakes all of their items fresh in house and offers quite a variety of food and drink options. The environment is homey, warm and welcoming. Their top sellers of breakfast include the Classic OG & the Big 55. They offer a current winter coffee menu as well as your classic go-tos. Their nitro cold brew is also a great pick! If you're a runner, be sure to also check out their Saturday AM run club with free coffee and some post-run event offerings. They have outdoor seating that is enclosed and heated as well as a few tables inside to get cozy. They offer milk alternatives and merch to purchase too! read more

Small cafe with sandwiches and pastries. We had croissants, a coffee and an apple cider chai. The employees were friendly. There's one small bathroom and maybe seating for a dozen people, with some outdoor seating and a fire pit. Croissants were mid but the chai was delicious. read more

Raspberry Bar The shortbread cookie base was nice and thick. The shortbread was soft and not overly sweet. The raspberry jam layer was too thin for the ratio of jam to shortbread. The bar overall was very dry. It was a pretty good bar, nothing to write home about though. It needs a much better topping with a thicker layer too. read more

Love the new outside seating away from hustle bustle of main st traffic! And the ciabatta bread is D-lish and quite large for a breakfast sandwich read more

Lighthouse Bakery - Breakfast sandwich with ham - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mystic, Connecticut

This coffee shop is such a warm and fresh new vibe in Mystic. The staff are extremely welcoming. Since being redone, it has a modern flare and I really enjoyed sitting in there for a bit. I tried a cold brew coffee with oat milk, and it was delicious! Would definitely recommend giving it a try if you're in Mystic!! read more

Overall 5/5! I am an absolute lover over family-owned businesses, and it definitely makes it 1000% better when I get a nice BRUNCH too!! Lighthouse Bakery has been said to be a hidden gem, and I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT DISAGREE! it might be a little hard to find because it is tucked away behind a carpet cleaning company & to the right of Bravo Bravo, but do not miss an opportunity to come and grab a bite here! The owner was so kind and wonderful, the food was great, and it was honestly the perfect spot for Brunch for me, my mom, and my sister. I had the Breakfast Burrito, which had ground beef, cheese, beans, and egg, and IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and definitely filled me up! It was quite savory, and I'm not one with a huge appetite, but I definitely would've eaten two! I also had their cappuccino, which was very nicely made (comes without sugar, so you do it to your taste!) & the Tiramisu, which was AMAZING--Lighthouse Bakery's Tiramisu was so yummy, and had the perfect balance between sweet and bitter (like the coffee type of bitter). Honestly, it was probably the best Tiramisu I think I've tasted! The only thing I'll warn about is that there isn't much seating inside, but there is enough outside! Don't let the seating turn you away though; you definitely want to try Lighthouse Bakery before you leave Mystic! read more

A hidden bakery in the back part of the lot. Small selections of baked goods and drinks available, but it seems like they definitely make what they are good at. Less food waste and fresher food, so I am all in for that! This place has probably one of the BEST tiramisu desserts I've had!!! We saw two fresh batches being made in front of us in the open kitchen concept, on a Saturday morning. It could probably use a little more coffee flavor. Otherwise it'd be PERFECT! Their raspberry bars were very light and airy, with a shortbread cookie texture. Not over the top in sweetness and without the artificial flavoring. We brought a fresh baguette too and it was made to perfection. My husband says it was like some of the fresh breads he's had from Europe. Unfortunately, the homemade cinnamon bun was very dry, and wasn't rolled with enough cinnamon/sugar for flavor. As you can see in my photo, it almost looked like a sugar brioche. However, we did buy the last one so it was probably a fluke in the batch . Otherwise, definitely give this place a visit it you are in town. They also serve a humble breakfast menu with coffee opts too. Available parking at the back. Great customer service! read more

Line out the door. I'm glad there are so many people supporting this business. There were two people working and serving everyone coming in (one cooking, one serving). They were doing a great job. They have a nice selection of breakfasts, sandwiches, and pastries. Their service was friendly. Worth a stop if you're in the area. read more

Wonderful coffee, delicious fresh-baked breads and terrific service. Welcoming ambiance -- can't wait for the reopening!

A welcome treat for brunch! Food was yummy, Americano (Ille) delicious and perfectly brewed fresh. Food was made to order and came quickly to the outdoor table we selected. Their pastries, cakes and tiramisu looked amazing and there appeared to be fresh cannolis awaiting their filling upon order. Didn't break the bank and definitely worth the stop. read more

Stopped by for a quick breakfast bite. Had the bacon egg and cheese sandwich and the ingredients are fresh! They made it in 3 minutes right on the spot. The ciabatta buns were homemade. Topped it off with an order of tiramisu because their baked goods looked so good. This mom and pop shop is a gem. Support local businesses who know how to cook! read more

Says there's open until 2 blue they closed at 1230. Drove 30 minutes because I heard great things about your food. Very disappointed.

this place is truly the best. I never leave reviews, but when I do it is because the place truly deserves it. From the moment I entered the place, i was treated with the best service. The food is fresh and homemade. Everything was delicious and will be definitely coming back. The whole vibe of the place is top notch. read more

Great bakery with delicious breakfast sandwich's. The coffee is wonderful. The staff is friendly and courteous. Cant say enough good things about Lighthouse Bakery. read more

Absolutely love this place. The vibe is amazing right as you walk in and the staff is so nice. The food is so so good as well. Overall great spot to visit would recommend for anyone. read more

listen up. if you're looking for reviews on this place I'm guessing your from out of town, because the locals know the place like it's their kitchen. If you come to mystic to visit our town and don't stop at Lighthouse, you might have fun but you're not getting the full experience. From the first time I ordered a coffee the staff made it clear from their service and conversation that they were not just a coffee shop. lighthouse is a place to really witness the hard work and quality that gives this town its individuality. This place keeps up with the times to give us a comfortable place to get breakfast, coffee and catch up with friends, but keeps true to what it means to be from here. The staff is exceptional, foods amazing, the coffee is sweet, and the treats are amazing, if you've got any question at all about where to spend your time, go there read more

I had a wonderful experience at LHB. The atmosphere is even more inviting thanks to the beautiful new renovations. The fresh, savory bread served daily is absolutely delicious and pairs perfectly with the café's exciting new beverage lineup. Each drink I tried was full of flavor and clearly crafted with attention to detail. I'll definitely be returning soon!! read more

I decided to try. Staff was rude and place was very small and dirty. I have been around the world and this was in the top 3 worst. Go across the street to pop over brunch. So friendly, and really sweet staff. read more

Small but excellent bakery selection. Delicious croissants and breakfast items. My friend said her gluten free bagel sandwich was the best gluten free bagel she has had in her life. It wasn't on the menu so ask for it if you need it. read more

This is a hidden gem. I initially have been on the quest for a bakery that makes good bread. We stumbled upon this quaint place a few days ago, and I'm glad we did! Not only do they make their own bread, they have an assortment of other items on their menu (including sandwiches). We went on a day where they weren't baking bread but we had a breakfast sandwich and we were sooooo glad we did. We usually go to another spot in Mystic for the sandwich but this will be our new place. It's a family run business and you can tell as soon as you walk in. They are genuinely friendly and accommodating. We both orders bacon egg and cheese, however I added sliced turkey to mine. Wow!!!! Delicious!!! The roll was obviously made there and the combination of what I ordered was perfect. Forget the fancy Mystic restaurants and their prices. If you want good food and a friendly low key atmosphere come here. I'll be back for sure!!! read more

Don't recommend. Tight rocky parking lot, popped a tire here. Got a latte to pick me up but it was pretty bad. Small space inside the bakery and it was surprisingly loud for how few people were there. Barista was nice though! read more

My husband and I were on vacation and wanted to have breakfast out. We came up on Lighthouse bakery and decided to stop in. We were greeted immediately by the young gentlemen and didn't wait long at all for our food. Great atmosphere, delicious breakfast sandwiches and wonderful employees. read more

Fantastic breakfast sandwiches I highly recommend this place - and fantastic bread. A little hidden gem.

Good coffee, probably good breakfast sandwiches. But French toast is basically wonder bread momentarily dunked in eggs and then served in a basket designed for deep fried food. Ended up tossing in the trash and finding another breakfast read more

Absolutely the best stop for an active lifestyle breakfast and coffee. The bakery produces absolute delights, and the family owners couldn't be more pleasant and inviting. Do yourself a favor and seek this one out! read more

We were heading back to New Hampshire from Connecticut and we needed a late morning breakfast. Found this place on Yelp. It is very out of sight, if you were just driving by, you might not know it existed. It is a little hidden gem. You can see two gentlemen, working hard behind the counter, making fresh bread. The other one is cooking. The young man that took our order and cooked our sandwiches was so friendly and so kind. They are clearly all committed to fresh food and are hard-working. I love supporting small businesses like this. The bread was had a nice crunch, but wasn't exceptionally flavorful. We asked for scrambled eggs, and it was more fried than scrambled, and the egg overshadowed the sausage. It was decent, but I wouldn't say exceptional. The service itself was exceptional and for that reason alone, I would seek this place out again. read more

Was looking for a place to get food for the kids. At the end of Main Street is this gem of a place for breakfast and lunch. Got BLT on brioche bread and the pastrami sandwich (on the small a side but some said it was tasty). All in all, the kids were satisfied with their lunch. read more

I am so glad I stumbled upon Lighthouse Bakery when walking through Mystic. Man it was the real deal. The egg and cheese sandwiches tasted so fresh and delicious, and the ciabatta bread they came on was freshly baked - soft and flavorful. It was perfectly seasoned too. Maybe the best bacon egg and cheese I've ever had. You need to try this place out! read more

Stopped in to get something for breakfast. Selection was very limited but it was a little later in the morning. Bought two cinnamon rolls. Not the best looking I've seen but thought I'd give them a try. Got them back home and had trouble finding the cinnamon. They were dry and not really that appealing. Did throw out the second one as the first wasn't very good. Being dry and the lack of cinnamon really made it more of just a plain bun then anything else. Don't think there will be a second visit. read more

Weekday morning, ordered 2 iced lattes, 2 breakfast sandwiches and one pastry. They were out of cold brew. 15 min after I ordered the sandwiches I asked to cancel them and cashed out (had to be somewhere)... never got the sandwiches. Coffee and pastry were solid. read more

We got the standard egg sandwich with ham. You could tell a lot of love was put into the sandwich, ciabatta roll, and chopped ham. Me and my wife are in love with local places, but this one just missed the mark. The lighthouse is a bakery, we went for breakfast don't hold it against them read more

This is my new favorite breakfast sandwich in Mystic, hands down, and that's saying something. Homemade EVERYTHING, made right there--wonderful ciabatta bread. Delicious, and amazing value for the prices. Also great for pastry: the case was full of beautiful and hearty-sized treats that were made with a lot of skill and love. read more

Place was super busy that they had to turn away customers since they only had 2 people working and were running low on ingredients. Super friendly and understanding. There was an incident that occured while we were there of a customer that got impatient but they handled it professionally. Food was delicious and would definitely recommend to stop by. If they are super slammed and you have to wait, be patient and kind. read more
