This is my 3rd time visiting Light Heart in the last two years, and I stand firm on my review…read more.. The space is cute and minimalist (this is their OG location that was recently renovated!), and a good place to stop for sips with friends or to get some computer work done (which is what I've done!). There's plenty of wall plug ins for those looking to do work, like me, but also spaces curated for groups to sit and enjoy each other's company. I've had generally good service with the staff here - nothing bad to say! I've had more friendly experiences than the one on my most recent visit, but not a bad thing! I've gotten the same drink all three times I've come here - an iced vanilla oat milk matcha latte. It has consistently been the same, which is hard to find these days! I'd say if you're a matcha snob like me, you won't find this latte impressive, but you will still find it tasty! I'd give it a 7.8/10 - still a good drink, not a deep matcha taste, but the vanilla syrup is super - it is the main flavor of the drink in my opinion.

The kids loved all the sweet breakfast options. Folks were very friendly. Food came out quick. And servers would check in despite being a pay at the counter restaurant. The restaurant had a lot of self seating. Very cute Parisian themed restaurant. Definitely will be back again when we return to Scottsdale.

I've been here a couple times now whenever I'm craving for crepe. As a salmon girlie, I enjoyed the…read moreNordic before, so this time I decided to try the Alaskan breakfast crepe... and sadly it just wasn't for me. Everything together tasted fine, but the dill + capers were overpowering. I'm not even a hater of either, but it was giving *too much*. And for the amount of salmon? I was lowkey expecting more especially since some bagel chains are way more generous with their salmon portions! If you're debating between the two, I'd definitely say go for the Nordic! It also came with a little salad and overall just felt more balanced. I also think the dessert crepes are better for me. That being said, I still absolutely love the vibe here. The ambiance is cute, the service is always great, the staff are sweet, and the Nutella crepe still eats every single time. Maybe this was just an unlucky order for me or this dish would taste better for someone else?

When you go inside, the interior is decorated very eccentric and artistically.

They have a huge assortment of fresh baked items. The quiche was amazing.

I pulled into the drive thru about ten minutes after closing without realizing it. As I started to drive away, Keyla actually came out, waved me down, and asked if I would be okay with a cold brew as a last resort. Funny enough, that was exactly what I was planning to order. That kind of awareness, kindness, and willingness to go above and beyond for someone who was about to work the midnight oil says everything about this place. It was not just great coffee, it was genuine care and exceptional service. This is one of many reasons I continue to highly recommend Better Buzz Coffee Scottsdale.

They're larger than they look in photos, perfectly balanced in flavor and not too greasy. You can tell they're made properly on the oversized hot crepe griddles, and it shows in the texture. Despite being in a tourist-heavy area, the café itself feels tucked away and surprisingly quiet inside. There's also outdoor seating if you prefer. The indoor tables have games on hand--like dominoes and Connect Four--which adds a relaxed, welcoming touch. (I won at dominoes!) Service was genuinely hospitable, and the whole experience felt thoughtful and unpretentious. Definitely a spot we took note of and will be back to.

I think in general it has the typical "snobbstale" crowd. Besides that, the food is amazing and it 100% makes up for the crowd there. We always order the breakfast burrito, it's a 10/10 super flavorful and well seasoned. Their pancakes & French toast are to die for as well. Their coffees are superb and the girl who was our server made our experience wonderful. I'm not sure what her name was but we went on a Monday 04/13/26 around brunch time and she had brunette hair.

Or you can order ahead take it to go Like most coffee shops you can find most all of the signature coffee drinks, tasty pastries, and if you're not a coffee drinker they have smoothies, teas, etc The staff were incredibly friendly and professional. Our order took slightly longer than some of the other coffee shops we visited, but there was only one barista, it was a weekend, and each drink was handcrafted. We certainly didn't mind Everything tasted great, and it was just the pick-me-up we needed to start our day Some tips: If you're into CBD they have a CBD cold brew. If you want to throw a party and need a fun space reach out to them and check out their website for ideas and pursue their gallery They open fairly early (by 7am), and they close relatively late (4pm) Cheers!!

The service was young bright and attentive! Now while we did go on a Sunday it was very very busy, and there was a line to get in, but it moved smoothly and in no time we had our table. They also sell many baked goods at the front desk that we had to snag some before sitting! We chose to sit outside in this very cute outdoor area, plenty of shade and very nice for conversation. We were served quickly and rarely waited for our replacement cocktails. The food was so good, the drinks were perfect. Overall 10/10 would highly suggest going!

I could not tell from the bag if it was or not but I ordered it anyways. I was really hungry but didn't want a salad at 8am. My latte came out in a paper cup and tasted ok.
