No doubt in rating five stars! Staff is always friendly and helpful, food and coffee is delicious and fresh! The quiche is excellent! Indoor and outdoor seating, and bagged coffee for sale! My family loves the cheesecake, it is the best! Overall a great experience!

Damn good coffee good service no complaints and they were busy and thats usually a pretty good sign on The pricey side for a cup of coffee but considering I did not have to drive out of my community to get it just worth it no complaints

Tucked away in town center in Lake Carolina. When you open the door, you are greeted with a cozy and carefully decorated coffee shop with antique tea cups and other trinkets for you to browse and purchase while you wait for your drinks and food. Friendly prices and good coffee and muffins! I would def go back and support this cute local gem.

You know that it’s gonna be a good day when you get a muffin and an iced latte from the lighthouse Café! The staff is always wonderful. The coffee is perfectly made every time! I’ve come here a few times and I am never disappointed! Thank you for being a staple in Lake Carolina!

Really good experience here. I love the decor, tea and service. I got a pretty good London fog latte here, though a bit on the sweet side. I only wish there were a few more places to plug in a laptop or phone charger. Other than that, great place! Definitely recommended.

The cafe is such a cozy neighborhood gem. I tried the blueberry muffin that was absolutely spectacular filled with fresh blueberries and homemade goodness. I also had the vegetable quiche such was scrumptious and hearty. The cappuccino was perfectly made. I will be back on my next visit to the area!

The Lighthouse Cafe is probably one of the most peaceful and amazing places you will ever visit. The family that operates is a humble, hard working, and just amazing.Food quality is top notch and they always seek to make it better for everyone.The coffee is the best in town.

The atmosphere of the Lighthouse Cafe is identical to indie coffee houses in major cities. The owners and staff greet their customers and are quite simply wonderful people. Perfect for a quick coffee or tea, or a full meal (multiple sandwich options, all are terrific). I recommend their brownie as well. Check this place out, and make it part of your regular routine. Lake Carolina has been waiting for a cafe of this quality for a long time. Welcome, Lighthouse Cafe!

This café was an unexpected pleasure. I stopped in yesterday morning for a coffee with my daughter and ordered a scone for both of us blueberry. It was one of the best things Ive ever put in my mouth. I love it when a business goes the extra mile to create an environment and a product thats worthy of their name. Congratulations you guys! You knocked it out of the park

My wife and I went for coffee and breakfast. The staff here was extremely friendly and courteous. Prices are quite reasonable and the coffee selection is quite good. The coffee is delicious and hot, and the muffins we had were warmed and possibly some of the best we’ve had. The service, prices, staff, speed, and food were all perfect!The shop itself has plenty of seating and is extremely comfortable and relaxing. The staff will check on you, bring your drinks and food to you and couldn’t be friendlier! We will definitely be making this a regular spot.

The atmosphere, staff, and food were great! Especially the staff which is why I will give it at least 2 stars. But the internet is horrible. I came to get work done and spent 2 hours just trying to get through what would have actually only taken me 20 minutes elsewhere. So I ended up leaving because I couldnt get through anything. The chai latte was also VERY weak and just tasted like water and milk. They were super nice though and remade it for me, the new one wasnt much better. Its a nice cafe and I would return if I didnt have work to do. Otherwise, if I have studying or work to do I will likely visit somewhere else.
