The Lights is a restaurant and bottle shop in the Ballantyne neighborhood. We serve breakfast and lunch until 3:00 pm. Our food is grown by neighbors we know and love. A simple menu built to regenerate Us — The Lights definition of true nutrition. We source wines from a collection of the most imaginative and radical winemakers in the world. We stand with their vision and share the will to participate in this experiment of illumination. It’s wines like these – expressions of artistry – that now have a home at The Lights. We invite you to stop in and taste something fresh. Share a few small plates with good company and take a bottle or two home with you. See you soon, The Lights

The Lights Café is only a few minutes from Oro, but it feels like its own little escape. Think hearty brunch, delicious coffee, and the kind of cozy ambience …

This place is a delight!! The food is amazingly fresh and light on the stomach. I walked away feeling so full but not heavy at all. Every single bite was a bit of “wow” on the taste buds. Luis is a fun character and Liz is such a sweetheart. I felt like a regular walking in! We stop in here every Sunday after the Elevation Church service. If you’re one for oatmeal gotta try the Oat Porridge. Their Açaí Bowl I’d indulge so quickly and forget it’s to share lol! The best Chai latte in town hot or on ice! The spice really kicks in to remind you it’s Chai 🙂

Just stopped here for the first time and had a wonderful lunch. The service was extremely considerate and welcoming, and the food and coffee were delicious. I even had a very generous individual pay for my meal, which was an amazing surprise! I will certainly be back!

My wife and I stopped by on a Saturday morning for breakfast at The Lights Cafe. We were seated right away and our service was outstanding the entire time. The gentleman who was helping us seemed to be the owner and we loved how he interacted with everyone there. We went with Burrata Toast, Egg Combo and an order of Sweet Potato Fries. Everything we ate was amazing and the portion sizes were great. We will definitely be back again and would highly recommend The Lights Cafe!

This place was a wonderful surprise. My wife has gluten and dairy allergies and there are lots of delicious options. I got the avocado toast with poached eggs and bacon. She got the breakfast tortilla and we shared the banana chocolate chip muffin. Fantastic. Everything was “made with love” according to the owner and I could taste it. He wa a wonderful guy as well. It was clear he loved his work. We definitely will go back.

Great experience! Our waiter, Luis, was super friendly and funny. We came on a Tuesday for brunch/lunch, and while the restaurant was nearly empty, the food and service were excellent, even better than my visit about three/four years ago under different ownership.
The layout feels fresh, though it’s still a bit small. They have freshly made juice, coffee and the food were super delicious. The menu also offers great options for those with dietary restrictions.
A pleasant surprise, definitely worth checking out!

I was early to my tax appointment and stopped for a coffee and breakfast.
Immediately upon entry Luis treated me like family or a close friend, even with it being my first time there. He also treated the other guests in the same way.
The location is warm, clean and inviting. All the tables are preset for enjoyment.
After telling Luis I wanted a Latte and healthy breakfast he Recomended a Cuban roast and the Avocado Toast on vegan bread to which I added a poached egg and bratwurst. OMG!!!!!! So GOOD!!!!
Even the men’s room was clean.
I’ve made plans to return this weekend.

Another exceptional experience at The Lights Cafe. Driving an hour for breakfast is so worth the Cuban coffee, breakfast dishes and ambiance but what truly makes this location is the family, Luis and Lizette, that operates this wonderful establishment. The love that is put into every beverage and meal is felt making you feel like part of the family.

Delicious food and probably the best over medium eggs I have ever had. Try the French toast, it’s so light and fluffy! Wonderful staff as well!

This is a diamond in the rough, tucked into a shopping center with a grocery store and other ordinary businesses. The Lights has become a family favorite of ours for a special treat. The food, service and atmosphere are perfect. We feel transported every time we come here. The best sweet potato fries, Cuban sandwich and French toast around! 10/10 recommend!

Food was great, they have good breakfast options. I just loved their acai bowls which includes great combination of fruits and toppings. Their chicken sandwich was fresh and tasty. Their coffee and mocha latte was good and we had a good time. Their customer service was top notch and the laduly who took our order explained us all the options and answered our questions patiently. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

Simple breakfast for two was $42.00 including tip. $17.00 for overcooked scrambled eggs, two pieces of bacon and undercooked pale waffle served on small salad plate. Eggs were not scrambled. They were served like a small overcooked omelet with nothing in it. Other breakfast, $15.00, was over med. eggs with brat and potatoes/peppers and one thick hard piece of bread. Second breakfast was ok but not good enough for a return visit. Everything is served on plastic plates, which no one minds, but not for a $42.00 breakfast. I should have known I was in trouble when wine bar had mood lights flashing on bottles of wine. If you are curious, try lunch because breakfast is sadly represented.
