This is because the food is made to order and out of this world. I typically don't play around upon delivery. The service is the best hospitality I've experienced since I was a server giving A+ hospitality. They're warm, aware and focused on their customers. The ambiance is adorable, feminine and rich. Hands down my favorite place in SOMA/Essex County

Person at counter was very accommodating. We had asked her how long because we didn't have a lot of time and they was a little busy and we were going to go somewhere else and try it another time but She told us she would get it out soon . She put the order right and it did come out soon. It is very nice and interesting in there. When you walk in, they have a beverage area that has an extensive menu.. every type of coffee you can think of ,tea and other drinks . Then beyond there they sell clothing and a few specialty items . Small area , resembles small boutique ,that had some very nice things.

Finally got to experience this place after hearing of it for more than 2+ years! I've heard at…read moretimes this Coffee spot can be pretty packed, so I feel like I came on a really good day. First off: Service. I told the employee that this was my first time there, and they were more-than-happy to help me make a decision for my order. Patient and walked me through. Second: The Food. Let's get into it. 1) Cassava Latte ($7.50) - I was so pleasantly suprised at this drink; described as "(i)nspired by the Filipino dessert cake, made with condensed milk and coconut." The first sip, and I was intrigued! It was perfectly sweet, and the perfect mix of that coconut-dessert taste that cassava typically delivers! It tasted genuine, if that's possible. 2) Sinigang Croquette ($5.00) - This was interesting. Described as "Pork and Gabi (taro) shaped into a patty, rolled in Japanese bread crumbs, and deep fried. Served with our in-house sawsawan (dipping sauce)", it hit all the right notes. To be honest? $5.00 for 1 felt a bit steep. I'd pay $7.50 for two, though! 3) Boy Bawang Shio Pan ($7.50) - This was the most curious of all my purchases. Described as an "(i)n-house salt bread rolled in garlic and corn crumbs, filled with roasted garlic butter, topped with corn cheese whip. Inspired by the popular Filipino snack: Boy Bawang. THIS ITEM I SING ITS PRAISES. I am an absolute lover of the Boy Bawang Garlic Flavor Corn Snack --- much more pungent than anything Corn Nuts could ever offer. This Shio Pan absolutely delivered with its roasted garlic flavor! And as soon as you take a few bites ---- you get hit with that roasted garlic butter --- and let me tell you, they are not shy about their filling! Absolute master class --- but it's only for a limited run. You should definitely try! Third: Ambiance - The Cafe is quaint --- and has a seating area that could maybe fit between 18-24 people? It's just along the side of the business, but I managed to get a table for myself. Ayala, you did not disappoint! Can't wait to try your Sisig Flatbread for the next round!

I came into this place with very high expectations because it was ranked globally on beli. It was…read moregood, but it did miss a bit. First the good: The food was good! I had the sisig flatbread and the pork croquette. The sisig flatbread had very unique and complex flavors. I thought it was very creative. The croquette was fresh and tasty, but it was truly the sauce that came with it that was the star of the show. It bold and vinegary and tasted great with the sisig flat bread as well. I tried a bit of my friend's pandan waffle and it was quite tasty! I could really taste the pandan. Now the bad. The ube latte was mediocre. I asked for mine with matcha, but I really couldn't even taste the matcha. I think next time I might try their other drinks to see if there is a difference. However, I was really expecting better. Overall: I'd say the food is better than the drinks, which is a bit of a disappointment because I was hoping for both to be out of this world. The service was good and the staff was very kind. I also enjoyed the vibe of the restaurant as well.

There is spaces in the front on a sidewalk but signs there to not allow parking. Other street parking is a rarity due to it being off a busy main street. Nonetheless, the spot is very cute, with a floral wall with an orange couch for picture opportunities. There is ample seating, 2 seater, 4- seater and some high-tops. Wifi is available and free so this is a great working spot. I ordered the cappucino and the chicken mozzarella sandwich. The sandwich took a while as my server forgot to put my order in. Also, the sandwiches are pre-made and refrigerated. My cappuccino was pretty good and sandwich was good. Overall, a nice vibe for a coffee shop. Close to the Orange Train Station

There is almost always music playing and I really appreciate them taking orders over the phone and online. They also have this cool complimentary option of personalizing your cup with a black & white photo of you if you ask. I've also had the turmeric latte and the avocado toast which are worth getting again. The toast was fresh and flavorful. They also have an enclosed booth that looks like it seats 4. Great for a little open privacy. The couches are quite comfortable as well. They have punch cards which is good, but I'm terrible with remembering so it would be great if they went digital with rewards. Maybe 1 point per visit or 1 point per $1 with tiered rewards. Would love to see more vegan options on the menu, maybe a cinnamon roll lol.

I will definitely have to go back and try their coffee, but I am confident it will not disappoint. It is a smaller coffee shop, so seating is somewhat limited, but I went on a Saturday afternoon and it was not busy at all. I wouldn't say the space is all that aesthetic, it certainly has more of a chill, laid back vibe. But there are very cool paintings along the side wall, and even a little gondola lift booth that I think is very unique :) They also have a section with a bunch of games to play at your table too, which is cool!

My most recent experience warranted a beyond frustrating experience that has led me to change my perspective of this business. Most recently, I decided after many times of horrible counter service, maybe a pick up order ahead of time, using Square, is best. Placed the order and drove 30 min to pick it up. Arrived at Forum and the kid behind the counter says "oh I didn't make it because we don't have the ingredients" !!! Not a phone call, nothing. Then he offered to make me something else, both of which were incorrect- this took 25 minutes !!!! 25 minutes to make two drinks- wrong. I was patient, he was alone, however last visit was similar with two people behind counter. The coffee is good. Service is horrendous.

REVIEW UPDATE: Last…read moreweekend my husband and I stopped in Light Bulb Coffee Shop. He got an Americano. I asked the barista what she would recommend - she said an Iced Chai with flavored syrup. I went with her recc and went with pistachio. It was good. We sat inside and the place set is in full Halloween mode. Plus there are neat tabletop games and a legit piece of history inside. Another day, I stopped in to pick up drinks to go for a day trip car ride. An Americano for him (again) and a Mocha Latte for me with almond milk. I normally don't get lattes but I'm glad I did because it was really well made. Perfect on a fall morning. I would recommend checking Light Bulb Coffee Shop out if you have chance!
