The impressive menu of interesting enthused caffienated or non options are many. The staff was very much attentive busy at work preparing the selections of the patrons. I chose the regular acai bowl and the 16oz Camp fire Night iced latte w/oatmilk(its a seasonal favor). I absolutely enjoyed my purchase. This place offers a very relaxed and quiet atmosphere with abundance of seating. The environment is conducive to sitting with the dazzling sun enjoying the moment at the high top or seating low chairs, doing a little reading or work on your computer. The options are up to you but the vibe and setting is everything. While sitting here enjoying my acai bowl and latte, I watched the lady come in with more beautiful black art pieces. Not that I looked specifically to seek out a female owned cafe during National female month; it was my pleasure to have patronized a dope black female owned business. I highly recommend anyone to come and visit this uplifting cafe. It definitely lives up to its name " LOVE LIFE CAFE"/ LOVE LIFE COFFEE.

The frosting was light and the cake was very moist. We later had the Snickerdoodle cake for my birthday and the cake was on the dry side so that experience was not so good. Their website has a list of all the cakes (with photos and detailed descriptions) and ordering online is really simple. There are a lot of tasty looking options. The cakes come in 6, 8 and 10 inches. We had all 3 sizes. For us 6 inch was good for 4-5 people, 8 inch for 5-8, and 10 inch is ~8-14 (and we had some left over afterwards). The cakes were always ready exactly when requested. They have slices of cake for sale but only for a subset of the cake options. They also have gelato. The interior of the shop is really nice. If we were closer I would like to try it for breakfast or coffee & desserts. The staff members are very friendly. Would definitely go back.

It hasn't been a dealbreaker for me, but a warmer, more attentive experience would really take this place to the next level. Still, definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area!

There was also a beautiful mural. In terms of food, I was really excited to try both the sweet and savory crepes. There was one couple ahead of us who walked in at the same time as us, so while their order was being made, we perused the menu. There was only one employee at the shop making the crepes so their order took awhile (they waited at least 15 minutes for two crepes). We finally got to put our order in and the employee said it'll be 15 mins for what we ordered (chicken & shrooms crepe, shrimply the best crepe, and s'mores crepe). Each crepe is moderately priced but I was pleasantly surprised at how big the crepes were. However, while we were waiting for ours to be made, the couple who got their order ahead of ours came back saying there was a foreign object in their crepe and they wanted a refund because they had no time to wait for a new one to be made. The employee seemed to not be sure how to refund the order and had to make a call which made our wait even longer. It also made me a little nervous for what I'd find in my crepe - but our crepes seemed okay. The employee also forgot to make our s'mores crepe so there was more of a wait for that, but we dined in so it wasn't a huge deal. The service overall could be improved with better staff training and just more staff in general to handle orders even on what they might think is a slow day. We eventually got our crepes and the shrimp crepe was delicious and had a little spicy kick to it which i loved. It also had a little salad in there so half the crepe was cold which I didn't love but could deal with. The chicken & mushroom crepe was also fantastic and had even more flavor and a kick to it. The s'mores crepe was also a perfect sweet finisher to the meal. All things considered, I'd come back once in a blue moon, but once they add more staff and have a more efficient process, I'd come back more often for those delicious crepes.
