Light is always a great spot to stop in for a delicious and unique cup of coffee or espresso and a tasty treat. They offer seasonal hot and cold drinks and I always love to make this one of my stops during the holidays. The service is always friendly with staff taking the time to answer questions and make recommendations. Even though they are often busy you can usually find a table, comfortable chair or even a sunny spot outside to enjoy your delicious brew and tasty snack.

Wow, this place succeeded my expectations. Even when the drink came out, I was hesitant because of the color of the Matcha. However, the drink was perfectly sweetened, the mango purée was one of the most fresh and not overly sweet ones that I've had. Sure the Matcha taste could be a little bit stronger, but in Baton Rouge this is probably one of the best tasting ones you can get! I highly recommend and would come back.

Light House Coffee, Baton Rouge
Bruce K.

My first "office" of the day, I arrived here early enough to pick a good seat close to the power outlets. Cortado on the menu and when my name was called out a few minutes later, this is perfect. Served precisely the way it should be in a short glass and with another glass of fizzy water. This is a real barista and not one of those "button pusher" types! Over the course of the next hour, Light House Coffee filled up and got chatty. Lots of people talking, a few people working or studying, everyone drinking great coffee. My coffee did its job and over the three hours, I did mine. A lovely busy spot that isn't one of those Green Siren outlets. You will want to get here early to ensure you can get a seat.

A great local coffee shop! Their food is amazing, I am more of a fan of the food than anything here... everything I get is always amazing. I got the bacon quiche and lemonade for breakfast. The quiche was probably the best thing about my day, just so good. On the way out, I decided to get a coffee, so I got my usual cold brew with almond milk. I love to decor in this coffee spot. Not too over the top, but subtle and modern. Such a great college hang out space for catching up or studying. Every month they have local pop up shops outside the store. I love how Light House supports local, and it is great to see all of the local shops!

Super friendly staff, great selection of coffees and tea's. They have all types of toasts here also the prosciutto and fig toast is my favorite and the blueberry scone is scrumptious but they all look and sound delicious. I got a iced black tea with lemon juice which is delicious! Lots of seating inside and they also have outside seating.

Great service must try if your a coffee lover great place to hung out with friends . The stuff is amazing

My favorite place to study as a college student! The aesthetic is super nice but I will say that it is a pretty packed place almost every single day so it's hard to find a seat. I love their staff and the music choice. I usually get a black tea when I study and it has become one of my staple study drinks.

Nice place. Not really for me. They only serve one size coffee, 12 oz. Pastries were good. I had a blueberry scone which was more cake than scone. Coffee was okay. Prices were a little high but competitive for the area. Staff was friendly and service was pretty fast despite being busy. Seems more geared toward college students. Probably won't intentionally be back because I'm a long time coffee drinker with habits and preferences but wouldn't mind it if I found myself there in the future.

Nutella toast and avocado toast
Bobbye A.

The place was cute but overpriced and not that good. My husband got the tomato soup and said it tasted like marinara out of a jar, could not finish it. The iced coffee was also sour even after we returned it for a new cup. The avocado toast was overloaded with balsamic which meant I couldn't even taste anything else and the bacon toast was on the opposite end, under seasoned. All in all, the food looks pretty and service was good, but it is not worth the price.

I always really enjoy this place! It's a coffee shop I bring people when they're visiting Baton Rouge. First if all, the coffee is good! The quality is nice. The baristas steam, and aerate the milk to perfection making great tasting lattes, cortados...etc. And the aesthetic of the place is extra cute and picture worthy! Get ready to have some bomb instagram posts if that's your thing. The employees are so friendly, and are happy to give suggestions if you're not sure what to get. I also love that they sell goods of local small businesses. Things like books, hand-made scarfs, ankara bags...the items vary over time. It's also a great place to work. You'll find plenty locals with computers, and notebooks cracking down and being productive. There are both indoor and outdoor seats. I hope you love this place as much as I do!

We were recommended this spot by some of our local friends. The aesthetics are on point. It was such a popular spot because there was literally nowhere to sit. To be honest, the low review is mostly because of the baristas' lack of enthusiasm & knowledge of their coffee. I really wanted to justify the overpriced coffee, but I could not. It was "ehhh" coffee. I've had better for lesser than that price.

This place is a gem! I've been hearing about it for awhile but never checked it out. I needed to get some work done but had a lot of family in town for the holidays so it was too easily to get distracted at home. I went to light house, found a seat and ordered an iced coffee. The atmosphere is great. One room most people were working and reading. It was more of a quiet area. The main space was a mixture of people working, socializing, and enjoying their coffee items. It does get packed fast but I'll definetly be back. Next time I want to try some of their food items. Their avacado toast looked really good. Highly reccomend.

I had an amazing experience at SoLou! My family and I celebrated our grandfather's 84th birthday…read morethis past Saturday, and I must say this restaurant was an excellent choice. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with stellar customer service that set the tone for our entire experience. Our waiter, Justice, was truly delightful. It was an absolute pleasure being served by him. He was incredibly friendly, patient and attentive, especially with our party of 14, which included children. His attention to detail and welcoming demeanor stood out, and his positive energy elevated our experience. Justice went above and beyond, and his efforts did not go unnoticed! The entire staff working on Saturday, April 4 was top notch. Everyone we encountered was warm, helpful and professional. From the food and drinks to the atmosphere and overall service, everything exceeded our expectations. I can say this was a 5 Star Brunch experience. I will definitely be returning the next time I'm in Louisiana!

The waitress service and the food were both really good, and we appreciated how kind and attentive…read morethe staff was. We specifically found this restaurant because we searched online for gluten free restaurants, so we were excited to see that you offered a separate gluten free menu. However, there are some serious issues with the accuracy of that menu that need to be addressed. When we asked about the pork rinds brought to the table, we were told they are fried in the same oil as everything else. That in itself is your choice as a restaurant, and we understand cross contamination can happen. We were also told the french fries are cooked in beef tallow in a separate fryer, but they are not considered gluten free, which is why they are not listed on the gluten free menu. Again, that is completely understandable. What is not acceptable is having items listed on the gluten free menu that are not actually gluten free due to cross contamination. The pork rinds and cheddar filled tater tots were both listed on the gluten free menu despite being fried in shared oil with gluten containing foods. For someone with celiac disease, this is not a small mistake or a dietary preference issue. My husband has celiac disease, and if he had eaten the pork rinds based on trusting the gluten free menu, he could have become extremely ill and potentially needed hospital care. Our daughter has gluten sensitivity, and she would have been sick for the rest of the night as well. Many people still treat gluten free as if it is just a fad diet, but for people with celiac disease, it is a serious autoimmune condition that causes real physical harm. To the OWNER: please educate your staff and kitchen on what gluten free truly means, and update the menu so customers can trust it. People with celiac disease should not have to risk getting sick because menu items are mislabeled.

The sandwiches were fresh and packed with flavor, the pot pies were rich, creamy, and pure comfort food, and the appetizers were the perfect start to the meal. The whipped Parmesan mashed potatoes deserve their own standing ovation. They were unbelievably creamy, cheesy, and easily some of the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. And don't even get me started on the sweet pies... BOMB! They were the perfect ending to an already amazing meal. To top it all off, our waitress, Sophie C, was an absolute gem! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure our entire experience was perfect from start to finish. If you're anywhere near Baton Rouge, do yourself a favor and eat at Elsie's Plate & Pie. We'll definitely be back for the food the people and the ambiance!

I wish I could leave a better review! Quite disappointed, sadly…read more Very clean and very cute!! I've heard amazing things from multiple reviews and was so excited. (Visiting from out of town). Expected a wait, 20 minutes, no problem! Another 15 to place our order, and another 25 to receive our food. We were there over an hour before we got any food. Ooffff... it's fine. We're laid back and can roll with the punches-they're busy and staff was friendly-it'll all be worth it when the food rocks our socks. Sadly...no. Both grilled cheeses (entrees) were room temp and the cheese was already hardening. It felt as if they had forgotten to deliver the food. Waitress was so kind and took the one off our check. It was appreciated. Boudin balls were great!! Bedford and remoulade sauces were okay. Parmesan potatoes were good!! Brussel sprouts and fries were fine-would have been better if served hot, I think. We did the pie flight and they were all good. Not mind blowing, but good. I always give out second chances-public service and food service is tough and sometimes you just have off days. Worth checking out if you live in town!! But if you're just passing through, maybe just get some pie to go.

Today my wife, son, & I decided to do a blind taste test of 3 local sub shops we've never had…read morebefore that we've heard great things about: Cheba Hut, Jersey Mike's, and Inga's. Our results were all similar; we all agreed that JM was the best of the bunch. My wife and I liked Inga's more than Cheba Hut, while I preferred Cheba. However, when the final scores were tallied, Inga's came in 2nd. I wouldn't say it's a bad sandwich by any means, but I wouldn't say it's great, either. The steak imo wasn't nearly as spectacular as I'd been led to believe. Personally I'd rate it 3 stars, but since my wife and son enjoyed it more than I did I'll give it 4.

I haven't gotten Inga's in a while so as soon as I started craving their delicious sandwiches, I…read morehad to go! I ordered one of my favorites, the grilled chicken breast on white bread (fully dressed) and it was just as amazing as I remember it. I will say, they went up on their prices but it's definitely worth the price. I always get the giant size because I'll either split it with someone or save the other half for lunch the next day. So it's pretty much two meals (unless you're super super hungry and want to eat the whole sandwich in one sitting like I did yesterday:)). They are always super quick too! I called in my order to pick it up and it only took 10 minutes. Also, the woman who is always working is super nice as well! I'll definitely continue to be a regular at this place, one of my favorite spots in Baton Rouge!
