    Raspberry Shortcake
    Nadeen C.

    First time is here in Connecticut, and this was the first place that we decided to try out. This is a very cozy and cute bakery, located to the rear of the property. There is some seating outside as well as inside. Upon walking in, we were not greeted by any of the employees, but that did not bother us because we were just very hungry. We stood at the front of the counter with approximately 4 to 5 employees behind the counter. All employees noticed us, and none of them said a single word. It wasn't until my boyfriend caught the attention of somebody to take our order. Female employee came to the cash register, was very nice and took our order promptly. As soon as the food was delivered to our table, everything was forgiven. The food was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend and I have both ordered breakfast sandwiches and a raspberry shortcake for dessert. And it did not disappoint. If we're ever back in Connecticut, we might not be returning here, but it was a good experience. If we return back, we'd probably like to see what else Connecticut has to offer.

    We loved this spot in the heart of downtown Mystic! This location was within walking distance of Mystic downtown shopping and vendors. We easily found parking in the morning. Lighthouse bakes all of their items fresh in house and offers quite a variety of food and drink options. The environment is homey, warm and welcoming. Their top sellers of breakfast include the Classic OG & the Big 55. They offer a current winter coffee menu as well as your classic go-tos. Their nitro cold brew is also a great pick! If you're a runner, be sure to also check out their Saturday AM run club with free coffee and some post-run event offerings. They have outdoor seating that is enclosed and heated as well as a few tables inside to get cozy. They offer milk alternatives and merch to purchase too!

    Raspberry Bar The shortbread cookie base was nice and thick. The shortbread was soft and not overly sweet. The raspberry jam layer was too thin for the ratio of jam to shortbread. The bar overall was very dry. It was a pretty good bar, nothing to write home about though. It needs a much better topping with a thicker layer too.

    Love the new outside seating away from hustle bustle of main st traffic! And the ciabatta bread is D-lish and quite large for a breakfast sandwich

    Breakfast Burrito
    Jaclyn P.

    Overall 5/5! I am an absolute lover over family-owned businesses, and it definitely makes it 1000% better when I get a nice BRUNCH too!! Lighthouse Bakery has been said to be a hidden gem, and I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT DISAGREE! it might be a little hard to find because it is tucked away behind a carpet cleaning company & to the right of Bravo Bravo, but do not miss an opportunity to come and grab a bite here! The owner was so kind and wonderful, the food was great, and it was honestly the perfect spot for Brunch for me, my mom, and my sister. I had the Breakfast Burrito, which had ground beef, cheese, beans, and egg, and IT WAS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and definitely filled me up! It was quite savory, and I'm not one with a huge appetite, but I definitely would've eaten two! I also had their cappuccino, which was very nicely made (comes without sugar, so you do it to your taste!) & the Tiramisu, which was AMAZING--Lighthouse Bakery's Tiramisu was so yummy, and had the perfect balance between sweet and bitter (like the coffee type of bitter). Honestly, it was probably the best Tiramisu I think I've tasted! The only thing I'll warn about is that there isn't much seating inside, but there is enough outside! Don't let the seating turn you away though; you definitely want to try Lighthouse Bakery before you leave Mystic!

    A hidden bakery in the back part of the lot. Small selections of baked goods and drinks available, but it seems like they definitely make what they are good at. Less food waste and fresher food, so I am all in for that! This place has probably one of the BEST tiramisu desserts I've had!!! We saw two fresh batches being made in front of us in the open kitchen concept, on a Saturday morning. It could probably use a little more coffee flavor. Otherwise it'd be PERFECT! Their raspberry bars were very light and airy, with a shortbread cookie texture. Not over the top in sweetness and without the artificial flavoring. We brought a fresh baguette too and it was made to perfection. My husband says it was like some of the fresh breads he's had from Europe. Unfortunately, the homemade cinnamon bun was very dry, and wasn't rolled with enough cinnamon/sugar for flavor. As you can see in my photo, it almost looked like a sugar brioche. However, we did buy the last one so it was probably a fluke in the batch . Otherwise, definitely give this place a visit it you are in town. They also serve a humble breakfast menu with coffee opts too. Available parking at the back. Great customer service!

    A welcome treat for brunch! Food was yummy, Americano (Ille) delicious and perfectly brewed fresh. Food was made to order and came quickly to the outdoor table we selected. Their pastries, cakes and tiramisu looked amazing and there appeared to be fresh cannolis awaiting their filling upon order. Didn't break the bank and definitely worth the stop.

I appreciate both the…read morewonderful staff and the two friendly locals who graciously steered me in the right direction when my internal monologue became external. With its Latin American focus, I felt like the Peruvian chicken would be the best bet. Plus it was listed first on the menu (unlike concert setlists the best isn't usually saved for last - what's the deal with The Killers opening with Mr. Brightside? - but I digress). This was superb, partly thanks to the salsa verde, but also due to the excellent basil bread. I also enjoyed the mint lemonade. The local customers, like many Yelpers, raved about the Chinese BBQ sandwich and said I should get it next time. I had a moment of indie-rock snobbery and thought I can get Chinese sandwiches anytime in NYC, but I was curious about the emphatic praise. For a second I pretended I couldn't possibly get a second sandwich. So with some self-delusion combining "I didn't eat breakfast" and "these nice people told me to get another one" I got the BBQ sandwich. It, too, was excellent, with a perfect fusing of ham, bread and sauce.

    I was in Mystic on New Year's Eve morning, killing time in between food activities, when I saw…read morePasta Fresca & Piadina in a Yelp search result. Its grinders looked damn good. Since Pasta was in the name, I figured it might be more of a market than a grinder shop and I decided to visit. It was actually more of a grinder shop that sold some fresh pasta and sauces and things that you would expect a grinder shop to have. I honestly thought about walking out without buying anything, but I kept thinking about that awesome looking Italian Trio (basically like an Italian Combo) grinder. I decided to order a small, take some pics and a couple of bites, and save the rest for later since I had lunch plans. This grinder was my ideal Italian Combo. First off, the small was huge. Full size at most places. I ate it over the course of two days. I ordered it with lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, cucumbers, provolone, Oil and Vinegar, Salt and Pepper, and Mayo. The three meats were pepperoni, Genoa salami and capicola. The bread was good, fresh and up to the job of holding the ingredients. There were about six slices of meats, but they folded them around the inside of the bun (cut on one side) so you were really getting about 12 layers in each bite. And the inside was stuffed with the veggies and other toppings. So stuffed that the toppings fell out as you were taking bites. But that was actually great from my perspective, because you could just pick up the fallen toppings and put them exactly where you were going to bite next. I've been to a lot of highly rated grinder shops in CT. I don't think I've had a better Italian combo. The ingredients were all great. It was a well constructed sandwich. You got bits and pieces of most of the stuff in each bite. Ingredients were in the right proportion. It was salty. Acidic. Juicy. Great contrasting textures. This was a text book Italian Combo Grinder. Now if you live near Mystic, getting a grinder from Pasta Fresca is a no brainer because you can take it home. If you're not from the Mystic area, there was a bit of seating. Seating may be hit or miss though. In any event, if you can figure out where you're going to eat the Italian Trio, you're going to love it. Can't believe I've never heard of this place. 5 Stars

They might be a tad bit under staffed cause we did wait a bit before someone got us a table and even to pay and get some of the bakery items was a bit of a wait, but it wouldn't stop me from going again. The food actually came out fairly quickly. The wife and I both got the grilled chicken sandwich with fries and my son got the French toast. I will admit, when my wife wanted to come here I really wasn't in the mood for anything I saw on the menu. We were on vacation and we weren't having much luck with food options the whole time so I was just being picky. That all changed tho when food arrived because that sandwich was excellent and really hit the spot. And the fries.....if you like McDonald's fries, you will like these even more because to me that's what they reminded of when their fries used to be good. My son enjoy his French toast. Will definitely go back. Price was reasonable as well. Oh!! Almost forgot about the bakery items. We got a chocolate chip cookie, a macadamia nut cookie and my son wanted macaroons.

The service was okay while the food came out in a timely manner. I liked that some of the fish items listed the fishing vessel on the menu. Three appetizers were ordered which consisted of a beet pickled deviled egg ($4 each), chilled oysters (Half Dozen $18), and the local fluke crudo ($17). The egg had a crispy clam strip and espelette pepper. This was solid. I thought the clam strip was a little too overpowerful given the size of that and the egg. The pickled beet egg was interesting, and I liked how the filling was also under the egg, so the egg did not move. The Riverhawk oysters were fresh and tasty. The mignonette was simple and paired well. The crudo had an herb mayo, pickled ramps, kelp crisp, and pickled sugar kelp. This was alright. It seemed like fennel or a similar type of herb was used in one of the pickling items, which took over a little bit. The kelp crisp was nice and paired well with the fluke. For an entrée, I had the local scup a la plancha ($37). It came with Marshall Cove mussels, fondant potato, English peas, and a saffron emulsion. This was a nice sized portion. I thought the saffron emulsion was key and went together with everything else on the plate. The mussels were fresh again, and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. It was a well-done dish, but the use of scup made it feel more modest, but maybe that was the point, so what do I know? I also tried the scallop dish that came with green crab crispy rice, chili crispy, and a garlic aioli. The rice was very crispy, and it reminded me of a traditional hibachi rice, but elevated. The scallops had a perfect cook to them too. For dessert, the oyster ice cream ($10) was tried. It had to be tasted when it was on the menu. It had a slight briny flavor, but nothing too overpowerful. The ice cream itself was very creamy with a nice texture. I believe Greek yogurt was used, which probably helped with the oyster flavor that was incorporated. Will I go back? Sure.
