Everything I've tried is delicious. I am not a vegetarian but I haven't tried anything I didn't like. Everything is fresh, local or personally grown, and delicious. The bread, the pastries, the food. My favorite food is the quesadilla. It has cheese, vegetables and comes with salsa. I get it with guacamole. I also love their cheese danishes. Try anything, it's all delicious. read more

I could not stop myself from writing about this place. I am here for few days and will be going back to this cafe for every lunch and dinner. Today me and my wife had a Potato Salad and Pasta. No doubts it was the best Potatao Salad and Pasta I ever had. The best part is that everything is organic and vegetarian. They donot use any meat, fish or eggs. I have also tasted tea cakes and biscuits from this bakery and they are super delicious. If you ar epassing this area, STOP and EAT! They offer: * Fresh baked bread from our wood-fired brick oven * Homemade desserts and pastries * Vegetarian cafe * Organic, fair trade coffee and espresso drinks * Deli salads * Fresh, organic produce and greens * Hand-dipped Ice Cream * Bulk foods * Natural foods * Convenience Items * ECO-Friendly Products * Local foods and hand-crafted items read more

You can't even imagine the feeling... As a vegetarian when I look at the menu in a restaurant the first thing I see is everything I can't eat (or maybe I should say won't eat...). When I walked into Lighthouse the first time and realized that EVERYTHING on the menu was fair game I felt like I had discovered nirvana! You can't imagine how many places include "animal products" in things that should be safe like minestrone soup and fried rice --here I didn't even have to ask! My first visit I tried the Reuben sandwich and cheesy zucchini soup and both were amazing. A couple friends showed up, and even though they are meat eaters they were throughly impressed with the veggie burger, grilled cheese, and salad that they had. So, three days later I had to return on my way out of the area for one more lunch, this time bringing my husband. We both had veggie burgers that were full of flavor and on fresh baked buns. However, the soup was the highlight for me again. I even asked if they had a cookbook for their soups and was told "not yet"... I will be buying one if it is published! So, if you couldn't tell, I highly recommend this place! And, don't forget to get a coconut chocolate chip cookie or carrot cake to take home as well (both were amazing!). read more

Oh, my goodness! There isn't a menu item that I've tried, that I didn't like! My favorites are the Powerhouse Sandwich and the carrot-ginger-squash soup. And their bread is divine! read more

This is a very friendly place and very very clean the food is excellent fresh break bed every day and also pastries good hot coffee summertime homemade ice cream highly recommend read more

Must eat / must stop if you are in the area around brunch/lunch time. Everything is vegetarian and sooooooo good! As a meat lover, I'm embarrassed at admit I didn't even notice it was a veggie burger that I was eating the first time I went. I try to go once a month (if not more!) Always a wait, but it's worth it. Super cute little patios to sit at outside on a nice day. I have not had one thing on the menu that wasn't delicious -- grilled cheese, all the homemade soups, quesadillas, veggies burgers (especially the BBQ one!), powerhouse sandwich, club... did I mention the homemade breads and danishes and sticky buns and cookies.... ok I might have a problem. Go and see for yourself. Heads up --- line will most likely be out the door on the weekends! read more

Keeping this one short and simple: Wonderful service, delicious food, the whole menu looked healthy & mouth watering, I wanted to order everything! Will definitely be returning every time I'm in Roseburg. read more

Some of the best bread items I've ever had. The cashire couldn't put our loaf through the bread slicer because it was so warm it would upset the slicer machine. That's how fresh it was. The olive bread had tons of olives in it. The sourdough went great with butter and jelly. The pastries were out of this world, especially the sticky bun and raspberry danish. This place is amazing. read more

You know the pastries are top notch when you eat them two days after purchasing them and they STILL taste DEVINE!!! Sooooo worth the drive for chai, bread and pastries!!! read more

Amazing bakery and vegetarian food. Even there limited menu is awesome. I had a "club" sandwich. It had roasted veggies and tofurkey. Yum!! Topped it off with a plum pastry. This restaurant never fails to give great food and friendly service. read more

On the way from Portland to San Jose we stopped here for lunch. Excellent all vegetarian food, one of the best Sandwich I have tasted, I was a little hesitant to drive 4-5 miles off the freeway but it was all worth it. We enjoyed our lunch out side in a sunny area with lovely flowers butterflies and plants. The service was great everyone help with smile on their face, it felt like that we were enjoying food at a family gathering. From now onwards this will be a must stop for when driving up north from California read more

Lighthouse Center Bakery - Outside - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Umpqua, Oregon

This place is amazing, fresh pastries and bread daily (some of the best sourdough I've tried!). Their sandwiches, salads, wraps, and soups are all wonderful. The food is all vegetarian and/or vegan and even though I don't subscribe to either of those practices, I haven't had a meal I didn't thoroughly enjoy! In the summertime they make gelato in house, which pairs nicely with their espresso! The staff is warm and welcoming and always make you feel at home. All that paired with the beautiful scenery of Umpqua truly make this a special place, and I'd wager one of the best for miles around read more

Delicious, spotless, and a beautiful outdoor garden to eat in. You won't be disappointed!

This is the best restaurant in the area hands down. Everything is always fresh, and the staff are the nicest around. The building is always clean and it never takes that long even when they're packed (which is often.) Be aware the portion sizes are pretty robust. Do yourself a favor and give it a try. No meat here but try the veggie guacamole burger. It does have vegan mayo so if you don't like that stuff (like me) get the mustard on it. Their mustard is my favorite from anywhere. The only thing slightly negative I can say concerns the consistency with the side potatoes that come with the "burgers." Sometimes they're delicious. Other times they're under seasoned some. Not a huge issue. The soups are always very fresh tasting and usually really good. I recommend the Mung Bean if it's available. read more

It's not surrounded by water and has no beaming light but I'll let them get away with the name anyway because their food lights the way to heaven! (I know, I really tried too hard on that one, but seriously!) I do want to thank my yeep friend Michele R for her review because I would never have known about this wonderful place. I certainly would not have found it as it is off the beaten path, despite the supposed lighthouse to guide me. Everyone else found the restaurant though as it was hopping when we showed up. The bakery puts out incredible bread and cookies! Baked goods were coming out of the oven piping hot the whole time we were there. They did run out of the jalapeno cheese bread though. Maybe that does not get as much attention due to the peppers. They believe in sustainable/local and all that beautiful stuff. Oh and many of the servers looked quite beautiful, probably because they ate so well. They all follow a certain religion, much like some yoga persuasion, I was told by the cashier when I asked. He also stated that he did not give up his previous religion. He just also embraced this one. You walk in and there are lots of organic products that you can purchase, including even things like legumes, pasta, nuts, rice, etc. from the bins. There are herbs, spices as well as other grocery items. You head to the cashier and place your food order there. They will then hand you a gourd with a number on it and will find you. We sat outside since it was so gorgeous. Their grounds are very nice as well. The food was outstanding. I had their vegetarian reuben and squash soup. Best squash soup. They know that vegetarians like spices and herbs. Some vegetarian places do not indulge us with that. Don't ask me why. Last time I checked spices were vegetarian too. Every bite I took made me feel like I was being cured for all my illnesses I've had. Very healthy and very delicious. We walked out of there with 2 loaves of their bread, one was a walnut vanilla and the other was a raisin bread. We made incredible french toast for breakfast the next day. This place is a guiding light for your stomachs. Our ship came in when we found this cafe/bakery. Trailing off with the end of nonsequitur bad puns.. read more

There are few small-town culinary treasures in the world and this is one. The employees are genuine and extremely gracious. The Gelato selection is superb, the baked bread and delicatessen muffins and pastries are delicious. The vegetarian cuisine is loved by long time meat lovers. I love it. read more

Well worth the significant drive off I-5 well north of Roseburg. Nice for a country drive day. Note the hours are currently just 10-3 Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Very clean place with currently only outside seating or takeout. Limited menu but all is excellent, and vegetarian. Danish and apple turnovers are great and the fruit is largely grown on site. Homemade soups, empanadas, wraps. Very good baba ghanouj (eggplant dip) though not as smoky flavored as I prefer. (My daughter thinks what I prefer tastes like an ashtray! )I have not tried their homemade ice creams but they are supposed to be very fine. Their bakery breads are very dense and some are quite large loaves. The seeded variety is huge and very reasonably priced. Overall pricing is somewhat high but quality ingredients cost more. They do sometimes run out of some pastries or breads or cafe items so best to come earlier rather than just before closing. There seems always to be a small line to order, sometimes means a short wait. Service once ordered is pretty quick. There is a lovely garden with tables and seating behind the building and any cafe orders will be delivered there to you when ready. Limited plastic utensils are just spoons and forks. Cutting any wraps or empanadas is tricky without even plastic knives. read more

Growing up in Sutherlin, coming back and going to the Lighthouse feels like walking in the twilight zone. In a area dominated rednecks with pickups trucks, fast food and chain restaurants, and Wal-Mart lovers, lies this little vegetarian bakery in the middle of the country....and it's packed to the gills every day they are open! And not just by the random hippies in the area, by the good ol' boys too. I saw a 300 lb logger in Husqvarna suspenders eating a Veggie Club! WTF is going on? Although I am still stumped on how anyone ever got a bunch of backwoods ultraconservatives to walk into a vegetarian bakery and try it, it's not surprising that they keep coming back once they have. Their fresh baked breads are fantastic, their food is made to be good (not just vegetarian good), and they have a pretty impressive selection of health food items that is hard to match within 100 miles of there. Shit, they had items I can't find at the Whole Foods by my house. I couldn't be happier to see a place like the Lighthouse raise the standard on what eating out in Douglas County means these days. Local ingredients used to make fresh food daily by people who care. You're movin up in the world Umpqua! read more

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant/store on our way to some hot springs in OR. We were starving and lost when we walked into what we thought might be some kind of community center; were pleasantly overwhelmed with what we found inside. They use as many organic, seasonal, and local ingredients as they can get their hands on: and it shows! We split the quesadilla and a cream soda. Here is their description of the quesadilla: "A flour tortilla with grilled onions, mushrooms, spinach, & mozzarella cheese, garnished with fresh parsley and served with homemade salsa, & sour cream." Yes, it is just as delicious as it sounds. Plus, it was garnished with fresh flowers. Can a tired hungry traveler ask for more? read more

My favorite bakery in the Umpqua Valley. From pastries to sandwiches, salads and cookies, I haven't had anything I didn't like. Usually a piece of carrot cake or a sticky bun is my go to, but their vegetarian Reuben sandwich is also delicious! Very nice and friendly staff as well. If the sun is out, check the seating area in the garden behind the bakery. read more

Found this place while we spent a weekend wine tasting in the Umpqua Valley. Food was good (probably excellent for the area) but we're spoiled by Portland's standards. I'm a vegetarian and BF is not. He got the veggie burger with three cheeses and I had the portabella sandwich special. My sandwich was incredibly messy (used like a dozen napkins) but the bread was grilled and saturated with oil. I tried to sop some of it up but the bread wasn't giving it up. I'm a bread baker and wished I was able to taste the actual bread over the oil. Ended up with a stomachache later but I do admit to being sensitive to excess oil. BF said the veggie patty tasted like it wasn't made "in house" and he felt that his home fries (came with the burger) were also very oily. Again, I reiterate that we regularly have access to fresh, well-cooked food so our standards may be a little high for the Roseburg/Umpqua area. Vegetarians and vegans will have no trouble eating here since the Lighthouse Center Bakery doesn't offer any meat! If we're in the neighborhood again, I think I'll order a salad and soup to avoid all that oil. They do a brisk business and seem to be very popular. We took the only open table available even before we ordered our food. read more

What an absolute gem. This used to be a dumpy gas station that received a COMPLETE renovation. Wooden shelves, new flooring, custom display shelves, and a hand built wood burning oven in the back add up to amazing food. They have a great selection of canned, dry, and fresh goods you can take home. They also offer a great menu (mostly salads and sandwiches), pastries, and some of the best bread you will ever have. We had a veggie burger with pinapple, teryaki, and mayo. Also the California Salad which was perfectly dressed. You won't find many places like this. Absolutely beautiful. read more

This place is one of the few reasons why I choose to stay in Roseburg. The food is excellent. The veggie burgers are to die for. I haven't yet had anything I didn't like. However the wood fire pizza is da bomb! read more

I am an extremely picky eater and the lighthouse is one of the ONLY restaurants in Douglas County that provides the quality I believe a restaurant should. Everything is perfectly fresh, the presentation is lovely, the place is clean, the price is reasonable; what more could u ask for? The menu is all vegetarian, but don't let that stop u. Their Ruben sandwich is to die for. They have some magic way of making their meat substitutes - u will be amazed. If u are looking for massive quantities of fatty meat and potatoes, this isn't your spot, but if you want to delight in homemade breads, fresh picked veggies, Asian "chicken" salad, home fries and creamy pumpkin soup, then this is the ticket. read more

Excellent food, non-pretentious vegetarian cafe. Lovely and inviting decor. Looks like a sweet country store, with outdoor seating and sale of bulk spices and teas as well as incredible food. Staff very kind and accommodating; quick service. Gluten free and vegan options easily available. Huge portions. Very reasonable prices. Amazing breads and baked goods all made in-house! Absolutely wonderful cafe, will definitely be back! read more

Lighthouse Center Bakery - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Umpqua, Oregon

My favorite thing in Roseburg! Can't wait for their iconic sandwiches to be back in their menu!

Very worth the drive out of town. A diamond in the rough. Artisan baked goods and thoughtful atmosphere. Don't miss the garden seating in back. read more

Three years ago before moving to Roseburg and this placed fascinated me. While I cannot remember what I first got I have gone there a number of times with friends and family, I have gotten the chocolate chip cookie and it was delicious the chocolate was gooie and there's walnuts which made it so tasty. The Veggie Club is wonderful and very yummy. Their homemade bread is so good! One of the things Lighthouse is known for is their sticky buns, order it warm and with coffee, absolutely amazing. I have had no complaints about their food, and I'm looking forward to trying more. The food is organic and vegetarian, stop by there and try something, you won't be disappointed. read more

Lighthouse is a wonderful and healthy place to eat. They have amazing food and a wonderful atmosphere. The garden outside is beautiful and a wonderful place to eat and relax during the summer. I absolutely love that we have such a restaurant in Douglas County!! read more

HOLY CRAP! This is incredible!! I got the guacamole burger ( gluten free) and it was phenomenal!!!!!! Friendly staff quick service etc. the potatoes are incredible. Also I'm not vegan in the least I'll have a bacon cheeseburger any day and I didn't expect to love a vegan "burger" BUT I DID! It's so good!!! read more

This place is a huge break from the norm! If you want meat..... Uhhhhh... This isn't the place for you! However, if you want to try something new like say, a portobello mushroom doubling as a burger then let your freak flag fly! Food is really really good, presentation is excellent and everything is likely conflict free, non-GMO, vegan, soy and guilt free. read more

Best bakery/restaurant, EVER!! Worth the drive out in the country to enjoy an amazing meal in a serene setting.

Excellent fantastic. Grilled cheese sandwich three cheese hamburger and desserts awesome

My dad brought me here about a year ago and since i have Made an effort to revisit it everytime i returned to the area. Everybody i have brought there [aunt, friends, boyfriend] aren't vegetarian as i am, but they enjoyed the handcrafted organic food as much as i do. Now that i moved to the area, its one of my boyfriend and my's favorite lunch spot. Surrounded by rolling hills and green pastures--a car only every half hour or so, there is nothing nicer than to sit outside on a warm sping afternoon and enjoy a hearty burger. If you want to relax and eat actual organic food that was made by people who care about quality, taste, and atmosphere, look no further than the lighthouse. read more

I hadn't been here for several years and found it still going strong. This is operated by a religious group that does not serve meat. However, it has very good sandwiches and outstanding bread. I bought a loaf of pecan raison bread to take home. In the best French tradition it had chewy crust and a firm interior with excellent taste. The cookie I tried was chewy but otherwise an ordinary chocolate chip. (I prefer chewy to crispy cookies.) read more

Excellent food and great people! This place is always busy. Our favorite is to stop in for a fresh loaf of bread right when it can be sliced. No preservatives, 100% pure organic grains. We live within walking distance, but if you're ever this way going to the coast, be sure to save time to stop for a treat or a meal. read more

The food is fantastic, and if you are worried about the lack of meat, don't be. Your taste buds won't miss a thing! Lighthouse Bakery executes their menu with higher quality and better consistency than any restaurant in Douglas County. The Portobello pannini is highly recommended if you are making your first trip. The remodel of the facility that used to be the Umpqua Store is beautiful, and makes for a great stop if you are touring the close by Reustle or Henry's wineries. read more

Always a pleasure to stop here! Bright and airy with a super friendly staff. Food is fresh and amazing and I've never regretted what I ordered. Their breads are amazing too,, as well as their pastries. Get here a little early because it fills up fast. The only negative is traveling with my aging father- they need to offer a few chairs with arms so the elderly can get in and out of the chairs without as much help from the people around them. A spot to store a walker would be nice too. read more

top notch delicious! beautiful presentation and warm staff, love the lunch sandwiches and salads, and the cinnamon rolls are great!

Wonderful place! I LOVE bringing out of town guests here because every visit is such a treat! Its perfect for vegans and those with dietary restrictions. Lighthouse Bakery is surrounded by beautiful scenery, has plentiful outdoor seating, a great selection of delicious treats to choose from, and generous portions! This place is truly Douglas County gold!! read more
