Was Anonym at Lion & Bright a mag?
We ate here on a Tuesday evening (note, they are closed Monday evenings) and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Lion & Bright is a bright, fun, open atmosphere restaurant with a coffee shop/cafe vibe throughout the day, and more of a wine & tapas bar in the evenings. There are tall family style tables for large groups, flanked by smaller booths and tables around the outside of Lion & Bright. They have fresh, interesting, and affordable food options, plenty of local beers on tap, and a modest wine and cocktail list. Be sure to stop in at the Local Source Market next door to grab some groceries on your way home.

LOVE this place. Only been there once and it is now my new favorite! The interior design is the best. So open and spacious. And the hardwood counter-tops are stunning! Add all that to the great staff, yummy food and local beers on tap. Perfect! Also LOVED that there was a table reserved just for laptop people. Simple way to separate those who want to socialize from those who want to concentrate on their screens. Genius.

Lion and Bright is quirky and has a really good buzz as soon as you walk in. Service is pleasant and food is delicious with a number of sharing plates which is very handy with a crowd. Unfortunately we didn't have time for a return visit.

I recently had my first experience at Lion and Bright last weekend and was very impressed. The restaurant has a large and spacious interior with high ceilings.

This café is not conducive to working on a computer.
