What Gene B doesn't like about Cafe Lumiere:
I was surprised to discover that this restaurant shares a space with a movie theater, which is convenient for those going to see a film. They offer more than just typical snack bar items, with a selection of delicious lattes and mimosas. However, the service is quite slow. On the bright side, the tiramisu served in a cup was surprisingly tasty. I particularly enjoyed the outdoor seating area, which, although small, i... View all feedback. What Wanda Glover likes about Cafe Lumiere:
This place had a 4.5 star in Yelp and I wanted to try their coffee before I left home. This place is located in a cinema. I ordered Mocha and Latte. Both coffees tasted great. The service was a little slow. Your menu is very simple and they use local beans. We support local breeders. A great experience. View all feedback.

Cafe Lumiere, located within a movie theater, offers more than just conventional movie snacks. The ambiance is cozy, with indoor and outdoor seating. The menu may be small, but the grapefruit champagne is decent, and the orange and cranberry scone is a delicious morning treat. While some reviewers found the coffee offerings to be underwhelming, others appreciated the delicious lattes and cakes. Despite some service issues, the spot is great for hanging out, catching up on work with WiFi, and enjoying a simple, local brew. With a mixed bag of reviews, Cafe Lumiere emerges as a solid choice for a casual coffee break.

A bit whimpy on the lox but overall delicious. Coffee was solid. Pastry selection was also strong.

Thank you so much for carrying decent yummy tea!!! I really enjoyed their loose leaf EarlGrey and the generous price at $2.5 for a large cup. Top notch.
