Caffe Lilla

I was so sad when they first closed and was THRILLED they reopened under new ownership. Same great menu! Lots of great vegetarian options with wonderful paninis, soups and salads. Prices are totally in line with the quality of the food. Looking for a dollar menu? Not the place... Looking for a lunch spot that has upscale and interesting food in a quaint environment? Caffe Lilla is the place!

I went in and asked what the could make decaf, because many coffeeshops won't make much more decaf than drip. They happily made me a delicious decaf caramel latte with almond milk. I paired it with a chewy, not too overwhelmingly sweet peanut butter cookie, and happily sat in a peaceful environment with calming music playing in the background. Very pleased with my experience!

Delicious sandwiches and homemade soups. Many gluten free options if that's something you or your friend may need. Often overlooked is the delicious coffee, usually an interesting assortment of flavor options along with the traditional favorites. They also have a drive up window if you're feeling antisocial.

It's been a while since I've popped into Caffè Lilla. It's never a disappointing stop. They offer coffee drinks and Tazo teas as well as various sandwiches, soups, salads and an impressive cooking and muffin case. The parking lot was busy with patrons of both the cafe and the salon, so don't ever let that sway you from stopping. The sun was beating on the patio and only one table was shady so we opted for indoor seats. My coworker had never been and I forgot what was on most sandwiches. It would have been nice to have the smaller menu floating somewhere so we didn't hold up anyone but there is usually one at the register. I ordered the lobster salad sandwich, it's loaded with lobster salad and relatively little spinach per salad, it was good I just personally prefer a bit more spinach. My coworker got the Wisner, she was very happy with the sweet savory combination panini. Only one real negative... The ice tea tasted off.
