Lamplighter Coffee Roasters - Addison St

Great little coffee shop near VCU.

Juniper latte was delish and the vegan burrito , flavourful.

Would give them another try, hands-down.

Excellent coffee, cosy atmophere, cool people, delicious food - off the beaten track. As a bonus, just across the street there's s a lovely local design store & perfumery.

Very good coffee from a very cute shop! The mocha had a pleasant taste as if it was roasted to perfection, not burnt or bitter whatsoever. It was subtly sweet with no extra sweetener added by me. High quality stuff for sure. I'm definitely going to be trying the iced lavender latte the next time I come!

The shop is very cozy and has intimate indoor and outdoor seating arrangements, making it a great place to get coffee with a friend. They also have their own little parking lot in the front which I really appreciated.

We visited Richmond, and decided to have a coffee/lunch at this location. We were greeted by a nice host and atmosphere.

Coffee was great and we had the TLT and the "17 1/2" specials and they were really good, been to a few coffee places and food isnt always the highlight but here it was definitely the case.

Would definitely look for this place next time we stop by Richmond.

My favorite place to hang out, read, write, have a meeting, eat, drink tea, and pet a random dog in the city. Great mix of people! Delicious vegan, vegetarian, and meat options! Fresh pastries in the morning (they go quick!).

The vegan orange cranberry scone is so friggin’ good. Must try!

Delicious mocha latte, so rich and flavorful! And my partner loves the flash brew!! New favorite spot in town!

“I love Lamp”

Yummy burrito. Espresso soda is well balanced. Shop has good vibes! Popular on a Sunday. There’s a board inside with coupons for free burritos or pastries - u can choose to pre-purchase for someone at the register. That’s very nice for those in need.

A good variety of seating options, including a nice glass lot across the street. Cozy! In the morning, it has shade 🥴

Cool atmosphere to grab a coffee and get some work done at. Staff is super friendly and welcoming. Place has a great Richmond art scene vibe to it.

Not that much seating inside but a good amount outside so it’s perfect if the weather is good enough for it. One of my go-to meet up spots

Best customer service ever. Massive portions and the best coffee in town!

Hidden gem in Richmond tucked into an eclectic neighborhood.

Enjoy great coffee and breakfast burritos with the crust punks of Richmond milling about the patio area. This place does swift business.

Absolutely love this place. The coffee is delicious and the breakfast food is good. Plus they have good seating and a cozy atmosphere.

I think this is the best coffee in the city. Food is fine but nothing special. The coffee is really what shines

Though I was only in to grab breakfast before work today, this is a great spot to meet up with people to talk. Chill atmosphere and great food.
This place has my favorite breakfast, an everything bagel with the works. Their service was prompt with a flood of people coming in from the snow, there was a heater in the seating area to keep the chill off, and the food was fantastic.

As we were walking around trying to find a coffee, a friend suggested Lamplighter. First time visitors but, we will definitely come back next time we are in town. They have the most friendly staff, vegetarian/vegan options and fantastic coffee! You can eat inside or enjoy the sunshine and breeze outside on the patio. Thanks for a wonderful Sunday brunch!!

One of the best coffee shops I’ve ever been to.. and I’ve been to a lot. There can be a wait when it’s busy on Sun but it’s worth it and they are crazy nice :):). This latte is a coffee/microfoam connoisseur’s dream. Turned my whole day around ❤

I absolutely love Lamplighter! Every time I’m in RVA I walk over for some yum food (don’t sleep on those chocolate matcha cups) & drinks (lavender latte is 10/10, but just found out today it’s seasonal). Today though, I decided to write a review because of their extreme thoughtfulness towards the RVA community. As seen in the picture I’ve shared, anyone who isn’t able to afford their next meal can go in and grab a sandwich or a drink free of charge. The world needs more of this kindness. Thank you Lamplighter for leading the change! :)

Really incredible espresso beverages as well as other non-coffee options. We didn’t try any of the food, but the variety offered was impressive and it looked delicious. There was a slight line when we arrived so we ended up waiting outside to order for a few minutes. However, the staff made sure to keep the line moving and we got our drinks quickly after placing our orders. We will definitely be back!

The woman at the front with all the nice tattoos was very nice and accomadating. The menu is diverse as opposed to your regular coffee shop; and inclusive to accommodate those with particular eating needs. So if you are vegetarian and vegan, there is something there for you!

Great food and coffee. A little overpriced, but you’re paying to infiltrate the command center of the RVa noise music alt kids. So, worth it if you’re into that
