Lighthouse Coffee
600 Center St, Blacksburg, VA
Crema's Take
“Lighthouse Coffee is a boho-spirited café where quality truly matters—they craft syrups in-house and source high-quality ingredients while operating on a pay-what-you-can model that reflects their values. The two passionate baristas create exceptionally smooth espresso drinks and specialty matcha teas in a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that buzzes with the campus community, making it the kind of place where you feel like a regular immediately. It's the rare coffee shop where excellent craft, genuine kindness, and affordability actually come together.”

Out of all cafes in Blacksburg, this is the one I trust the most. The ingredients they use are high quality, while a lot of coffee shops mainly use the cheapest and most efficient ingredients to make their coffees. I love getting my matcha there, for which they use high quality, pure matcha powder and carefully blend it by hand into the milk of choice (my favorite is with oatmilk). I even got my order without sweetener and it tasted AMAZING. 10/10
What a special little coffee house! You pay whatever you can afford for your order and it’s a lovely, boho-feel, hangout. The place is buzzing with people! The coffee was excellent. The people were very kind.
I come to Lighthouse quite frequently during the semester but this morning I had the pleasure of meeting the Notre Dame Women’s Soccer team while picking up my morning matcha. Since it was a little crowded with all the players, the coach offered to cover my drink— and the staff also offered to put it on the house. This coffee shop exudes kindness, it’s always a loving atmosphere.
Coffee was incredibly smooth with no harsh aftertaste, the staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is so welcoming- I’ve fallen in love with a location so quick. Parking can be awkward to pull into, but that’s hardly a gripe. Live Laugh Love Lighthouse Coffee
Great new coffee shop! The two ladies who work here are so kind! They make their syrups in house and they are so delicious! You will definitely have a personable experience here that is hard to find at big brand chain stores. There is plenty of seating, and the vibe is so cozy! Me and friends did a Bible study here and it was such a great place! We also saw a bunch of people doing homework or other work, and it is a very serene environment. Pay what you can but they have suggestions
