I cannot even begin to say enough good things about Salt & Light. When I was a local, I visited the cafe every weekend for the cold brew cinnamon buns and a matcha latte. Now, I live an hour away... and still drive there some weekends to get brunch. THAT'S how good it is. The owners are both amazing people and the staff there is always so, so kind. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the owners implemented delivery and curbside pickup as well as the option to purchase meals for local frontline workers. They really stepped up during a time of need and have solidified that I will be a lifelong customer. This place is a must-have.

I'm sure to go back to Salt & Light. It's clean, bright, and well-decorated. I had a scone and a drink, but I feel like I've found a gem of a place to visit frequently.

Fantastic food and beverages. I was sad that the Matcha and Peaflower latte I got did not come looking like the beautiful blue with green around it that others had (they said they mixed the two in. I recommend they don’t, as my main reason to buy this latte was the pretty appearance). It was okay taste-wise, not great. I would have gotten plain matcha if I had known it would look like plain matcha as that would have tasted better. The Bundt cake was fabulous! Perfect texture, and even had a cream cheese filling too! They have some gluten free options, and I love the mission and atmosphere! They even have a kid-sized rocking chair!!! So cute. And, for those who need, it is fully nut free!

Great place. Excellent baked goods. Nice lunch options. Friendly staff. They have good seating and a laid back vibe. Google says they are closed on Monday but that’s incorrect. I went there today for breakfast. They are open Monday-Saturday. Closed Sunday

What a cute little gem! We were driving back from a hike when we decided to check out this cafe. We were impressed by the food menu and the vibe. There was a line of people ahead of us but it didn't take too long to move. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. We had the Vegetable and Avacado wrap, coffee and BBQ beef brisket. Everything was delicious. I even bought a bag of coffee beans!

I’ve lived in the area for 3 years and this is *by far* the best coffee shop around. The baked goods are always perfect, the coffee is excellent, and the hot food is always beyond my expectations. The lemonade is also great! The staff does a great job of handling the busyness with efficiency. It’s a must try for the area.

This place is a gem! I’ve been all over New England and have tried many coffee shops. I thought this was by far one of the best I’ve had for true specialty coffee. I had the espresso and it had an amazing crema and great flavor. We also tried the pastries. My favorite was the strawberry pop tart. The pastry was made perfectly and had a wonderful tart and sweet flavor. We also tried the tea and I got another coffee as well it was so good. One nice thing is after we accidentally spilt my coffee they helped clean up and even offered to make me another coffee! This is a great spot for pastries, coffee, espresso and a meeting.

This place was rockin when we came in. There were few people ahead of us and more piled in as we were standing in line. You'd think with the amount of busy this place was, the ordering process would be more transactional, but it was patient and friendly. I don't want to say the drinks were fancy, but it was an upscale coffee experience. The sandwiches were packed with flavor and just the right portion. The scone wasn't sweet at all. If I had it again, I might have had it with a slightly sweeter drink. The pop tart was perfect with a hot cup of black coffee. Our seat against the wall was weirdly drafty and there was a point where so many people were waiting for to-go orders that they were towering over where we were sitting. Neither thing would stop us from coming back. As a matter of fact, we will be back. The food was too good and the menu is long not to have something else. Street parking was free and easy. Spacious bathroom on site.

The food here was delicious! We had the pork hash (amazing) and the goat cheese/avocado/egg sandwich. I’ve already told three friends to eat here if they’re in Groton. I didn’t see a choice whole grain bread choice for the sandwich. That would’ve been nice. The interior is comfortable with some seating on cozy couches. Looking forward to eating here again.

Really charming little spot with fresh, hearty breakfast options and one of the best iced lattes that I’ve had in a long time. The big, savory bagels were delicious and the thick-cut bacon was perfectly smoky! Surprisingly roomy inside, too, with bigger tables for groups, smaller tables for doing work, couches for casual meetups, and plenty of light and space. Plus, the staff could not have been kinder or more attentive, clearing plates, checking in, and chatting with regulars. Definitely will be back!
