The original Lamplighter has rightfully earned a place in the hearts of many Fan dwellers. It should be praised simply for the fact it brought Country Style Donuts into the city borders but that is my own bias shining through. The new VCU Lamplighter (26 N. Morris St.) replaced well known and loved Crossroads and hasn’t quite found it’s groove yet as evidenced by my own experience that is strikingly similar to the review on Style Weekly and the comments that follow said review.
Call ahead for pickup, and your sandwich is liable to be on a different bread, or your vegan choice will have unadvertised mayonnaise (most likely vegan, yet still a surprise). Eat in and you’ll receive chips and a pickle and very little else.
It’s too bad, because the sandwiches are incredibly well thought out with some dead-on repeats from Lamplighter’s first location on Addison.
It should be noted that their coffee and espresso drinks are always some of the best in town no matter which location you visit.
