Reviews for Lucy’s Cafe in Chicago, IL
I love love love this place! I got the French Toast Flight (vegan) and it was mouthwatering good, not to mention a great way to... try all the available french toast flavours (my fav was the raspberry)! My boyfriend got Combo 2 with the eggs fried over mediumand soy sausage, I didn't eat any, but he said he enjoyed it. We sat outside which was really nice, our waiter was awesome, andI love that the water had a lemon slice in it. Definitely going to be coming here again whenever I'm in Chicago. My singlecomplaint is the menu lol, it has a couple mistakes in it. Read more
First time here it was late afternoon on a Sunday. Waited 25 minutes to be seated. But once I ate my food I understood why. I... ordered the Vegan Blackened Chicken Wrap and when I tell you I savored every bite. I also tried their Chai. Delicious food andattentive staff. Small space but airy. I will be coming back for sure. Read more
Lovely Lucy?s cafe is cute and adorable. Pop along for breakfast, brunch or lunch. We absolutely loved the pancakes with... raspberries and avocado with sweetcorn on toast. Everything was tasty. Ace presentation. We wanted to sit outside but it was toohot do we relocated inside which was cool. We are in Chi visiting family. I would definitely go back to Lucy?s on my next visit.Enjoy!!

This place had a very comfortable, peaceful, homey feel. There was a bit of a wait when we first got there but once we were... seated the service was quick and friendly. First I got the raspberry cooler, which is lemonade and raspberry tea. I finishedthat before my food came.. I am vegan, I ordered the vegan flight of French toast and the side of breakfast potatoes.Delicious!!! Loved it. (Good) Vegan French toast is rare. I also took the vegan Mexican quesadilla to go. Ate that later on inthe day and also loved that. Served w a nice rice and salsa for dipping. Cannot wait to go back. Read more
This place is dynamite! It's hard to find a good vegan/vegetarian breakfast place but this place delivers on all levels. Not... only was the food delicious but the service was awesome! Can't wait to go back again! Read more
ALWAYS a surprisingly delicious meal!! Though considering how many times we?ve been here and loved everything we?ve gotten it... shouldn?t be a surprise. As a meat eater (insert shame here) I love the egg and cheese options that are easily removed andsubstituted for vegan options. The restaurant is so bright and fresh but also warm and cozy, and ALL of the staff are friendlyand kind with great energy. Do yourself a favor and just go eat there. (In the picture is the street corn avocado toast andvegan chocolate chip pancakes). Read more
While the ambiance was very nice the food was subpar for the wait. The hostess gave us a wait time of "at least 20 mins" that... turned into about an hour. So I was surprised when I ordered the combo that included hashbrowns and was given regular frieddiced potatoes, no onions or anything. The gf, vegan pancakes looked great but taste overwhelming of vanilla extract. Theservice could've been better but we weren't sure how many servers were available between the patio and inside considering thehost and kitchen staff came to our table several times.. Overall, the pricing was reasonable and off peak hours for a quick biteit might be a better option than Sunday breakfast with the girls. Read more
We were in town for an event and leaving back home when we stopped here for brunch. The wait time was a bit long since we had a... big group. Martin (the chef and the person taking orders) was very nice and made sure we were taking care of since we had tocatch a flight. They are short staff so they service will be slow. The food is good! We had the Veggie tofu scramble w. BananaWalnuts Pancakes, fresh Oj and some other stuff (can't remember what all we had) but everything was seasoned very well. Ourkiddos loved the potatoes. We enjoyed our brunch and we'll definitely return when we come back to Chicago! Updated: Returned toLucy's Cafe today, good is still delicious. Food came out quick and fresh! Service was better than our last visit. Hopefully,the service and the food remains the same. Will definitely be back to eat!! ???????? Read more
