The Lowry Cafe

I've probably been to the Lowry a hundred times and I love it more each time I go. The food and coffee are delicious, although I admit there aren't many choices for vegans which is the only bummer for me, but the fact that I still love eating there may be all the proof needed that it's a truly wonderful place to go! On top of all that, they even have parking! Highly HIGHLY recommend - if you're looking for a great place for breakfast then DEFINITELY try the Lowry!

Nice little cafe in North Minneapolis. I had the French toast and bacon, my wife had the Ranchero skillet, and we both had coffee. Both of us were extremely happy with our meals. The cinnamon French toast (no raisins) was the perfect balance of sweet and savory, and the bacon had a delicious flavor. I think some people would prefer the bacon more crispy, but I loved it as is. The Ranchero skillet comes with salsa and this is not white people Minnesota salsa, this is real salsa with a kick (in a great way). Wife had sourdough toast and said it was surprisingly good as well. We were pleasantly surprised that they had decaf coffee brewed already and so there was no delay. Coffee has a robust flavor, so I personally needed a little extra milk/sugar, but it's tasty and their mugs are a lovely shape. A little chilly and drafty in a window booth, but nice reggae music playing, cool art on the walls, and solid service. All in all, highly recommend!

The atmosphere is great, super clean, open, and decorated very nicely! The food was so good!! My husband had the Jordan...the pancake was huuuge...and I got the Corned Beef Hash Super Food Skillet (with shaved Brussel sprouts, kale, cabbage, and other veggies)...it was amazing! And the prices are fair!

Service was terrible, but don't let that stop you! The waffle burger was amazing! Fresh fruit was perfect and crisp. Delicious coffee at half the cost of Starbucks. Atmosphere is a 90's coffee shop vibe. Wait staff was confused and not very attentive, but the manager (owner maybe?) was on top of everything.
