Vegetarian & vegan fare in a bright, casual space where the staff follow the late Guru Sri Chinmoy.
"Between the relaxed atmosphere, friendly banter with neighborhood regulars, and cheesy-yet-charming Home Goods-esque signs on the walls, Lucy’s feels like a small town cafe teleported to Roscoe Village. And it’s easy to see why this 100% vegetarian and vegan breakfast and lunch spot has many returning customers. There are plenty of tasty dishes like pillowy French toast flights, cheesy Spanish tortillas with fluffy potato layers, and vegetable eggs benedicts. When it’s reasonable to wear shorts outside (no, 40 degrees is not shorts weather) you can enjoy their egg-centric dishes and lunchier wraps and burgers on their sidewalk patio." - john ringor
"Lucy’s feels like a small-town cafe that was teleported to Roscoe Village. It’s the type of place where decorative punny signs make you wonder if it’s a Home Goods-sponsored restaurant while you sit in a comfy booth and the staff has a quick stop-and-chat with regulars. And not only is the vegetarian food here good—most of it can also be made vegan. The menu has plenty of tasty breakfast dishes like fluffy french toast flights or soy sausage breakfast burritos, plus lunchier options like “chicken” wraps and Impossible burgers." - adrian kane, john ringor
