Penny Lane Coffeehouse

This is a sanctuary. The portal to peace.You walk in and it smells like cinnamon, vinyl records, and emotional healing.The barista greets you like you’re the protagonist. The lighting? Soft. Golden. Forgiving. And then you order the iced apple chai latte. It’s not a drink. It’s a seasonal awakening. It tastes like autumn fell in love with a spice rack and wrote you a poem. It’s crisp. It’s creamy. It’s giving witchy orchard energy. But wait. You’re cold. You need comfort. You need Ziggy Stardust. That warm Ziggy Stardust drink? It’s not just a beverage. It’s a hug from the universe. It’s like David Bowie himself descended from the stars, kissed your forehead, and said, ‘You’re doing amazing, sweetie.’ It’s warm. It’s mysterious. It’s got that little shimmer of something you can’t quite name like stardust, or closure, or the feeling of finally being understood. So yeah. Penny Lane isn’t just a coffeehouse. It’s a safe space. A vibe. A cosmic reset button.

I’ve been a loyal customer at Penny Lane for over a decade now & hope it prospers forever. I can’t imagine a more cozy & welcoming environment. Reading at coffee shops is one of my favorite things to do & this one is by far my favorite one to chill at. I love seeing all the dedicated locals that visit everyday to read the paper with their coffee. So much charm in this place. I adore that they feature local artists on rotation. This place is truly a pillar of the community. My go to order is a dirty lavender chai & a veggie burger with pesto. I also just learned they now serve cold brew with cold foam! But you can’t go wrong with anything here- the ladies working are also super helpful if you need some help coming up with something that suits you!

We stumbled upon this delightful coffee shop over Thanksgiving. It serves real fresh food, excellent coffee, good service. But the vibe is just the best - exposed brick, funky tables and chairs. Nice change from the chains.

We found this cozy spot on a snowy Sunday, and it was the perfect escape from the cold. The warmth of the place was so inviting, with regulars chatting with the baristas—always a great sign! We grabbed drinks from the cooler and found a comfy seating area in the back. We sipped our drinks and read, fully content in the peaceful atmosphere. Relaxing. Enjoying life 1 sip, 1 bite and 1 small town at a time. Explore everything!

this place is just a whole total vibe. It’s so cool inside there with local artwork on the wall, items that can be purchased from local people. And then the selections for the food and drink. Man, they’ve got some great looking sandwiches I went with the smoothie today and was not disappointing at all. We tried two different kinds, and both of them were just incredible. I don’t really feel like you’re going to go wrong with anything that you get here. Staff was extremely friendly, and the restaurant itself was clean. If you’re downtown in Evansville, and you want a good place to stop by and give this one a shot.

Penny Lane Coffeehouse is a place to go when you want to wine down and relax. I’ve been supporting this local business for a while and moved away about 10 months ago and is the reason I had to move back. This beautiful establishment with its unique character that does not match any other local coffee shop in town made me even more home sick than ever! I’m so happy to be back in Evansville which is not my birth home but my chosen home that my heart chose. Penny Lane Coffeehouse is definitely a must try for any coffee lover and even non-coffee lovers because they offer way more than just coffee!! They have breakfast and lunch for foods and I’ve attached the picture of the menu in this review. They also have smoothies and Teas for the coffee lovers and non-coffee readers! This is also the place to go when you want to just escape the world and get lost in books. Check out the huge wall of books where people take a book and leave a book. Also coming here you also support the local artists here in Evansville by coming to admire the work of arts on the wall or even purchasing one but also don’t forget the handmade jewelry’s and keychains!!

We were on our way to brunch and saw this corner coffee shop and had to go! And who can ever deny coffee?! Lol.. It was busy for a Sunday afternoon visit, but we are not from that area. That might be normal. It's definitely a cute place. Cool local artwork, jewelry for sale, books to read. Very cool. We did not try any food, but the menu looked delicious. Hope to return soon! It's pet friendly too!

Feel like a local. Come enjoy a really cool neighborhood coffee house. Tell them Ron sent you and you will be treated like a Queen or King 👑 If your visiting on a Sunday take a walk across the street and check out the sweetest Church ✝️

Love Penny Lane! Voodoo Child (Hot) is delicious And my Favorite Avocado toast is also tasty!

Penny Lane is such a great cozy cafe to enjoy and beverage and a breakfast sandwich! The service is always stellar. The employees are super helpful and kind. You order food and drinks at one end of the counter, and they call out your order at the other end of the bar. Make sure to pay attention to the order of guests and the name of what you ordered since they call out the menu item, not a name. It's busy on the weekends, but I find that tables/seats turn over pretty quick! Plenty of street parking and walkable to Haynie's Corner!

This was a nice comfortable place to stop and sit and relax over a cup of coffee. Plenty of seating inside and out. Staff were helpful and friendly. Coffee was good food was ok nothing special. We had eggs, hash browns and something that resembled bacon. I think the place is fully vegan. We would go back if in the area again.

Got the Almost famous sandwhich and an iced americano, the place is so cute inside and has such a vibe to it. The sandwhich and coffee was SO good, healthy too. So good that i wanted to leave a review

This is a perfect breakfast/brunch option! I was initially blown away by the low prices but realized their portion sizes are pretty small for sandwiches. On the bright side, for a larger meal you could try two menu items as they all look delicious. I love places with fresh smoothie options and a very extensive coffee list. You can get anything from matcha to iced coffee and iced lattes. Outdoor and indoor seating is available but might be difficult to find on a weekend. I did notice that the lighting and ducts way up by the ceiling are dusty. I know they're tough to clean but not the best to see at a restaurant. The one bathroom was clean. Street parking is free and plentiful in this historic neighborhood. You'll probably want to get a coffee to-go and walk around to view the architecture! As every coffee shop with a big bookcase is, Penny Lane is trendy/hippie. Totally would recommend this place!

Stopped in from out of town to get a coffee and had great service. There was one person working and she was kind and cranking out orders. Really cute and local vibes inside.

Penny Lane Coffeehouse is a real gem! We were in Evansville at North High School for a lacrosse tournament. Penny Lane is a sponsor of the North Huskies girls's lacrosse team, so I wanted to pay them a visit. Only about 4 mins away. Busy drive through, pretty quiet inside with a bunch of tables, some with cozier seating options. Chill vibe. Staff were friendly and busy making orders for drive through. Love that they make cortados, which have been my coffee of choice the last 4 months. My drink was perfect! My wife got her usual soy latte - seemed to like it, but I didn't really ask. We both had the Kevin Bacon sandwiches, which were awesome! I don't know what a Bolillo roll is, but it was so good! Would happily eat on of those on a daily basis. My son had the Gremlins, which are mini waffle dunkers. He didn't like it that much, so I tried one and it was also super tasty. I'm sure it wasn't good for my waistline. Great concept for a local coffeeshop - now they just need to move to Zionsville

Attentive to my order. Thankful for the business. Can't be in hurry to get in and out. Customers seemed to know the level of service.

Great cappuccino & huge breakfast sandwich menu. The vibe in there is also great; vintage clothes, art, jewelry, books, etc. Really comfortable & welcoming, friendly, relaxed, delicious, fun. Can't wait to go back.

Great coffee and breakfast sandwiches! Love the downtown location near the river and historic part of town

What a gem! Great food and drinks. Coffee, sandwiches and smoothies to order. Located in a beautiful historic neighborhood.

Great vibe, inclusive, great coffee and grub at good prices. Two thumbs up; we'd come here again.

I love the location of Penny Lane Coffeehouse, as it is nestled in the historic area of Haynies corner. They have a wide range of breakfast, lunch sandwiches, smoothies and coffee. I ordered the Tiny Dancer latte, and enjoyed it. It always seems to fill up, so if you want seating, go early.

Penny Lane Coffehouse is a cute coffee shop! There are local artists works for sale throughout the shop which was nice to see! I ordered a cherry mocha with oatmilk and enjoyed the combination. My partner ordered a hot chai with oatmilk and he thought it was good! When in Evansville I will be stopping in Penny Lane!

Stopped here to pick up sandwiches on a busy day. Food was good, drinks tasty, and the price is right. Nice atmosphere but cramped so sit outside if the day is nice! I wish my sandwich had come with a side, would be willing to pay a bit more to have some chips or pasta salad.

Despite not being able to sit inside due to current pandemic restrictions the atmosphere was inviting and cozy. As we walked up to the very obviously neighborhood hang out several people greeted us even though we are newcomers. I like that! It was busy inside with two servers catering to a line of those wanting morning coffee and sammies, but the vibe continued to be relaxed and friendly. We got a chai and voodoo coffee which was delicious. It had the right amount of sweet to the rich bold coffee taste. Our sammies were build your own with mine bring an oat nut bread with hummus and veggies. I like that for a small price you could make anything with tons of bread, spread and stuffing options. As we waited we browsed the decor and it was a funky fun spot - especially if you are a music fan! We loved our first taste of Penny Lane and enjoyed the flavors on the riverfront only a few blocks away. Great way to start the day!

Great breakfast food, coffee and atmosphere in an incredible neighborhood. Highly recommended

Meh! Busy but not necessarily because they are great. They told me after I paid that they were out of sugar free hazelnut syrup. In fact, they were out of quite a lot that was on their in-store menu and the menu we saw online is also apparently not accurate. Also, employees were fairly rude when I mentioned coffee and cream were out. Food was ok - at least it's not premade frozen sandwiches. But not enough to make me come back.

I've been to Penny Lane a few times, and after this one, I wanted to leave a review. I wandered in mid-afternoon and ordered a white rabbit. The white rabbit has excellent creaminess without being overly sweet. I really enjoyed the white chocolatey flavor while sitting in the relaxed atmosphere of the coffee shop. Penny Lane is a great place to sit and slow sip a latte while burning some afternoon hours with friends.

Went here with the fam after Black Friday shopping. It was super chill and laid back, which we loved. There was one lady behind the bar and she was incredible. Making drinks, taking orders, and making our sandwiches and she just made it look EASY. Food came out quick and hot, just how I like it. I got the breakfast club sandwich with bacon, my sister and dad got it too but they got sausage. Everyone liked it. And the coffee was good. Best cafe au lait I've had outside of New Orleans.

I don't get downtown much these days but had the opportunity to stop in this morning. The place was just as I remembered it. Cozy, great atmosphere, food and coffee. I had the Caddyshack and it was amazing. The people behind the counter are polite and efficient at their jobs.

Good, basic, organic coffee. Not the most exciting menu, but well made and friendly baristas. Good place to chill and nice outdoor patio.

NOT wheelchair accessible. Half step onto a small stoup with a manual inward door. ................

I ordered avocado toast here about 6 months ago but the experience has haunted me ever since. The avocado they used was the spread/dip you can buy at Schnuck's with all kinds of other shit in it that's not avocado. The mocha was OK. I had to hoof it to the Double Tree downtown to drain myself and the staff at the hotel definitely knew I wasn't staying there. Embarrassing!

Nice people, good coffee at a fair price. Ambience is funky student-like, but welcoming. I didn't require service so no comment.

Menu on website isn't what's available at the restaurant. Coffee was weak. Staff was untrained and literally everything self serve needed to be refilled and they acted bothered to refill them.

Excellent coffee, food, service and environment! Voodoo Child and White Rabbit are two of my favorite drinks. Will be visiting again soon.

Stopped in before heading back to Indianapolis. We saw this shop was close to the brewery we were just at so we thought why not. There were people outside on their computers outside and surprisingly more people inside playing board games or just sharing a cup of coffee. I had ordered an ice latte with coconut and mocha and My fiancé ordered an ice coffee. I was just really excited to see a place carry coconut syrup! What we were most impressed with, were their straws. Unlike the new paper straw fad, these were still biodegradable but made from agave plant and were just as sturdy as a normal straw. We were shocked. Both drinks were great and helped keep us awake on our 3 hour drive back.

This coffee shop is very chill. Also, it has a hippie vibe with a lofty and artsy decor created from local artists in the tri-state area for sale. It's located on the corner of 2nd street and Mulberry street so just outside the downtown. I've been told a few celebs has stopped by in the past years since it's been open. Last but never the least, they offer hot/cold coffees, fruit smoothies and delicious breakfast and lunch to dine in or have on the go. I highly recommend this coffee shop!

Many travel blogs point to Penny Lane as a place to visit. Not quite sure why. It is a typical local coffee shop that offers food items alongside its coffee choices. My cappuccino with oat milk was good, not great. The all-fruit smoothie was refreshing because it was cold but the flavors were subtle. I wanted a baked good to go with my drink but their offerings--Costco muffins? Presently, they only offer disposable cups for their drinks. We chose to walk through the historic neighborhood as we sipped our drinks.

Loved this place! Coffee was great and so was the food. It was a perfect breakfast for my boyfriend & I while we are visiting!

Their food was good and their coffee was great. They are locally owned. A very quaint setting with free WiFi. Very nice place. I would've given it 5 stars but on my second visit the lady working was very rude.

We stopped by Penny Lane for our first "Evansville Thing" as we tried to find our new home. It was the best decision of the day (other than selecting our house of course). The staff and patrons were so friendly. The menu offered hot breakfast sandwiches, hot and cold coffees, bagels, and more... we both had iced coffee and split a bagel - opting to eat on a bench outside. We spoke with so many wonderful, friendly people and our "breakfast" was delicious. We'll be back, more frequently, when we move for sure :)

Love the decor and vibe of this cute coffee shop. Free wi-fi and comfy seating to come and study or relax. Local artist jewelry is sold here too.

Always on the search for a locally owned coffee shop. Love this spot! Popular drink is the Voodoo Child latte of which I treated myself to a large iced. :) Have shelves of books and magazines. Would recommend!

Cute local coffee shop that's been a staple of the area for almost 20 years. The staff are all friendly and know what they're talking about. The decor is eclectic and vintage, mismatched and worn but sweet. They have an extensive drink list, a great list of teas, and even some more unusual flavors - lavender latte, anyone? It's hard to do a London Fog right; while this was a little sweeter than I prefer, it was still well balance and much better than most. I also did a build-your-own breakfast sandwich. The croissants were on the bready side, so they didn't get messy and flake! Great little shop and I'll definitely be back. It's great to sit on the couches by the window to get some work done.

My favorite coffee place in Evansville. Great location, parking. Service is top notch! Keeping my eye out for some new art for sale. Highly recommend

I've only ever had a raspberry beret latte here, and it was quite good. I would say their coffee is similar to most independent coffeehouses. As you might guess from the name of the place, a lot of the menu items have a Beatles theme to them, and you'll see a nod to the band here and there. However, I think that the artwork on the wall, created by local artists, is much more noticeable. The place is very welcoming. It's like your best borderline hoarder friend invited you over for coffee.

This place was fantastic! We were driving though and stopped at this little gem. The coffee and chai tea were out of this world. Yum! The sandwiches were very good. The staff were friendly. It's definitely a hippy type joint, but I love that. We got there just in time to beat a long line and sat outside. It was pretty packed. This place is clearly the neighborhood favorite. Would highly recommend checking this place out.

Cute coffee shop to stop by and visit. We ordered the iced White Wedding and the Raspberry Beret and they were really good. The inside was really cool as well.

Stopped in to grab a Sunday coffee, and I was pleasantly surprised by Penny Lane. Outside they had an advertisement for a special: Blackberry White Mocha Latte. I ended up getting it, and I feel like I have been missing out on something my whole life. They had a great amount of foam. Not too sweet. It was just right. There were people hanging out here, so it is a great place to meet friends and chat. That staff was very helpful and service was quick. It isn't too far from Haynie's Corner and the river. Grab a coffee and go for a little walk when the weather is nice. I would come back for a drink and if I need to get out and do some work, Penny Lane is my new number one choice (especially since they have free wifi and upgrade your drink if you check in).

The owner is awesome, and the food is delicious. The inside of the place is super cool. I'm grumpy in the mornings, and there's not a whole lot that makes me happy, but this place sure did. :-)

This was the first and only real coffee shop in Evansville. For years it was only Donut Bank, which,,, is DONUT Bank, not COFFEE Bank, for a reason. My friends and I went the first time in 2002 when it was bare bones and Sk8er Boi was blasting in our car,,, Though it has come SUCH a long way since then (added some books and pillows and comfort and sunshine),,, the constant remains: the coffee is still amazing! Not just the special stuff either, the regular coffee that you serve yourself is amazing. Do yourself a favor and visit one of the best coffee shops in the US.

This is such a great addition to the downtown Evansville area. This is the type of cornerside coffee shop that has a distinct personality. I love the emphasis on classic rock music and the interior is so quaint and cozy. Parking is great here as well!! They also have the best chamomile tea I've ever had in my life! Just putting that out there. 10/10!

Our new favorite go to coffee shop in this beautiful neighborhood! New to Evansville, it's lovely to discover this friendly spot with delicious food as well.

Cozy, artsy coffeeshop in downtown Evansville. Have a selection of food (bagels, sandwiches) and coffee. Great service and great atmosphere. Fell in love with a build-your-own croissant and including egg, turkey, cucumber, tomato, and spicy mayo. The toasting of the croissant was a nice touch.

Yum, yumm, yummmmm! Good food, fun atmosphere- - - We tried a variety of items including iced coffee, iced mocha, a protein smoothie, and some breakfast sandwiches. The barista was great. We waited a little bit for our food which let us enjoy the fun factor of the restaurant.

This place is incredible, the vibe walking in immediately feels welcoming and homey. I cannot explain how peaceful Penny Lane Coffeehouse is enough, please come by and check this place out, you won't regret it!

Stopped in yesterday thinking I was going to have a vanilla latte. However, I saw they offered amaretto coffee, so I asked if they would make an iced amaretto latte. They did. It was great! And I only had to wait 1-2 minutes on a busy Saturday morning.
