This weekend, my mother, brother and I went to The Lowry Cafe on Lowry Avenue in North Minneapolis. We all ordered breakfast, although we were there late enough to enjoy the lunch menu as well. The place is wonderful. The staff have always been very friendly, calling everyone Dear, or Honey...you get the idea...
The walls are adorned by art from local artists. The Goddess of Glass is just next door and from what I gathered, the pieces decorating the walls came from her. I regularly go out for breakfast once per weekend. My Hun Bunny and I have made it somewhat of a routine to find a different location every Saturday morning. He, however, went to Milwaukee this weekend to celebrate his mother's birthday...sad I couldn't go to celebrate along with them, but I had my own celebration to attend.
I ordered French Toast and my token Chocolate Milk (which was mixed right in front of me...just the way I like it! They even asked my preference of chocolatiness...very thoughtful). My brother ordered the special, Corned Beef Hash. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, but I only took a photo of the omelet. While delicious, the french toast and hash's presentation left something to be desired. This is a photo of the hearty and HUGE veggie omelet my mother ordered.
The prices are very fair and the location is prime for me...being just blocks from my home in North Minneapolis, and perfect for a Saturday morning jaunt. Head to the post office to take care of business, purchase a sweet token of affection for a loved one from the Goddess of Glass and get the tools and supplies you need for your next inevitable home improvement project at North End Hardware.
More on all these fab N. Minneapolis businesses at a later date.
