The Penny - Lethbridge

I like this cafe very much. It was full of people, and had a great ambiance. Friendly staff too. But it's not a great place for vegans, or strict vegetarians. First of all, none of the menu items are clearly marked, and it wasn't easy to figure out what I could eat. It was sort of dependent on which staff member you asked. None of the baked goods were marked vegan. I had a good falafel and soup. Nothing to get too excited about, but capable.

The Penny is an unexpected treasure in downtown Lethbridge. I was delighted to discover that many of the dishes on their menu were vegetarian with lots of options to make things vegan. Because the food is made from scratch- the ingredients are simple and the staff are able to tell you what is veggie friendly. Lovely people, great ambiance.

Although the vegan options are only few, the staff is very friendly and ready to change non-vegan menu items. eating is good, not excellent, but reasonably expensive. the room is covered, it is nice to sit there and have a coffee, no hurry or pressure.

Some of the best vegan pastries I've ever had! amazing vegan lunch options! they also offer many non-dairy milk and they always have vegan baking.

Enjoyed a vegan chai-spiced cupcake which was very tasty. They also offered a range of other vegan friendly baked goods such as pretzels, a chocolate cupcake, cinnamon twist, et.al. I'll have to come back and check for some nice vegan lunch options.
