About this spot
In Logan Square, Lula Cafe delivers a comforting yet elevated breakfast and lunch experience centered on housemade items like the Classic Lula Breakfast Burrito with its green chile soffritto and the Farro and Quinoa Bowl featuring pecan pesto. Their afternoon menu shines with creative sweets such as the Litchi Noir Kouign Amann with pecorino ganache and the Fernet and Banana Bavarois topped with passion fruit sorbet. This is the place to grab a Smoked Trout Scramble or a slice of Pecorino Cake before exploring North Kedzie Boulevard.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the Buttermilk Pancakes early in the day, as they are frequently sold out by mid-morning.
- Ask for extra housemade yogurt to accompany the Nut and Date Granola if you want a substantial snack.
- Save room for dessert because the Chocolate and Benne Seed Tart with coconut sorbet is surprisingly rich.
