Lucky Penny Cafe is a beloved, locally owned eatery located in downtown Tacoma. This historic cafe offers breakfast and lunch, featuring a menu that includes traditional Korean dishes like bibimbap, as well as sandwiches, smoothies, and coffee. The fried rice, made fresh on the black top grill with an egg on top, is highly praised for being delicious and generous in portion. Customers often mention the friendly and quick service provided by Penny, who is known for her kindness and efficiency. This little shop is considered a hidden gem, with all the food being awesome, especially the fried rice, which many believe makes Penny a queen of her craft. The cafe has a cozy, small corner location that shows love and care in its creation.
It is a great spot to dine in or grab food to-go, perfect for those walking around downtown Tacoma or needing to bring food back to the office. Reviews also highlight the reasonable prices and Penny's friendly service, making it a favorite among locals and visitors alike. The cafe offers vegetarian options and is accessible for wheelchair users. Customers note that there is not a lot of seating, so it is suggested to arrive early, especially if hoping to enjoy the bibimbap, which can run out before noon. Many find their visit rewarding, particularly for simple, tasty breakfast and lunch items, including the best breakfast burrito some have ever tasted.
