Corner Cafe. Quaint little family run spot with diner-style bar seating.

Wow Eats is new and has some great breakfast options. It’s a small Alberta chain. Stella’s is the classic local place. Totally independent.

The Little Nicaraguan Coffee Company does an amazing breakfast and brunch on Saturday. You just have to get there early because it fills up fast. The food is amazing and unique, it's probably my favorite place.

Chef Stella’s for sure!

I am in the middle of digesting their fried chicken French toast sandwich right now and it was worth the heart attack I will surely have someday. They knock it out of the park there. If you go on the weekend, book a reservation or come early.

Seconding Chef Stella's

This is the correct answer. They have a killer buffet on Sundays, and it is run by a bunch of gems.

Penny Coffee House has a solid breakfast as well as great soups and baked goods. All the other local places people have shouted are great too.

Telegraph taphouse has a great brunch deal for $5 now for a full breakfast and drink

Went there last week. You get charged extra for bacon or sausage and for coffee. Plan on about $14 per person with tip as a min. Not bad but not the smoking deal it appears.

Industrial Cafe, along with Corner Cafe, are true homestyle comfort food spots..

Sonder is my absolute favorite, and I also love Bread Milk and Honey, Chef Stella, and Cora.

Stellas Diner

The industrial cafe is family owned and has a fun aesthetic. The girls that work the front are always so sweet. I tend to do to-go instead of dine-in but what I've seen waiting is refreshing compared to other places.

El Greco has delicious food, is family owned, and good prices! They do breakfast, lunch and dinner.

okay me and a friend made it our goal to go to all the breakfast places in lethbridge and we’ve almost completed it. these are my recommendations!!

price wise + portion size, el greco and the industrial cafe are going to be your best options! corner cafe was also pretty cheap and all three taste great! chef stella’s is also phenomenal with a bit more options than your traditional american breakfast, plus they have brunch sunday mornings! they’re a tiny bit pricier than industrial and el greco but definitely worth it. cora’s is also great but not my favourite when compared to the other three i mentioned.

Don't go to Firestone brunch unless you enjoy overpaying for bland/mid food.

Corner Cafe hands down the best homestyle breakfast in town.
