As
I'm
preparing
to
leave
Chicago
in
a
couple
of
hours,
I
had
to
get
packed
and
ready
to
check
out
of
the
Ida
B.
Wells
Hostel
(I
highly
recommend)
and
found
myself
with
no
time
to
venture
out
on
a
specifically
"Vegan"
quest
for
breakfast.
As
is
the
case
with
most
hostels
I've
stayed
at,
they
do
offer
free
breakfast,
but
the
Vegan
offerings
are
practically
nonexistent,
with
only
doughy
bagels
and
jelly,
or
granola/cereal
with
no
plant-based
milk
offered.
I
prefer
to
eat
nothing.
Nevertheless,
there
happens
to
be
a
wonderful
café
immediately
adjacent
to
the
hostel
-
Cafecito!
And
they
have
"Vegan
Specialties"
and
I've
made
a
point
of
uploading
a
photo
of
that
portion
of
the
menu
here,
as
I
literally
wolfed
down
the
Vegan
Pan
con
Bistec
I
ordered,
along
with
a
large
coffee
(their
coffee
is
da'
bomb!)
And
the
woman
who
took
my
order
made
me
my
coffee
fresh
and
graciously
added
the
two
packets
of
organic
stevia,
that
I
always
carry
with
me
on
trips,
along
with
the
soy
milk
that
offer
as
well.
They
have
a
total
of
nine
(9)
items
on
their
Vegan
menu,
a
warm
and
welcoming
atmosphere,
including
background
music
playing
at
just
the
right
level,
plenty
of
tables
and
chairs
for
solo
diners,
couples
and
groups,
where
you
can
sit
and
work,
socialize
or
map
out
your
tour
of
Chicago.
I
definitely
recommend
them
if
you
happen
to
be
in
the
area.
Pros:
Nine
Vegan
options
on
the
menu,
Great
service!,
Very
comfortable
