Blue Sky Cafe

Blue Sky Cafe, located on 4th Street in South Bethlehem, has a reputation for being a great place to go for breakfast. I'm happy to say that they also serve a delicious lunch.

The restaurant isn't very big, but we didn't have any problem getting a table on a weekday, just before noon. I had been expecting to see the place filled with Lehigh University students, but there was a nice mix of patrons in the Blue Sky Cafe. I enjoyed the open kitchen, where it's possible to watch while the chef cooks the food. Next time I might even ask to sit at the bar.

Because breakfast is served all day, I was able to order a panini sandwich and chips for lunch, while my best friend had the plate of pancakes she really wanted.

I've recently switched to a vegetarian diet. I was happy that the menu had a few meatless meals from which to choose. My sandwich was so delicious, I didn't even miss the meat. I'm glad I didn't ask if they still had sweet potato fries. It would have been way more than I could have eaten.

The restaurant's website isn't completely up to date, but the menu is close to what we were given by our waitress. Next time, I'm trying the pancakes!
