Dairy Lane Cafe

1
319 19 St NW, Calgary AB T2N 2J2

A fixture in the West Hillhurst neighbourhood since the 1950s, Dairy Lane Café serves a diner-style menu that’s heavy on local and sustainable fixings and incorporates Latin leanings. For breakfast, it’s omelettes and tostadas, for lunch, burgers and sandwiches. Carnitas tacos are served all day, but you’ll have to wait until 5 pm to sample the jalapeño mac ‘n’ cheese.
