Breakfast Bar None

 All you can eat breakfast bar at Yorks Bakery Cafe, Birmingham - another reason they get our Cafe of the Year accolade.

 £5 per person for unlimited porridge, cereal, fruit, toast and bagels available until midday (2pm at weekends).

Pork Pie Brekkie

Guest Spot

Holkham try out a new local speciality from Bray's Cottage Pork Pies http://www.perfectpie.co.uk/- a posh breakfast pork pie with quails eggs, bacon and baked beans.

Free Toast

The morning coffee promotions vary from price to free (low cost) items such as toast.

Ode to Joy

Ode is one hell of an impressive cafe - check out their menu(s)

Breakfast, Weekend brunch, Today's Special, Spring and their Sunday 19th May Birthday

Paw Paw Passion

Mango Paw Paw Passion Breakfast Bowl at Crussh

House of Cake and Breakfast

Massive meringues and slabs of nougat cake at Costley & Costley's House of Burns in Kirkoswald, Scotland.  They do an excellent breakfast - latte, wi-fi plus a full cooked plateful - for £6.95: highly recommended.

Olympic Record

Little Chef (like G4S) should be ashamed at any Olympic connection.  The Popham site (famous for a great reincarnation by Heston Blumenthal) managed to take 42 minutes to produce the above with two items missing and only four other tables of two in the place.
The talented restaurant critic, Giles Coren, in last Saturday's Times Magazine reports on his visit to Little Chef: "The Olympic Breakfast is completely s****.....if you happen to catch sight of the Little Chef in this, our historic Olympic year, my advice is to take him away and hold him till he pees in a test tube.  Then ban him for life".

Sex, Drugs & Bacon Rolls

Sign at The Breakfast Club - "Home of the Bacon Butty" although it wasn't a patch on Popham Little Chef's Heston special with five rashers of  Denhay Wiltshire cure bacon - two back and three streaky - in quality bloomer bread.  That was magnificent.

Pret's new British Bacon Buttie sold from the heated wrap/porridge unit

Just the Best Breakfast

Freshly cut orange and grapefruit segments plus the prunes

Blackberry, Raspberry & Strawberry fresh fruit purees 

Quality fruit salad - grapes, raspberries, blueberries and strawberries 

Darren's homemade muesli 

Homemade Lemon Curd, Yorkshire Heather Honey & Yorkshire Honey Marmalade 

Alan Walkers handmade sausage, Wensleydale middleback bacon, roast tomato, homemade black pudding, flat cap mushrooms, Heinz baked beans, free-range egg

Darren Parkinson is the Head Chef of Shibden Mill Inn, just outside Halifax, and he should be really proud of  the breakfast (and all the other meals) he and his team produce.  First class.  Actually the best I have ever had (and I've had a few breakfasts in my time).  Not perfect - the coffee and toast could be improved - but Shibden Mill Inn's breakfast sets a standard few come close to.

Pancakes on the Panini Grill

Another clever idea from Starbucks which draws on their US heritage and uses the panini grill to the full.

It allows them to promote their breakfast offer big time.
