Dear The Breakfast Club, we accept the fact that breakfast is
the most important meal of the day; eat breakfast like kings, lunch like
princes and dine like paupers. But we think that you are utterly brilliant to
make breakfast apart of every meal of every day. You see us the way we see
us...The grandeurs of humanity...in the most real definition. We are all part
of the royal carriage...one of us may be a teacher, a loyal friend, a business
person, a princess and a student of life. But what we’ve found out is that we
are all Kings. And you, The Breakfast Club, allow us to dine that way.
Sincerely yours,
The Public.
I love all things quirky and unique, and of course a place
that knows how to cook a good breakfast. After searching online for such a
place that would cater to my hungry needs I finally stumbled upon The Breakfast
Club’s website and thought, this is most likely my kind of place. I read loads
of reviews, mixed and positive, and finally had a day I could visit them from
lunch. I was a bit apprehensive about having something I could probably make at
home just a well, and thought the novelty of it may end up being a disappointment.
But I fell in love with the place as soon as I stepped through its doors. The Breakfast
Club’s quaint decor, its American style diner influence, but with the quirky English
feel to it, was dazzling. You may feel overwhelmed, everything seems to be close
(or intimate) but this is not a worry this just adds to the quaint cosy feel,
where everybody is just there to enjoy their breakfast. And I fell madly in
love with the most amazing breakfast.
After ordering a pitcher of Pimms (the sun finally showing
itself in London) for ourselves, my friend and I found it ever hard to pick
breakfast among the list of so many interesting meals. I was spoilt for choice;
the Fish Finger Sandwich, a selection of meaty sandwiches, The Full Monty, Pancakes.
I wanted everything. However we did finally order, with my friend having The
All American Pancakes containing proper American style pancakes, eggs (cooked
to your preference of poached, scrambled or fried), bacon and sausages with as
much maple syrup as you want. I went for Eggs Benedict, ham on a toasted
English muffin with a most creamy, delicious hollandaise sauce upon the best
poached egg that oozed with the brightest orange yolk, I almost devoured the
plate the food was that good. And the portions are not small. With breakfast
being the most important meal of the day, The Breakfast Club are not shy in
making sure their meals ready you for the day, whether it be morning, brunch,
lunch or dinner.
I shall definitely be returning to try out something else. The staffs are friendly, welcoming and attentive, adding to the comfy, chilled vibe of the diner. For a reasonable priced fulfilling meal (an average of £15 overall spent) The Breakfast Club is definitely the place you must try if you’re around London’s Liverpool Street, Spitalfields area, sitting upon Artillery Lane off of Bishopgate Street. And if you happen to be spending the evening there, make sure to ask to see the Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town, for The Breakfast Club have many other quirky surprises for you to splendour in.
The Breakfast Club is also in the area of Soho, Angel, Hoxton
and Eggquaters.
