Breakfast club: the full monty


Booking it down Regent St, we made it into St James park and managed to find Inn the Park with two minutes to spare before the noon cutoff when most London cafes stop serving breakfast. Unfortunately, Inn the Park stops serving at 11am. Drat!

Whipped out the ol' smartphone and googled "best English breakfasts london served all day" and landed on a time out review of Breakfast Club. They have quite a few variations on the traditional English brekkie, from more vegtastic mutations to somewhat more Americanized fare like pancakes.

The "full monty" pictured herein is two eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, mushroom, and a grilled tomato. All was scrumptious, save for the tomato which wasn't quite grilled enough for my taste. The thick brioche, lightly coated with a sheen of butter, was the perfect sponginess for yolk diving. The plate will cost you about 7 pounds. There are cheaper brekkie spots to be sure, but I ate my money's worth!
