Before we set off for London I did a bit of searching around
to see where was good to eat as I love discovering new cool places. The Breakfast Club was one of the suggestions I got from twitter but I was warned
it is really popular and there is usually a queue. They certainly weren't
wrong! We waited an hour in the line to get inside, I've never waited that long
to get in a restaurant ever but hoped it would live up to its popularity.
When we finally got in after our chilly wait there was still
a huge queue behind us, which we felt quite smug about. Inside it was small,
quaint and alternative with different nick-knacks pinned to the wall and fairy
lights hanging from the ceiling. They seated us in the back and we were soon given
our menus.
After waiting outside so long in the cold I needed a hot
chocolate to warm me up and although I don’t usually have them I opted for
marshmallows. They came in ‘the breakfast club’ mugs, which I really want, and
it was the yummiest hot chocolate I have ever had! I would go back just for
their hot chocolate!
I had a lot of time to review the menu whilst in the line
and wasn't quite sure what to pick as there were so many good things on the
menu. I was torn between the posh sausage sandwich and the all American, in the
end, it had to be the all American because I wanted pancakes. When it came I was
not disappointed all of it was so tasty and full of flavour. There was so much
on my plate I had to keep chipping away at each bit otherwise I would have
filled up on one bit and not tried the others.
Having to endure the hour-long wait in the queue was worth
it as we thoroughly enjoyed our food and drink which was complemented by the
friendly staff. I would definitely visit again but next time I might try one of
their other locations in the hope it will be less busy than the flagship restaurant.
