The Breakfast Club

Bordeaux


Be it beans on toast, a boiled egg with soldiers, crumpets dripping in melted butter or a classic fry-up (poetically listed as 'Morning Glory' on the menu), The Breakfast Club is the hot spot for traditional English breakfasts in Bordeaux. Seating is cushioned inside or around a couple of tables on the small pavement terrace. The cafe rocks at weekends.
