The Breakfast Club in Hackney

Food definitely lived up to the hype, I have seen many reviews online saying it did not reach their expectations but it exceeded mine. I ate gluten free pancakes with bananas and strawberries which were divine, and the manager took her time to explain GF options and risk of cross-contamination. Staff were friendly, particularly the man who welcomed us. The only thing I would say is that the table was very small and the toilets were not clean.

Good breakfast, nice place, a little expensive

Had a fantastic brunch here! The food was fresh and flavorful, with great portion sizes. The service was friendly and attentive. Definitely a great spot for breakfast/brunch in London. Expect long queues on weekends.

Had a great brunch! The scrambled eggs were amazing.

I would recommend this as a perfect breakfast spot to anyone in the area! The best hash browns, pancakes, and fried eggs we have ever had, lovely atmosphere, and the staff were so attentive and so helpful. Could not have loved it more!

Great food. Very nice staff. Cozy place

Loved it! First time visiting the breakfast club. It reminds of a an old school London cafe but with a slightly cooler more modern twist. Food was so so good! Proper brews. Great service. Lovely friendly people and the best hollandaise sauce I've ever had. Can't wait to return!

Well done Manuel and David... kind, welcoming and typical London food. Everything was excellent!!!!

Good breakfast, plenty of choice,nice fresh ingredients .

Had a wonderful girly brunch. Food was banging. One of my fave spots!! Manuel was soo lovely!!

Came with a big group and Manuel really looked after us! Paid attention to detail and ensured we had what we needed at every turn. A lot of us had dietary requirements and they were attended to. This is our second time returning and the level of service has consistently been great. Would highly recommend!

Quite disappointed with our first ever visit here. It was my sisters 30th birthday and there were 5 of us eating this morning. Lovely guy in a blue tshirt took us to our table which was right by the door which was fine but it was absolutely freezing and the door kept being propped open by people waiting for a table. I ended up sitting with my scarf on and coat across my legs to try and stop the chill. He also asked if there were any allergies and I said yes coconut and tree nuts. He said absolutely fine he'd let the manager know. The next waiter came over to take drinks orders and asked about allergies so I said again tree nuts and coconut and asked if I could have a drink with no Almond syrup in it. He then went over to the manager and said I had an almond and nut allergy (I can lip read)red flag. Manager came over and said I couldn't have that drink which was premixed which is absolutely fine and I told her that her waiter hadn't mentioned my coconut/tree nut allergy (different to a nut allergy!) and she was brilliant and told me what I could and couldn't haven't including what was actually used in the kitchen and bar - brilliant knowledge and felt very safe from then on. French Toast was absolutely delicious and hot, pancakes were lukewarm, as was my husband's meal, poached eggs absolutely rock solid. Potatoes delicious. Drinks absolutely great. Husband couldn't have a milkshake as they said they had just run out of ice cream. The staff looked so frazzled and were rushed off their feet, they did apologise repeatedly for the delays in drinks coming (came after we'd started food). We also asked for the bill as we weren't having more drinks and it wasn't brought but the waiter came to say they needed the table back (we'd only been there an hour and hadn't finished drinks) so we asked again for the bill and that took a while. The atmosphere in the place was great, toilets clean, good music and really lovely vibe, would definitely like to go back and try it again but not at the table by the door. Before anyone asks - no we didn't say anything about the cool food or the hard eggs at the time because the staff literally were running round and we didn't want to make more work FOR them, or spoil my sister's occasion, but I'm sure they would have tried to rectify it.

Fab experience all round, we had to wait for friends who were over an hour late due to train issues and they couldn't be more accommodating. Great food, even better service and good experience all round.

Early opening is tricky, I need to be gentle with me,so as nice as Macdo coffee is..I'm more All Saints than spice girl, I'll go hear..the delivery,the manners are hear with out the strip lights, touching menus,and pictures of food that aren't really actually what you get here it is.

Great selection of breakfast, this was also very tasty. Coffee and smoothie were also good. It was a successful start to the day!

Thank you it was a beautiful moment

Very nice, we loved it so much we went back without hesitation.

Great food and great atmosphere

Pancakes here are amazing, and the quality of the food is more than matched by the service.

Nice and energetic to start the morning with. Friendly service

The service was amazing, the people really nice and kind. Food amazing too.

If you need a curer then certainly worth a visit for a home feel cooked breakfast and mugs of coffee.

I have eaten all around london, this is by far the best breakfast in town.

A lovely and cozy breakfast spot that I definitely recommend! The staff is incredibly friendly, and the food is absolutely delicious. The chicken, bacon & waffles were outstanding, and the special gingerbread pancakes were the perfect finishing touch. A must-visit!

It’s a lovely place with super nice and friendly staff. I do recommend it for a nice breakfast.

I had a delicious avocado toast, it was filling and very tasty. The staff are all so lovely as well. We walked in around 12.30 on a Saturday and were seated immediately. Service is quick. I just wish I had enough room to try the pancakes!

It was very delicious, a lot of vegetarian options. The service is also great, will come back again!

Great food, delicious burger and fries and great customer service.

This place is very worth it, everything is great, there is a waiter called Manuel, he speaks Spanish and is super friendly, 100% recommended.

Coming to this place always feels like coming home. The staff are consistently friendly, and the food is incredibly tasty. Luky and Amy stand out for their attention to detail—they remember my name and how I like my coffee. Even when they’re busy, they make it a point to acknowledge me and take care of me as soon as they can.

Great breakfast at 3pm! We loved the vibe and the food!

Nice and friendly staff, superb breakfast

We found this breakfast club while we stayed at a nearby hotel. The waiters in there are really friendly, it has a good atmosphere there. They have vast breakfast option. I had the American pan cakes triple stack, it has bacon, harsh brown, sausage putty inside, it’s massive. I could only manage to eat half of it, but it’s really tasty. When we left around 11am, there is a big queue about 15 people outside. So make sure you book your table.

The loveliest staff, creating the loveliest atmosphere. A special mention to Dan who was cheerful, attentive and a lovely energy to see at 8am! Also another mention to Alex, who we’ve been looked after for a few visits now. Alex is polite, really attentive and just makes our dining experience that much better! Thanks team!

The servers are attentive to your needs and requests.

The food is delicious, the service is great and the place is nice.

Always a pleasure at the breakfast club but this is the first time I’ve been to this specific one - honestly shout out for the service, although it was an extremely busy Sunday morning the staff were so helpful, friendly, communicative and got a table for us as soon as possible. The food is always banging (the breakfast burger in particular) and they gave me extra cheese sauce in the burger instead of ketchup without even looking at me strangely which is a massive plus. They also didn’t try and squeeze the 3 of us onto a tiny table to space save, we got literally an entire massive oblong dining table which was nice. Only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is cos of the prices - I know it’s a well known spot in London but £7 for a large green juice (£5 for a regular which is teeny)? Cmonnnnn. I will however most definitely return lols

Excellent brunch. Eggs Benedict and toast with scrambled eggs and smoked salmon were nice and good. I also really enjoyed the American coffee. I would happily return

Simply very good and friendly staff.

Great place to have breakfast as a celiac! Loved the pancakes, they were delicious. Staff was super friendly and the cappucino looked and tasted awesome.

Best English/American Style Brunch in Heart of London. If you're searching for the perfect London brunch spot, look no further than The Breakfast Club in Hoxton. This place delivers everything you'd want from a hearty, comforting meal with a touch of indulgence. The moment your plate arrives, you’ll be greeted with crispy, golden hash browns paired with creamy scrambled eggs cooked to perfection. The grilled sausage adds a satisfying savory bite, while the perfectly toasted sourdough makes each mouthful a treat. But it’s not just the food that makes this place shine—pairing the meal with a frothy cappuccino and fresh orange juice elevates the entire experience. The refreshing citrus burst complements the richness of the breakfast spread, making each sip a delightful contrast. The breakfast’s balance of flavors and textures keeps you satisfied yet wanting more. The atmosphere of The Breakfast Club, with its cozy retro décor and welcoming vibe, makes you feel right at home. It’s the ideal setting for a relaxing start to your day or a laid-back brunch with friends. If you're craving a classic English breakfast, their Full Monty is a must-try—sunny side up eggs, thick-cut bacon, juicy tomatoes, and grilled mushrooms round out this plate of morning bliss. From top-notch service to the rich flavors on the plate, The Breakfast Club at Horton is an absolute five-star experience. You won't want to miss this gem if you're in London!

This is a high 4, around a 4.7 I would say. It is a lovely place, quite a hole in the wall kind of situation as it's down a road, not alot of signing and through a double yellow door. It was popular but not too busy and the wait staff didn't feel rushed or that they didn't have time for us. Food tasted really good, visually was appetizing and came quite quick for how busy the restaurant was. The only downside for me was I chose the big stack and the onions on it ruined it. I kind of wish they were on the side of in a bowl, or I even had removed them but for me, onions and pancakes don't go. I would have chosen the pancake plate however there wasnt an option to add bacon to them, just other items. It isn't too expensive and the amber juice drinks wise was delicious! I would come back but I'd have a fry up as they were passing by the sausages looked juicy, bacon crispy and eggs done fantastic, but we live and learn! So yes, 4.7 it is.

Lovely food, and lovely service. it’s a little overpriced but that’s London for you. Minor note 📝 need bigger plates - bacon is the star of this place.

Great veggie options. Lovely staff.

Great service but food took a good 45 min and eggs were overdone. Black pudding was almost burned but all the rest were cooked to perfection. Incredible staff, polite, completely aware of every table and it was full and have to say they managed a lot of rude clients that day and can’t comment enough their calmness and effectiveness to deal with issues and might say borderline abusive behaviours. Kudos team 👏🏼

Absolutely top, very nice service, great british food, cozy. I'll be happy to come back

Always vibrant and a fun place to go, the food is good quality and very tasty. Lots of options on the menu for all tastes, good quality service even when busy. I go for the full English with good portions and a nice coffee with the occasional health drink thrown in. Beautiful

I would not recommend to anyone. We waited 1 hour for the food. Service staff is very friendly but kitchen is really disorganised up. It took 3 different trials for me to receive the right order (it was not right in the end anyways but I was starving). Portions are really small I got 1 scrambled egg instead of 2 and I left hungry in the end. We have shared a French Toast and it was not like a French Toast.

Worst service ever. Dont even try, it’s not worth the hype

Service was weak, portions are really small. It’s crowded but also relentlessly noisy. There are strong alternatives in the area.

One of the tastiest breakfasts I ever had

Thank you to Daniel and Amy! Lovely vibe

I believe her name is Amy! What a wonderful gem! It’s hard to come by service so personable and intimate but I genuinely felt like I was a cut above the rest. Looking for to next time!

Great food as we used remember before we had kids!! No that they are old enough to appreciate it too.

I had a breakfast at this place. Manu was my server, here was friendly and attentive. Overall the food was quite nice and generous. If you are looking for a traditional English breakfast this is one to try. It’s called The Full Monty here, see pictures attached

This is a gem of a place! Absolutely amazing breakfast. I’m normally a ketchup girl and this did not need anything adding to the plate! Definitely worth a visit and the next time I’m in London I will be back!!!

Ordered the fried chicken, waffles, bacon and gravy as usual and disappointed that the ‘fried chicken’ is now done with panko instead of buttermilk. Hardly any gravy on the waffle and when asked for more was told it’s a separate charge. It wasn’t bad but miss the old dish.

It's a nice shop with an open and friendly atmosphere. I ordered the Full Monty and a flat white, and my family ordered smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, and fresh juice. The food and drinks were very good. Also, the surrounding cityscape was beautiful and very impressive.

I love The Breakfast Club. They have the best brunch in town. Any location is great. Always going back

Even though it's a busy place, they manage the service and flow very well. They don't put pressure and are responsive. Afterwards I'm not really convinced by the value for money and the originality of the card but it does the job very well.

Large vintage-style venue, perfect for hearty breakfasts or relaxed brunches. The menu is very rich and offers various types of sweet and savory pancakes, fried and scrambled eggs, waffles, avocado toast, very filling sandwiches - all accompanied by coffee, juices, soft drinks or cocktails. The service is a little slow, it can improve, but overall the opinion is positive and I would definitely go back.

The breakfast club knows what it’s doing when it comes to good, hearty breakfasts! Options ranging from classic fry ups, to your avocado on toast. The staff are so lovely and attentive, and service is swift! The breakfast club is a safe and reliable go to, that never disappoints. I always leave feeling full up and satisfied!

Incredible service and food. Glad the beans weren't just normal beans, had some real flavor.

The food and service was amazing. 👍🏿👍🏿

Came for brunch, and from the start it was just poor service, we had to ask for syrup and the bill three times , drinks order was wrong, waiter spilled syrup in my drink and all over the table. Waiters were dropping food left right and centre and the food it’s self was dry, cold and so below average especially for a “breakfast club” really unhappy with the whole experience

poor poor poor service Really dry waffles, need to ask for more gravy and maple syrup that you have to pay for. The works take really long to do anything. Took ages to get anyone attention. Have to ask multiple times to different staff to get stuff as they dont remember or care.

Just a marvellous and delicious place to have your rich breakfast. Staff is absolutely friendly, happy and motivated. On my next Trip to London, this place is a 100% safe to be visited again.

Service wa very friendly and welcoming. The place was quite busy and bustling when we arrived but we were seated quickly. Our orders were also taken and served quickly. We ordered the All American Breakfast and a chicken wrap with a caesar salad along with a black Americano. The coffee was very aromatic. I personally liked the pancakes, they were fluffy and soft. It went well with the maple syrup that was served. The chicken wrap was also very filling as was the breakfast. Both portions were quite large and worth the prices paid. The wrap itself was very flavourful with a delicious combination of chicken and veggies. Would definitely go back for a stack of pancakes next time!

Best vegan full breakfast I’ve eaten! Loved every item on the plate! Great service & nice chilled Sunday vibes

The breakfasts are very good, you pay a bit expensive but someday it is worth going. The place is very cool and very good service.

Been a few times for midweek breakfast around 9.30 and always very fast service and excellent food. The avocado toast with Halloumi is so tasty.

Food a little too salty for me. Well served, for two people who eat little, one dish is enough.

Great vegan options for breakfast, large portions and lovely coffee! Was very busy and it still was a great atmosphere and we were able to chat calmly.

We were amazed! Delicious and beautiful dishes. The portions were filling, so we soon realized that we ordered way too much. The staff was helpful and friendly, they took good care of us. Our order was ready soon, it took just about 5 minutes. This was a perfect place to start a day in London. <3

Absolutely delicious food, and lovely staff. Would highly recommend the "All American" which was well cooked and delightful. Will definitely be back for seconds.

Terrible place, terrible breakfast, undrinkable coffee, cloudy coffee

The full monty was great and my daughter loved the pancakes

Service was forgetful and slow. Food soggy to the point that I couldn't eat it.

Lovely atmosphere. I've been here handful of times over the past week. All three times I ordered eggs benedict and the first two times the muffins were quite tough and hard to cut through. The third time was perfect though. Regardless, the flavours were still great. Their Harissa Cheese Fries are something special and our the perfect side. Overall, really been enjoying this spot which is quite close to my work. Would recommend for a nice lunch.

Was surprised how small the plate was for the price. No toast included and my poached eggs were quite solid! My La Vie bacon 🥓 was overcooked too sadly.

There was a line but it moved quick and the food was great.

Visiting from New York, and truly the best breakfast in the area!

Had the All-American pancake dealy. Possibly the best breakfast ever. Everything done just right. All waiting staff friendly, good atmosphere although if I were to nitpick, maybe the music was a little loud and I had to strain my ears to hear people. Would definitely come here again (we did want to try Canary Wharf but they were booked up).

Absolutely love the place, service, food were excellent. Super friendly helpers. 👏

Delicious breakfast and excellent service. Only thing was coffee was a bit burnt.

A very nice place to have a good breakfast. Nice and polite service.

Standout service and excellent food.

Literally the best group of servers! I prefer huevos rancheros with crispy tortilla chips, but the huevos rancheros w/ chicken is so good, we came here two days in a row. Shout out to Alex, Deon, and Amy for the great service!

Perfect way to start the day in the Shoreditch neighborhood. Full Monty was on point. Super friendly staff. Like the classic rock/oldies soundtrack, too.

It was my first time eating a typical English breakfast and I really enjoyed it.

A bit pricey for a breakfast, but was worth it. Shakshouka was a bit surprising with the poached eggs, I was expecting baked ones, but quite tasty nevertheless. Great service and atmosphere, we came here more than once, and would not mind coming again )

Nothing too special. Quick and friendly service, food is ok.

Brunch was good, not too much quantity which was great, fast service, available space at 10h on a Sunday.

Sensational service and lovely food!

Truly amazing breakfast, super friendly and knowledgeable staff, exquisite food and normal prices compared to London prices and the location.

Nice little place in a location that I was not aware of the food and quality is so nice. I will definitely be back Service is 💯

A great place! Friendly Staff, very well organized, the food was just amazing, have the All American. Don’t go there late, it gets crowded. We got a table for two on a Saturday at 09:30. Thanks so much for having us, we will back.

Beautiful food! Value I thought overpriced, but the size of the meal soon changed that! Such a great eclectic mix of people! Great atmosphere!

Went on Thursday morning without reservation. We were five people. Friendly staff, outstanding atmosphere and delicious food. Many options for vegans.

Had Alex as our server he was awesome, made us feel welcome and he was very hospitable! Food was pretty good and the vibes were good the music was banging! If you go to the breakfast club make sure you look for Alex he was incredible. Will definitely be going back
