The Breakfast Club have been ‘Taking care of breakfast since 2005’ and show no sign of slowing down, with their iconic yellow gaffs popping up everywhere across the capital.
Showcasing the best in comfort food in a cool industrial shipping container, The Breakfast Club’s quirky venue in Croydon’s Boxpark bills itself as “70s Christmas Chic” and is as cosy as you’d expect from that description.
The heavy, autumnal patterned curtains give the feel of a cocoon and there are tongue-in-cheek signs and posters strung up around the tight-knit space, a nod to the old-school nostalgia they do so well.
For veggies, the ‘Butternut Bubble’ is a delight – butternut squash with potato & spinach bubble, mushrooms, asparagus and an avocado hollandaise. Carnivores can’t go wrong with The BC Breakfast Burrito, which is full to the brim with chorizo, egg, peppers and spicy pepper sauce (also available as a veggie version). For an innovative taste of India, try the ‘Argy-Bhaji’, a spiced onion waffle with chilli fried egg, mango chutney and minted yoghurt.
Suppliers like Joe’s Tea and Karma Cola work closely with The Breakfast Club, cementing their status as a champion of independent businesses and ethical practices Their products are all sustainable and come from across the country to celebrate the best of British.
Croydon Boxpork has a number of artisan food businesses so why not have a stroll around before leaving for East Croydon Rail, which is just a stones-throw away.
