Who Are Greystones’ New Breakfast Champions…?

utting this year’s Breakfast Of Champions together, we got a bit of a shock.

Our three previous winners are no longer frying up a stormer.

First to go on our winners list was the mighty John Hartnett and his fine Theatre Lane restaurant, then Three Q’s bowed out before the godfather of all Greystones eateries, Joe Sweeney, handed in his badge.

Which makes you realise just how hard it is to keep a business afloat, even with glittering awards and being in a town that’s doing better than most. 

We here in sunny Greystones are well served when it comes to the humble breakfast. Heck, whatever your tastes – from healthy to hearty, and all points inbetween – you should be able to find your ideal Start Me Up around here somewhere.

But which Greystones breakfast is your favourite? Does Caffe Delle Stelle‘s traditional fry-up get your motor runnin‘? Or maybe you prefer the Happy Pear‘s world-famous if controversial Sunrise Special – some free-range blueberries and wild yoghurt sprinkled on organic oats that have been crushed on the thighs of a virgin au pair that very morning? Then again, you might be feeling sassy (The Boat House Barista), classy (Bear Paw), brassy (Cafe Grey), eh, efficacy (Buoys Kitchen), Asha Bhosle (Daata), er, Tallahassee (Eleven Deli), fricasee (The Pigeon House), super-sassy (Tigernut), jazzy (Shoe Lane), flashy (Sonny’s), splashy (Firehouse Bakery), Selassie (Café Gourmet), Massey Ferguson (Kitchen 28), grassy (The Fat Fox) or maybe just gassy (Jokers)…?

And that’s just skimming the organic, free-range atheist porridge. There are plenty of options around these parts when it comes to starting your day with a smile and a burp.

So, let us know below who you think serves Greystones’ Breakfast of Champions in 2021 in the comments below – and you could win yourself a fine breakfast for two in the winning greasy spoon.
