Breakfast spots tend to become ritual and part of tradition. However, it’s always a great thing to step out of that comfort zone and try someplace new every now and then. Who knows, maybe a new tradition will start.

Here are 5 places we think you should revisit for breakfast that you just may have forgot about.

 

LAKESIDE DELI

We’re starting off the list with a Leamington joint that is already somewhat popular. We think it’s worth Lakeside Bakery being put on the list just so more people try their Big Butterknot sandwich.

 

RIVERSIDE PIE CAFE

Known for their exquisite pies, Riverside Pie Cafe offers breakfast fare like quiche, galettes and French toast. Even with those tasty, tasty treats, we think it’s the Sausage Biscuit that takes the cake.

 

SOUQ

An under-the-radar Middle Eastern restaurant that is quickly getting attention for its lunch and dinners, Souq is now offering breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays. Classic breakfast dishes are served alongside ones with a twist, like the Souq breakfast tajine.
