Egginton’s 
1A Ashton Lane, Sale M33 6WT

If you’ve ordered from Egginton’s before, you’ll understand why we can’t stop going on about it. The food is a step ahead of many of its competitors, thanks to the talents of its owner and head chef, Bob Egginton. 

For the meat-eating breakfast gang, you can pick from traditional options, while vegetarians are treated to halloumi or crispy tofu options (both delicious). Other options include eggs Benedict, Florentine and royale or a pile of Egginton’s pancakes, which come with streaky bacon and maple syrup. Sign me up! 

I cannot overstate just how fortunate we are to have Egginton’s in Sale –next time you’re treating yourself to breakfast (or lunch, or dinner!), head over to the cafe on Ashton Lane.

Jackalope
46 School Lane, Sale M33 7XE

If anyone knows an Instagrammable dish when it sees one, it’s the new addition to Sale, Jackalope. Thankfully, it’s not a case of style over substance – the food stands on its own. 

Jackalope has loads of breakfast options available on the menu, including a full breakfast (with bacon and sausage supplied by everybody’s favourite Sale butcher, Taylors). They aren’t afraid to take a classic dish and notch it up a level or two; try their shaksouka, steak & eggs hash or huevos rancheros, for example/

Jackalope breakfast and brunch isn’t just for a quick ‘fill me up’ on a hungover morning – it’s the kind of food experience you can enjoy any day of the week, whatever your mood. 

Jenny’s Place Cafe
7 Stanley Square, Sale M33 7WZ

As Sale’s regeneration continues at a pace and new food and drink options arrive in town, it’s important to remember the originals who have continued to serve up delicious cuisine this whole time. Jenny’s is one such ‘place’ (some pun intended). Located in Stanley Square, Jenny’s is consistently busy; locals know what they are going to get if they pop in – quick service, generally large portions and, most importantly, freshly-cooked food.

A traditional cafe, Jenny’s Place keeps it classic when it comes to breakfast, sticking with the winning formula that makes a full English. Expect toast, beans, sausage, bacon, hash browns, mushrooms and a fried egg. Why mess with something that has worked for so long? 

Porta 134

Porta 134 in Sale Moor recently re-opened its doors after a huge makeover. This Greek-inspired coffee shop serves up a traditional Cypriot breakfast, which includes eggs, grilled halloumi, feta, olives and sourdough toast.   

If you’re not hungry enough for a large breakfast, Porta 134 also serves up a selection of baked treats for those who prefer their breakfast on the sweeter side.
