Breakfast Club gives new meaning to “sunny side up”

Featured Posts,Just Because

Thought we had just walked into a West Hollywood hotspot. Most people in the dining room had their sunglasses on, and anyone who didn’t seemed to be looking away when they talked. As it turned out, they weren’t acting complacent, they were just protecting their retinas.

If you’re having breakfast at The Breakfast Club in downtown Scottsdale, we advise having your meal after 9am, when the sun gets above the overhang and passes the point of directly blaring into the place. We asked our server to close the shades, but it turns out there are no shades … yet. Ironic, right? A breakfast joint that’s actually uncomfortable because it’s so bright. Even the servers were blocking rays with their hands when addressing customers.

When ours enacted the handheld sun-block to us yesterday, we were asking about a possible WiFi password, but it turns out there is no WiFi. Listen, we hate to demand things of independent businesses, but your place is filled with working-class folk donning iPads and laptops, you can’t hook a guy up with a little internet? Maybe they don’t want people to linger. Maybe they’re saving up for shades first. Maybe we should just go for eggs at The Daily Dose.

    Since this is a new space, they probably have not experienced this before, so give ‘em a chance. Not sure about the wi-fi, why does every place need that? My only complaint is that they do not serve soda anymore.

    Do love the food and service, though. Belgian waffle w/ blueberry compote has to be the best meal anywhere!
