The Galley Café

English breakfast in Lyme Regis
With a laid-back surf aesthetic, The Galley Café is an ideal spot for those wanting a relaxing start to the morning. Here, holidaymakers can enjoy the “Full Montgomery” breakfast, featuring yummy, locally sourced bacon, eggs and sausage.

Wash that down with a cup of steaming hot java from the Italian style coffee machine for that extra cherry on top.

Town Mill Bakery

At the Town Mill Bakery, visitors can treat themselves to the delicious “Baker’s Breakfast”, a divine dish made up of a juicy Cumberland sausage, poached egg, roasted cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, house mixed beans and sourdough toast.

For vegetarians, an equally yummy version of the dish can be made with avocado and diced potatoes in place of the sausage.

Enjoy a nourishing full English surrounded by Lyme Regis history. This 16thcentury building was once a place for political speeches and is named for the alarm bell that rang there.

Now, it houses an impressive 18th century cannon, as well as a restaurant where hungry tourists can eat a sensational breakfast. It’s equally superb for lunch or dinner, hence its spot on our list of the best restaurants in Lyme Regis.
