Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and starting the day off with the right fuel for traveling and exploring Shanghai is essential!
Blue Frog offers a nice selection of American and British-style breakfast options, and even has a Mexican breakfast burrito. The coffee is strong and tasty and you'll be energized for the whole day after starting it off right at Blue Frog.
Steak and Eggs is an institution in Shanghai. The food is delicious, affordable and reminds one of mama's home cooking. Hefty portions and constant refills make this a bargain as well.
For breakfast you don't usually head to the bar, but Malone's American Cafe has an amazing breakfast menu as well as lunch and dinner bar-fare.
Always Cafe is a genuinely pleasant and relaxing morning location to read the newspaper, munch on a pasty and slowly absorb your much-needed caffeine.
The Grand Cafe, the Atrium Cafre and 1931 Cafe offer an up-scale alternative to Starbucks, and leave you feeling good for visiting a small business that is efficient, sells a good breakfast product and helps you start the day off with the carbs you needs to keep going.
KABB and Le Salon both seem an odd brunch choice, but given the amazing dinner menus, both have mastered western breakfast and are offering delicious cuisine first thing in the morning.
Finally, for brunch or a small gathering in late morning, Element Fresh helps you start the day the healthy way. The milkshakes are especially delicious and come with added vitamins and energy boosts, if needed.
