1.
Ravenous, Cannon Street, Preston This is an independent coffee shop serving full breakfasts and lunch, Eggs Benedict, porridge, toast, soups, jackets, salads, toasties, homemade cakes, and hot/cold drinks. Many customers rave about their delicious toast, as well as the popular breakfast munchie boxes.

2.
I Smile Cafe, Plun gington Road, Preston This little cafe offers two sizes of English breakfast - large and mini - and a choice of veggie or the more traditional fare with bacon and sausage. Children are also well catered for here, with mini breakfasts available to suit their smaller appetites. And if you can’t manage a full English breakfast you can always pick up a bacon barm or sausage barm, or ‘something on toast’. This is a lovely place to visit, not least due to their little oasis of calm where you can dine al fresco in the hustle and bustle of a very busy area in the city. You can even get treats for your dog here! To find out more, or even order online, visit http://www.i-smilecafe.com/

3.
