Wild Honey
Breakfast and brunch specialist Wild Honey ranks as one of our favourite spots for the widest selection of all-day breakfast around. Its menu concept features 15 scrumptious breakfast platters from different countries around the world, so it's quite the global gastronomical adventure! With its very #foodporn worthy dishes, consistently good food and relaxed ambience, it is no surprise that Wild Honey continues to win legions of hungry tummies seeking a delicious all-day breakfast experience.

Book Cafe
An oldie but a goodie, this established bistro continues to win both book and breakfast lovers with its all-day breakfast menu. Their breakfast portions are truly generous, so be prepared to bring along your appetite for your food (and literature)! Breakfast aside, we absolutely love the vibe here. The floor-to-ceiling shelves in its spacious living area is every bibliophiles' dream, brimming with eclectic reads, newspapers and magazines.

Common Man Coffee Roasters
Considering it has clinched the title of 'Readers' Choice Best Cafe' by SG Magazine consecutively in 2014 and 2015, you can rest assured that the cafe's breakfast fare will not disappoint. We love the Fluffy Brioche French Toast (SGD18) in particular, which features two slices of brioche generously topped with tart berry compote and Kapiti Vanilla Ice Cream. Admittedly, their menu items lean more on the pricier side; nonetheless, if you love a good brekkie in an atmospheric cafe, this one's a winner.

Dong Po Colonial Cafe
Western-style breakfasts and brunches are no doubt absolutely scrumptious; but if you like your breakfast Singaporean style, Dong Po Colonial Cafe definitely warrants a visit! Much like the chain Ya Kun Kaya or Toast Box eateries, this cafe serves local, old-school breakfast treats like the classic Kaya Butter Toast with Soft-Boiled Eggs and Tea or Coffee (SGD4.50) that will absolutely warm your soul. Don't expect just your standard coffee shop kaya toast fare, however; the cafe also serves unique breakfast iterations like their Bostock (SGD3.5O with coffee or tea) - a French-style toast - or a Shibuya-style toast (SGD5.20), among others.

Group Therapy
For an extensive all-day breakfast menu that does not disappoint, you can't go wrong with Group Therapy. For a breakfast feast of epic proportions, give their Big Plate a go: a generous platter consisting of grilled mushrooms, honey cured bacon, pork bratwurst, side salad, toast and eggs the way you like it!

Hatched
If you love your eggs - poached, scrambled, fried, you name it - Hatched is the place to be. This charming little spot dedicates a full section on their menu to this humble, classic breakfast staple prepared in various styles. Although the portions are not large, you can expect great quality ingredients like French brioche, blackforest ham, even foie gras to go alongside your eggs. For the health-conscious folks: request for an egg-white omelette instead, cooked a la Spanish-style with fried potatoes, onions and capsicums.
267 Holland Avenue. Breakfast till 11PM.

Strictly Pancakes
And of course, we can't have a round-up on the best all-day breakfast spots without including the all-time breakfast favourite: the pancakes! Strictly Pankcakes is no stranger to our local breakfast cafe scene. Serving a delicious selection of both savoury and sweet pancakes, it is the nadir of every pancake enthusiast. All its menu items are affordably priced between SGD11 to 15, which is great if you want to breakfast on a (relative) budget. And, contrary to its name, pancakes, the cafe does serve other popular breakfast dishes as well.

PODI
Brought to you by the same folks that gave us Cedele, PODI actually stands for Pure Offbeat Delicious Infusions. Complicated name choice aside, you'll love their selection of all-day breakfast foods. For a fail-proof, hearty option, we recommend the Stuffed Ham and Brie Brioche French Toast (SGD15) - a simultaneously sweet and savoury Spinach Brioche paired with smoked ham, eggs, brie cheese and drizzled with maple syrup.

There is just something about the quintessential pairings of classic breakfast items that just speaks to our soul. Think: runny eggs, succulent ham slices, thick toast, fluffy pancakes drenched in decadent syrup and a motley of other glorious breakfast goodness … Kind of makes you wish it was breakfast o’clock every hour, doesn’t it?
If you thought brunch was a genius way to prolong breakfast, you’ll love all-day breakfast dining concepts.
