A mouthwatering house made turkey patty rests under a fried or scrambled egg (go scrambled) on this sammy, available at Early Bird’s Queen West location. Dijon mustard, chipotle mayo, smashed avo, and aged cheddar finish the masterpiece, which is served on super soft and squishy brioche.

Tucked away in a cozy coffee shop at College and Dufferin is one of the city’s most flavourful ways to start the day. Egg, cheese, and thick-cut bacon come together with a sauce that offers the most subtle dijon flavours. All is served on an English muffin that’s always done extra crispy. This baby pairs perfectly with a hot cup of coffee.

Gold Standard is serving up exactly what you’d think: the gold standard of breakfast sandwiches. A soft English muffin holds perfectly-scrambled eggs, thick and juicy bacon (or crispy kale), mayo and — wait for it — pickles. Yes, pickles. You’ll think it’s wrong until you taste it, and then you’ll know in your bones that it’s right.
