I desperately wanted a downtown breakfast today and at 7:45 I was taunted at Five Points Cafe by a “Open at 7am” street sign that was safely locked inside. At Rue Cler there were signs of life - at least someone waved and motioned ‘five more minutes’. I had to settle for Blue Coffee coffee and a pastry in the end.

Downtown durham is sorely lacking for good breakfast…or any breakfast other than pastries. Weekends are KEY. I’ll be beside myself when even Toast decides its worth their while to open for breakfast on the weekends (yes, I know they’re open weekdays…and at 11am on saturday…but i’m talking BREAKFAST) Guy at five points mentioned they’re moving towards breakfast, but when i happily mentioned breakfast sandwiches or even simple egg dishes or waffles…he gleefully switched over to pastries and possibly a croissant sandwich
Its the one thing I really want in Durham…

My favorite breakfast is from Nosh at Erwin Terrace–opens at 7:30 weekdays and 8:00 on weekends, http://www.noshfood.com/menu.html. Mad Hatter’s, http://madhatcafe.com/, at the corner of Main and Broad is another good bet; they open at 7:00 M-Sat and 8:00 on Sunday.
