This August, Edinburgh’s St Andrew Square welcomes a slice of Notting Hill, as cult London brunch spot Eggbreak launches a month-long menu at The Spence at the Gleneagles Townhouse.
Running from 2-30 August, locals, visitors, hotel guests and members can enjoy Eggbreak’s signature breakfast plates in the elegance of The Spence’s glass-domed atrium.
This London institution is so good it is known for its queues out the door, so this is an ideal chance to try the popular breakfast and brunch dishes outside of Eggbreak’s Notting Hill home.
On weekdays, from 7-10.30am,selected Eggbreak favourites will join The Spence’s breakfast classics. These will be marked by an egg illustration, making them easy to spot.
The breakfast dishes include: House quinoa granola date yoghurt, served with orange, blueberries; Eggbreak Benedict toasted muffin with poached egg, brown butter hollandaise and Scottish smoked salmon or hardwood smoked bacon; Turkish Eggs- poached eggs, dill yoghurt, smoked paprika and a cheese toastie, and Nutella French Toast with cornflakes and mascarpone.
On Saturdays and Sundays between 8am-11am, the menu has more Eggbreak crowd-pleasers such as: Wilde’s Deli Sunrise Shakshuka - rich spiced tomato sauce, poached eggs, candied Jalapeño schmear, Matzo pickle crumb, dill oil, brioche mustard salt beef “Toastie” to dip; Mexican Omelette with avocado, chilli, spring onion, feta cheese and coriander and Ari’s Pancakes banana, raspberries, salted caramel butter.
Drinks include iced matcha and Eggbreak’s hydrating berry or strawberry sunshine teas.
Eggbreak serves over half a million each year, using only free-range eggs from Fenton Farm, a supplier focused on sustainability, quality, happy hens.
In Edinburgh, The Spence sources their eggs from Nith Valley whilst spotlighting local suppliers; Glen & Co smoked salmon from George Campbells and Perthshire berries from Raith Fruits.
Ewan Grant, general manager of the Gleneagles Townhouse said: “We’re bringing a little bit of Notting Hill to St Andrew Square during the festival.
"Fun, comforting—and effortlessly cool. For early birds, breakfast lovers and those chasing the perfect yolk, this one is worth getting out of bed for!”
