Central London Breakfast eatery?

Morning all
Any recommendations for a breakfast stop off in central London?
Something along the lines of a Greasy spoon cafe but the twist it needs to have parking as we've got 2 cars with us.
Thanks in advance.

Whereabouts in town are you aiming for? If you literally want 'onsite' parking I should think you'll be restricting yourself to poncey hotels. Hawksmoor Guildhall do a good breakfast allegedly if you're passing the square mile, and it should be easy enough to grab a couple of parking spaces on-street.Any recommendations for a breakfast stop off in central London?

Ah yes, that well known greasy spoon with excellent parking. With the besuited, tophat wearing doorman located right on Piccadilly.
So? Same as the Delaunay but when you get in there its fine and does great breakfasts!
The Hawksmoor breakfast is good, but you will always end up buying the fillet steak one so its a £25 job.

My apologies. I thought the premise of my post was clear.Same as the Delaunay but when you get in there its fine and does great breakfasts!

OP asked for a greasy spoon with good parking - the Wolsely is not a greasy spoon and doesn't have good parking, thus fulfilling neither criterion.
Concur with the Regency Cafe. Bring earmuffs, the lady behind the till screams the orders. Particularly dodgy when hungover!

The Regency Cafe in Westminster is awesome and good value too!
A proper old school, no luxurys greasy spoon.
Just don't ask for any money.A proper old school, no luxurys greasy spoon.

or Kruger in Canary Wharf (if its a weekend I think you can park in the underground car park for free, you just ask the Kruger staff to validate your parking ticket)

The Mona Lisa on the Kings Road does a great cooked breakfast. There's on street parking immediately outside, and at that time in the morning there are usually spaces. Bring change - RBKC hasn't worked out cashless car parking yet..
It's a real old-school Chelsea hang out, so usually an interested cross-section of the local community. And the breakfast is ace.

Blimey. Canary Wharf is now central London? Whod've thunk it? To get there, the OP would have to drive past umpteen genuine, East End greasy spoons.![hehe](/inc/images/hehe.gif)
I can vouch for the Regency it's good . As featured in Layer Cake and other films , parking pay an display
Selmos in Stratford bit of the beaten track on the way to Plastow possibly the cleanest cafe with nice loos, parking ok
I can't remember it's name , but the cafe opposite Morefields eye Hospital on a corner up the road towards the angel meters I think
The brothers cafe , Thames road Barking is good , nice coffee , well they are Turks easy parking
Victoria park , cafe in the middle nice eggs benedict last time I went there , parking ok
Loads of others but my brain is foggy at the moment

http://www.fatboysdiner.co.uk if out East (slightly more East than Canary Wharf) and 9am opening time is OK, ideal if you're heading in on the A13 or via Blackwall Tunnel. Plenty of free parking.
Haven't been since the change of ownership in Oct but I hear good things.
