The Best Breakfast in Ashby de la Zouch
Start Your Morning at Lil Bo’s Deli
Looking for the best breakfast in Ashby de la Zouch? Whether you’re a bacon butty traditionalist, a pancake lover, or on a hunt for the silkiest poached egg in town — you’re in the right place. Welcome to Lil Bo’s Deli, where mornings start with sizzling satisfaction, fresh coffee, and smiles that are sunnier than your eggs.
We’re proud to be your friendly, local spot where breakfast means more than just the first meal of the day. It’s a moment to pause, connect, and indulge. So, what makes Lil Bo’s the perfect breakfast destination for locals and visitors alike? Let’s dig in.
What Makes a Great Breakfast Spot?
Is it the crackle of perfectly grilled bacon? The irresistible aroma of fresh-ground coffee? Or maybe it’s that little corner seat with the morning sun peeking in?
At Lil Bo’s Deli, we believe it’s all of that — and more. It’s the balance of quality ingredients, hearty options, warm service, and a relaxed setting that invites you to linger. Whether you’re popping in before work or catching up with friends, we’ve got your morning sorted.
From Light Bites to Full-On Feasts
Not everyone wakes up ravenous, and we get that. That’s why our breakfast menu ranges from dainty to decadent.
A Lighter Start
Fancy something small but satisfying? Grab a buttery croissant — plain, or filled with ham and cheese for a continental twist. Our toast with jam, marmalade, or honey is a nostalgic classic, and the tea cake with butter offers that sweet-spiced comfort you didn’t know you needed.
Health-conscious? Go for yoghurt topped with honey or our luscious cherries & berries compote — fresh, creamy, and a little bit indulgent.
Proper Breakfasts, Done Right
When you’re ready to take the day by storm, our full plates don’t hold back. Whether you’re plant-based or a proper meat-lover, we’ve got you covered.
For the Meat Lovers
Let’s talk about The Pig. This beast of a breakfast is loaded with bacon, sausage, and both Fruit Pig black pudding and white pudding — balanced by vine tomato, mushrooms, a perfectly poached egg, and toast. Want more? The Big Pig ups the ante with double bacon and sausage, plus baked beans for good measure.
Looking for something unique? Try The Hash — a bold combo of black and white pudding, haggis, crushed potatoes, and poached egg. It’s comfort food redefined.
Veggies, We’ve Got You Too
Our Veggie Breakfast is no afterthought. With grilled halloumi, veggie haggis, mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, and a poached egg — all on toast — it’s a plant-powered winner that doesn’t skimp on satisfaction.
Eggs the Way You Love Them
Who doesn’t love a good egg? Poached, scrambled, or served over smashed avo with a chilli-lime twist — we’ve got an egg dish for every preference. Pair your eggs with smoked salmon, mushrooms, or even just good, honest toast. Feeling fancy? Try our Eggs Benedict, Florentine, or Royale — all served on muffins with rich hollandaise sauce and that trademark Lil Bo’s finesse.
Sweet Treats for Morning Cravings
Sometimes, breakfast should feel like dessert. Our buttermilk pancakes or French toast, served with maple syrup and smoked bacon or forest fruit and yoghurt, offer that sweet-savoury balance that’s hard to resist. Fluffy, golden, and just the right amount of indulgent.
Bubbly Breakfasts — Because Why Not?
Fancy a breakfast with a sparkle? Our Lil Bo’s Bubbly Breakfast is available every day from 10am to 12 noon. Start with a glass of cava (or cava rosé) and fresh juice, enjoy a hearty dish from the breakfast menu, nibble on mini pastries, and sip on a proper pot of tea or coffee.
It’s perfect for birthdays, brunch with friends, or just because you feel like treating yourself. Go on — you deserve it.
What About Drinks?
Great food deserves equally great drinks — and we take our beverages seriously. We serve artisan coffee, premium teas, and a colourful range of iced drinks that are as refreshing as they are Instagram-worthy.
Love an iced latte on a sunny day? We make ours smooth and full of flavour. Fancy an iced chai or a fruity cold brew? You’ll find something unique and seasonal every time you visit.
So if you’re an iced drink aficionado, Lil Bo’s is the spot in Ashby de la Zouch. Even on chilly mornings, you’d be surprised how many of our regulars are sipping cold brews like it’s high summer.
