We visited Zakinthos in mid March, staying out of season, in Zante Town itself for 3 nights. As is usual when we stay, we decided to take breakfast at Circus All Day.
This restaurant is located literally just off of the main shopping street in Zante Town. With indoor, outdoor and garden area seating, this is a lovely place to eat. Circus themed of course, with pastel decor and a swing in the garden area for those instagram pics - I think there is one of me somewhere from last time (there was a small child on there today and I really didn’t feel like I could push her off for an insta pic!!).
We sat in the outside area (covered), sheltered from the March breeze. We were lucky enough to visit on the day they launched their new Brunch Tower - priced at 23euros, the Tower is an afternoon tea style three tier stand with toast, 2 pancakes and a huge croissant on the bottom layer; an English breakfast of bacon, egg, mushrooms and hash browns on the mid section; and berries and chocolate sauces (chocolate and strawberry) and maple syrup on the top. Washed down with a Freddo Espresso for G and my usual latte (with a small bottle of water included for just 10 cents each) it was absolutely NOSTIMO!!
We did have a small hiccup at the start as the server was not aware that Circus All Day had advertised the launch of the Brunch Tower on Instagram starting TODAY so initially we were told it was unavailable and we ordered alternative food, however after 5 minutes we were told that they could do this for us and that it would cost 23 euros. A real bargain!
With a total bill of 31 euros including the coffee, I felt that this was a real value for money breakfast as we sampled a little bit of everything.
We normally opt for pancakes when we come here as I love their American Pancakes with bacon and egg or the eggs Benedict and G has had the açaí bowl and the strawberry pancakes which again are fab. It’s well worth a visit and I’d definitely come again. You do not appear to be able to book so I would suggest getting there early to avoid having to wait. There are of course plenty of places in Zante Town to get a cooked breakfast, pastry and coffee or something yoghurt based (which is obviously very popular in all of Greece), but Circus All Day is a fun place to visit and it really won’t break the bank.
So, wherever you decide to eat your breakfast in Zante Town, enjoy !
