Spreading holiday cheer can leave the wallet a little light this time of year.
Through our Eat See Do newsletter (sent out every Thursday) we put out a call to readers to send in their favorite cheap breakfast spots.
With those suggestions – and a few of our own – here’s a list of Long Beach eateries where you can grab a good breakfast for under $10:
Friendly Cup Cafe (1150 East Fourth Street)
Our reporter John recommends Long Beach’s best-kept breakfast secret in the Alamitos Beach neighborhood. The Long Beach Senior Center is open to the public and everything on the menu is under $5.
For $4.50, you can choose a breakfast burrito, a breakfast sandwich or a breakfast plate that comes with scrambled eggs, two pieces of bacon or sausage, a hashbrown and toast.
Coffee, tea and hot chocolate are all available for $1 for the regular size or $1.25 for the large.
