If you're staying at Lucky Villa, our six-bedroom vacation home near the Strip, and the group wants a proper breakfast that doesn't cost Strip prices, Broken Yolk Cafe at Town Square is an easy one. We went on a Sunday morning. The room is clean and spacious, the menu covers almost everyone, and the prices are what locals pay. When you're done, the Strip is about ten minutes away.

Why go

Breakfast on the Strip is often a long line, a loud room and a big bill. Broken Yolk is a breakfast-and-lunch chain, and the Las Vegas location is at Town Square, just south of the Strip at 6805 S. Las Vegas Blvd. It doesn't feel like a casino café. It feels like a neighborhood breakfast spot where people actually sit and talk.

The dining room is big and bright, with plenty of space between tables.

Clean, roomy and quiet enough to talk

The room stood out first. It's especially clean, there's a lot of space, and it isn't too noisy. That matters more than you'd think. I've had business conversations here before, and you can hear each other without leaning across the table. If you're in town for a conference or meetings and need a breakfast spot to talk shop, this works well.

A menu for the whole group

The menu covers a lot of tastes. There are the classic pancakes and French toast, plus tacos for anyone who wants something savory. For the brunch crowd there's a mimosa flight, and it's a strong one. That range is why it works for both vacation groups and business travelers. The person who wants a stack of pancakes and the person who wants a mimosa before the pool can order at the same table.

Local prices, ten minutes from the Strip

The prices are very fair, and a lot cheaper than a comparable breakfast on the Strip. You get a non-Strip breakfast at local prices, and it doesn't cost you the day: it's about ten minutes back to the Strip afterward. For a big Lucky Villa group, that difference adds up fast.

Bringing kids

If your group includes kids, there's a Little Chicks kids menu (it was $9.95 for an entrée, two sides and a drink when we visited) and an activity sheet to keep them busy while the adults finish their coffee.
