English Breakfast World Championship

An open international competition devoted to the English breakfast tradition

The English Breakfast World Championship has one goal, to find the worlds best English breakfast and the people who helped make it. Once a year on English Breakfast Day our Fellows vote on the competition submissions we have recieved from the previous eleven months. The competition runs every year, beginning on January the 1st, and ends with a vote on the winner on December the 2nd.

The winners of the competition will recieve a cash prize of £100 GBP, the title of English Breakfast World Champions, an award signed by our Chairman, and honorary Fellowships of our Society.

This competition is sponsored by our Chairman, on behalf of our Fellows, to showcase the best of English breakfast culture and celebrate a centuries old British culinary tradition.

The competition is open to anyone, anywhere, in recognition of the international acclaim of the English breakfast tradition.
