For a taste of rural England right in the middle of the Sonoran Desert, check out T.C. Eggington's Brunchery, one of the East Valley's most popular breakfast and lunch destinations. T.C.'s celebrates the chicken and egg with a steady stream of stuffed-to-order omelets, specialty sandwiches and a garden of greens. They also toss in a quirky helping of British humor. Only at T.C.'s, for example, can you find 10-inch ''girdle'' cakes, named with a play on the Old English meaning of the word ''girdle'' as a belt to go around the (pancake-broadened) waist. These pancakes, by the way, are made from scratch with fresh ingredients such as buttermilk and sour cream, and come accompanied by whipped honey-butter and warm syrup.

Also paying tribute to the Brits are the fresh-baked English-style muffins and orchard-fresh Shoogles (that's smoothies to us Yanks). Can't-miss dishes on the breakfast menu include the Eggington Omelette (chicken, mushroom, broccoli and cream cheese with a rich hollandaise), thick-sliced English toast with a French flair and the refreshing vegetable gardina frittata. For lunch, try out the baked potato soup, Classic Dickens Salad (veggies with sauteed chicken in a honey-mustard-bacon sauce) or the focaccia turkey-pepper melt. Just like the rural English countryside, the setting features clean, open and airy spaces, crisp garden colors and pictures of cows and chickens.

  • Great Value!

    The portions are huge but you can order reduced sizes if you have a smaller appetite. I love their french toast or greek fetash omelette for breakfast and they have great salads and homemade soups for lunch. Even better they have lattes and great smoothies so I don't have to stop at Starbucks !

    Review rating : 5out of 5   misscutie765 - 06/05/2008

    I have been eating at TC Eggingtons every sunday for 20 years. My parents and grandparents have been going there 10 years before I was born. The service is excellent, I actually was babysat by one of the waitresses named Jody years ago. The food is to die for, anytime I eat breakfast out that is not at TC Eggingtons I regret it. This is the friendliest, most delicious place and I cannot imagine my Sunday's without it.

    Our family has been going to Eggington's for breakfast for years, always a good experience, quality of food is very dependable. Love the farmhouse atmosphere. Love the attention paid to everything from waitresses, waiters, to the owner being there, and the restaurant cleanliness and the breakfast and lunch menu choices.

    Review rating : 5out of 5   Taylorrl29 - 05/23/2008

    Been eating there for 20 years one or more times a week. Great pan -cakes,unbelieveable french troast then you have choice of egg dishes
    with potatoes and fresh fruit. You can have plain eggs or different omelette. Never leave feeling empty.Plus the great food the servers are always so pleasant and friendly. It really gets my day started on a positive nore.

  • Very Tasty, Fresh Breakfast & Lunch

    Review rating : 5out of 5   valerieis50 - 05/22/2008

    I can't believe someone would say the portions at TC aren't big enough. We have leftovers every time we go there. I love their fresh salad of the day that they serve with really good sandwiches - rather than the traditional greasy fries side. Their selection for breakfast and lunch is really great too. Every time I've been there I've had something different. One time I was there for a breakfast meeting with a client and the meeting went a little longer - and we were so comfortable, we ended up staying for lunch. They are very accommodating and service oriented. Could be because they are family owned and have been in business for at least 20 years!

  • Legacy Eatery

    Review rating : 5out of 5   flrich2 - 05/20/2008

    Have been going here since it opened — a great place for meetings, long coffees or early lunches. Get there ahead of the crowd or plan on a wait during lunch peaks. Creative menu, nice people and healthy food. Owners are nice, servers are like family.
