Soup breakfast

[Eleanor ace]

Yesterday morning I walked past a cafe and there was a board outside listing some of the breakfast options. There was one which just said "soup breakfast"- I've never heard of soup breakfast. There was a waitress outside wiping a table and I asked her what a soup breakfast was and she looked at me like I was a bit weird and said "just your usual soup breakfast" . I asked if it was just soup, at breakfast time and she said "no it's the full soup breakfast".
Is this a thing?? What in the heck is a soup breakfast?!

i dont know where you are but im in south east UK. its not a common thing here but my OH quite often has soup for breakfast. he said it fills him up more than cereal/toast etc & can last from 8am (when he eats/drinks it) until 4pm.. he will then have a slice of toast when he gets in from work & dinner at 6.30-7pm..
anyway ive rambled on

This has made me laugh so much
I have no idea what a soup breakfast is.. I'd have had to go in and try it

Im in the New Forest and we often have tomato soup for breakfast and at cafe a soup breakfast will be tomato.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who hadn't heard of it before! If it was just soup for breakfast I could understand that, but it's the "full soup breakfast" thing which had e so intrigued- like what wondrous accompaniments does it come with?! I think I'm going to phone the cafe and ask because I'm so intrigued- better not just be a bread roll or I will be gutted

Please let us know - I am beyond intrigued! Have never heard soup and breakfast in the same sentence before!

 

[Midnight_Fairy]

Its tomato here but no idea why she found it odd you asked?

Update .
I phoned the cafe and asked what the soup breakfast was and the lady told me "today's soup breakfast is tomato soup (you were right Midnight Fairy!) with a ham and cheese croissant"
Well I never!!

Soup would fill you up for ages but not sure I would fancy it early in the morning. Maybe 10.30/11am.

Never heard of it either I'd of been the one looking at her weird not the other way around. Not sure I'd fancy soup for breakfast though!
