The trouble with town is that places are opening and closing all the time and it's hard to keep up. I used to like Alabama's All American but that went a few years back.
If going a bit further afield and for those fans staying a bit out of the city centre around Gorton/Denton/Reddish, I have to recommend Les The Baker MCR at Gorton Mill House on Abbey Hey Lane. Only been in once a few months back but the breakfast is bang on and the portions are huge.
Going further out to Poshville, Suburban Green in Wilmslow does great food and decent breakfasts. Pricing is reasonable considering where it is as well. I will add that my view might not necessarily be 100% impartial as my mate owns it! But trust me, it's decent.
