Breakfast the Way It Was Meant to Be
We open at 8:00 AM every day, and our breakfast menu runs until 11:30 AM. Whether you're after a full Japanese set or a light continental start, we've thought of every kind of morning appetite. Come as you are, stay as long as you like.
What We're Serving This Morning
Japanese Breakfast Set
The classic start to a Kyoto morning: steamed rice, grilled salmon, house miso soup, soft-boiled tamagoyaki egg, pickled seasonal vegetables, and green tea. Nourishing, balanced, and truly satisfying.
Continental Breakfast Set
Selection of artisan breads and pastries, butter, seasonal jams, a small cheese plate, fresh fruit cup, and your choice of hot or cold drink. Light yet elegant — ideal for a relaxed morning start.
Pancake Morning
Our house-made Japanese-style pancakes are thick, cloud-soft, and golden. Served in a stack of three with maple syrup, seasonal berry compote, and a generous swirl of whipped cream.
Scrambled Egg Plate
Softly scrambled free-range eggs with fresh herbs, served alongside avocado, cherry tomatoes, and thick toast. Simple, fresh, and done properly.
Acai Smoothie Bowl
Thick blended acai with banana and almond milk, topped with house granola, fresh kiwi, mango, chia seeds, and a honey drizzle. A colorful, energizing way to begin the day.
Kids Morning Plate
Mini pancakes with fruit, a small serving of yogurt, and a glass of warm milk or juice. Portioned for little appetites and presented to bring a smile.
Tips for a Perfect Family Breakfast
Over the years, our regulars have shared what makes their mornings at Roy's so special. We're passing those ideas along.
- 1Arrive a little early on weekday mornings (8:00–9:00 AM) for the calmest, most relaxed atmosphere. Weekends fill up beautifully — consider calling ahead if you're a group of four or more.
- 2Our miso soup is made fresh every morning from house-made dashi. Pair it with the Japanese Breakfast Set for a genuinely grounding start to the day — especially in cooler months.
- 3Little ones can often share a plate from the adult menu if their appetite is small. Just let your server know and we'll bring an extra side plate with no fuss at all.
- 4The pancake morning pairs wonderfully with a Hojicha Latte for the adults and a warm milk for the kids — it's become a ritual for many of our families.
- 5If you have dietary requirements — gluten intolerance, dairy-free preferences, or any allergies — please let us know when ordering. Our kitchen team is happy to adapt where possible.
About Our Ingredients
We source our eggs from a family farm in Shiga Prefecture, our bread from a small-batch Kyoto bakery, and our seasonal fruits from regional markets. We believe a good breakfast starts long before it reaches the table — it begins with knowing and trusting where your food comes from.
Weekend Brunch at Roy's
Saturday and Sunday mornings take on a different energy here. The weekend brunch menu runs from 8:00 AM until 2:00 PM, blending breakfast and lunch favorites into one leisurely spread. Pull up a chair, order a pot of tea, and let the morning unfold slowly.
Weekend specials include our Smoked Salmon Bagel with cream cheese and capers, a Shakshuka inspired by our chef's travels, and the ever-popular Waffle Station — where kids can watch their waffle being pressed and add their own toppings.
For large groups or family birthday brunches, we recommend reserving a table in advance. Our corner booths seat up to 8 guests and can be prepared with a special arrangement upon request.
