London’s Best Hangover Breakfasts
If you’re feeling brave, their breakfast cocktail list is worth a look, too.

9. Caffeine Hit
As with hair of the dog, it’s actually not the best idea to drink a cup of coffee when you’re hungover. Not only does caffeine make your heart beat faster (and your body really doesn’t need to be under any more stress right now), but it also dehydrates you.
However, if you’re not lucky enough to be able to sleep your hangover away and you need to be up-and-at-them the following morning, coffee will provide just the nudge you need to get going. Stop by Climpson & Sons on Broadway Market for chilled vibes and some of the best coffee in London.

10. Mix It Up
The fry-up is quintessentially British; steak and eggs belongs to America; croissants and bols-de-chocolat, the French. So what about other countries – what are their go-to hangover breakfasts?
In Japan, miso is considered a cure-all for myriad ills, and any carb cravings are taken care of by steamed rice buns. Scandinavian breakfasts are a festival of protein, with cured fish, shrimps, hard-boiled egg and rye bread all making the cut.
Grab both from The Monocle on Chiltern Street, alongside more traditional fare such as Bircher muesli.
