Where to Go for an Early and Inexpensive Breakfast in Tarrytown on Weekends

Places to go for an early and inexpensive breakfast on weekends (and during the week of course) in downtown Tarrytown are shown below. Opening hours shown are apt to change as the weather warms up so checking ahead is suggested.

[Also see "Where to go for Breakfast in Irvington," Rivertowns Patch, June 6, 2013.]

As a general rule, street parking meters in downtown Tarrytown including the 15-minute (quick-stop for a quarter) meters do not require feeding with coins on Sundays or holidays.

Here are places to consider for breakfast:

Bella's Restaurant. Popular choices for a low-cost breakfast include eggs any style with ham, bacon or sausage ($6.95) or a three-egg omelette ($7.95 and up). Home fries or French fries and toast are included. Opens on Saturday at 6 a.m. and Sunday at 7 a.m. 5 South Broadway, Tarrytown, 914-332-0444. Also on the menu:
