Cheap Breakfast in Las Vegas – (Under $20) – Strip & Downtown

Hunting down food deals in Las Vegas is one of my favorite ways to preserve my bankroll, and that starts with breakfast.

To aid value seekers like myself, I figured that creating and maintaining a breakdown of cheap breakfast options in Las Vegas would be helpful.

To qualify for inclusion, a restaurant must offer meals for $20 or less.

Of course, I’ll link out to each menu so that you can double-check pricing and options before making the trip.

Cheap Breakfast On The Strip

Pyramid Cafe at Luxor: Home to numerous inexpensive options, Pyramid Cafe serves a collection of eggs, waffles, pancakes, and French toast. While only a few items are sub-$15, most are $20 or less.

I recently stopped into Pyramid Cafe for lunch (and enjoyed it), but saw plenty of hearty breakfast plates walking past me that looked delicious. On my “breakfast to-do list” is the pyramid pancake stack topped with berries and bananas.

Backstage Deli at Luxor: A quick option, Backstage Deli serves a limited all-day breakfast menu that includes breakfast sandwiches, a classic breakfast, and a chicken & waffle sandwich for under $20.

America at New York New York: A bastion of deals, nearly everything on America’s breakfast menu is $15 or less. Highlights include omelets, pancakes, French toast, waffles, chicken & waffles, a breakfast burrito, and various egg dishes.

I recently stopped in and ordered the NY Steak and Eggs in addition to French Toast (pictured below) – It was a lot. It was a rock-solid meal for the price.

Aria Patisserie: As one of the more upscale resorts on the Strip, deals at Aria can be tough to find. The Patisserie, however, serves several inexpensive breakfast items, including a breakfast sandwich, breakfast burrito, ham & swiss croissant, and omelets.

Uniquely, Aria’s Patisserie also serves a number of both sweet and savory crepes.

Egghead at Aria: Found within Aria’s Proper Eats Food Hall, Egghead serves a selection of breakfast sandwiches for around $10.

Easy Donuts at Aria: Just outside the Proper Eats Food Hall, Easy Donuts serves a selection of donuts, croissants, and breakfast sandwiches at a price point that won’t break the bank.

While the store serves breakfast favorites during the day, it morphs into a speakeasy by night, often featuring life music.,

Bellagio Patisserie: Bellagio’s patisserie ranks as one of the most affordable options in a resort that caters to a higher-end clientele. Breakfast items like pastries, croissants, and crepes are all available.

Cafe Hollywood at Planet Hollywood: Cafe Hollywood is located just off PH’s casino floor and serves a wide assortment of breakfast fare at a sub-$20 price point, including eggs, omelets, waffles, French toast, pancakes, and scrambles.

Notably, a few of those breakfast meals are served around the clock as part of their all-day breakfast menu.

Flights at Planet Hollywood: Essentially every breakfast item on Flights’ brunch menu lands under $20, including chicken & waffles, French toast, a classic breakfast, and more.

Their NY steak & eggs (below), which I recently enjoyed, is priced under $20, and I even stopped back later to watch Sunday Night Football over a flight of mules.

La Salsa Cantina at Planet Hollywood: Located in the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood, La Salsa Cantina serves dishes with a Mexican twist, many priced at $15 or less.

Among the deepest deals is their $9.99 breakfast ($6.99 on weekdays) that includes 2 eggs, choice of meat, southwest potatoes, and tortillas.

Adding to the value proposition, guests can add a bloody mary, mimosa, or several other “breakfast drinks” for just $5.95.

Blondies in the Miracle Mile Shops: Home to one of our favorite all-you-can-drink deals in Las Vegas, Blondies also offers a value-packed breakfast menu with most items priced at or below $15. Unique menu items include a big burrito, breakfast quesadilla, and breakfast tacos.

Although portions are tiny, they also serve a weekday $5.99 Breakfast deal, which isn’t on the menu, but rather advertised on a sign in front of the restaurant.

Flavortown at Horseshoe: Guy Fieri’s newest restaurant on the Strip offers a slim, yet relatively cheap, breakfast menu daily that includes items like an All-American breakfast, a big queso-rito (burrito), and biscuits and gravy, among others.

Most items land near or below $20.

They also serve a daily AYCE Brunch special for $19.99. Hopefully it sticks around for a while!

Eggslut at Cosmopolitan: A popular grab & go breakfast destination at Cosmo, sandwiches start at around $10. Not bad for an upscale resort!

Brioche by Guy Savoy at Paris & Caesars Palace: A number of items, including a ham-and-cheese croissant, quiche, and coffee-and-pastry breakfasts, are priced at less than $15.

Pronto by Giada at Caesars Palace: Pronto serves an assortment of breakfast sandwiches, parfaits, and lighter fare (fruit, oatmeal, etc.) that range from $10 to $15.

Cafe Belle Madeleine at Paris: A selection of breakfast sandwiches at Cafe Belle can be yours at a sub $15 price point.

Hash House a Go Go at LINQ: Items available for around $20 include a classic buttermilk flapjack, “Twisted Flapjacks”, waffles, and their 2-egg breakfast.

HHAGG has become a “go-to” of mine, as they have locations both on the Strip and Downtown – Check out the recent meal my dad, brother, and I enjoyed.

Maxie’s at LINQ: Found near the High Roller on the LINQ Promenade, Maxie’s has a diner vibe and offers every breakfast meal for under $20, including their signature Fruity Pebble or Cocoa Pebbles French toast.

Virgil’s BBQ at LINQ: Also along the Promenade, Virgil’s serves a handful of sub-$20 brunch items like fried chicken & waffles, banana fosters-stuffed French toast, and chocolate chip pancakes.

Favorite Bistro at LINQ: One final option on the Promenade, nearly every breakfast on Favorite Bistro’s menu lands at or below $20.

Unique options include eggs Benedict, their steak & eggs special, a breakfast burrito, and banana Nutella waffles.

Nook Express at The LINQ: The grab & go location serves a selection of breakfast sandwiches for around $11 and bagels with cream cheese for under $10.

Nook Express at Flamingo: Like the location at Linq, Flamingo’s Nook Express specializes in a number of breakfast sandwiches, a yogurt parfait, and even a fresh fruit bowl.

Grand Lux Cafe at Venetian & Palazzo: With locations at both resorts, Grand Lux has become an affordable go-to for me, especially for their happy hour.

They also serve a large selection of breakfast items for around $20, but many are cheaper.

Big Top Eats at Circus Circus: Open 24 hours, Westside Deli serves breakfast items around the clock, which include pancakes, scrambled eggs, and a breakfast sandwich.

It kind of looks like a High School football game concession stand, but it’s solid.

Denny’s: A known quantity for most, Denny’s has locations both at Casino Royale and just north of the MGM Grand in the Showcase Mall.

Aztec Inn Casino: Located across the street from STRAT on the north end of the Strip, Aztec Inn serves a $5 breakfast which includes 2 eggs, toast, and bacon.

STRAT Cafe: A few steps to the north, STRAT recently unveiled an AYCE breakfast deal for $26.99, and it also offers a menu stocked with $20 meals.

Cheap Breakfast on Fremont Street

Binion’s Cafe: Almost everything on the Binion’s Cafe breakfast menu qualifies as cheap, with the vast majority costing under $20. Notable options include ham steak and eggs, pancakes, omelets, and Binion’s basic breakfast which is made up of 2 eggs, hash browns, and toast.

This is my recent $10.99 stack of pancakes.

Binion’s Deli: Two breakfast items at the deli cost $17. The first is ham steak & eggs, and the other is the Gambler Token, which consists of two eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, and toast for $17.

Freedom Beat at Downtown Grand: Following a brief hiatus, Freedom Beat is again open for brunch, and items like an American breakfast, grand omelet, and an American feast cost $20 or less.

Hash House a Go Go at Plaza: Like their Strip location, HHAGG’s Fremont Street location serves several inexpensive breakfast items, which include a massive flapjack, “Twisted Flapjack”, waffles, and a 2-egg breakfast.

Pinkbox Doughnuts at Plaza: If grab & go is more your style, stop into Pinkbox to survey their jaw-dropping selection of doughnuts that range in price from about $2 – $6.

Of course, they serve coffee as well.

I recently visited – Take a look at the doughnuts inside Pinkbox!

CJ at Golden Nugget: Several items hover around the $20 mark on CJ’s menu, including French toast, a breakfast burrito, a breakfast sandwich, and several omelets.

The Grille at Golden Nugget: Ranking as one of the cheapest breakfast options downtown, The Grille serves a breakfast sandwich, burrito, and more, with nearly everything landing at under $20.

Magnolia’s Veranda at 4 Queens: When I’m in downtown Las Vegas, Magnolia’s Veranda is my go-to. While I typically opt for the NY Steak and Eggs, which costs $22, there are plenty of sub-$20 meals available.

Aloha Specialties at The Cal: Located steps away from Fremont Street, Aloha Specialties serves a small breakfast menu that includes unique and cheap items. Try their Loco Moco, a hamburger patty over rice with 2 eggs over easy, topped off with gravy.

Market Street Cafe at The Cal: Also at California, nearly everything on Market Street’s breakfast menu lands at or below $20. Breakfast items include island-style eggs, eggs benedict, steak & eggs, and biscuits and gravy among others.

Denny’s in Neonopolis: Like the locations on the Strip, Denny’s can be found in the Neonopolis complex on Fremont Street. I know, it’s not overly exciting – Just know it’s an option.

Garden Court Buffet at Main Street Station: The only buffet currently open downtown, Garden Court is a rock-solid value option. While the buffet currently costs a hair over $20 for brunch, it’s a great deal for those looking for a strong calorie-to-dollar ratio.

See my review of the Garden Court buffet, here.

Although restaurants with expensive menus and celebrity chef names on the marquee attract all the buzz, there are an impressive number of spots to grab a cheap breakfast in Vegas.

Whether you’re looking for a quick grab-and-go option or a budget-friendly sit-down restaurant, there’s sure to be something that suits you.
