Maybe it ought to come with a side of statins and a defibrillator. Fat and cholesterol content aside, is there anything that will take you back to Ireland (in your head and your stomach) more than a full Irish breakfast?

To review, a full Irish breakfast generally includes the following: numerous meats and things purporting to be meats, including bangers (sausage), rashers (a hammy kind of Irish bacon), and black and white puddings (also known as blood sausages, yum), together with a couple of eggs, grilled tomato and mushroom, beans and a slice of bread.

If you’re still hungry after all that, you’re a better man than I am, Gunga Diner.

Maybe you thought that you could only get that kind of breakfast in Ireland. Well, you don’t have to wait for your next trip. There are numerous places in the Philadelphia area where you can get an Irish breakfast, often at any time of the day.

We’ve assembled a sampling of those places. If you know of any other places that serve the full fry-up, let us know:
