The perfect morning in Rockford consists of a cup of coffee, listening to birds chirp outside, and a delicious hearty breakfast.  Change my mind.

I've dabbled in the breakfast scene in Rockford far too many times.  My go-to places have always been Johnny Pamcakes and Jerry's Café, but I'm always down to expand my horizons... or my sunrises.  Bad joke, I know.

Sweet or savory, don't worry about finding the perfect place to dine at.  Rockford is all about breakfast and has endless options for you and your entire family.
