Whilst I agree, nobody should be paying 6 bucks for coffee and toast, you haven't felt the pain of getting breakfast in Sydney! Makes $6 look like a special!

- prawn 13y agoSaw so many full breakfast specials advertised in London for $5-7. In Australia, the big breakfast without a drink is often $18-22. A juice or milkshake would be $6-8. I'd dream of $4 toast!
- barrkel 13y agoYou might get something described as breakfast at a greasy spoon for £3, but I wouldn't recommend it. If you get coffee, it'll be a stewed hotplate at best. £3 should definitely buy you a semi-decent coffee though: http://www.londontoolkit.com/blog/eats/coffee-shop-chains-in-london/ http://www.londontoolkit.com/blog/eats/coffee-shop-chains-in...
- tsotha 13y agoYou can certainly get a full breakfast for $5-7 in San Francisco. You just can't go to the techie-hipster-yuppie places.
- pathy 13y agoAgreed! In Stockholm you can pay $6 for a cup of coffee alone. Ok maybe not cup of black coffee but $6 for a cup of cappuccino is no problem.
- vraid 13y agoEven a single espresso is in the range of $2.5 to $4.
- jakub_g 13y agoFrench Riviera, the price would be similar or slightly higher. No SF-like big tech industry, but lots of rich Frenchmen and Russians, and tourists from all the world, who pump the prices up.
- exDM69 13y agoYeah, while the rent in San Fransisco may be outrageous, and other prices may be expensive compared to the rest of the US it is still pretty cheap compared to some other parts of the world. Overall, the prices in the US for many commodities and services are ridiculously cheap compared to many European countries for example. And don't get me started on the gas prices... You can't get a coffee and a toast in a cafe for $6 in my home town (in Europe). You'll be paying $8 to $10 at least.
