[QUOTE="Dave, post: 364290, member: 441"] My reaction to the price of breakfast on the Le Puy route was initially in line with the dissatisfaction noted above. It's worth noting, though, that a cup of coffee commonly costs 2 euros in a cafe along this route, and a café au lait will often run you 2.5 euros. If you're lucky enough to hit a bakery in the morning, you can get some delicious pastries or breads at a very affordable price. If not, though, your options for food can be very limited. If there's an accessible kitchen and you're able to find an open grocery, then sure, that's definitely the most budget-friendly option. But on the Le Puy route in particular, your choices are often few. Given that I enjoy multiple cups of coffee in the morning, it was immediately clear that 5 euros is actually a budget saver when kitchens are not available. What I was pleased to discover in many cases was a wide variety of homemade jams, often produced with locally grown fruits. We often received home-made yogurt as well. Admittedly, some breakfasts were more spartan than others, but some were outstanding. I fondly recall the municipal albergue in St. Come d'Olt (for both great dinner and breakfast), Accueil St. Pierre in Marcilhac for its freshly baked croissants, and the lavish spread at Gite Ultreia in Moissac.
