Finding the hangout spots is just as important as being familiar with the dormitories and classrooms while getting settled on a new campus, especially if you want to squeeze in those extra classes over a late-night breakfast or a quiet cup of coffee. Extra Crispy contacted students to develop a map of some of the best breakfast establishments close to 40 college campuses during this time of year when students are starting new semesters around the nation. We're not referring to the hip new eatery in town; rather, we're referring to the long-standing, knowledgeable greasy spoon. With gratitude to the breakfast-savvy students who provided feedback, here are 40 essential college breakfast locations for both new and returning students. Eat up!

1: Hofstra University

A pillar of the neighbourhood, The Lone Wolf delivers delectable fare to vegans and omnivores alike. The pancakes are a popular item, so it's not surprising that The Lone Wolf frequently runs out of them given the wide variety of flavours and kinds available. Additionally, the eatery offers a variety of Southwest dishes, including breakfast burritos.

2: Amherst College

Col Del's (as it is commonly called) ability to deliver seems to be its main selling point for pupils. And we are all aware of how crucial delivery was to us as college students. With over two decades of experience, Col Del is well-known for its reasonably priced egg sandwiches and extremely greasy potatoes. Col Del, the original and a Hofstra favourite, is still on the menucuisine today along with a catering service and a restaurant.

3: University of Kentucky

You may visit Tolly Ho whenever you like because it is a 24-hour business. After moving a few years ago, Tolly Ho is no longer only a short stroll from the school, but it has a passionate student following.The cost of Kentucky Breakfast is affordable for a student's budget and it is available day and night. Seven dollars for a huge omelette? Please register us.

4: Oberlin College

Black River is a requirement if there is nothing else to do in this college town. Since this is Oberlin, students come for the pancakes, eggs, laid-back environment, and sustainable food. Of course there is also coffee. There is a tonne of coffee. The best, according to Oberlin students.

5: Harvard University

With so many options in Cambridge, the general agreement was fragile. But Darwin has prevailed, at least this time. On weekends, breakfast is served until 3 p.m., making this a terrific brunch place, as are superb coffee, delectable baked goods, and tasty sandwiches. Sure, it's packed on weekends, but so are the greatest brunch restaurants.

6: Trinity College

In the Raether Library, Peter B's offers pastries and cappuccino. The renowned First and Last bakery in Hartford is where the pastries come from. Although Peter B's, a Trinity student-run establishment, is hidden away, the coffee they offer is absolutely exceptional.
