Breakfast at Tiffany's is no longer just a classic movie with Audrey Hepburn standing at Tiffany & Co's window eating her Danish and coffee out of a paper bag in that famous Givenchy gown with silk gloves. Fast forward 56 years, we can now have an actual breakfast while seated right inside Tiffany & Co at Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

Tiffany & Co recently opened The Blue Box Cafe on its newly renovated 4th floor at its flagship store at 727 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. The cafe that was decorated in the iconic shade of Tiffany blue serves American classics, and promises that "the menu will evolve through the seasons for a refined take on signature New York dishes reinvented to be uniquely Tiffany."

On the day of the cafe's opening, the queue was spectacular, with many commenting that their breakfast had turned into lunch instead, and it was heard that the queue started as early as 5 am.
We aren't expecting the food to be cheap from the luxury retailer. Breakfast cost USD$29 including a coffee or tea, with a croissant or fruit. You can then choose from a buttermilk waffle or a toast, truffle eggs or smoked salmon and a bagel.

Lunch will set you back by USD$39 with both starters and mains.
If you prefer afternoon tea sets, you can always go for their three-tiered afternoon tea sets that cost USD$49.
