We have them in Canada too. I used amenity=restaurant cuisine=breakfast 
for the one I go to (http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/80671829), and see 
I used amenity=cafe cuisine=breakfast for the nearby one I go to less 
frequently (http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1710998280). I'm not sure 
which I'd consider more appropriate. I wouldn't consider cuisine=british 
right. I don't like cuisine=greasy_spoon because it only has four uses.
