"Breakfast at Sweethearts" was a 1979 single from Australian rock band Cold Chisel. Written by keyboardist Don Walker, it was released as a single in 1978, peaking at number 63 on the Australian charts. It appeared as a track on the 1979 album of the same name.[1]

Details

"Sweethearts" was a cafè in the middle of Kings Cross, Sydney, Australia in the 1970s and 1980s, where author Don Walker would frequently eat. He said, "The original Sweethearts Cafe is where McDonald's is now. That got demolished and Sweethearts moved over the road to where Krave Espresso Bar is now. That lasted for quite a few years, until the late 1980s, early '90s."[2]
