If you're eating in restaurants, I think the most
typical breakfast is 2 eggs, meat, potatoes and bread.
The meats are usually American style bacon strips,
ham, or little sausages(which are different from
English sausages.)  The bread could be pancakes,
toasted wheat, white, rye, or sourdough bread, baking
powder biscuit, or English muffin.  A drink may or may
not be included in the offering.  Drinks would be
coffee, tea, juice or milk.

However, there are many other offerings on a menu
besides the basic breakfast.  Most places offer
waffles, french toast, cereal (hot or cold), omelets,
or other creations of the chef.

On the other hand....if you go to a Fast Food place,
you will get abreviated versions of restaurant meals,
with a very common one being an English muffin with
ham, egg and cheese in the middle of it.

Being an American, eating in England was an adventure.
 You will probably have an adventure coming here and
adjusting to our food offerings.  You might need some
terminology explained, but you should be able to find
something edible even if it is different.

Have a great trip.  Sorry I'm too far away from
Florida to know what is offered there.
