"Breakfast
Brunch (if a late breakfast)
Lunch
Tea (tea and cake)
Supper
Dinner for me is out to a restaurant. "
Exactly this is my choice also. |

Are the variances mostly geographical?
For me it is:
Breakfast
Lunch or Dinner
Tea
At school I always had a hot meal at "lunchtime" or "dinnertime" where the terms were interchangeable. When I got home "tea" was mostly a sandwich.
Now I have a sandwich at lunchtime and a cooked meal in the evening. I don't tend to use the term "dinner" its more often "lunch". "Tea" is always the evening meal cooked or otherwise. |

Breakfast up until mid-morning.
Brunch thereafter unless it's just tea and a biscuit - that's morning tea.
Lunch anywhere between 12:30pm and 2.
Afternoon tea around 3-4pm.
Supper anywhere between 7 and 9pm. It's the main meal of the day.
Dinner is either in a restaurant, or is a specially prepared and more ornate meal on a Sunday or a special occasion. (I might, interchangably, refer to supper as dinner - hey I'm free and easy).
Tea is basically any time tea (the drink) is the main focus, maybe with biscuits; in its extreme form with scones and small sandwiches. It's not a meal where I come from. That's not a judgement, just how it is. |
