Hi Michael,
Disney's BoardWalk Villas is my Disney Vacation Club home resort, and I positively love it there. It is located on Crescent Lake and in easy walking distance of a few other resorts, which expands the breakfast options that you can get to quickly.
Right on Disney's BoardWalk,
Kouzzina by Cat Cora offers American breakfast with a slight Mediterranean twist. If you are looking for a quicker, lighter breakfast on some days, you can pick up delicious breakfast goodies at the BoardWalk Bakery on Disney's BoardWalk or at the Belle Vue Lounge, which is located inside of Disney's BoardWalk Inn.
A quick walk around Crescent Lake will get you to the Swan and Dolphin resorts, which have a couple of other options. You could try
Fresh Mediterranean Market at the Dolphin, which offers both a buffet and a la carte options, again of American breakfast fare. Finally, consider
Garden Grove at the Swan hotel, which offers an American breakfast. Garden Grove offers a character breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays.
To be sure that you would be interested in the food at any of the breakfasts above, I suggest that you check out the menus. The unofficial website wdwinfo.com keeps a list of these. Visit that site, go to "Dining" and choose "menus." From there you can search for the restaurant for which you would like to see the menu.
I hope that this information is helpful for you, Michael! Have a great time at Disney's BoardWalk Villas, and please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
