Hope you can understand my English! 😅😅
First of all remember that in Spanish we use prepositions and articles almost all the time!
Answering your questions, we use the following structure: ES HORA DE + VERB
Eg:
Es hora DE comer.
Es hora DE irse a casa.
Es hora DE hacer la tarea.
Es hora DE leer.
Es hora DE hacer ejercicio.
Es hora DE desayunar/almorzar/merendar/cenar.
On the other hand:
in your original sentence («vamos comer») you need an "a" before the verb 'comer' (it's a grammar rule) so it would actually be: "Vamos A comer".
It's like 'going to' in English. You say "I'm going TO visit my friend" not "I'm going visit my friend" I mean you don't omit the "to".
However, in English you use "Let's..." to make suggestions so
"Let's eat!" would be «¡Comamos!».
To sum up, in your original sentences you need to add «de» because of grammar rules!
Hope this helps and you can understand my English! 😁🤗😅😅

¡Hola!
Todas tienen sentido, pero están incompletas.
Correctamente serían:
Es hora de almorzar/ Es hora de ir por el almuerzo.
(It's time to (go) get lunch.)
Es hora de comer.
(It's time to eat.)
Vamos a comer.
(Let's eat.)
Es hora de cenar/ Es hora de comer la cena.
(It's time to have/eat dinner.)
Es hora de desayunar / Es hora del desayuno.
(It's time for breakfast)
In Spanish we DON NOT say "Es hora PARA/TENER + noun (breakfast, lunch, dinner, sup, etc)".
Hope this helps! ¡Avísame si tienes alguna otra duda o consulta! 💪🏼🤗

Gracias! Follow-up question, por favor.
So, you don't say time "for" lunch, but time "to" almorzar (to eat lunch?)
If "comer" means "to eat" why "vamos a comer" but not "vamos comer"? What is the purpose of the "a"? Is it "to"?
Last question, please, similar to previous one. Why is it "es hora de comer" but not "es hora comer" if "comer" means "to eat"?
Or, "comer" does not literally mean "to" eat, but the physical act or action of eating?
Thanks again! (Gracias otra vez?)
