What to score this? Appearance: 0/10. Brown egg that perhaps included the chickens turd, weird curried battered mushroom, barely baked bread and sliced tomato briefly seared. 

 

Taste: Eggs- very greasy and yolk cooked solid. Battered mushroom--deep fried and battered, tasted old and greasy. Seared tomatoes were bearable but needed cooking more. "toast" was cooked in Antarctica and they gave me the magic combination of rock hard butter packets. The tea was banging though and could have got a cappicino for the same money.

 

2/10

 

Value: Best priced breakfast I've come across, though I don't really order vegetarian full English very often due to bean and hash browns twats ruining it for the rest of us. Considering a coffee alone could ha e cost the same I'll give it a 9/10 for value. 

 

Overall I feel it did better than Star cafe but there is no way it deserves more than 2/10 due to the horrendous cooking of the eggs. 

 

I've let myself down by not photographing my keys. 

 

Still finished it because I am a bellend and as hungry as hell. 

 

After:

none of them are cheap, but there is a place under the arches at Fenchurch Street that is bloody brilliant and cheap.  I'll c an't remember what it's called but I'll have a look.  There are a few decent places between Bishopsgate and Spitalfields/Petticoat Lane, but again I can't remember what they're called off the top of me head.

I found the one by Fenchurch Street.  There's a little road that goes under the railway at the back of America Square and I think the road is called Crescent.  (There are lots of weird road names around there).  The cafe is called De Vine, and it really is a belter.  It's under the railway, and you'd never find it unless you were looking for it, but it does the most fantastic cheap breakfast.

We need someone to pull us out of the breakfast quagmire here, things are going to shit.

 

The in-laws are coming over this morning and as we're currently kitchen-less I'm hoping a trip to a local cafe is on the cards. Stay tuned.
