Distinctly average but doing the job and still a lot better than anything from the Kurtz stable of breakfasts shaming the nation.

 

5/10.

Just for clarity, that is fried bread and not toast perched on the top right of the plate ? Whatever it is, it's seems to be acting as some sort of bacon Shield.

It helped protect the bacon from being cooked.

WARNING. HEALTH HAZARD AHEAD. 

 

I was travelling through Euston on Friday. The pub in the station opened back up for the 1st time since lockdown this week. I was starving so went in to eat. I wasn't going to go for breakfast as it was 11.30 and I figured it wouldn't be great even if it was still on the menu. But it was actually the only food they were doing. So there were about 4 breakfast choices, none with any description of what was in it (app orders only and no menus). So I went for something like full English and this is the over priced monstrosity. Let this serve as a warning. Do not eat breakfast in the pub in Euston station. 1/10 and it was about 14 quid I think with coffee.

Not the worst I've seen but £14 is extortion for that.

PaulieD here with another breakfast review. 

Angie's Cafe at the bottom of Sydney Street (dormerly Parker's cafe).

 

Haven't been to the establishment before since my dad got barred from Parker's and there was a family wide boycott. Returned  today as it's under new management. 

 

Large breakfast £7

2 bacon - well cooked, crispy skin

2 sausage - good quality well cooked

1 black pudding slice, again well cooked, crispy outside

1 Ulster fry slice - bit charred for me 

1 liver sausage slice - superb addition often missed in a full breakfast. 

1 fried egg - pretty good, no crispy bottom

Hash brown - plate filler

Mushrooms - fried in butter

Beans - of course, Heinz

Tomatoes - tinned which, for me, loses points. 

Not pictured 2 white toast, spread not butter and a cup of tea in a sensible white mug. 

 

Probably the best breakfast posted on here in a good few weeks. Tomatoes aside I smashed the lot. Meat items were cooked fresh, none of this kept warm nonsense and piping hot on delivery. 

 

Slight loss of points for hash brown not being crisp enough and tinned tomatoes instead of a fried tomato half. 

 

7.2/10 for me.

I love liver sausage, it’s great in butties with Branston pickle, but I can’t think why anyone would serve it as a component of a fry-up.

The sausages appear to be grinning inanely. I hate breakfast ingredients to look happy, puts me right off the dour mood I work hard to cultivate. 
 

It’s decent, better than the one I had. I’m no fan of tinned tomatoes but that’s just me. You’re right about the hash brown, needs a few more minutes cooking time. Probably could have done with a few more beans as well. It’s almost like they’re apologising for being there which is all kinds of wrong.

Did they put the bacon under the other bits of food in the hope that the heat from them would cook the bacon a bit? 
 

Stop eating breakfast in a supermarket. You’re better than that. Fred West wouldn’t even do it. Even after a night of digging holes and he couldn’t find anywhere else open. Just stop it.

When was it first made? 

Boudicca first rustled one up for the troops in preparation for a dust up with the Romans. She forgot the hash browns, her army took one hell of a pasting. Since then hash browns have been a staple ingredient with the end result being that Britain has never again been conquered.

A fish finger, lettuce and some kind of small animal sick cannot be anywhere near something labelled ‘best breakfast’.

Pretentious shit like that is all too common nowadays. Cunts reinventing the wheel and charging astronomical prices for it. Burp and you’d be hungry again.

That’s not lettuce, it’s something much more sinister; it’s avocado on toast. 

Disgraceful. The only place where an avocado can be tolerated is as a starter at a 1970’s dinner party, just prior to picking out car keys from a hat to establish who you’ll be swapping partners with for ‘desert’.

Yorkie's plate - the bacon is so embarrassed it is covering up.

 

Baz's effort - streaky bacon and vegetable spread - kinell.

 

PD's contribution - has all the right parts but is put together like Stevie Wonder assembled a Mr Potato Head.

 

I don't think I would eat any of those, much less pay to eat any of those.
