Full English breakfast at the CycleChat Cafe

[C R]

I was sent this by a cycling friend

I asked him "what's that thing on the right?"

Turns out it's a Yorkshire pudding with bacon cooked into it.

Now to me that sounds delicious and I've always been kinda flexible on what constitutes a "Full English". But what does the CC massive say?

It looks great, but somewhat spoiled by the presence of veg on the plate, that tilts the healthy scales the wrong way

Looks tasty, but more of a brunch item rather then brekkie.

Some of my friends do not eat pork and they talk about having a Full English but without the sausage and bacon. To me, that's not a Full English, that's a Partial English.

What do you say?

In this transgender times, if they identify it as a full English, then it must be accepted as a full English - its their right of self determination.

When we visit Edinburgh to see daughter at Uni,we have been using Premier Inn's they do a superb continental brekkie,but our favourite and most stayted at is The Braids Hill Hotel,it's all the lot,scrambled egg beans AND HAGGIS i love it followed by the cold foods,it's a great brekkie.

I used to stop at the Braids Hill whenever I worked up that way, it's been a few years now though, always a lovely breakfast

Looks like a Toby Carvery breakfast - the Yorkshire pudding also has roasted onion aas well as the bacon. They also do something described as "Breakfast Gravy" to go with it!

I identify with Prime Minister but upon my arrival at 10 Downing Street, I was not allowed to go in. Shurgs.

You should have self identified AS the PM not self identifying WITH the PM

Yes, apparently it's the Leigh Arms, Adlington in Cheshire which is a Toby Carvery

Cycled past it loads of times, I'm tempted to pop in

When I was working in Peterhead , I stopped at Buchan Braes hotel ( the old officers mess of RAF Buchan at Boddam ) they had haggis on the breakfast menu . I was so happy .

Had a large full English this morning at a cafe I've not been to before...

2x sausages, 2x bacon, tinned chopped tomatoes, mushrooms, a single fried egg and one slice of toast.

And that was it. No beans, no hash browns, no black pudding. Yet they had the cheek to call it ''large'?

We won't be going there again.

Spoons cannot open their new branch soon enough.

If there are two sausages and two rashers, there should be two eggs, and two slices of toast, that's common sense. Beans should be standard on any size of brekkie and black pudding an optional extra.

God, I sound like Alan Partridge.

Anywhere near the City Centre?

No, it was out in the 'burbs.

If I'd been in the city centre I'd have gone to one of the 'spoons, or the Black Prince.

Son #1 helps at a volunteers cafe in Gamesley near Glossop. So I have the pleasure of taking him every Friday

So every Friday I have their Full English. It's very similar...1 sausage, 3 bacon, 1 egg, beans, mushrooms, tinned toms, 1 round of toast.

I will forgive them as it comes at the knockout price of £2.90

That's fair enough at that price, the one I got was knocking on the door of a fiver - plus extra for the coffee!
