Full English..........

I have been meaning to check out a local British Tea Room for ages.  I have followed them on Facebook for a while, and I saw they had a buy one get one free for their breakfasts before 12 noon through the end of February.

At the end of last week, we decided to give it a go.

I will say ahead of time a "fry-up/full English breakfast" is not a favourite meal of mine.  I can live without them.

This was called a standard breakfast and was I think around $17 or $18 each.  However we got one for free.  The coffee was I think around $3.25 or $3.50 a mug, and honestly it was the best part of the meal.  They made it with fresh ground beans, and I would go back to there just to have their coffee, it was that good!

Hubby had a hash brown with his meal, it's under the toast.  You could have fried bread or regular toast, we both chose the regular toast.

I chose the potato scone with mine instead of the hash brown.

My taste buds have changed over the years it seems, and I prefer a Canadian style breakfast.  They serve "back bacon," I prefer regular bacon done extra crispy.  The potato scone was as flat as a pancake, I am no expert on potato scones but I thought they were fluffy inside?

There was a slice of black pudding on our plates.  I ate around a third of it, as I found the consistency of it odd.  It was more cake like and quite dry and full of grains, but not oats?  There are generally globules of fat in black pudding?  However it's been donkey's years since I ate black pudding, and it's not something I would rush out to eat normally.

Loved the toast, sausage (and I am not usually a fan of breakfast sausage), eggs and beans.

There are plenty of other breakfast places around which do better meals and a lot cheaper.

BUT, these guys do afternoon tea, so we booked to go there next month for my birthday.  It's $42.50 each so I have high hopes.  However, nothing will compare to the Afternoon Tea we had in the Lake District, but I am looking forward to it.
