It looked ok ... but can you remember Little Chef Service Stations...their Olympic Breakfast was 10/10 and included sliced deep fried potato scallops. The best service station I've been to recently is the one at Tebay its independent and all home cooked food .

Honestly I prefer a tinned tomato rather than a fried one with a fry up. That brekky looks pretty good to me. I’m one of those who doesn’t do black pudding. Bit of a rip off charging extra for toast though… that’s crazy!

Happy Sunday from Los Angeles! 🙋‍♀️ You need to come to the Southern states and head to a BucEees! Look up the vids about BucEees!

Your motorway services is microscopic compared to any BucEes location!

Motorway services always add that bit extra price-wise. It was odd to have 3 sausages and only 1 egg instead of 2 sausages and 2 eggs. These places should let you change items if you don't like them. Good vlog to show what you get for your money. 👍

Always thought that plum tomatoes was the breakfast item when offered beans or tomatoes. But I'm talking about 30 years ago, when hash brown was not a thing on the breakfast plate. So glad that black pudding was on the Ultimate version of their breakfast. What surprised me most was the price, much cheaper than I thought. Not that i ever eat in Service Stations as they have a captive audience and can set prices however they like. For example the McDs and Greggs prices are way higher than the High Street stores.

Hello my friend, lovely to see you as always. Love your channel, this was an excellent review with great filming! For a Motorway Services this breakfast was very good, nice to see black pudding with this meal, although with 2 eggs & fresh tomato would made this even better. The price you paid was about right considering, as Motorway Services have always been expensive!! Thank you for sharing,take care 💜 XX

Fantastic hell no at tenner that's a rip off bit pricey. And toast of breads aren't included WTF is that?? 🤦🏻 I know loads of pubs and restaurants that gives you bigger portions for less money and has better quality and toasts and black pudding, 3 hash browns, 2 bacon rashes, 2 sausages, mushrooms. And included with half cooked tomato. That's is just a pure scam!

To be fair whenever I have a Full English from a motorway services - it’s usually spot on. Price is the off putting thing - especially when most services have a McDonald’s or Greggs type place where you can grab a much cheaper breakfast. But sometimes - when you still have a fair few miles to go or a full day in work - you just want a sit down breakfast 😋

@AllanNeaves-qn3zr 3 ай бұрын

Act 1.at first glance your breakfast looked fine.A good crisp, clean, tidy plate of food. Gonna start with the toast.Nice colour & enough butter. Fried egg should be basted, the thin white shows an old egg. I don't mind tinned tomatoes Good looking bacon. Standard catering sausages. Mushrooms & baked beans OK Black Pudding, not one of my favourites £14.77 well over the top😢 If you're passing fine 😊Allan&Family

Someone commented Little Chef and Tebay Services. On trips down to West Country, often stop at Tebay sister farm shop services on M5, Gloucester. Have stopped Tebay once in past. Two best by far services in Country IMO. Beef pie and chips at the Glos services outstanding as is the farm shop area produce. As for Little Chef sad we lost those outlets as mentioned their all round service was 10/10. Loved their sausage rings which were partially split around the ring. As for your breakfast EIE, looked quite appetising and for services prices although little expensive, seems the going rate Nationwide.

Motorway services used to be expensive. That has changed to a degree with fast food outlets like KFC and McDonald's. They appear to charge the same as their regular restaurants. £14.77 was steep for what you recived.
