£29 & 7 BEANS, a FULL ENGLISH Breakfast at The Greens!

[@paulabevan]

I loved on the buses as well that was great Comedy that’s the days when we could laugh

[@mcfluffchucker]

Breakfast gets a 5 out of ten for me - 1 point for beans in a bloody kids tea cup . -1 point for the grass cuttings in the tomato -1 point for the service charge ( ridiculous) -1 point for having the cheek to call that a big breakfast ( in Scotland that's a starter) -1 for the cost of it Scotland has the best breakfasts closely followed by Nottingham

[@barrieainge4937]

I would have liked fried bread instead of hash browns - why don't you see fried bread anymore in full English? Good review.

[@ianreid]

I ran a staff canteen in a suasge factory for 9 years. Geo Adams. He made quality straight sausages for M&S, Lincolnshire suasge and cheaper brands. Not all the best ones were bent. As some of the straight ones were quality.

[@Calcouk]

just depends on the casing ... benders tend to be natural (hog and sheep) whereas collagen are generally straight. Natural are more hassle to prep.

[@nelliedownsouth2316]

Christ for that price you'd expect nothing less than perfection..

[@robanderson1155]

For that price id expect fried bread at least

[@Obullshtter]

It's that price so the type of person you see walking around with a beard, laptop bag and a latte can have breakfast in an adult environment without childish beastly builders sitting at the next table.

I don't write comments often, but you're really enjoyable to watch Lee. You and Darren (plus your other mates) really put a smile on my face. Your content is enjoyable, fun, and very binge-able. Thanks for brightening our days :)

[@Eitner100]

I was in London in a hotel at Elephant and Castle. The lady wanting me to absorb an English Breakfast was surprised I did not want that. Beans, tomatoes, sausages, black pudding and the works. That does not work for me at all. I love a Deutsches Reichhaltiges Frühstück. 10 sorts of bread, cheese, yoghurt, cereals, some scrambled eggs, an assortment of cold cuts, orange juice, coffee as coffee should be and some marmalades to start with. Could even be English marmalades. Or a Turkish breakfast, with up to15 items. I had some of those breakfasts in Izmir and Guzelçamli. Beating any English breakfast any time.

[@Superbokka]

Being North East born and bred and spending all my childhood holidays in Keswick in the Lake District I can confirm that a true Cumberland Sausage should be twirled.

[@gbhxu]

But were the sauces the real deal? Some places just fill up old bottles with a cheap catering brands of suace

[@TheMacMaster]

Yeah. I can tell. I'm a sauce snob. 😂 👍🏼 👍🏼 Good point though!!!!!! 👍🏼👍🏼

The thing with the London buses(TFL), as you know, go outside of London through parts of Kent, Essex, Surrey, Hertfordshire.....etc I mean dozen buses from bus station from Greenwich that go to Kent. I was only last in Greenwich a few months ago-I know this was posted last August but still lol

[@littlebigman5791]

On the buses used bristol lodekkas. When in London at that time the real LONDON buses were the aec RT and the best ever double double decker. The legendary aec routemaster.

[@lucaschapman2188]

Was on the Buses set in London? It was filmed in Borehamwood not far from where I live. I don't know if it was set in London though.

[@soft16stick70]

Service charge ... Taking the pee

[@ginagina9720]

Black pudding is well known in bury And in my opinion it’s not a full English without black pudding! I think that’s a rip off £29-93 you could feed a family of 4 for that price in Blackpool where I come from or if you look around you can get a full English for £5 come to Blackpool guys lol

[@ctm1602]

Do they have scottish Square Lorne Sausage in Blackpool ? If so i am starting the car

[@Real_raging_Rhino]

I'm from down South London and live iin South Yorkshire. A breakfast isn't right without fried bread. Daddies brown is the way to go imo.

[@carbonsiliconnn]

Looked a nice breakfast and not mental expensive for that there London. Quality produce, fresh tomatoes, bendy sausage,non-foam bacon, mushrooms looked fresh and not from a big 3 gallon catering tin stewing away. Got to love a bit of the Darren, brought up old school, never leaves a morsel and licks the plate clean. Still think he should be Bob Martin'd regularly though

[@TimK2646]

Wow KZbin Bots - OKAY I said great bus shots. Darren up the stairs. Those paper tickets they issued

[@Barry-zv5qt]

How can they call that a big breakfast ? one sausage, one egg, tbsp of beans, oh come on Lee, £29.00, £3.33 surcharge 😵‍💫😡

[@ianflatt811]

The carvings @ 6:42 look like Kuato from Total Recall

[@FK-zr9fn]

Great impersonation of Blakey from On The Buses. I’m sure the conductors name was Jack, and he used to get his leg over at turn around Betties. Breakfast looks good,should have a fried slice with it PLUS Black pudding eat it all up Lee you big girls blouse. To really top that breakfast off it required CHIPPED POTATOES. 8/10

[@grahamwallace4840]

great review, must try the place next time I'm in London but big Q - how did you do the "overhead" camera shot from undeneath the shop's sun canopy ??

[@TheMacMaster]

Thanks. I used my Insta 360 go 2 camera. Stuck it to the canopy. 👍🏼

[@deanmacreavy2135]

[@davidgriffiths3713]

You need to travel far north and try a good Scottish breakfast with lots of haggis.

[@paulbrown9802]

…and tattie scones!

[@Jocky-w6]

I thought you said you liked canned tomatoes not fresh tomatoes make your mind up.

[@jfergs.3302]

My main complaint would've been, only 1 sausage!, and no black pud (which i know you don't like), seemed a bit mean. Re hash browns, not really part of a F.E. They've crept in and if i get one i'll eat it, but if i didn't, it wouldn't bother me.

[@supersonicsid5930]

Hash browns are an added ingredient from the US thats made its way to the full English breakfast. Before they appeared it was always bubble & squeak. That will always be my preference but I still would be happy with hash browns. Heinz backed beans every time, daddy’s source and black pudding is an option. Always a a strong cup of Tea never coffee. Way to expensive in my opinion but it is London and rent comes at a premium.

[@mjt8199]

The breakfast has evolved over the years with hash browns added and in some rare cases a beef burger patty! Just like how language evolves as different cultures start to mix in, so does the food.

[@karengalley3669]

I had to rewind this as I thought I was hearing things….,.::”Proper tomato, none of that tinned tomato rubbish.” At last, all you have to do now is get the fish off from laying on chips, it must make the chips lose their crunch and go soft.

[@rickb3645]

£10.50!... For London, that's not bad at all Lee... Especially with them serving good quality produce. But that little pot of beans!... come on Greens, put a proper dollop of beans on the plate. Even if the price has to increase slightly from £10.50 to £11.00... It's called a "Big Breakfast" not a Skimpy Breakfast... By the way Lee, that was a very nice touch with the camera position, in placing it under the shops awning... Did you use a Gorillapod?, or something similar?. My only problem with it... is that 12.5% service charge... it has to stop... It's spreading faster than Covid. We need to kill it off... and quick!. All the best guys, keep up the good work. Cheers Lee. 🍺

[@ChrisandHeathervanlife]

A full English should have rind on streaky bacon, fat is where the flavour is. Fried bread went on a Sunday breakfast to use up the stale bread (no bread on a weekday breakfast) Amazing how a staple has morphed into something totally different, it used to be bacon, sausage, egg and fried up left over veg/tomato/mushrooms. Still even the modern English is better for you than a bowl full of grains.

[@seeuguys]

Hash browns? Since when was that ever part of a full English? Fried potatoes, squeak or potato scones maybe ... 1 point each for the sauces though, but taken off again for the service charge. Its high time employers paid hard working staff properly.

Service charge!!! I always question it, i'll leave a tip if its deserved, but i'll decide that.

What on earth did they do to the toast? Just show it to the butter. Looks so dry. The breakfast looked OK though. When they give you coffee in such small cups it goes down too quickly. I prefer a bigger mug.

On The Buses was fantastic, very funny. I think Jack was the blonde guys name. There was a season or so, without Reg. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think mushrooms make the meal, and way off can you have your eggs scrambled, or is that just wrong?

Beans in a bowl gets on my wick. Regardless of how good the sausage was and I realise its London but restaurant should be aiming for a 100% mark up not Double that. Overheads, product your looking at an outlay of £3.50 tops to cook and serve a customer. Piddly beans in a bowl its just a 7.

Another great review mate. I’m going to give this a 7/10. I always deduct a point for these ridiculous service charges regardless of establishment as I’m dead against them on principle. Seemed overpriced for what was on the plate as I always think black pudding and fried bread should come as standard on a fried breakfast but I know you don’t like black pudding so that’s fair enough. I’m the same with mushrooms, I can’t stand them so always ask to take them off and replace with something else. The sausage, bacon, egg and hash brown looked good. I prefer tinned tomatoes myself. But all in all it did look nice👍

[@lambertslee]

Lee I'm sure the heinze bottle was washed and refilled and I thought your bottom slice of toast looked burnt(I say you don't pay for burnt toast) also didn't like the look of Darren's egg I'd probably give that breakfast a 7 but not having been present it's hard to say. Another great video guys.
