They are both fantastic, having lived in both countries for many years, the Scottish breakfast just nudges it. It has links and steak lorne so best of both. Then the haggis and potato scone just take it to another level. It’s really important to go to a reputable breakfast place like Coia’s in Glasgow.

[@mjudec]

Coias is good for picky eaters too as you can build your own breakfast from their list of options.

[@michael42158]

@Everyday I’m Eating The English Breakfast has been around for hundreds of years but beans didn't arrive until the early 1900s.

[@jeandonaghue2150]

@Michael Flynn It's the same with the hash brown and tattie scone. Full English dates back to the 13th century, and potatoes were not introduced to the UK until the 16th century. The same goes for the tomatoes. Go far enough back in history, and u will find that most of the ingredients will not have been part of a full English

[@Korea4Me]

Hey Mr Everyday! If you want a Scottish Breakfast, please come to Scotland next time. You get beans...honest! That square sausage looked weird, by the way. ^_^

[@johnbeyer791]

Both looked delicious. I’ve had both but must withhold judgement until I’ve enjoyed a few more of each!

[@GaryYork-tk2ow]

Here in the Southern US we make sausage similar to the Scottish square sausage. Ground pork or "minced" as you call it, seasoned and then made into patties with your hand before they go into the skillet. We also do the same with our deer meat, having it made into deer/pork combo sausage, the pork added for the fat content because deer meat has no fat.

[@everydayimeating3407]

I've never had deer meat before. That sound interesting. What does it taste like?

[@catherinelw9365]

@@everydayimeating3407 Personally, I'm not a fan of venison. Too gamey. If it was made from elk, then I'd devour it.

Most places in Scotland a Scottish Breakfast is all the things you'd get in an English plus square sausage, potato scones and haggis.

@Everyday I’m Eating the "Square Sausage" looked like an abomination, no Stornoway Black Pudding, a cheap looking link sausage and haggis slice, burnt bacon and Tattie scone ( only one as well), an over done egg and where was the round sausage? You definitely need to come and get a real on one!

[@24magiccarrot]

A Scottish breakfast in Scotland usually is everything. For most people in Scotland, it's everything that's in an English with the addition of haggis, square sausage, and tattie scones.

[@vgshwk]

Being that I have had neither I probably would’ve gone with the Scottish breakfast but with that being said both were expensive.

[@22seanmurphy]

Hello mate, I've been a butcher now for almost 40 year's the taste you get a hint of in the black pudding is nutmeg, definitely the English breakfast as the bacon looked very good and it's nice to see vine-ripened cherry tomatoes for a change, good to see that you're not one of those people who won't even try black pudding or haggis as they both if made properly our delicious, I enjoyed that 🍻

Oh nutmeg. Yes I like to give things a try!

When I lived in Scotland the Scottish breakfast always had beans mushrooms Lorne sausage ,haggis ,black pudding ,two eggs, hash browns ,toast two bacon and two sausages. It was especially good when the Black pudding was from Stornaway Scotland. The square Lorne sausage always look better than that. Thanks for showing us those breakfasts.

[@everydayimeating3407]

Haha the combo bites are what its all about lol

[@HC_GUITAR]

You get beans with a scottish breakfast in Scotland.

[@martinbobfrank]

They both look great, so I'll live with any decision. However, anything over £7 and you're paying extra to be there; a local cafe is normally better quality and a better price. Small, local places tend to have working-class people who have actually cooked breakfasts for their families. Places like these tend to have younger people who are told what to put into where and what to do, so do not have any proper cooking skills, experience or knowledge. A British breakfast is a cookery art form and not a menu item to be ticked or de-selected. You know the difference once you have had it.

[@TheWeardale1]

the english looked better quality, but it's not often i have a scottish one so I'd opt for that one this time.. :)

[@everydayimeating3407]

Fair enough lol

[@24magiccarrot]

It did look like he went to a top end place for the English and a poorer quality place for the Scottish, also you aren't going to get the best Scottish breakfasts outside Scotland. The square sausage in this didn't look great quality, the black pudding didn't look like it was stornoway which is a game changer, most people would also have beans, mushrooms and scrambled egg. So didn't look like the best example of a Scottish breakfast.

[@leeandmandybattersby5958]

the first bacon looked amazing

[@everydayimeating3407]

It was some of the best bacon i've had! 😋

[@jimmierasmussen9298]

Liked both English and Scottish breakfasts although 3-points more for English breakfast for baked beans in tomato sauce, mushrooms and tomatoes in vines, rate 98-points vs 95-points for Scottish.

[@bmclaughlin01]

A real Scottish also has beans, mushrooms and tomatoes. It’s basically an English breakfast with extras.

[@alanthomson1227]

Streaky bacon is made from pork belly ! Some items on Scottish were overcooked .Scottish square or Lorne sausage should be beef .

[@everydayimeating3407]

I agree, I think they were a bit over done. I've had breakfasts from there before and there were cooked really.

[@FightingFish990]

That wasn't a proper scottish breakfast

[@FightingFish990]

As in, it wasn't even in scotland

[@24magiccarrot]

Most square sausage is a combination of pork and beef which is why you get the best of both worlds in the flavor it's like a beef burger and bacon had a baby.

[@rebelmindset6312]

English breakfast differs from county to county. An English breakfast from London will look completely different from one from Birmingham. Some ones don’t have baked beans. Some have a significant amount of fried bread. But on the thumbnail the Scottish one looks wayyyyyyy better then the English brekkie.

[@Tidybitz]

There are things to like on both breakfasts. What looked like quality ingredients on both of them makes them look even better. I liked the look of the sausages on both breakfasts, the egg was better on the Scottish one and the bacon was nicer on the English, I really like crispy streaky bacon. I loved the large mushroom too, the best type. I love vine tomatoes, but I'd never want them on my breakfast, especially with the stalks still attached, I'd leave them, I want tinned plum tomatoes on my breakfasts. Also, the beans would be better on the plate and not in a pot on the plate ... another thing which bugs me. I cant' really pick one over the other here, I want to pick n mix, Ha! Nice video.

[@everydayimeating3407]

Thats probably the best idea. Pick n mix both of them!

[@user-xh3lz9xt4l]

No hash browns add my liver or kidneys with fried bread. At least on the Full English you got a proper sausage. I will comment on Scottish shortly as my ex comes from Glasgow.

[@theevilascotcompany9255]

My vote's for the English breakfast because of the natural-looking bacon and the innovative potato pakora, but I get that if you like runny yolk the Scottish one is an automatic win.

I normally find the "English breakfast" to be absolutely revolting, but that looks excellent, proper butchers sausage and the belly pork bacon, and that potato cake looked delicious!

As a Scotsman, I prefer the Scottish, but no one serves Marmite with the toast anymore and nowhere does the mixed grill anymore. Usual brekkie stuff plus pork chop, rump steak, lamb chop and sometimes venison. Long time ago now.
