Reviewing PELLICCI'S HUGE BREAKFAST - THE BEST CAFE IN LONDON!

[@GreenoEats]

A cafe that busy and yet they make sure everything is cooked properly, especially those tomatoes which look incredible! Great video.

[@GaryEats]

Thanks so much! 😊 It's a wonderful place to eat. The staff are excellent!

[@andrewbowley6869]

Best tomatoes I've ever seen on a plate of cooked food, the tasty charring. Brilliant as usual Gary 👏

[@MichaelJoseph-vb5ml]

Of course. They're taking people's money. They trade off a reputation.

[@MichaelCampin]

That is bread and butter pudding not bread pudding which is alot lot darker but it still looked really good and tasty.

[@xamurai00]

Thats actually ''black pudding'' comprised of pig blood , fat, cereal sat and onion @@MichaelCampin

[@GaryEats]

Hi everyone. Apologies for the red footage during the video. Unfortunately as it's so busy, we couldn't get a seat inside and the only place we could viably sit was here next to the heater! Tried another camera but it was still exactly the same so hopefully you can deal with it for a few minutes. Back to normal as of the next upload. All the best. 😀

[@XenonXyanide]

Regardless, still another fantastic video. Keep up with the great work, Gary 👍🍺

[@GaryEats]

Thank you my friend. Thanks for watching!

[@robambrose4199]

Looks like you might have had ready break for breakfast? As I used to glow like that.

[@charlesjtwhite]

Gary, I am so pleased see you keep to a dignified and reserved style of video; no obnoxious music, overediting, exaggerated delivery, etc. You have a wonderful demeanour and presentation that really compliments restaurant reviews. Wish you success with this.

[@margaretnadin8030]

Hello Garry, I have been watching your vlogs for a couple of weeks now and am a subscriber. In my view you have ascended to the very peak of the food reviews for their honest no nonsence critiques. Above all you are fair in everything you say about the meal, whether it be good, bad or indiffetent. I can only feel for your cameraman who has to sit and watch you eat mostly top class grub. Gary, well done indeed because you have stormed into the You Tube communit😢y and within a short space of time made a very noticeable impact. Jim N

[@GaryEats]

Jim. That’s incredible kind of you to say and I’m happy that you’re enjoying my videos and feeling very positive towards the content. Much appreciated and have a wonderful day 😊

[@LewisEvans-b1t]

Totally agree, very good fair and honest reviewer…

[@RalphBrooker-gn9iv]

I agree. Gary is a genuine lad. Trust him. And love his polite, upbeat but honest treatment. Really enjoy this vids. Add to that I live in France so Gary tastes a lot of the food I really miss. Here, croissant and a coffee anyway. Each to their own. But a FEB! It set’s you up for the day. But doing it yourself, hard work and lots of washing up. Thanks Gary.

[@kristianbarford]

An amazing place. My travelling compadré (my eleven year-old son) went there a couple of years ago, the breakfast absolutely blew my mind. My son had pancakes, which he still maintains are the finest he's ever had. We went back about a year later; the waitress (THE waitress) remembered exactly what we'd had...having only ever been there once before, a year prior. If you've not tried Terry's Café (Borough) - that's equally worth a go. I'd also recommend the café on the same block on the Bethnal Green Road; Café 338. As many seem to do, I went in there during a business trip last year as the queue at Pellicci's, combined with my meeting agenda for the day, didn't allow for a queue. 338 is a worthy shout.

[@GaryEats]

Wow. Now that is incredible that the waitress remembered. The staff and the ambience is fantastic and they're a credit. Terry's was my first ever review, check it out!

[@cawstongreenway]

You have inadvertently given us all a lesson in customer service here. Greet everyone like they are old friends and you've known them for years. How great would the world go round if this was the case everywhere. Decent looking breakfast and nice to watch review 😋

Completely agree with you mate.

Smashing. I've heard so many good things about Pellicci's. Haven't been in the UK in years but when I'm back that's breakfast day 1

[@GaryEats]

It's a lovely place but be prepared to queue.

[@BS-lq8gm]

I've yet to go to a cafe that serves fresh English pork sausages, the kind you get from farms. Nowadays, most of it is from suppliers who sell those cheap Richmond-like sausages. I remember going to Uni in Portsmouth and there was a lovely cafe (which has now closed) near Fratton station and while it looked like in need of an update, most of the ingredients were sourced from local farms - and it tasted really good.

[@GaryEats]

Hard to find.

[@michellealexandracotton8836]

So hear you on Richmond sausages.. they are absolutely vile!!

[@jackmeeellleee4896]

As a yank my palate has not been raised on several of the things on that breakfast plate. But, that plate had enough food for a family of four! Not sure when I will ever be in London again, but I will remember this video and if somehow my wife and I end up in the capital city of Old Blighty one day, then off to E. Pellicci's we shall go.

[@GaryEats]

Enjoy it Jack!

[@alexp601]

What isn't to your palate on that breakfast? Apart from the black pudding of course (I'm guessing).

[@jjryan1352]

Yanks normally eat this much for breakfast at any diner or Denny's, not to mention IHOP.

[@JamesOMalley-hb4tf]

​@@alexp601answering for him as an American obviously the blood sausage is a different thing, as is the baked beans, we have baked beans as a side usually at cookouts etc because it's an easy side like potato salad. Tomatoes are also strange to see for breakfast but I do like and eat everything except the blood sausage. A typical American breakfast has eggs, bacon, ham or sausage usually, hashed browns, which are just shredded potatoes, but large portions of those. My breakfast this morning at a restaurant, two fried eggs over easy, hash browns that I mix with the eggs, three slices of bacon, and biscuit and cream gravy. Bear mind a biscuit here is more like what you think of as a scone, it's not sweet it's savory and the gravy is savory. Sometimes we get toast instead of biscuits and gravy it's so heavy. Some of the stuff on the English breakfast plate are only out of place for breakfast but would be perfectly accepted for lunch or dinner. It's remarkable how similar European peoples tastes are, considering Americans euro offspring.

[@alexp601]

@@JamesOMalley-hb4tf Thanks for clarifying. The blood sausage is actually more of an Irish breakfast item and not traditionally in an English breakfast, although over the years it’s become a bit more commonplace in England (there’s even white pudding as well black pudding). I’d say hash browns are also something that isn’t traditional but has made its way onto most plates, which is fine by me as I love them. I had the loosely shredded version of hashed browns in a Denny’s years ago, but ours are always pre-formed into patties instead of loose. Generally though it sounds like our tastes are pretty similar.

[@Ziggylyle]

Gary you bring everything to life, as if we were there enjoying the food with you. Love the cafe, Art Deco my favourite, what a breakfast. Oh the bread pudding looked delicious. Well done Gary, great show.

As a son of Italian parents I say "Bravo Paesano". When my relatives came to England for my sister's wedding they loved a full English and Roast Sunday Dinners, beef was their favourite and of course Fish and Chips, so much for British food being tasteless. Mind saying that Italian food takes some beating, our neighbours loved my mom's lasagna and pizza as well as the pasta dishes.

I lived in Bethnal Green for about three years until 1994. I used to pop into Pellicci's on a Saturday to read the paper. This was before it got listed by English Heritage and, from memory, it was just an ordinary cafe with decent grub and friendly staff. I don't remember the hash browns or the huge portion option but I suppose they're new additions. I'm from the north of England so I wasn't aware of any history to the cafe. But a lot of guys, who looked like they could handle themselves, used to come in on a Saturday morning too with their training bags. I assumed they were boxers.

Hi Garry. I live abroad but I was in London for 3 weeks in October after an absence of 4 years! You’ve already ticked off 2 of the places I dined in - firstly, the Flat Iron (in my case, the one behind Spitalfields) and secondly, the crème-de-la-creme, Pellicci’s in Bethnal Green! I was fortunate enough to be sat at the ‘Kray’s’ table for my visit to Pellicci’s, and, like you, I was on my very best behaviour! Your scores do both venues justice - and I also came away with a complimentary slab of bread pudding! I was so stuffed after my superb breakfast, I have to confess that rather than waste the pudding, I gave it to one of many homeless persons in London! He was honestly so appreciative and it made me feel good for the rest of the day! Keep up the good work! 😊

The fact the staff made you feel so welcome compounds that this was a well recommended place to try out! Would have swapped the toast for fried slice myself though :) Your score was in line with a sensational plate of food. make sure you have your Xmas jumper on when you go there again next month! 😆

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Joe. I'll have it on mate - hope you've got yours ready! 😋

Beans are not just beans.The taste, texture, sauce can vary enormously from brand to brand. I find the best beans are Branston Baked Beans.Lovely thick rich tomato sauce.So beans do vary. Nice breakfast you had there.

[@GaryEats]

It was superb.

[@benllewellyn1887]

Also cooking them slow.

[@keithphilbin3054]

Branston here too 👍

[@margaretmaskell9985]

I agree. Branston beans for me as well.👍🏻

[@lint8391]

Home cooked beans for me. It's easy to make something that's tastier and healthier than what you get from a can.

Now that is a quality breakfast.What a find.Great video Gary and of course full appreciation to the camera man😊

This is a great café to go for the atmosphere, Rachel

Hi Gary, I've literally started watching your vlogs in the past couple of weeks & I really like them, straightforward, honest & I deffo need to make a trip to Pellicci's now, that brekkie looks well lush xx

[@GaryEats]

Thanks so much 👍

[@michellealexandracotton8836]

@@GaryEats you very welcome! Finally decided to come here on Easter Saturday & lemme tell ya I certainly wasn't disappointed! Lovely food & staff, Anna was simply amazing! She even gave us a free pudding after our brekkie, I already wanna go back!

[@donnienlefty]

Glad that it lived up to all the other reviews. Even though they mostly use quality ingredients, £16 does seem a bit expensive especially as it doesn't come with a drink and only 1 egg. What happened to the mushrooms and fried bread? Quality wise you'll struggle to get a better recommendation. Yes you will get bigger and cheaper, but it wont taste better. Glad you didn't make us wait until Christmas 👍

[@GaryEats]

Haha you’re welcome. I got the mushrooms taken off and forgot to order bubble. In all honesty, I had a bit of a mare. Thanks mate.

[@iainmorrison7501]

seems that these days fried bread has been replaced by hash browns, hash browns should never be on any full breakfast and totally agree mushies with any breakfast worth its salt

[@donnienlefty]

@@iainmorrison7501 I do enjoy a fried slice but its a rarity these days. Its a lot of bread if it comes with 2 pieces of toast/bread and a fried slice. Quite like a couple of hash browns tho.

[@monicanath4859]

That breakfast looked extraordinary! I am really pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food, especially the sausages. I don’t eat meat from the pig but wouldn’t mind trying that. It is a shame you couldn’t have your bubble and squeak. I also really love hash browns but prefer mushrooms which I have noticed you don’t like. I also love to add a little cheese and an avocado if I can also. It is a shame you were soaked there. If has been dry on this end in the West of London. Thanks again for this wonderful review 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼!

[@GaryEats]

You are more than welcome Monica 😊

[@montyf3594]

It is without doubt the best English breakfast I have ever had. The family are amazingly warm and welcoming. My two indicators of a good breakfast are ... are good eggs, white cooked runny yolk and quality black pudding NOT over cooked. The bacon is almost gammon. Perhaps a third is no hash browns, but each to his own. Finally the bubble and squeak is epic, as is the coffee.

[@GaryEats]

Without a doubt. It was absolutely superb and I’m glad you also enjoy it!

[@ezragonzalez8936]

British food is so bland embarrassing and depressing describing a Full English breakfast like it's some kind of gastronomic achievement! ha ha ha British cuisine consists of 4 dishes Fish and Chips Sunday roast Hotdogs and Mash ploughman's all rubbish! boring dishes! Cheers From Park City Utah!

[@paranoidgenius9164]

Now that looks grand! Those tomatoes are perfectly grilled, you cannot beat the taste of grilled tomatoes!😊❤ £18 is pretty steep though!😮

[@GaryEats]

Agreed.

[@marklewarne239]

Hello Gary another great video I really enjoy watching your videos as they are really well made and consistent. As for breakfasts I don't like beans so I always sub beans for an extra egg. Thanks again

[@GaryEats]

Cool, thanks Mark. All the best mate.

[@douglasgrahamdronefilmingp2068]

A sensational 😂😂 video once again. Only a few days ago I congratulated you on passing 10K subscribers now you've smashed the 12k just shows you what a great food reviewer you are. Well done Gary

[@GaryEats]

Thank you so much 😁 I’m as shocked as you are!

[@horace650]

The only gripe I would have is there was only one egg. I'd prefer half the beans and get the extra egg. Most cafes these days tend to use the beans as a cheap plate filler.

[@GaryEats]

I understand your observations, thank you

[@lindahughes2289]

AGREE ! 1 EGG ONLY! RIDICULOUS, MADE IT CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP !

[@Deadman1957TEB]

Not much more can be said, looked very good indeed, I would of liked two eggs, especially for the price, but that's because I like even numbers, agree about the hash browns as long as they are good like those looked, just not chips, which seems to be a thing these days! Look forward to your critique of the Italian menu. It's great you have has many views as subscribers, 12.5 k another 1000 added since yesterday, amazing sir. Keep 'em coming Gary!

[@GaryEats]

Prefer the Hash browns to chips on a breakfast. Thank you very much Deadman and thanks for being part of the show since the earlier days!

[@DK-pv5cg]

Gary, I knew you would get to Pellicci's eventually. I have also "given it a go" at Pellicci's and enjoyed it immensely. Whilst there I had the whole lot but substituted bubble for hash browns based on personal preference. Added bonus was saying hello to Mama Maria, the lovely lady who cooks the Cafe's exceptional eats.

[@GaryEats]

It's superb there mate. They're a lovely family!

[@davidmasters2408]

Hi Gary, first time commenting on one of your vlogs. Born and raised in Bethnal Green (live in Woodford Green now) but still visit the area regularly. Pellicci’s has always served great food and it would be hard to find anywhere to beat it. However, not a million miles away from there is another amazing cafe in my opinion…..It is called The Full Monty and it is located at 254 Globe Road, Bethnal Green, London E2 0JD. The food is always top notch, the portions generous, the menu extensive and very reasonably priced. I heartily recommend that you “give it a go!” Take care mate and keep up the great work! 👍

[@GaryEats]

Hi David. Great to see you commenting and I will be sure to check out The Full Monty when I’m next in the area 😊 thank you!

[@mikeb3010]

As a once a month treat, awesome, my local cafe is £6:50 for a very decent everyday breakfast, there certainly is a place for both types 👍

[@GaryEats]

Totally agree Mike!

[@nekro9t2]

£18 for an English breakfast...you were mugged off! That's a standard plate of food that you could buy for half the price in hundreds of cafes across the country. It's nowhere near the best breakfast, just the best promoted cafe in London. They're all over social media.

[@GaryEats]

I didn't say it was the breakfast, I said it was the best cafe which in my opinion it is - Paolo's still holds the best breakfast for me. Plus, it was £16 to be fair and I missed off an extra which I should have added.

[@nekro9t2]

@@stevieb9490 this is expensive even for London! A typical large breakfast costs £7-8

Agree with others £18 is extortionate. Greasy spoon fry up should be £10 at the most. Looks a great fry up though.

[@GaryEats]

Fair comment Gary.

[@rhuxley5130]

I've been loving your work for a few weeks now. I come to London in may and you are helping to shape my ideas of how to eat in your city. My two requests so far are. 1) atleast two meals reviewed at the restaurant named Rules. And 2) idk if you can do eggs Benedict but I think it would be awesome to look up who has the reputation for the greatest eggs Benedict and then let em compete. 🧔🏻👍🏻🇺🇲keep up the great work.

Thank you very much. Rules is on my list but will be very difficult to film, that's my only problem.
