I'm going to join the other regional Brits and say, "HOW MUCH!?" Here in West Yorkshire, I can't think of anywhere that charges as much as £12 for a fry up. A fiver is standard - eight quid if you want to push the boat out - maybe up to a tenner for a belly-buster.

Transport Cafés are the best place for full English. The Redbeck Motel in Wakefield serves them from £4.50 to just under six quid. The top price one is called the "breakfast special" and is not for the faint-hearted. Strong tea, lost coffee, cheap white bread and furniture bolted to the floor. THAT'S where you get a good breakfast.

Seriously, hell, I'm in East London and even round here I can only think of one place that gets close to twelve quid (hipster place, admittedly very nice), most places you'd be looking at five or six quid (with a mug of tea included whether you like it or not...) for two egg, two bacon, chips or some other potatoey thing, mushrooms, two sausages and toast (my standard order as a non-bean/tomato person...) (Also sourdough fried bread sounds like an abomination, use normal bread for Pete's sake.)

I’m originally from the East End and moved up here to Warwick 10 years ago and the full English in London varies from about £4 where I used to live to around £12 around Borough market which is scandalous, but as long as visitors or trendy people want to pay that amount the price will stay high.

North 1 South divide again! You can get a good quality full English breakfast for half the price 'Up North'! I pay around £4 - £5 for a traditional large breakfast and for £10 can get an unlimited 'all you can eat' cooked breakfast. I guess it's not just the North / South Divide... as with most major cities London is naturally going to cost a lot more than other parts of the country. I'm sure there are places down south that are much cheaper than what you guys paid! We also have fried bread, black pudding and hash browns as standard up north! Glad to see you both trying our national breakfast though! 🍳👍

Those prices were all scandalous, especially the 'cheap' one at £8.50. That is not a greasy spoon price. I live 200 miles from London but know you can get better value than that there. I live in the Manchester area and you can get a far bigger, and probably better, full English for around half that. If they tried charging prices like that around here, they'd soon be out of business

The “potato” thing on the works is called Bubble and Squeak. It is usually mashed potato combined with cabbage (and maybe broccoli and onion and is fried like a patty). Traditionally however it would make from whatever leftover vegetables you have from the meal you’d have had the previous evening. Waste not, want not as they say....

The second place the beans look like they where kept warm for a long time and thickened up, its nice but I don't think they where fancy beans. I cook my beans in a ramekin with the bacon and sausage in a oven if I am being lazy and the beans end up looking like that. Also that bacon was well underdone that fat needed to be crispy, also its not a real full breakfast/fry-up without black pudding. The bread was not fried that was just toasted. I wouldn't of paid £14 for it but I like my old school fry-ups. Not a great place to eat but you need to do a Wetherspoon at least once when in the UK, also their all-day breakfast is £4.75. But great video.

I am from Wales, I had a fantastic 30-year career with the Met police and for the last three of those, I worked out of Lambeth. I spent maybe six mornings of those 3 years, before going onto major policing matters, eating a full English in this location - we had the whole of London to choose from - I can honestly say, this was the best proper breakfast I have had anywhere or anytime in my entire pan-London career. The bonus was, everyone ordered something different from the guy you see at 14.46, but, like, 30 minutes later, he pulled it straight from memory for your bill without any error!! It never failed to amaze me. Oh, and the food is F****ng amazing. I am retired now and living over 140 miles away. But I loved that place - Track it down. tell me I'm wrong.

There is an amazing bistro called The Bakehouse on Shetland Lane for the high end, a bakery called Quigleys that does a take away breakfast that is really good value, and also the Morrisons cafe in Widnes do an All Day Breakfast that has lots of options (including haggis, white pudding, poached egg or scrambled egg), if you want to create your own, and being further north your budget won't be stretched as much.

I'm glad for the comments for this video, taking notes of all the places suggested, thank you! A quick question, is it the norm for people to take home any leftovers from breakfast? In the States it happens all the time especially if you order a gut buster on the menu (which can be close to the $10 price point, but most breakfasts are in the $6- $8 range for eggs, bacon/sausage/ham, buttered toast, and a fried potato of sorts like hash browns or home fries).

You should go to a place where the items can be ordered as separate items, you can then get exactly what you want as your breakfast, best off at a backstreet greasy spoon.

If you ever get the chance to come to Reading (35 miles West of London) a little cafe called "Munchees" does the same Full English as the 1st place you went to but for around £5, you don't have to book plus American 50's style booth seating. Highly recommended.

Everyone saying in the comments about the price and how they can get it cheaper. guys its London........ they add at least £5 on everything just because also you can't really put a price on the experience of it all. I'm happy that they are happy!

Great vid guys, love these little food ones you come up with in the UK. If you are still here, you must try another UK cuisine tradition and that’s getting a Indian Takeaway. This is probably more popular than Fish & Chips. Most people have a mix of a traditional curry, rice, naan bread, onion bhajis, samosas and popadoms. Get in a few beers, order the takeaway and whack on a good film. Give it a bash guys, you will love it and it will be a really good vid 👍

I think you need to point out how much more expensive food is in London. £8.50 for that first breakfast is completely unrepresentative of anywhere outside the capital. As an example, I’m having breakfast tomorrow in a very good standard pub/restaurant chain in Birmingham where my all-you-can-eat breakfast is costing me £4.29. In a greasy spoon up here breakfast plates start from about £2.50 for a small up to about £4.50 for a large, both including toast/fried bread and a hot drink.

I see at the second place that they had a breakfast classic, devilled kidneys. It is something I would jump at on a menu as you don't see it so often. Its more regularly seen at country hotels (along with kedgeree and kippers), and let's face it, it is rather 'Victorian' but well worth trying.
