Reviewing TRADITIONAL BRITISH FOOD at a 1940s WORLD WAR 2 CAFE!

I've gone to Poppylands! After travelling over 3 hours, we made it to the town of Horsey which is home to a fantastic World War Two 1940 Cafe and Tearoom decorated with some of the finest memorabilia that I;ve ever seen. Vintage.

That’s a lovely review especially this weekend remembering all our war veterans from past and now . Can’t fault this one . What a lovely review.❤️🙏🏼🌹

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Karen. Decided that it would be the right time to do this specific place - had been on my list for a while. Thank you 😊🌹

[@ant7936]

Just one Q Gary; what are you going to eat for the rest of the month? You've just eaten a whole month's ration card in one meal!

[@GaryEats]

This is going to be a very strict diet my friend, lol. Thanks for watching!

[@walter.s8145]

😄😄😂

[@norcatch]

He'll probably go to either a communal feeding center or a British restaurant depending on whether it's before or after Churchill decided the former sounded like communism.

[@algorithm4390]

Was thinking same.. in fact Brits didn't leave rationing till 1952 or thereabouts..

[@Bopsterboy]

@@algorithm4390 1954 was around the time rationing finished.

[@mm28sqnsekkong]

This really brought back memories for me, my grandmother cooked these meals and many a time we ate them in the shelter in the back garden during a doodlebug alert . I've got tears in my eyes. Thanks for this one Gary.

[@GaryEats]

I'm sorry that the video reduced to tears but I hope they were happy tears. It's unbelievable that you witnessed the doodlebugs. You're more than welcome my friend and I would love to hear more of your stories for sure Melvyn. Thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed it. Thought it would be very poignant 🌹

[@jasonsmart3482]

The only disappointing things its not 1940s prices. How wonderful. takes you back to the days when a cup of tea and a toasted tea cake was all you needed to make you happy. Really comforting

Did go there with some friends when we spent a few days in Sea Palling, the food and the ambience was just fantastic. I had bangers and mash, one of the better bangers and mash I have had. My wife had the breakfast and she was really enjoying it, but what really stood out was all the memoribilia and the ambience. Fantastic service and high quality traditional British food through and through! Another fantastic review, Gary, I really enjoyed this one, I enjoy all of your reviews, but this one brought back some nice memories. Keep up the fabulous work, mate and congrats on very soon hitting 10K subscribers. Hopefully in a few months you can multiply that with 10, you guys deserve it! Speak to you very soon, buddy! 🙂👌

Gary what a great place that is , i have never heard of it bit will be going there for sure . That would be a great place for school children to visit also . My nan used to make a pie called Woolton pie ,named after the health food minster at the time . No meat but made with vegetables ,was lovely . I miss my nans plain cooking , boy could her meals fill you up lol . My grandad would often describe what life was like during the war and after . You cant begin to imagine what life was life for them all back then . Great review Gary ,keep em coming . Cheers

[@robertleach9120]

I must say Gary that Poppylands is simply delightful with wonderful memorabilia adding such an ambience to the room. I can almost hear the strains of "Uncle Arthur", Stupid boy" & "They don't like it up 'em" coming through the walls ! Dad's army was a family favourite for me growing up. The food did not disappoint either making it a must visit for anyone in the UK or visitors from elsewhere. Congratulations on reaching 10,000 subscribers too Gary & I'm proud to be one of them ! Your vlogs are always well presented, informative & honest. Well done & here's to another 10,000 very soon !

How on earth did you stumble across such an incredible place?. Amazing surroundings backed up by clearly very good quality produce and definitely one to log into my memory banks.

Being former RAF, I really like the look of this place. My very young grandsons love Dad's Army. They'd love this. The food looks tip top too. Well done on hitting 10k too.

[@GaryEats]

Wonderful mate. Thank you for your service. All the best!

[@JanetBrown-px2jn]

I think that was a fun place to go to,and the menu was very creative,though I wish they had made the breakfast more authentic,there was no chips,or baked beans on breakfast in the forties,but there was black pudding,kidneys,and fried bread,dipped in bacon fat Unfortunately I’m old enough to remember.I suppose people today don’t eat things like black pudding,kidney,and liver,so no use putting it on the dish,at that time we ate rabbit,roasted,or as a stew,and liver,and onions,I also remember mackerel being one of the common fishes,and plaice,hake,and row being sold in the F& C shops.Glad you enjoyed it.😊

[@GaryEats]

That's fair enough Janet. Thanks for watching!

[@BarryMoreno-zx4dc]

Quite right. No chips for breakfast!

[@jshaers96]

I'm sure these sorts of tearooms would be very popular if they had more of them in this country rather than the ubiquitous coffee shops. We don't seem to see many places that are the equivalent of American diners. Great review, Gary.

[@GaryEats]

I would love to open one myself! Thank you my friend.

[@stephenluke2347]

We visited a WW2 museum this year near Boston, Lincolnshire. It was called "We'll meet again" and has a Ration Book cafe, but they don;t serve cooked food. It is open at weekends and bank holidays.

[@mrdarcy9379]

Loved this gorgeous place Poppyland. Just brilliant in every way . Everything looked so lovely , from the Johnson Brothers tea cups to the traditional breakfast. The perfect place to go on rememberance day. Or armistice day as its called in the UK 🇬🇧 🇦🇺

[@AnsyCrofts]

Excellent as always! I did wonder if Baked Beans were around then, but found this snippet: "Between 1941 and 1948, The Ministry of Food classified Heinz Baked Beans as an "essential food" as part of its wartime rationing system". Wow! One thing - did they cook the chips in lard?

[@GaryEats]

Wow, great info! Thanks for letting me know :)

[@stingray4real]

The original baked beans contained pork. Due to rationing the pork was removed. That's how we got the baked beans we are eating.

Well done Gary- what a great review! Well filmed and excellent narrative. My father was in the Army, serving in Germany after the war. We used to have sausage, eggs and hips in the NAAFI on our way home. It is still my favourite. Poppyland deserved your top marks. Just one thing missing in the nostalgia - everybody finished their meal with a lovely Players cigarette.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you Philip. A nice little read that - thank you.

[@lesliecarter8322]

Same here, my Dad was in Army 1940 to 1964, several postings in Germany, Gib, HK etc. Always a Naafi feed.

Did your Dad enjoy a cigarette after a meal?@@lesliecarter8322

[@robcoles8493]

Wow Gary - 10K subs is remarkable in this short time. Well done. I was surprised you gave both meals a 10 - the sausages looked over done for my taste but hey you were the one eating them. So did the eggs but again - you said they were good so fair play. Looked like a lovely place to visit and im a sucker for old style sweets and would have filled the boot for the journey home! Look forward to the next review.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you very much Rob. In all honesty, I was in awe of the place so maybe I was being a little kind. I couldn't give it any less than a 10 but the food was nice!

Great clip Gary and Mr cameraman to which firstly congratulations on hitting 10k Subscribers you have both done so well. Place wise it was a great spot with lots to see, and a gift shop that was lovely. Score wise im afraid it was an 8 for me as it does so annoy me as iv said before when they use a quality sausage then deep fry it 😒. Also im not really a big fan of Chips on a breakfast, and can just about accept hash browns. On saying this i would certainly give the place a try, as it looks quite amusing. Chris.

[@GaryEats]

Hi Chris. No problem mate, can understand your reasoning as I don't usually go for chips on a breakfast. Thanks for your kind comments as always!

[@markramsay6399]

What a fantastic place and video! Just such a perfect video and venue for this weekend. I also note you have hit over 10K (and I think you were about 5K when I first noticed this channel a few weeks ago). That increase is well deserved, and long may that upward trend continue. As others have said (as I read below), you are in my opinion No 1 on KZbin for this type of content - so don't go changing anything lol. Mark.

Breakfast for dessert, that's different! More than 9 chips as well, you've been spoilt, lol! If you had asked for it to come 15 minutes after your bangers and mash, those eggs would of been runny!

Really love the look of this place. Love the.sound of the menu. Real English food, not the pretend version we get lumbered with in London. At three times the price. As I watch this, I'm drooling!!! The bangers and mash is a good portion, the sort of portions that we got when I was a kid in the 1970s. 10 out of 10. The breakfast looked delicious too. And a good portion. I like chips with a fry up. They looked good. 10 out of 10. A great review for our special remembrance day. Good of you to do it this way. Gary, if you go there again, please try a suet pudding !!!

[@stevekirkby6570]

Fascinating place Gary - However in reality I think the menu would be a no-go in wartime, due to rationing. I think you got 2 rashers of bacon per week and quater oz of butter? But anyway, looks great. Nostalgia eh? Brits in ww2 could only have dreamed of the plates you enjoyed. But yes, looks good and a different place to visit indeed! PS, what happened to your poppy - looks like the dog got to it :) Edited to ask.... did Heinz beanz exist during the war... a German company? Or am I mistaken?

Yet another great review. I think the bangers and mash were perfect if you wanted decent comfort food and the gravy looked seriously thick, which I do like. The breakfast presentation was very good and it's nice to see the beans in a small pot as it keeps them warmer for longer and not everyone, including me, likes beans splashed all over their food. It's got some very quaint touches overall and the ambience is clearly unique. I'm pleased the long drive was worth it for you. A well-deserved marking for the serious thought and effort that has gone into making this unique establishment.

That was absolutely amazing, could see the pleasure on your face. Your appetite is incredible, one of those would have filled me up but appreciate you are surveying the restaurant so as long way away better than coming back for a second time, although you seemed game for that maybe.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you! I usually like ordering two things so I can give a proper review of the food. Thanks for watching!

Evening Gary👍 very nostalgic, we have a 1940s café /tearoom here on the Isle of Wight in the seaside town of Ventnor it's decorated just like that (obviously) and it's very popular for cakes. Your bangers and mash looked lovely and although I wouldn't have chips with a breakfast they looked amazing. Super step back in time video, cheers✌️🍻

[@GaryEats]

Evening Martin. That sounds brilliant mate, have you got a name for it? You're welcome!
