Went to visit E. Pellici's on a trip to London because of this video and LOVED it. Great breakfast, brilliant atmosphere, the staff were super welcoming. And we did get some bread pudding to go - amazing! I will be going back every single time I'm in London for as long as it's open.
Go to #1 for a bit of a change. Go to #2 for Sunday brunch. Go to #3 for the classic breakfast. I've got to admit that 9 out of 10 times I would choose #3.
I think with the price as well it has to be a "treat" breakfast unless other people chip in and its brunch, so later in the day and you've got the room for the food. Otherwise, number 3 all the other times
The pellici bloke with the London accent stayed in the villa next to me in Italy! Got to know his kids proper well, he’s a top fella! Crazy to recognise him on here
The third place seems like instant comfort, a place you would go at the end of the week to catch up with everyone. Its got s very family like atmosphere. You know everyone and there something comforting about that
My mum used to have a burger van up here in Scotland and her breakfasts for £3.50p you got 2 sausages, 2 bacon, 2 eggs, 2 black pudding, beans, fried bread, or potato scone, a buttered roll and a cup of tea, or coffee. Couldn't beat it! 👍😎🍺⚽
I live just down the road from Pellicci's and spent so much of my childhood there. Food is absolutely amazing and the atmosphere is incredible. Would highly recommend you stop by if you are ever near Bethan Green/Hackney Road
Pellicci's is absolutely amazing. Grew up just down the road and it was a massive part of my childhood, still make sure to go there whenever I'm back from uni. My personal recommendation is the spaghetti bolognese, make sure to get some chips to mop up all the leftover sauce
Best full English I had while visiting was from a van outside a train station in Manchester (I think?) during an unexpected gap in a connection. They grilled the sausages and bread over coals and used a fearless amount of butter.
All 3 looked good, but the Hawkmoor looked best. Can't beat steak and eggs. That said, I'd love to check out the Italian place for the atmosphere, but I'd have to skip the mushrooms and blood pudding.
@@Smithy250 They went with a short rib, but they still called it steak. I imagine it's an English thing. I'd have been happy with pretty much any cut of beef, without the mushrooms and black pudding.
@@SirLyonhart they had a bacon chop, so it would be from a pig wouldn't it? I'm with you though, any cut of beef is awesome. I always like ordering a full breakfast, or big breakfast as it is commonly listed in Australian menus. For some reason the cafes and restaurants don't label it as an English breakfast. Shame though, considering Britain is our mother land.
@@milkshakemuncher Well, I can understand. For us, a full breakfast is either steak and eggs, or eggs and bacon and/or sausage, with buttered toast, and maybe pancakes or biscuits and gravy on the side. Mushrooms and beans, on or off toast, aren't even a thing for breakfast, and blood pudding isn't a thing ever.
Speedy’s do an amazing, really cheap breakfast. Proper greasy spoon cafe. It’s on North Gower St, closest tube station is Euston Square so it’s all still zone 1 and not far from Euston station. Staff are all great and all the customers seem to know each other - it can get a bit touristy though it was a film location for BBC’s Sherlock (which tbh I see as an added bonus)
I'm for the Italian one for breakfast and then the Scollops one for lunch. Sounds like a damn fine way of saving money and getting stuffed at the same time :)
Yep! They have a link in the description of some of their recent videos that takes you to sign up for their newsletter and once you sign up you'll get a link to their podcast that just started this past Friday!
Sorted food I have an idea for you to try. Why don't you cook some recipes from various points in history and see how our tastes buds (and stomachs) have changed? Could be interesting and funny :)
Thing is, for me I agree that the mushrooms and tomatoes are the most important parts of a Full English, but not for the reasons you'd think. It's easy for a restaurant or "greasy spoon" to get somebody to enjoy bacon, sausage, egg and fried bread, but to get someone to enjoy mushrooms and tomatoes as part of the same dish is a different ball game altogether. if a place can do the basics well, but make the mushrooms and tomatoes stand out, then they'll always have my custom.
Minor criticism. More distance between the eggs and the beans. I may want to mix them but I’d like that to be my decision. Use a sausage as a breakwater.
Went to E. Pellicci twice when I visited London, absolutely amazing. They gave us bread pudding both times! Also a scene from the film "Legend" was filmed at E. Pellicci, they have a picture of the scene hung up on the wall there.
Excellent choices all around and I don't know how I would rank them! Hawksmoore looks like a great place to go on a brunch date with and like Jamie said, if considering the ambiance, amount and quality of food that you get, pricing isn't bad at all. Piggy's Cafe - beautifully cooked scallops for that price? Absolute bargain. It's definitely a spot that all seafood lovers should visit. E Pellici is so charming and I really want to go just so I can meet everyone - especially you, Iris! The food looks fantastic and is so affordable. Out of the three, this is the spot I'd be most keen on visiting.
0:31-2:33 Piggy's Cafe is in Poplar, Tower Hamlets, 2:49-4:54 Hawksmoor in Spitalfields, Tower Hamlets, 5:01-7:26 E.Pellicci is in Bethnal Green, Tower Hamlets.
Went to London for the first time in October last year and made a POINT to get to E Pellici whilst there. Was staying on Bethnal green and it was HANDS DOWN the best. Walked in and immediately put at ease. Was served so much food I couldn’t possibly finish. They whisked my plate away and packed me a lunch to take with me sightseeing.... the balance of my breakkie in buttered bread and pudding AND tea to go... no additional cost! I’m going back to London for 2 weeks tomorrow and this time staying in Kensington... trying to work out getting back to Pellicis without breaking the bank in transport fees. Go! You’re not going to be disappointed!
If I had the money, and the ability to eat that much, I'd go with Jamie, but for good food, great atmosphere and brilliant value for money, it has to be Mike. Sorry Ben, but I really don't want to have Fish so early in the day.
Wow while watching this video I ate a lot and enjoyed you people eating, my vote will be for hawksmoor because it is my favourite also. Service is 5 star rated at my last visit my steak was cooked like hell really enjoyed it. After the lunch we booked a taxi in London from waterloocars.co.uk for our sightseeing tour. Both Highly recommended
Tricia Waldron fair point but you can treat yourself to a hawksmoor breakfast once in a while as they do individual portions of the same breakfast but it’s always worth it as the price is for the quality of food and service.
amyamo1 well the Wetherspoons and mccdonalds are better than normal mccdonalds and Wetherspoons, all so we have the flaming grill restaurants with weard burgers in St Helens near by , you should visit
I'm an Italian American and my aunt and uncle owned and ran a bar/restaurant near Pittsburgh. Pellicci's has the same vibe as their place. Everyone knows everyone and it's a local hangout. This actually brought a tear to my eye.
More of these! Like best Curry, Best Meatballs, Best Thai, Best Vietnamese, Best Chicken, Best Dessert, Best Icecream, Best South Korean. And there's gotta be some idk, Swedish inspired places etc as well, it could just swing into "Best Chinese inspired" etc.
In 2015 when I visited London the hotel I stayed at was in Shepard’ Bush and there was this super tiny breakfast/brunch place within walking distance called Hummingbird Deli. Arguably some of the the best food I got to eat while there 😍
Yep I am, but I still count. You, however, are ignorant and stupid and unfortunately that's permanent so your opinion will always be worthless. Good luck with that 😘
Can't remember its name, but there was a cafe we once stopped at in Peterborough. I thought £12 for a full English was outrageous until I tried it. That was years ago, but a week doesn't go by without me thinking about that breakfast. I should really go back and find it.
I'll gladly pay a bit over the odds for a good meal. It all depends on the quality of the ingredients and how well they're cooked. That said, Hawksmoor prices were WAY more than I'd usually pay, but to be fair the food did look amazing and the portions were huge. I'd like to give it a go to see if the prices are worth it. And I'd probably ask for a doggy bag (or three) and get several more meals out of it once I got the food home.
We are taking my son to London for his birthday and are plotting proper full English breakfasts. Fried toast and blood sausage seem so necessary... Mixing sauces for sure
I have to give the win to Mike because he had the key component of fried bread. I only have 4 things in my full English, and never eat it in the morning. I have 6 Richmond sausages cooked in the oven for about 20 minutes, 6 rashers of streaky bacon cooked in the wok with olive oil and salt until they are totally crispy but not burnt. I heat a tin of tomatoes with salt, pepper, and occasionally some basil. Once the bacon is draining on kitchen paper, i cook the fried bread in the bacon fat, about 30 seconds each side, then add salt to it. That's my version.😋
In Northern Ireland we have an equivalent of a full English called an Ulster fry. It’s basically the same thing but with potato bread and soda bread instead of toast.
You get toast with an Ulster Fry but more importantly, you get a bit of Dip with it too - could go some fadge, wheaten or soda right now. Also white pudding - yum, I could murder a fry-up right now. Not fussed about baked beans, a modern and unnecessary addition. You always got a bit of fried apple at my grannies, I put it down to that she was a culchie.
Recommended Pellicci to my Husband,, our daughter treated him to dayin London to visit where his granddad lived, Bow end of Old Ford, he still raves about the meal he had, they did a facetime from BG road and around to St. Matthias where I was a pupil.
OMG PELICCI!!! First of all... that gentleman that served them.... he's not putting on an act for camera... He really is like that in real life... The food there is so GOOD!
These all looked really interesting and I'd love to actually try them all as different takes on a full English. I think you're missing out though if you've not tried Polo Bar over at Bishopsgate, whenever I have to go to London for work I will always try to visit there at least once, and on the plus it's open 24hours so get your full English at whatever time of day you want.
FULL SCOTTISH BREAKFAST ALL DAY LONG 1. HAGGIS 2. SQUARE SAUSAGE 3. TAWTIE SCONE THEN A SELCTION OF BACON, BEANS, EGG, MUSHROOMS, FRIED BREAD, TOMATOES.
I think it is still there: I worked at 375 Ken High in 1979-1982, and there was a "caff" on the southwest side of the railway tracks just as Kensington High St. becomes Hammersmith Road. They did (and probably still do) a lovely breakfast!
Best part of a full English brekkie aside from the actual meal is the friends with you at your local spot catching up with everyone's week :)

The reason the scene from Legend was filmed there was due to the Kray Twins regularly using this cafe in the 50's and 60's

That Hawksmoor is the Guildhall one, it's the only branch that does breakfast.

You get toast with an Ulster Fry but more importantly, you get a bit of Dip with it too - could go some fadge, wheaten or soda right now. Also white pudding - yum, I could murder a fry-up right now. Not fussed about baked beans, a modern and unnecessary addition. You always got a bit of fried apple at my grannies, I put it down to that she was a culchie.
A proper full English has fried bread anyway, not toast, IMO.
Recommended Pellicci to my Husband,, our daughter treated him to dayin London to visit where his granddad lived, Bow end of Old Ford, he still raves about the meal he had, they did a facetime from BG road and around to St. Matthias where I was a pupil.
I haven't seen the food from Mike's place yet but he's my winner this time. Just the location is phenomenal.
OMG PELICCI!!! First of all... that gentleman that served them.... he's not putting on an act for camera... He really is like that in real life... The food there is so GOOD!
Lovinspoon in Dublin, Ireland. Best breakfast I've ever had.
Never clicked on a video so fast!
Ben A
Get an original line you pissflap
As you Were just seeing if the clichés still work
nailed it guys!
Arthur's Cafe - Kensal Rise. Always the go to for a pre-carnival breakfast. Apt timing for seeing this video!
The 3rd place wins it food aside the banter in that little place you can just tell is outstanding
Egg Bacon Sausage Mushrooms Baked Beans Tinned Tomatos Fried Bread Ketchup .
Nothing else except a nice cup of tea
Hash brown?
These all looked really interesting and I'd love to actually try them all as different takes on a full English.
I think you're missing out though if you've not tried Polo Bar over at Bishopsgate, whenever I have to go to London for work I will always try to visit there at least once, and on the plus it's open 24hours so get your full English at whatever time of day you want.
There is no reason to ever pay more than 8-9 quid for a full English
I would'nt pay that, £5-6 maximum, Basildon Market cafe next to the charity shop, full blow-out £4-50, you can't move after !!
pinkyman5155 that's a good deal m8
Anything over a fiver really needs to justify itself.
8 or 9 quid for a full english? Wtf xD they sprinkling gold on that shit?
I agree callum hahahaha
Having scallops for breakfast sounds divine to me. :)
Love it. All three are on my bucket list now when I get over there with the fam. Please more London's best videos.
I would never eat scallops for breakfast but they looked good.
Here am I just eating a dry piece of toast with just butter on...
How is it dry with butter on!!

*shite
At least call it Lorne! Square sausage indeed.
Haggis, hmm, you are a scot, right?
I just had supper, but watching this video I am hungry again!!
I went to all 3 places to try them after watching this thank you
For atmosphere it’s the Italian place
This is the 3rd time I’ve seen pellichis on you tube now , I’m gonna get there at some point this year
Jamie 2018: breakfast is great, lists a bunch of places
Jamie 2019: Starts breakfast pass it on with full english.
Rafina cafe in Reading. Had their breakfast today, been sooo many times and it's always fantastic.
E Pellicci looks wonderful for the companionship and company at breakfast !
What a mixture of experiences...
FULL SCOTTISH BREAKFAST ALL DAY LONG
1. HAGGIS
2. SQUARE SAUSAGE
3. TAWTIE SCONE
THEN A SELCTION OF
BACON, BEANS, EGG, MUSHROOMS, FRIED BREAD, TOMATOES.
All of them looked amazing. But personally I would have to go with Bens choice. That bacon and scallop roll looked off the hook.
Damn right Dave!
Gentlemen: You need to do a follow up on Iris. Her public demands it! ❤️❤️❤️
PS - Happy New Year 🎆🎈🎊🥳. Dear 2021, please be better.
I think it is still there: I worked at 375 Ken High in 1979-1982, and there was a "caff" on the southwest side of the railway tracks just as Kensington High St. becomes Hammersmith Road. They did (and probably still do) a lovely breakfast!
Then Pellici ends up being their ultimate English breakfats place recommendation 😁
