It looked ok ... but can you remember Little Chef Service Stations...their Olympic Breakfast was 10/10 and included sliced deep fried potato scallops. The best service station I've been to recently is the one at Tebay its independent and all home cooked food .
Mate I hope you see this comment, Because I just want to say you are doing great with the voice over idea it's genius, I hope your audience appreciate this tactical approach, as I can't stand food vloggers trying to talk with a mouth full, as I call them the 2 chew crew.. lol. Keep it up my friend and look forward to many more ... 👍🏻🙏🏻
I thought for a motorway services it didn’t look too bad. I’d eat it. And nice to see toast that actually looks like toast and not white bread that’s had a match waved under it.
Hello my friend, lovely to see you as always. Love your channel, this was an excellent review with great filming! For a Motorway Services this breakfast was very good, nice to see black pudding with this meal, although with 2 eggs & fresh tomato would made this even better. The price you paid was about right considering, as Motorway Services have always been expensive!! Thank you for sharing,take care 💜 XX
If you're down south, Gloucester services between 11A & 12 on the M5. Both are run by the same company, both are in an entirely different universe of motorway services.
This motorway service station is fantastic .im Australian. We do not have anything like this . The whole idea of this is sensible and mindful. The breakfast is good it meet the expectation .you have good staff in the kitchen and service youll get pride and constancy. 😊
Fantastic hell no at tenner that's a rip off bit pricey. And toast of breads aren't included WTF is that?? 🤦🏻 I know loads of pubs and restaurants that gives you bigger portions for less money and has better quality and toasts and black pudding, 3 hash browns, 2 bacon rashes, 2 sausages, mushrooms. And included with half cooked tomato. That's is just a pure scam!
Hey man! Nice to see you - brekky looked lovely! I reckon some places are pre-prepared , but some defo are cooked there and then - especially the independent places
Happy Sunday from Los Angeles! 🙋♀️ You need to come to the Southern states and head to a BucEees! Look up the vids about BucEees! Friends and I once took a road trip to Texas just to explore the BucEees closest to Calif! World's largest gas stations with an extensive food court where everything is scratch made. Your motorway services is microscopic compared to any BucEes location!
Always thought that plum tomatoes was the breakfast item when offered beans or tomatoes. But I'm talking about 30 years ago, when hash brown was not a thing on the breakfast plate. So glad that black pudding was on the Ultimate version of their breakfast. What surprised me most was the price, much cheaper than I thought. Not that i ever eat in Service Stations as they have a captive audience and can set prices however they like. For example the McDs and Greggs prices are way higher than the High Street stores.
Motorway services always add that bit extra price-wise. It was odd to have 3 sausages and only 1 egg instead of 2 sausages and 2 eggs. These places should let you change items if you don't like them. Good vlog to show what you get for your money. 👍
Honestly I prefer a tinned tomato rather than a fried one with a fry up. That brekky looks pretty good to me. I’m one of those who doesn’t do black pudding. Bit of a rip off charging extra for toast though… that’s crazy!
Hello, EIE That breakfast was huge, I can't imagine you ate it all. It looked pretty good and not a bad price. I agree with you. The tea and toast should have been included 😢Great video, thank you 😊😊
To be fair whenever I have a Full English from a motorway services - it’s usually spot on. Price is the off putting thing - especially when most services have a McDonald’s or Greggs type place where you can grab a much cheaper breakfast. But sometimes - when you still have a fair few miles to go or a full day in work - you just want a sit down breakfast 😋
Someone commented Little Chef and Tebay Services. On trips down to West Country, often stop at Tebay sister farm shop services on M5, Gloucester. Have stopped Tebay once in past. Two best by far services in Country IMO. Beef pie and chips at the Glos services outstanding as is the farm shop area produce. As for Little Chef sad we lost those outlets as mentioned their all round service was 10/10. Loved their sausage rings which were partially split around the ring. As for your breakfast EIE, looked quite appetising and for services prices although little expensive, seems the going rate Nationwide.
I second this. Would be very interesting to see if the quality varies over the course of a few independent greasy spoon places especially if the locations are spread apart not just all Leeds.
Can yo mention food temperature when you do some reviews, many buffet style items are often cold or lukewarm especially beans, Wetherspoon never do hot beans, and I rate venues much higher when they keep items hot, breakfast looks great but if not hot it woudl be a let down for me, great review channel love it and it mainly Yorkshire based so I can try out the venues
Act 1.at first glance your breakfast looked fine.A good crisp, clean, tidy plate of food. Gonna start with the toast.Nice colour & enough butter. Fried egg should be basted, the thin white shows an old egg. I don't mind tinned tomatoes Good looking bacon. Standard catering sausages. Mushrooms & baked beans OK Black Pudding, not one of my favourites £14.77 well over the top😢 If you're passing fine 😊Allan&Family
I am from the states. So what is this kind of place equivalent to in the United States? A truck stop complex? Or a turnpike toll road rest stop? Looks delicious!
A truck stop/gas station with fast food outlets on an interstate would be the equivalent. The M1 is a major motorway (highway) from London to Northern England.
Extra seem to operate the better, newer services across the UK....the breakfast looked good..... I think Beaconsfield and Cobham, also by Extra are big as well!
That was a small sized plate and those sausages were clearly cheap, catering sausages. I thought it would be far more expensive but for a motorway service station, it looked okay. Passable but not quality.
They should have a combo with nothing but black and white pudding. Plus some strawberry jam and clotted cream for thst dry toast. How about some fried bread?
It looked pretty middle of the road to me although the bacon and egg seemed above average. Grilled vine tomatoes, decent beans, farmhouse bread, more butter and another egg would help level it up.
I hope you have many marriage proposals. Your Channel is tops as you understand about food. My personal view is that the Brekkie is 6/10 as most processed, sorry. £10.50 is crazy low price.
I laughed out loud on this one, when you were describing how it wasn't as large as it looked I thought "like an anti-TARDIS" only for you to follow up with the reverse TARDIS line. I would have liked an additional egg with mine, but it looked pretty good other than that.
For motorway services this looks good. Do you eat bubble and squeak up north? I'm not totally convinced by american hash browns on full English. I'd prefer to see sautéed potatoes. Much more English. Agree with you about the eggs. One egg for an ultimate is a bit mean.
the food here looks good but when we stop this food out let is always closed i think that they should be open all day not just for the morning as a lot of people like my self love a big breakfast any time of day
for £11 almost did not seem bad for were it is. £14.77 means toast and drink were £3.77 at least it does not loon like it was under the heater too long and dried out. with the extra item black pudding a breakfast is normally more expensive. don't think I would add the toast since really it is a fairly cheap item I agree with the two eggs and the toast if it is meant to be the ultimate And you get to watch Judge Judy on the TV.
Motorway services used to be expensive. That has changed to a degree with fast food outlets like KFC and McDonald's. They appear to charge the same as their regular restaurants. £14.77 was steep for what you recived.
Was this worth it?
Comment Below 😀
I think worth it yes .excellent idea .
If thay keep up the good service they will take over sppons ,and Morrisons .🇦🇺👍☺
It looked ok ... but can you remember Little Chef Service Stations...their Olympic Breakfast was 10/10 and included sliced deep fried potato scallops.
The best service station I've been to recently is the one at Tebay its independent and all home cooked food .
I'll need to look out for it
Tebay and it's sister place at Gloucester services are excellent but very expensive
I loved little chef. Wasn't there also a place called "Happy Eater" which also did nice breakfasts?
Looked absolutely delicious always pay that bit extra at services though thanks for another great review and video mate 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Mate I hope you see this comment, Because I just want to say you are doing great with the voice over idea it's genius, I hope your audience appreciate this tactical approach, as I can't stand food vloggers trying to talk with a mouth full, as I call them the 2 chew crew.. lol.

Thanks 😀
I thought for a motorway services it didn’t look too bad. I’d eat it. And nice to see toast that actually looks like toast and not white bread that’s had a match waved under it.
You prefer burnt toast then? 😄
Ur channel is very underrated it’s so interesting I’m gonna watch most of your videos 😊
Hello my friend, lovely to see you as always. Love your channel, this was an excellent review with great filming!

The price you paid was about right considering, as Motorway Services have always been expensive!! Thank you for sharing,take care 💜 XX
"If the name is anything to go by, I'm looking forward to this." That made me laugh.
I just need to find a place called 'The Good Lunch' next lol
Looked great to me. I’m a big fan of a tinned plum tomato on my full English.
I'm a fan too now
If you're ever passing Tebay on the M6, give it a try - well worth it.
Excellent place 👍
Yep!!! Love it and always go to the butchers
If you're down south, Gloucester services between 11A & 12 on the M5. Both are run by the same company, both are in an entirely different universe of motorway services.
Isn't that like a premium farm shop? I've been to Gloucester, run by the same operator and it's really good!
Thankyou for this one and the Baltic . Take care.
Thanks for watching!
Love your channel, I always watch it with a knife and fork in my hands! (only joking)
Brilliant channel always with great content.
Nice video- Good addition on TH-cam. Yayyyy
Tebay might be worth a try if you want to travel that far. This brekkie looked good though, despite the price. Thank you xx
Thanks for the tip!
This motorway service station is fantastic .im Australian.
We do not have anything like this .
The whole idea of this is sensible and mindful.
The breakfast is good it meet the expectation .you have good staff in the kitchen and service youll get pride and constancy. 😊
This is a brand new service area, better than average...they are varying in quality across the UK....
Fantastic hell no at tenner that's a rip off bit pricey. And toast of breads aren't included WTF is that?? 🤦🏻
I know loads of pubs and restaurants that gives you bigger portions for less money and has better quality and toasts and black pudding, 3 hash browns, 2 bacon rashes, 2 sausages, mushrooms. And included with half cooked tomato.
That's is just a pure scam!
Hey man! Nice to see you - brekky looked lovely! I reckon some places are pre-prepared , but some defo are cooked there and then - especially the independent places
I agree, I think the independent places probably cook fresh
Looked surprisingly decent
Happy Sunday from Los Angeles! 🙋♀️

Happy my What? Brainwashed. Whats happy about this crumby system? Happy Breakfast, Happy Toilet break, Happy crossing the road. Goddddd.
In the UK they are less than 500 miles apart😅
The USA is slightly bigger than the UK to be fair. 😊
Plum tomato is traditional with an English breakie
That’s a breakfast that I’d gladly break my journey to enjoy.
Always thought that plum tomatoes was the breakfast item when offered beans or tomatoes. But I'm talking about 30 years ago, when hash brown was not a thing on the breakfast plate. So glad that black pudding was on the Ultimate version of their breakfast. What surprised me most was the price, much cheaper than I thought.
Not that i ever eat in Service Stations as they have a captive audience and can set prices however they like. For example the McDs and Greggs prices are way higher than the High Street stores.
I'd like to see you do this for a variety of service stations see which one is the best breakfast
Looks delicious. I love this channel. 😋
Thanks 😀
@@everydayimeating3407 when you say TARDIs are you fan of that the doctor
Very reasonable breakfast for a service station. I notice they had a Leon there too - I like it there. Good review!
I need to try them
Motorway services always add that bit extra price-wise. It was odd to have 3 sausages and only 1 egg instead of 2 sausages and 2 eggs. These places should let you change items if you don't like them. Good vlog to show what you get for your money. 👍
I would have been happy to change a sausage for an extra egg
Honestly I prefer a tinned tomato rather than a fried one with a fry up. That brekky looks pretty good to me. I’m one of those who doesn’t do black pudding. Bit of a rip off charging extra for toast though… that’s crazy!
Extra for toast was a surprise!
Hello, EIE
That breakfast was huge, I can't imagine you ate it all. It looked pretty good and not a bad price. I agree with you. The tea and toast should have been included 😢Great video, thank you 😊😊
I did eat it all 😋
Tebay in Cumbria do a belter a bit pricey but actually worth it
To be fair whenever I have a Full English from a motorway services - it’s usually spot on.
Price is the off putting thing - especially when most services have a McDonald’s or Greggs type place where you can grab a much cheaper breakfast.

The Extra logo reminds me of a broken Maccies logo!

Perhaps try some independent greasy spoon cafes for breakfasts. They can be pretty interesting.
I second this. Would be very interesting to see if the quality varies over the course of a few independent greasy spoon places especially if the locations are spread apart not just all Leeds.
I thought ot was worth it i would certainly order it great review.
The price wasn't too bad
Completely agree charge for toast was extra stingy!x
I'm suprised at how decent that was, and the value for money - Service Stations in the UK are known for being mega-expensive.
I know! I was pleasantly surprised
Everything except the plum tomato, for me it's got to be a grilled or fried fresh tomato.
Each to his own.
Pretty good for fast food I wouldn’t complain
Can yo mention food temperature when you do some reviews, many buffet style items are often cold or lukewarm especially beans, Wetherspoon never do hot beans, and I rate venues much higher when they keep items hot, breakfast looks great but if not hot it woudl be a let down for me, great review channel love it and it mainly Yorkshire based so I can try out the venues
Great channel 👍🏻👍🏻🍔🌭🌮🌯🥙🥗🥪
Thank you so much 👍
Gloucester services are the best along with Tebay, both owned and operated by a family company.
I'll have to check it out
Looked good and reasonable price for a motorway service station
Yes
Looked good for a motorway service station. 9/10
It was great for a motorway services
Another cracking video review, quick question, do you have or need permission to film in all the restaurants you visit...?
I didn't ask, I just went in and did it

I must admit my favourites service station is Gloucester services you can't beat it
I need to try it
Extra seem to operate the better, newer services across the UK....the breakfast looked good.....
I think Beaconsfield and Cobham, also by Extra are big as well!
It looked fine. Would be better to have a comparison of some sort though.
That was a small sized plate and those sausages were clearly cheap, catering sausages. I thought it would be far more expensive but for a motorway service station, it looked okay. Passable but not quality.
It loooks good considering it’s from a mway service 😜 I would be happy with that food
I think its good for a motorway services too 😀
They should have a combo with nothing but black and white pudding. Plus some strawberry jam and clotted cream for thst dry toast. How about some fried bread?
Amazed by the reaonable price , usually in the past motorway services emptied your wallet before you'd even turned the engine off 😂
The price wasn't too bad
Great video! …. Smithy
Thanks Glad you enjoyed it
It looked pretty middle of the road to me although the bacon and egg seemed above average. Grilled vine tomatoes, decent beans, farmhouse bread, more butter and another egg would help level it up.
I hope you have many marriage proposals. Your Channel is tops as you understand about food. My personal view is that the Brekkie is 6/10 as most processed, sorry. £10.50 is crazy low price.
The Sausageometer is always the quality test for me😂👍
They had some good ones
A very decent looking breakfast
I know!
Looks ok but needed the extra egg as you said . Some HP fruity sauce would of been great too.
They had sauces if you wanted them
A bit expensive but it's a pretty huge breakfast. Not bad I'd say.
I laughed out loud on this one, when you were describing how it wasn't as large as it looked I thought "like an anti-TARDIS" only for you to follow up with the reverse TARDIS line.
I would have liked an additional egg with mine, but it looked pretty good other than that.
Additional egg would have been pefect
I like cheaper sausages with my breakfast, herb sausages, are not made for breakfast meals.
The best motorway breakfast by far was the full moto
lol @ Judge Judy on a huge screen. Decent looking breakfast here
I didn't even notice lol
Cobham services, M25 is big.
For £10 that was pretty good for a motorway service station!
I agree!
Here’s a comment for ya: I just subscribed
For motorway services this looks good. Do you eat bubble and squeak up north? I'm not totally convinced by american hash browns on full English. I'd prefer to see sautéed potatoes. Much more English. Agree with you about the eggs. One egg for an ultimate is a bit mean.
Proper bubble and squeak or those discs of mashed potato with cabbage in them?
A reverse tardis...LOL!!!
Try Tebay Services breakfast
I don't think it looked too bad, I would have eaten it except for the mushrooms and black pudding which i don't like
Maybe they would have swapped but I didn't ask if you could
Skelton lake
looks big as most of it is the Ramada Hotel
the food here looks good but when we stop this food out let is always closed i think that they should be open all day not just for the morning as a lot of people like my self love a big breakfast any time of day
Got to be tinned toms on a breakfast.
for £11 almost did not seem bad for were it is. £14.77 means toast and drink were £3.77 at least it does not loon like it was under the heater too long and dried out.
with the extra item black pudding a breakfast is normally more expensive.
don't think I would add the toast since really it is a fairly cheap item
I agree with the two eggs and the toast if it is meant to be the ultimate
And you get to watch Judge Judy on the TV.
Looks fine. I’ve seen far worse at motorway services.
Me too!
For a motorway service cafe you got plenty looked quite nice but didn't look hot to me
You need to create the Ultimate Butty next time
I think three sausages is a bit over the top. Give me an extra egg instead please
I agree!
Heinz beans are vile so watery. Branston all the way
I always thought the toast would be included in the price of the breakfast. Stingy buggers.
I know!
You're lucky they didn't charge you for the bloody table and chairs as well.
Over a tenner for a £5 breakfast. And of course people pay it !
🥓🍳😋
20 minutes plus means they are cooked to order
I was surprised it looked good. But not the black pudding.take care.
The plate looked crowded a bigger plate would have improved the presentation
❤🎉
A bit too expensive for me…
Looked extremely dry and 3 times the price of the breakfasts I get regular.
They will eat anything 😂😂😂
I don't know why people eat at motorway services, they know they're going to get robbed. At least it looked edible.
Hash Browns, Scottish Breakfast.
Too expensive!
Decent breakfast but well over priced always there to rob you.
Absolutely not worth it!
Motorway services used to be expensive. That has changed to a degree with fast food outlets like KFC and McDonald's. They appear to charge the same as their regular restaurants. £14.77 was steep for what you recived.
A larger plate required. Doesn't look great piled up like that!
