  • This London breakfast has to be in my TOP 3 - it is simply off the charts.
    The Regency Cafe between London Victoria & Pimlico serve the best breakfast. If you follow Darren John ‪@DarrenJohn‬ you will know it has to be quality every time.
    Top 3 breakfast I have had - just look at those eggs
    Service is fast & efficient and the food is hot when it's ready.
    Included in this video is a short tour of London Victoria, little big ben, Wicked the musical at the Apollo Theatre, Hamilton & Victoria Nova

      Thanks for the info Darren my boyfriend has his own channel- Warren Parkinson.. He climbs Munroe's & has built his own campervan called - Munro Mobile .. Has bought a GoPro 9 recently but format for editing his filming hasn't been as straight forward as Ion airpro he used before .. Kind regards 🤗 Mel

    my wife took me here a few years ago, she used to use it when she lived in London back in the 70s 80s and always said we should go and have a breakfast there, we did and my god was it good. loved everything about the place.

    I’ve been a couple times and it really is fantastic, also it was location to that classic Layer Cake scene! “ So, Mr Motrimer. Couldn’t spare us a few quid could you Morty??”

    This reminds me of all the cafes that used to exist in this country. Breakfast used to consist of many items, like you said but we used to boil the potatoes and let them cool. We would then cut them into cubes and fry them at a high temperature and call them saute potatoes. Hash browns are an American invention and lots of people complain about them. Many people can't fry eggs today and mostly they remain raw on top so it's nice to see them cooked properly for a change. I worked into St. Pancras Railway Station in my BR days but I can't even recognise that anymore except for the outside shots in videos on YT. It looks more like a shopping centre now. We used to have about a three hour turn around time before the return journey but we wouldn't buy food in London because we couldn't afford to. Concentrating at speed is tiring for the driver and dealing with crime all the way to London is the same for us Guards, so we'd get a few hours to recover before the return battle. One driver always used to say "Let hostilities commence." just before we set off.

    I’m actually loving how you had the best full English breakfast, and afterwards you showed the cast of Wicked on the advert, and it showed Gary Wilmot.

    The whole plate looked fantastic but I can't think of the last time I looked at a plate and it was the chips that really caught my eye. Hand cut and chipped & double cooked, they looked perfect for a chip butty.
