Not going to be a popular opinion BUT I’m not keen on bacon or beans. Not bothered about toast so I get the freedom breakfast and change bacon for sausage and beans for an extra egg, I end up with 3 eggs two hash browns tomato sausage and mushroom for 4.50. Sorts me right out for the day, total price with coffee 5.50

Can’t beat a spoons brekkie. But got to be large, with black pudding & added halloumi for a bit of a twist.

Sorry but shite. Green King ‘normal sized’ are £5.80 (give or take pence) that comes with black pudding. Given the drinks are probably more than spoons

Bacon is always a huge letdown at that place.

The beauty of a spoons fry comes in the consistency. I like to judge all my fryups based around the spoons benchmark “5/10”.

Had a spoons 8 minute walk from my place; suffice to say that the design of these plates has been seared into my mind forevermore

I always feel like they microwave the bacon.

Not a fan of Wetherspoons sausages, but the rest is ok, well the black pudding can be a bit dry too lol

If you’re buying on price alone then you’re doomed to get cheap-ass shit. Which, after all, is what ‘Spoons excels at.
But you asked what we think : I confess that a Spoons fry-up has its appeal with a sizeable enough hangover, but let’s not pretend that it isn’t a plate of low-rent shit. Spend more, eat better.

The beans and bacon are subpar. The hash browns are usually nice though

My brother had one yesterday and was sick within half hour. Maybe it was that, maybe it was the 3 Stella’s he had with it. We may never know.

With a pint of Guinness, it’s a solid hangover/comedown cure. Fuck all wrong with a “spoons” breakfast.

For its money, it’s an honest breakfast. Literally doesn’t try to mug you off. You know what you’re getting 🤷🏻♂️

I almost died eating their bacon the other day with how stringy it is. I’m not big on mushrooms and prefer scrambled to fried egg but it’s still okay ish

£6.88 you must be down south cheaper up north.
They are generally good, however I’ve never had beans on a spoons breakfast that were above room temperature.

When eating it I always think it could be worse but I could have spent more on it so it doesn’t dissappoint too much. The eggs benedict on the other hand I bad but I can’t help having everytime I am in that early.

I rate a spoons breakfast. I used to work in kitchen at spoons. Everything is cooked fresh. Only thing that gets microwaved is the beans and I’d do that at home anyway

I would honestly rather cook my own. A decent butchers and you can pick up the sausages, bacon and black pudding. Local shop for a tin of beans etc . Will taste way better and do your own fried bread 🤤

Bacon looks meh.
Where’s the black pudding?

Cook that bacon about 3x as long and get rid of the mushroom and we are in business

After a night of heavy drinking it may as well be a Gourmet Michelin star dinner.
Outside of that I won’t touch it.

Disgusting. Looks like shit IMHO.
My Sunday morning breakfast. Decent smoked back Bacon, chestnut mushrooms, Home cooked with locally made black pud & sausage. Branston beans. Obviously
Fuck off Tim Martin. Ya food is shit. Your bacon looks like repulsive.
Eating breakfast amongst early morning alcoholics is my idea of hell.

My partner and I do Wetherspoons breakfast on a Sunday morning 1-2 a month. It’s definitely cheaper than this down here. We like it. Is it the very best quality? No. Does it hit the spot? Definitely.

The veggie fry up is legitimately great.
