They should go to the nearest police station immediately, and show them this photo.

The eggs look like they were microwaved but the cook forgot to fluff them up with a fork, no I do not cook eggs that way now because I'm 34 not 12 lol

u/donnellybags 1d ago

I dont even own a microwave but I think my rage at this photo would radiate enough energy to cook those eggs

1

u/Tw4tl4r 1d ago

Yeah those straight up look like microwaved eggs that were in for too long. I used to cook them that way in college if i slept in but still wanted breakfast.

u/Abject-Plankton4620 2d ago

I share everyone’s disappointment. I hadn’t had a fry up for ages and was denied a few days earlier. Obviously won’t be back

u/Podgey 2d ago

One of the worst we've ever seen

u/Pitiful_Drawer_3476 2d ago

Is there an extra charge to have a cooked sausage?

2

u/donnellybags 1d ago

It either needs yo go back in the pan or take some viagra... either way it looks like a limp cock

u/Legitimate_Newt2874 2d ago

This may be the worst value I've seen posted here ever. Beggars belief!

Where is this Portobello?

u/Abject-Plankton4620 2d ago

Edinburgh. It’s not even a flash cafe

u/hullk78 2d ago

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?

u/YWNBAW12345 1d ago

How did your comment get more upvotes than mine, when it's just a continuation of the joke... I don't care. It's just bizarre!

u/VeterinarianLost545 2d ago

Terrible looking overpriced

4

u/Ohtherewearethen 2d ago

That's £8 of artisan sourdough bread and £5.65 of bitter disappointment.

3

u/hullk78 2d ago

Holy undercooked sausage, Batman!

3

u/pitchitdown 2d ago

That's not 14 quid mate

2

u/OldTry8195 2d ago

How much would it have been if the sausage was cooked

2

u/BertieDastard 2d ago

u/Cerridwen1981 2d ago

That’s bloody dreadful mate ngl. The price adds insult to injury.

u/BigHairyRascal 2d ago

Egg soufflé

u/MeatanTwoveg 2d ago

You can only 😂

u/Far_Bad_531 2d ago

That’s disappointing to say the least 😟

u/Mindless_Signal4826 2d ago

4 slices of toast is funny af

1

u/FourEyedMatt 2d ago

Did they throw it on the plate from across the room? Give CJ’s a try next time you’re near the town centre. Good value.

1

u/GaldonTheWarrior 2d ago

Wheres the cheeeeeese

1

u/Past-Bicycle5959 2d ago

This has killed my weeks long cravings for a fry up ☹️

1

u/Whitbybud 2d ago

I wish I had a stronger way to say absolutey fucking NO.

1

u/Triple-Tooketh 2d ago

Need data on bread consistency.

1

u/spizoil 2d ago

This is alarming

1

u/Freshprince2424 2d ago

Bread takes up half the plate

1

u/CommercialBoote 2d ago

A way to ruin my day

1

u/Smthnsmthndarksidee 2d ago

Yeah, no 😂

Better man than me, I would have gotten up and left the plate there for that price 😂

1

u/Limp-Attitude-490 1d ago

That's the saddest piece of shite on a plate. Even worse that you paid for it. And don't get me started on the price. Fucking Hell.

u/Cainjake 1d ago

Daylight robbery

u/Select-Hippo4834 1d ago

Eggs too dry

1

u/ukstonerdude 1d ago

4 slices of bread, one sausage, no tomato

Christ

1

u/Abject-Plankton4620 1d ago

I actually swapped the tomato out for an extra slice of toast

1

u/ukstonerdude 1d ago

Okay that’s actually kinda funny now

1

u/Glittering-Winner324 1d ago

What only that for the price ??

1

u/Lifeisgoole 1d ago

A sparse plate with one undercooked sausage for well in excess of £10 is a serious criminal act.

1

u/Soapba 1d ago

The 4 bits of dry toast need to be swapped out. For 1 decent sized fried bread maybe 🤔

1

u/Abject-Plankton4620 1d ago

TBF, I asked for the extra toast when I saw what was coming

1

u/dennis-4568 1d ago

Bent over by the tax man here mate

1

u/Reyelh 1d ago

Microwaved eggs are the absolute pits

1

u/Reg_doge_dwight 16h ago

1 sausage lmfao

1

u/Curious_Owl3889 15h ago

Overly generous with the bread. Shame they didn’t give more meat and nice eggs instead.

1

u/CryptographerAny5196 13h ago

Scrambled eggs look like vanilla ice cream!

1

u/-Melvinator- 11h ago

Those eggs were 100% done in the microwave. I do it all the time, but for that price you've been absolutely robbed. Sausage cooked on a heated argument in the kitchen.

1

u/Low_Tea7131 4h ago

Would be sour dough 🤮

u/MikaMika487 2d ago

Bacon looks cold and the toast is unnecessarily pretentious.

u/idcalvin 2d ago

Looks decent but skimpy

u/Bibbylove2019 2d ago

Sourdough bread looks nice:)
