What's the most expensive or best breakfast you can get in the UK?
I guess the Ritz at ￡35 must be the most expensive, but is it the best?
I once had breakfast at Tylney Hall, a five star hotel in Hampshire for ￡16 which was amazing - button mushrooms, porrage, toast with marmalade, corn flakes, eggs, bacon, sausages, tea. mmmmm perfect.
Answers:

A fry up down the Blinkin' Owl cafe on the 127 as Jaimie Oliver would say "Pucker"
The world's most expensive breakfast
Yesy, yes, we all know that British Rail Midland Mainline food is vastly over-priced, but this really takes the chocolate croissant. A London Weekend Return ticket in First Class maybe a wallet-busting ￡58.00 but, if you fancy the tempting full English or continental breakfast, it shoots up to a whopping ￡282.00. So, if my math is correct, that's a ￡224.00 meal, heated in the on-board microwave. And this is per person, not for your entire family. Or put another way, ten people could breakfast at The Ritz, and you'd still have money left for the bus fair home.
******************************...
The Ritz in London has won the prize for the most expensive cooked hotel breakfast in the UK.
According to consumer magazine Which?, the luxurious Ritz Hotel charges a staggering ￡30 for a cooked breakfast.
The Lanesborough is the second most expensive, charging ￡28.50, followed by Mandarin Oriental (￡28) at number three and Brown's Hotel (￡27) at number four.
All four hotels are located in the English capital, London.
The Ritz told Which? Good Food Guide?: "We don’t think our prices differ from other London hotels of a similar quality.
"You get a full selection from the buffet as well as a cooked breakfast and these items are going to be more expensive than in other hotels."
Brown's Hotel justified its prices, saying: "We pitch our prices where we feel our competitors are as well."
But experts have criticised the prices charged for such a straightforward meal.
Andy Turvil, editor of the Which? Good Food Guide, said: "Lunch or dinner might have "value" added by the chef.
"But breakfast is a case of cooking up the ingredients, however well sourced they might be."
The best I've had have all been in Scottish B&Bs. You name it, it's been on the plate, inc. scotch pancakes, kippers, black pudding plus all the usual stuff...
A full Scottish breakfast - with haggis, Aberdeen Angus beef sausages, black pudding, wild mushrooms ete etc
You don't necessarily have to pay a lot - you can pay for posh surroundings but it doesn't make the food any better. Some Band B's to breakfasts that are very hard to beat and they are made for you personally which always adds to the flavour.
I'm hungry now!
The George Hotel in Hathersage near Sheffield, does a really nice breakfast, my family eat there on specail occasions (18th birthdays etc.) It's also quite pricy but worth every penny!
