Full English breakfast near Piccadilly station.

Yes

Well I'm not.

Is Wetherspoon's still a shout? Or any other recommendations? I'm over for the Newcastle game, and will be getting into the city centre around 9 that morning.

For something different to a full English, go down to Dishoom for a brekkie.

Spoons in The Printworks is epic value, loads of Breakfast choice and really decent...for early kick off games, it's fucking rammed.

Didn't know they had a place in the Printworks, only knew about the Piccadilly one. Thanks for that.

As much as a really hate Wetherspoons, they do actually do a decent breakfast.

A more independent option near-ish Piccadilly is Koffee Pot on Oldham St or Trof on Thomas St, both in the NQ.

I disagree. They used to do a decent breakfast but nowadays the bacon is like wafer thin ham and often fatty and undercooked. And the Cumberland sausages aren't as good a quality as they used to be. A good quality sausage defines a good English brekkie, IMO. Wethers ain't cheap and good value anymore, and often I've been served food luke warm.

I haven’t been in one for a couple of years to be fair.

I was surprised at how decent the brekkie was last time I went in one. Not surprised they’ve cheapened out though.

And I agree 100% on the importance of sausages!

heads up. There's about 5 Wetherspoons in town. I manage to avoid all of 'em.

They used to be hearty cheap and enjoyable and a cuppa was included in the price. I don't mind paying a bit more for good quality food but Wetherspoons has cheapened their quality and increased prices so I only eat breakfast in them for hunger and convenience nowadays.
