The ‘full English breakfast’ is taking an inflation hit

The World

It’s not a light breakfast choice. The full English breakfast, as it’s known, is a one-plate cornucopia of meats and more: bacon, sausage, eggs, grilled mushrooms and tomato, baked beans, toast and more sausage. Londoners love it. But the dish is getting more and more pricey, just like a lot of things these days. Some restaurants are finding it harder to keep on the menu, as reporter Leo Hornak explains from London.
