Oh really?[edit]

This article seems to be a complete fiction. I've lived in the UK all my life and I've never seen anywhere that will give you more than a "doubler" or - very occassionally - a "tripler" (ie two or three seperate fillings). I've certainly never heard of any roll that could even contain the massive quantities of fried goods mentioned in the article!!!

Usually a fried egg with runny yolk is one of the fillings in a doubler - which means the whole thing makes a terrible mess when you bite into it. The "breakfast rolls" you get from the supermarkets are the rolls themselves - with no filling. 195.153.45.54 (talk) 13:41, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Im from Wales, a breakfast roll at minimum contains bacon, sausage and egg, though that's a miserable version. Normally, mushrooms, black pudding and even a hash brown are added too. 2A02:C7C:BD43:6000:E4D6:CE46:3393:30E9 (talk) 13:32, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was gaming last night and everyone else in the team was English, from various parts of England. They had all heard of a full breakfast roll, though some called it a breakfast barm. They found it hilarious that any English person wouldnt have heard of a breakfast roll. 2A02:C7C:BD43:6000:D004:176B:47A7:17A8 (talk) 11:40, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should probably say just Ireland. Because here a breakfast roll really does contain basically every concievable fried food! 83.147.141.147 (talk) 12:27, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Usually supermarkets/convenience stores/garages/catering here in Ireland, in addition to the deli counter, will have a hot counter which particularly in the morning has a variety of breakfast items that you can add to your roll. Some places just allow you as many fillings as you want (i.e. from the breakfast selection - which might only be 3/4 options), others have price brackets (e.g. 3 items, 4 items or 5 items at different prices). The rolls here are almost always demi-baguettes (Cuisine-de-France or other in-store part-baked).

I don't know that the breakfast roll is such a big deal in the UK. Here in Ireland motorway service areas are being planned for the first time, and one stipulation is that they serve the breakfast roll (i.e. to ensure in-store part-baked bread is available, and hot food) - although they will have to have healthy options too.

I'd agree. Although I'm originally from Scotland, I've lived all over the UK (I was in the Army). I've never heard the term 'breakfast roll'. Not once. From what I've read this might be a Republic of Ireland thing. Greensalad82 (talk) 23:55, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've been over the UK, except for Scotland. I've been eating breakfast rolls for 30 years. Try looking around working areas like industrial estates. 2A02:C7C:BD43:6000:E4D6:CE46:3393:30E9 (talk) 13:34, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm from and live in Scotland, and the 'hangover cure' thing seems copied from some jocular article rather than something particularly true. Scatterkeir (talk) 23:28, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Photo not relevant[edit]

The photo in the current version of the article has nothing to do with the breakfast roll described, it's a "Vegetarian morningstar sausage with organic free-range egg and cheese on a roll." Meltyman (talk) 06:29, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I'm going to go get a breakfast roll now. I'll take a picture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.76.66.224 (talk) 18:35, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Irish?[edit]

I'm from Wales, I've also lived in Southern and Northern England and visited Ireland. I've seen a breakfast roll in all these places. In Wales every industrial area has at least one breakfast roll van and the rolls have everything in them. I've no idea what other commentators here are on about. 2A02:C7F:8A02:D300:90:CDDE:1504:5BA0 (talk) 14:55, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
