Im a bit mystified that families go to a supermarket to eat their evening meal?
i guess i need to get up to speed with 21st century eating habits.
Been living in the very south of Germany for a while now and prices are pretty similar to where I lived in Sheffield for the usual Sunday cake and a brew stop (circa £5-£6), struggling to get hot breakfast type food early on a Sunday here though. However, a few weeks ago we did a longer loop into Switzerland and stopped at a cafe there - standard Americano brew equivalent to £9! Needless to say I didn't ask about cakes and quickly made my excuses and left sharpish!
I do miss proper bacon sani's on a Sunday... :0(

Get your order in at the cafe, do the weekly shop and by the time you've got through the till your meal is ready! We don't do it every week, but it makes a change.
my comparison meal is always beans on toast.
sub - £3 - like the old days
£3 - £4 - solid
£4 - £5 - bit steep
£5+ don't go back
I ordered a sausage sandwich on Sunday in a nice garden centre cafe (mill view east of oxford). Think it was £3.50 which seemed steep, but it turned up with 3 full sausages, propper ones too and freshly cooked not dried out in a serving tray all morning. That's a bargain round these parts!
Yeah that is a bit steep, so I would expect good quality. Local to Univeristy, trendy, good coffee, central Bristol is 4.60 for bacon or sausage butty or 5.00 for eggs on toast. Though it's 10.95 for the full English.
(Greasy spoon in the suburbs from 2.30 for a butty.)
