Mr Egg

Mr Egg - Smegg!!

Now then, I used to go here most Saturdays to try and soak up all the booze from the Friday night before. It was then THE place to get the best fry up in the city - but now, well - It's changed owners and leaves alot to be desired.

Not the same standard of sausage, the eggs are over cooked and the whole place could do with a lick of paint.

NOT happy... my stomach was abit dodgy for a few days after too....

On a brighter note - the material egg on the ceiling is still there!!

It's been sometime since I last visited Mr Egg. You used to be able to get anything 'Eggy' for £1.50... Egg and Chips... Sausage and Egg... Egg sarnies (get the idea). Well they've changed owners now, but the menu is mostly the same. It's abit like an old style greasy spoon inside now. Sadly it's not as good as it used to be. I get the feeling they're trying to carry on the famous name of Mr Egg - but they've cut back on the quality. The staff were really friendly though, and for those who remember it the ceiling egg is still there. For those who have no idea what I'm talking about then you'd better go take a look!

The infamous Mr Egg is a vital stop if you have been out round the Arcadian till the early hours and you fancy a bite. With the line "Eat like a Queen" and the huge egg on the ceiling this is the place every brummie knows and everyone who has been to Birmingham should know. If you fancy anything you can imagine eating with Egg...this is the place to come !

Egg, Egg, Egg Lovely Egg, Wonderful Egg

Right, think of Monty Python's famous "Spam" song, now replace the word "Spam" with "Egg" and you'll have a good idea of what this place is all about.

Mr Egg is a landmark cafe located in central Birmingham. Running a "you can have anything you want... so long as it's egg" menu policy, it is rightly famed for its er, eggs.

The food is average cafe fayre but, rather like collecting T-shirts from Hard Rock cafe's in the early 90s, if you go to Birmingham you simply have to visit Mr Egg for an egg butty and stewed tea.

I'm reassured to see that it's still in business every time I visit Brum. Rumour has it that were it ever to close down the whole of Birmingham would implode into a big crunch singularity (and no one wants that now do they).

Long live Mr Egg.
