Wimpy all the way! Also Wimpy has always been a Diner, never a "fast food restaurant". Superior in every way and value for money. Wish I still had one near me. Spent my youth there after the pictures!
I think it varies a lot on location. Wimpy for a long time was in places like bowling alleys as well as their more traditional sit-down restaurants, but they primarily serve burgers these days which is very much a fast-food thing. Sadly they don't seem to be doing very well these days, with many locations closing.
@@mattl_ Yum Foods bought all the Wimpy's except for a a few and turned them into Burger Kings in a deal. The original owners of Wimpy still operate the few left.
According to Wikipedia Wimpy is a fast-food chain that was founded in the United States. There is a restaurant near me which has been there since the 80's. Not eaten there since the early 90's might have to try it again!
Geez haven’t been to Wimpy since the 1970’s. They all but disappeared in many areas. Used to love their beef burger and chips (as in you got burger patties and chips on a plate - not a bun). And their Knickbocker Glory (ice cream sundae in a tall glass).
If you like hot dogs I would seriously recommend trying wimpys bender in a bun. Absolutely delicious. And their special sauce is amazingly good too. @@everydayimeating3407
i use to work for a butchers supply , every morning we went upstairs for breakfast which consisted of 4 sausages 2 eggs 4 rashers of bacon beans and tomatoes { generous portions as well } as much toast as you wanted and tea or coffee , all for 30 pence a day
Wimpy just for me aswell but both looked delicious thanks for another great video mate keep it up hopefully some more £50 challenges in the pipeline aswell 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hello, EIE Whimpy looked amazing.A full plate of delicious goodies. Frankie and Benny's were not presented well. I was not amazed by anything Whimpy wins Thanks for a great video😊😊
I'm suprised yoare not familar with the Wimpey chain - it's older than McD's here in the UK and they remained a "diner" rather than a fast-food place over all these years. I'd encourage you to go back there and try the Main Menu as their burgers & grills are brilliant!
From the perspective of a long-time retail worker, at 0:29, when you pushed in the glass door, and not the handle, all I could think is, “Someone's gonna have to clean that door”.
I always loved Wimpy Meals & this Breakfast was lovely, perfect eggs, sausage & bacon & I love grilled/fried tomato & mushrooms- good serving of baked beans, with black pudding this Breakfast would have been perfect! Frankie & Benny's , lovely cup of Yorkshire tea, for the most part a nice Breakfast but what let this down was the amount of baked beans. Wimpy is the winner for me! So enjoy your reviews, well presented & excellent as always! Take care 💜
Wimpys definitely has this one. I'm surprised with F & B looking like they stiffed you on the baked beans and bacon, especially after they did so well with the calzone. I appreciate that you don't include the sound of you chewing in your vids as hearing people chew sets my teeth on edge. Your vids are a fun watch as well.
Hi from Los Angeles! Classic sunny, warm, LA weather today! As an American (where tots originated from)... Those were Not proper Tots. You got potato puffs. Real tots are actually hash brown nuggets. "Ore Ida" brand's frozen "Tater Tots" being the original and still the best. Wimpy gets my vote. The breakfast looked more substantial and better prepared. I also don't see F&B's point of serving two forms of potato, especially those "Imposter tots 🤣".
@@everydayimeating3407 I know you've got the McCain brand in the UK. If you have McCain's Tasty Taters, they are a 95% accurate version. Slightly softer than Ore Ida's. If can get them, try making the Tater Tot casserole which is a dinner time staple with many US families. You can watch vids on how to make it on this platform
That's one of those where there's certain items I would pick off one and certain items off the other. Sausages and bacon off Wimpy and mushrooms, potatoes and toast off F & B (plus black pudding which you didn't get at Wimpy). Both eggs and tomatoes looked good (not bothered about beans so portion size doesn't really matter to me).
Wimpy takes the trophy based on appearance, price and service. I like my hashbrowns incinerated. Theirs are superior to F&B's tater tots. The absence of black pudding is another plus in Wimpy's favor IMO. Enjoy watching your videos. It seems the British cuisine has greatly improved in the 25 years since I last visited. The British Restaurant Association owes you an award.
Both breakfasts looked nice. Do any English restaurants offer old-fashioned bubble and squeak with their breakfasts? It would be a nice change to see this instead of American hash browns or tater tots.
The Wimpy name comes from the Popeye cartoon and it has always been a table service type of place. I remember them as a boy but they seemed to die out as I got older. Good to see that they are coming back!
Wow, what a blast from the past.Wimpy 70yrs old this year,and largely forgotten for the last 10 to 15 years. Then all of a sudden two new reviews in a weeks Gary Eats now your goodself.You could never really call them a fast food restaurant, I've always thought more American Diner.Standard catering sausages, maybe deep fried ( hard to get the all round colour in a pan or under the grill)Eggs could have been basted,personal choice 😊Bacon,beans & mushrooms all up to par. Hash Browns, not sure if cooked at to higher temperature or dirty oil.Toast,with enough butter, pot of tea.Brilliant Cost£12.45 bargain F&B's,visually not as good as Wimpy's. Sausages looked more chipolatas than banger😢Bacon,a tadge greasy,and cooked on a dirty griddle along side the 1/2 tomato.Mushrooms fried well.baked beans ( a child's portion?)Black Pudding not for me thanks. " tater tots " childhood memories 😊❤ Toast,well if you want to call warm uncooked bread toast. Pet peeve, crammed on the side of the plate 😮😮😮 So,making your mind up time. It's just got to be J.Wellington Wimpy ( friend of Popeye's😊) Cheers 🥂 Allan&Family
Everydayimeating a noisy question do you cause u film 2 meals in a vid a day so do u eat them on the same day or different days and remember which is the best one I have an idea 4 you lol it could save u money instead of eating out I'm not saying you have to do it tho I'm not telling you what to do it be interesting what about cooking 2 meals the same but a budget vs a brand one or supermarket cheapest vs the next cheapest in a same supermarket like example sainsbury's the cheapest one sainsbury's value vs next price up 👍
You should try a Chaiwala English Breakfast and compare it to a Weatherspoons. Before anyone says its a mismatch, Weathespoons is the cheapest English Breakfast I've ever had at £2.95, so value is a factor
I used to work in a wimpy bar back in the 70’s. They have always been a “ diner “ and not a fast food outlet. You don’t go there for a takeaway. Food is not cooked in advance, so each order is freshly made. Definitely Wimpy comes out on top.
Fun Facts: Frankie & Benny's is a British chain with 90 branches in the Divided Kingdom, 35 of which are closing due to the wonderful cost of living crisis.
F&B teapot & cup way better, but for the grub definitely Wimpy. As a kid, Wimpy was amazing. Coincidentally, there's one not so far from where I've lived for the past few years, but yet to try it. No harm once in a while in indulge in a big cooked breakkie 😋
Yes, agree. Wimpy - it looked better. Also better value for money. Plus table side service. I used to eat at Wimpy back in the 1970s. And it was good then, so I guess they know what they're doing. And they are still in business.
Although the Frankie & Bennys looked OK I am not a huge fan of the green inside the cup. Wimpy used to be a common name in the high street and we all used to go there ,can't remember what the food was like, and sadly a lot disappeard , but I have heard of a recent resurgence of the name and every one seems to think it is quite good! So come on Wimpey make the food good and as healthy as possible ,while trying to keep the price acceptable to most customers , and get that British icon back where it should be !
PS. Both breakfasts looked delicious so much so my only option is to get some bacon, sausages out my freezer and do my own tomorrow. I'd happily eat both those you reviewed but like you, the Wimpy shaded it for me just a real shame there is no such establishment anywhere close to me.
Wimpy bars have being around since the 1970 ! Could be earlier then that love the burgers we travel to that one especially not a lot of wimpys open now !
The original Wimpy is an institution and the food is still the same as it was years ago which is a plus for me. A shame that there are so few restaurants left in the UK as I think they would still be a hit in many cities if they decided to refranchise or open again. The older generation like me, like them so maybe that is a potential issue as most franchise operations look to growth and youth but I think it would be a resounding success as the demographic is still there and the food tastes great. I have a Wimpy here where i live abroad and its a completely different burger and operation, a different brand and taste, and although it's still really good, it's not the same, and the character of the original Wimpy should never be lost, especially in the UK.
Omg where is that wimpy I didn't know they were still going out one in Liverpool went about 30 years ago 😮....I have written this comment before finishing the video as in my opinion on looks alone its wimpy as the winner .😊
A lot of food reviewers here on UA-cam use Heinz as the benchmark for baked beans . But today Heinz are no longer the best baked beans they are in all honesty one of the poorest baked beans even being surpassed by some supermarket home branded beans. I think as a benchmark Branston beans is a good choice. I’m a small convenience store owner and I sell Branston beans over Heinz 2 to 1 and some weeks 3 to 1
Great reviews for both places. Try The Palace cafe on Buckingham palace road in London ( or rather, dont ) if you want a contrast of good and er well , evil 😮
Wimpy for me! Although hash browns shouldn't be anywhere near an English Breakfast. The F&B's looked bloody awful. Anaemic toast and cheap looking bacon. Presented all wrong. Wish we had a Wimpy near us.
100% Wimpy any time much better than most other fast food places its more like a proper cafe always has been. Wimpy was similar too the Golden Egg restaurant chain.
Correct but personally I think Burger King are more Wimpy than Wimpy , their burgers look like the real deal whereas Wimpy don't look as good these days.
@@geebee6737 Not correct at all, Grand metropolitan as they were at the time owned the rights to Burger King in the Uk but growth was less than expected and by 1988 there were only 12 in the Uk and around 300-350 Wimpys which were a mix of both table and counter service. Grand Metropolitan then bought Wimpy and converted the counter service (which were wimpy company owned) to burger kings. The table service ones were subject to a management buyout as well as being largely franchised. I’m South Africa Famous brands were the biggest franchisees and eventually bought the parent company, selling off any remaining uk company owned table service restaurants. Nowadays they still own wimpy but all the uk restaurants are franchises. Basically Wimpy would have probably still been quite big if Grand metropolitan hadn’t decided the global name of BK was what they wanted.
As well as the difference of doing table service Wimpy serve all their meals including burgers on real plates with real cutlery. Most of the other places serve them in polystyrene boxes which I hate.
Well they both looked good but, for value for money, I'm going to my favourite greasy spoon cafe - great food at a reasonable price. I love Wimpy burgers though!
I think they both look good, it would be better if U could cut the sausage/hash brown rather than spearing with the fork. You are informative about flavours so good for that......
I stopped using the wimpy thousands of years ago when they stopped selling the unbeatable Wimpy Kingsize burger with the best chips followed by a brown derby . The day they did that is the day they stole my childhood !
Even still Ben, rather harsh not to go in there again because of the Wimpy Kingsize Burger! You could just orde the: Triple Wimpy Burger instead. And they obviously still do one of my fav chips ever and obviously still have the Brown Derby!!!! Sowhat you waiting for??????????????
@@Martin-rh7mf Very long time ago, sure your diet has changed but everything in moderation as they say-and some of i is really healthy like the chargrilled chicken burger etc.
Seriously bad excuses for "sausages" at both places, and the filthy state of the menu at the second joint would make me get up and leave immediately. It's even laminated, which means a quick wipe would clean off the months of grease and grime that had accumulated.
Definitely wimpy looks lot better and cooked looks nice because frankie & benny’s toast didn’t look toasted and sausages don’t look good and everything on it
Which one did you prefer?
Comment Below 😀
Wimpy
How come you're not about 30 stone by now?😂 I always prefer fried bread with a breakfast 😋
Wimpy all the way! Also Wimpy has always been a Diner, never a "fast food restaurant". Superior in every way and value for money. Wish I still had one near me. Spent my youth there after the pictures!

That Wimpy breakfast was pretty decent. Honestly impressive for a fast food chain. Everything looked really good on it!
I know! I never expected it from a fast food chain. I thought they were another McDonalds or Burger King
Wimpy very visually appealing and made with love.. F&B throw it on the plate and get it out😂.. Great vid❤
That grillman at Wimpy needs a raise - everything was on point.
Wimpy looked the nicer one of the two. Thanks for the review xx

I hope so too, I'll get planning!
@@everydayimeating3407 Yes please!
Wimpy is a great Suprise and would be my choice and could not fault it by the look....Thanks.
I was pleasantly surprised too
That wimpy one looked great! Will have to give them a chance next time I’m near one and need a breakfast !
You should!
I would have gone for the Wimpy too. I'll have to check this out sometime.
Its worth it for sure
Hello, EIE
Whimpy looked amazing.A full plate of delicious goodies. Frankie and Benny's were not presented well. I was not amazed by anything
Whimpy wins
Thanks for a great video😊😊
Wimpy hands down but there's still room for improvement by including a black pudding or even offering it up as an alternative to the hash browns.
Adding a black pudding would have topped it off!
I'm suprised yoare not familar with the Wimpey chain - it's older than McD's here in the UK and they remained a "diner" rather than a fast-food place over all these years. I'd encourage you to go back there and try the Main Menu as their burgers & grills are brilliant!

Yes 👏 Wimpy excellent 👍 but the other presentation was chucked on 😮 and, where’s the beans! 😜 not many!

Wimpy is the best. You should have tried their bendy Frankfurter instead of standard sausages. They go better with breakfast
I will have to try more foods next time!
Wimpy all day for me!! Thought there’s looked really decent. Top video …. Smithy
I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was

Your surprise at the beginning was very funny.
Its the first ever Wimpy I've been to lol
Do you film each meal on the same day? Or do you do each on a different day? Wimpys looks sooo good 😍😍
Sometimes I do, it depends on the meal
I never go out to eat but great review again as always 😊
Everydayimeating a noisy question do you cause u film 2 meals in a vid a day so do u eat them on the same day or different days and remember which is the best one

The wimpy because it looked much nicer in presentation and that toast from F and B didn't even look toasted.
The Wimpy breakfast looked supreme.
Wimpy bars have being around since the 1970 ! Could be earlier then that love the burgers we travel to that one especially not a lot of wimpys open now !
Sausage underdone, toast underdone, only one pat of flora at F&B. Good to see black pudding at F&B. Wimpy wins for me hands down.
I must admit also being very surprised by the Wimpy breakfast- good value and good variety, only missing a black pudding to make it excellent 😊
I was surprised too, great value I agree
Wimpy's was by far the nicer looking breakfast. Did they cook the toast in a warm breeze in F&Bs?
Wimpy wins that hands down imho, soon as I saw the F&B offering the Wimpy one looked significantly better.
Great vid Richard
My names not Richard lol
The original Wimpy is an institution and the food is still the same as it was years ago which is a plus for me.

This one was in Huddersfield, but theres not many around
A lot of food reviewers here on UA-cam use Heinz as the benchmark for baked beans . But today Heinz are no longer the best baked beans they are in all honesty one of the poorest baked beans even being surpassed by some supermarket home branded beans. I think as a benchmark Branston beans is a good choice. I’m a small convenience store owner and I sell Branston beans over Heinz 2 to 1 and some weeks 3 to 1
Interesting, I'm guessing that your Branstons are a bit cheaper than your Heinz which could be relevant.
❤wimpy all the way.
F& B if they served me that Flora I would have thrown it back at them.
For the nicer Venue it is F&B but for the plates I think Wimpy is the clear winner. The F&B breakfast didn't look that appealing for me.
Great reviews for both places. Try The Palace cafe on Buckingham palace road in London ( or rather, dont ) if you want a contrast of good and er well , evil 😮
At 1:13, the menu does note that they are indeed, Heinz Beans.
Its a shame, these places rarely offer 'fried bread'😋
I think I've only ever seen it once lol
Wimpy for me! Although hash browns shouldn't be anywhere near an English Breakfast. The F&B's looked bloody awful. Anaemic toast and cheap looking bacon. Presented all wrong. Wish we had a Wimpy near us.
If you turn the fork over instead of pushing up on the back of the fork with your knife you could probably hold more and it will hold it.
100% Wimpy any time much better than most other fast food places its more like a proper cafe always has been. Wimpy was similar too the Golden Egg restaurant chain.
Wimpy 👍
Wimpy looks much better.
The best beans are Branston. You should know that!
I’m sure Wimpy is now owned by Burger King.
Correct but personally I think Burger King are more Wimpy than Wimpy , their burgers look like the real deal whereas Wimpy don't look as good these days.

you need to try wimpy's burgers soon, they are really good quality
I agree!
Wimpy! Only got half pot of beans on the f and b. Breakers
Got got be Wimpy, good old fashioned diner
Wimpy for me definitely it looked so much nicer frankie and bennys didn't look nice at all

Not bad a wimpy since I was a kid. There breakfast look lovely.
It was a great breakfast
Well they both looked good but, for value for money, I'm going to my favourite greasy spoon cafe - great food at a reasonable price. I love Wimpy burgers though!
I used to love the wimpy bars best burger ever
The beans must be Heinz, as they are listed as such on the menu. They would be leaving themselves open to law suits and prosecution, if they weren't.
Thought wimpy closed long time ago
Its still open 😀
I think they both look good, it would be better if U could cut the sausage/hash brown rather than spearing with the fork. You are informative about flavours so good for that......
I stopped using the wimpy thousands of years ago when they stopped selling the unbeatable Wimpy Kingsize burger with the best chips followed by a brown derby . The day they did that is the day they stole my childhood !
Even still Ben, rather harsh not to go in there again because of the Wimpy Kingsize Burger!
You could just orde the: Triple Wimpy Burger instead. And they obviously still do one of my fav chips ever and obviously still have the Brown Derby!!!!
Sowhat you waiting for??????????????
The brown Derby... I remember those as a kid. It was such a treat to go to the Wimpy. Loved it.
@@Martin-rh7mf When did you last hav a Wimpy then, and why haven't you been back since??
Maybe four decades ago, as a child. It doesn't appeal to me now. My diet is different, but I appreciate the nostalgia.
@@Martin-rh7mf Very long time ago, sure your diet has changed but everything in moderation as they say-and some of i is really healthy like the chargrilled chicken burger etc.
Seriously bad excuses for "sausages" at both places, and the filthy state of the menu at the second joint would make me get up and leave immediately. It's even laminated, which means a quick wipe would clean off the months of grease and grime that had accumulated.
Wimpy.😯😍😋
Me too, It was delicious!
You should go back to the Wimpy and have a quarter pounder with chips with your favorite drink. A Wimpy is great.
I think I will have to
Looks like Huddersfield.
It is! 😀
Definitely Wimpy wins it for me.
Wimpy looked great. F and b’s a plate covered in grease 🤢urghh
Definitely wimpy looks lot better and cooked looks nice because frankie & benny’s toast didn’t look toasted and sausages don’t look good and everything on it
The sausages were definitely better at Wimpy
Always found F & B expensive for what it is
