One thing I cannot stand is traditional greasy spoon cafes.
To me, I can think of nothing worse than sitting in a busy terraced building with a dirty beige "Jimmy's Caf' " sign on the front eating greasy thick-cut fatty bacon in cheap rolls with milky tea and an industrial-sized bottle of wholesaler ketchup on the counter.
I find the atmosphere of them very depressing and the food quality to be dire. Yet, it would seem that they're often rather well-patronised if ever I pass by... and I'd love to know what it is that people enjoy about it.
Do you like greasy spoon cafes? If you do, I'd love to know what you like about them. Please do leave a comment
Personally, I'd rather pop into Bills or Cote for brunch or something, but I'd prefer even a Tesco meal deal, or hunger, to a trip to a greasy spoon.
