- Taste an Irish breakfast roll
- A richly garnished sandwich!
A breakfast roll is an Irish speciality that combines all the ingredients of breakfast in one loaf! Baguette or burger bun: it doesn’t matter… The idea behind this amazing sandwich is to eat quickly on the go! A meal generally served in the country’s snack bars, takeaways and even some fast-food outlets like Supermacs!
Taste an Irish breakfast roll
A richly garnished sandwich!
Breakfast Rolls sold in Ireland can vary from store to store, but they generally consist of a fried egg, Irish sausage, bacon, tomato and black and white pudding. Ingredients reminiscent of an Irish breakfast!
So you see, the Breakfast Roll is a way of eating an Irish Breakfast on the go, without having to sit down at the table. Irish schoolchildren are very fond of them, and eat them on their way to school.
Simple, fast and efficient, it allows you to feed yourself without wasting too much time. Everything goes into the sandwich, and the ingredients can easily be stacked on top of each other. Note that it can become complicated to eat if it’s too full, and if it has ingredients like tomato baked beans: you’ll be sure to get them all over you!
Expect to pay less than €4 for a decent Breakfast Roll in Ireland. The taste is simply delicious, if a little too heavy on the bread (but that’s the point of a sandwich, you might say).
Whatever the case, the Breakfast roll will enable you to start the day with a full belly, without having to spend 30 minutes at the table, over a hearty Irish breakfast. A nice alternative, but a little less charming than a real traditional Irish breakfast, where it’s nice to sit down and take your time!
