In the United Kingdom, greasy spoons are generally called cafes, which in England is often colloquially referred to as a "caff". Not all cafés are greasy spoons, however.
The typical greasy spoon serves mainly fried or grilled food, such as fried eggs, bacon, black pudding, bubble and squeak, burgers, sausages, mushrooms and chips. These are often accompanied by baked beans, cooked tomatoes, and fried bread. Hot and cold sandwiches are also often available, the bacon or sausage butty being particularly popular. The main drink in British greasy spoons is usually tea; often the only coffee available will be instant. British greasy spoons will sometimes also offer bread and butter pudding, apple crumble and rhubarb crumble.
