Meals in England – a guide for visitors
Meals and Snacks
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are the three main meals. A lot of workers have a 10-
minute break in the morning (one name for this is ‘elevenses’) when they stop work to
enjoy a cup of tea (or coffee) with a biscuit. They have a similar break for a drink and a
snack in the afternoon. Many hotels and restaurants in England serve ‘afternoon tea’
between 2–5 p.m. This is a light meal of tea, sandwiches, and cakes and it’s very
popular with shoppers and tourists.
Breakfast
A traditional full English breakfast is what many hotels serve to guests. It includes egg,
bacon, sausage, beans, mushrooms, tomatoes, and toast, with tea or coffee and it
contains around 1,000 calories (women need around 2,000 calories a day, and men need
around 2,500). However, most people start their working day with a piece of toast or
some cereal – some don’t have anything at all.
Lunch
Lunch is between midday and 1.30 p.m., and in England people are more likely to have
a smaller meal in the middle of the day. For example, a sandwich and a packet of crisps,
or a takeaway, which they can eat at their desk. They often work while they eat. If it’s
someone’s birthday, a group of people who work together might go to a restaurant or a
pub for lunch.
Dinner
Dinner (also called ‘supper’ in the south of the country and ‘tea’ in the north) is the
biggest meal of the day and we have it between 6 and 8 p.m. In the past, the traditional
evening meal was ‘meat and two veg (vegetables)’ then a pudding, and, on Fridays, a lot
of people ate fish. Today, many families enjoy a traditional dinner on Sundays, but
during the rest of the week we like to cook lots of different things, including food from
other countries. Indian food is now more popular in England than fish and chips.
Around two million of us go to Indian restaurants every week!

TEXT B
Last year my boyfriend Mark was forty and I wanted to get him a special present for his
birthday. Just before Christmas I saw tickets for a Bruce Springsteen concert for sale on
the internet. The concert was in Sheffield, about 25 miles away from where we live, and
Mark is a big fan of Bruce Springsteen so I decided to buy two tickets. They weren’t
cheap – I think I paid around £90 for each one. I wanted to surprise Mark, so I didn’t
tell him about it.
On the day of the concert, I told Mark that I wanted to do some Christmas shopping in
Sheffield. We left in my car just after lunch and spent the afternoon in a big shopping
centre. I bought Christmas presents for my family and a skirt for work. Mark looked for
some new jeans, but he couldn’t find any that he liked. By the time we finished
shopping it was nearly 6 p.m. and we were hungry so we had dinner in a Japanese
restaurant. After dinner we left the shopping centre and set off on our way home. On the
way we passed the concert hall and we could see the crowds of fans outside. Mark was
really surprised when I drove into the concert hall car park and gave him the tickets!
The concert was fantastic. We danced all night and Mark took lots of photos on his
mobile phone. Afterwards we bought a concert CD. We put it on when we got in the car
and we sang all of the songs as we drove home. We didn’t get back home until nearly
one o’clock in the morning and we were both really tired, but it was a great night and
Mark really enjoyed his surprise.
