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!

Example: The information is for _____.

A visitors from other countries  B people who live in England 
C visitors from England 
1 People have their ‘elevenses’_____.
A before breakfast  B between breakfast and lunch  C after lunch 
2 Afternoon tea is _____.

QUIZ 3

9 Reading and Writing B

Workers and students due to their lack of time eat quite often in restaurants.

We usually have more than 3 meals a day in my

country: Peruvians suffer something that highly affects
us and that is that we love our food, we eat a lot which
explain the high obesity rate in Peru.

Peruvians apart of eating the normal 3 meals, they fall

for the temptation of eating something more like
desserts or something that a street cooker offers to them,
which are really common in the streets of Lima.
