Bellybuster Fry Required

I know from previous threads that there are a few experts on this thread when it comes to a good fry up. Hopefully I can have a few suggestions. I have 2 guys coming for a fishing weekend next Thursday morning. Now this pair enjoy their food if you know what I mean. Previously we would start the weekend with a large fry from McAnererys supermarket in Armagh (it was excellent and great value) but alas they have closed their cafe. I know they do a carry out service but we require a sit down. We will be travelling from Aldergrove airport, heading for Portadown, then Armagh and onwards towards Monaghan. Can anyone suggest a place to stop along this route for a good quality, cheapish but largish fry up and of a course a mug of tea.

Thanks in advance.

    ...by the way where's the Templepatrick turnoff. I'm partial to a good fried soda myself. Do you have to turn off from the M2?

    Well, he could 'sit in' his car..............:p:rotfl: (i actually think he may have a patio table & chairs beside the van)...lol...

    It's just as you come off the M2 heading for Ballyclare, Templepatrick, Larne etc... about 30yds on the left (lay by) as you head to Ballyclare...

    Best fry up you can get is at a van (Yes I know he is looking sit down but does no harm) in the B&Q carpark craigavon. Good food lots of it and cheap. Could take it down ans sit by the Craigavon lakes (if a nice day)

    If your in Armagh I'd suggest Fat Sams - it's always good! Or if you can stop in Portadown try Wee Barneys it's excellent and both sit in!

    HTH enjoy

    Get yourselves a bowl of porridge somewhere and stop clogging your arteries with saturated fat. You'll thank me for this advice one day if you have a heart attack and survive.

    Well at the moment I think Fat Sams is in the lead. Its either that or homemade porridge in a flask with a bottle of water !
