Barm.
That, I think you'll find, is an oven bottom.
It doesn't matter as they're not stotties.
Bread rolls, you classless morons. 😆
Bun, bap, teacake, roll, oven bottom, barm..................
Taste great with nice salted butter, not good for you though!
Bread rolls, you classless morons.
[i]Excuse me my good man, but may I please have some chips in a bread roll?[/i] [img]

Yup, that's an oven bottom muffin.
A barm's a bit lighter, innit?
Bit airier?
Not as light as a bap though.
Practically see through, a bap.
You'd have something with salad in a barm, but for sausage and/or bacon, egg etc it's the oven bottom everytime.
Teacakes contain fruit, obviously. 😐
And a bread [b]roll[/b] is crusty (or partly so) on the outside, so possibly outside the bounds of the OP's question?
I'm sad that this needs pointing out, tbh.
Definitely an oven bum as we call them.
...but if you put chips in it would it become a chip barm or a chip muffin?
If you were in Preston, perhaps. (I'd never even heard the word "barm" till I went to Uni there.)
At the risk of opening a can of worms, it'd probably be a chip teacake here.
and if you put a fried egg in it at what stage does it become an Egg Banjo?
a chip teacake
Where do you live FFS, Poncechester?

Depends if it was a muffin or a barm to start with.
Harry_the_Spider - Memberand if you put a fried egg in it at what stage does it become an Egg Banjo?
Egg Banjo is one slice of bacon and a single fried or poached egg.
The bread type is irrelevant here.
You can rearrange both items to resemble a banjo.
Which is why it's not called an Egg Ukelele.
Where do you live FFS, Poncechester?
If you found Poncechester on a map, then found a point furthest from it, that's where I live.
TBH, I'd probably just call it a chip buttie regardless of the bread delivery system.
They're deformed bagels.
You know what he said about Poncechester?
barm or bap
barm
Breadcake, or if it aint round a scuffler
Egg Banjo is one slice of bacon and a single fried or poached egg
Oh no it ain't. All you need for an egg banjo is a runny yolk.
I once asked an old hag in a Leeds butty shop for a bacon muffin, she said she needed a good muffin and then proceeded to let fly all of her Benson and Hedges flavoured phlegm all over the eccles cakes whilst cackling like Vera duckworth.
That's an oven bottom muffin.
Even I know that and I'm not Northern.
Anything on a stottie deserves a thumbs up cos you can get so much in it, they're mahoosive
A chip stottie is indeed something special.
There used to be a shop in Preston when I was a student called, IIRC, "Mama's Wonder Barms." They did breakfast stotties so big that they sold them in halves.

Anything else is wrong, I have to educate butty vans across the nation on a weekly basis. Batches, baps, flourcakes, rolls, muffin, bread cake whatever.
It's a barm!!!!!!!
Not %100 but ive seen these referred to as flatbread in parts of Yurkshur
Never trust anyone who doesn't call it a barm!
*eyes cougar with suspicion*
Sir, with respect.
I am to chip butties as you are to savoury baked goods. I know of what I speak.
Barm my arse. It's a ****ing bun.
Cob
That's definitely a muffin

I knew it. Wrong uns the pair of you.
Bun = soft bread roll
Cob = crusty bread roll
Some ****ing wierdos call a bun a ****ing teacake. A teacake is a bun with currants.
It's a bread roll, if you have trouble remembering that perhaps write it down on a piece of paper if you are likely to get confused again and need some help.

That'll be me then. 🙂
Pish and nonsense.

No, what you've got there is a [i]fruit [/i]teacake.
"Teacake" is a bit like "waffle." See:

The pinnacle of pronunciation is listening to a Salford scally ask for a chip baaaaaarm. Go into a Chippy in Lower Broughton and start asking for bloody tea cakes or bread rolls. You'll be lucky to make it out alive.
Bread rolls are what you get with soup FFS!
bread with chips? 😯 Is that for people who can't afford a piece of fish?
Why would any of you want to eat one of those anyway? The one on the bottom right looks like it has a bleached bum hole in the middle.
Some Northern abomination.
Mr smith in having a pop at anyone outside of ****ing London shocker....
Nothing to do with being outside London, I just find staunchly defending colloquialisms and striving to hang on to a regional identity and the associated quaint affectations amusing.
LOL
I bet you're hilarious at parties.
🙂
They love my story/party piece abought asking if the vinegar was real or non-brewed condiment this one time I was in a chippy in Lower Broughton...
Where I grew up it was a breadcake, where I live now, it's a barm. I couldn't go into Greggs and ask for a bacon roll, especially when the usual reply from the staff is "do you want a brew with that?"
