Full title: Family say they have been forced to close their cafe after complaints over the Union Jack flags they stuck in their fry-ups

A family cafe is being forced to close down after the owners were repeatedly abused and called 'racist' - all because they put Union Jack and England flags in their food.

Tiny toothpicks with the flags have been inserted in fry up's since Cafe 164 opened in Hornchurch, east London, in 2016.

But Carol Brown and daughter Candy Merrett faced a wave of abuse - mainly from people who had never eaten there, recently.

...

On Thursday, Candy said she had received so much abuse on social media over the the novelty flags she will close the London themed cafe at the end of the month.

The flag means English Breakfast

I've seen similar meals further north with little Scottish flags - usually with haggis and black pudding on the plate.

I'm sure that will fade into obscurity, too.

East London is no place for an English family.

I suppose it is possible, in a legal sense, for their neighbors to be “British”, but they certainly aren’t English.

Thanks, mate.

I was about 14 when that came out and we all thought they were cool.

It doesn’t look appetizing at all.

Don’t bother talking to Harry. If he’s that dumb, you’d be wasting your time.

Funny...I thought the same thing about the eggs. 2-3 would be good. Hot sauce is a nice touch.

I like a little hot sauce on my eggs. Scrambled or fried.

On the hast browns, a little hot sauce and some ketchup on the plate to stir them in.
