CosbehFox Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 In Coventry it's a batch. Had to say that on Tuesday morning, felt like spitting at the fella serving me at the same time.
Flynny Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 Cob = crusty & tasty Roll = tasteless but can be practical Bap = soft and tasteless Baps - tasty, soft, easy to hold and good to roll in Davie's got this covered pretty nicely, although I have to confess for a weakness for baps (the bread sort).
turkish14 Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 I invited a southend lass up to mine 10 years ago now, we went to the chip shop and she asked what a chip cob was. I remember thinking F**k me are all essex lasses this stupid, until it clicked that they call them rolls.
Kilworthfox Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 I went down to London not long back and asked for a Sausage cob, she didnt have a clue what I was going on about.What do you call it? Cob or Roll? It depends where you are in the country mate. I worked in Coventry and they had no idea what a cob was either, over there it is called a batch

Noooo, if it's a roll (cob, bap, bun... whatever!) with chips in then it's a chip butty. Grrr, this thread is making me hungry.
Guest Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 Noooo, if it's a roll (cob, bap, bun... whatever!) with chips in then it's a chip butty. Grrr, this thread is making me hungry. I have witnessed a chip cob in real life. Trust me, they exist EDIT: and soon after witnessing it, I wolfed it down
General Smuts Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 It's a cob you soft southern sherry drinking bastards! I literally cannot order a cob down here my missus has to translate.
Matt Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 In Coventry it's a batch. I always used to say Batch. Since leaving school and working in Hinckley/Leicestershire for 5 years I have made the switch to Cob.
stez Posted 23 April 2009 Posted 23 April 2009 I often have a sausage sandwich. well what you wanna do is, replace the slices of bread with a cob and, hey presto, you have a sausage cob. i used to go down the cob shop every dinner, when i was at school, not coombs' though, that was i right rip off!

You are quite right my bad Its too late for a chip butty, unless we fast forward to the thousands of eateries on a friday/saturday night. Then its ok
