Although Roy debuted in Coronation Street in 1995, he became the cafe’s owner in 1997.
Meanwhile, it’s not the first time viewers have had something to say about Roy’s Rolls’ prices.
In 2023, viewers were left in shock over the eatery’s whopping hike in prices for certain dishes.
As the country battles a crippling cost of living crisis the effects seem to have rippled over to the fictional Weatherfield, with Roy upping the prices at his café.
Eagle-eyed viewers spotted that the price of pie, chips and mushy peas rose from £2.60 to £5.50, a massive 112 percent increase.
Taking to Twitter, a fan compared pictures of the fictional menu at different points in the year, noting: ‘Inflation is real.
‘Roy Cropper has had to put up the price of Pie, Chips & Mushy Peas by 112% in the last 3 months. #CostOfLivingCrisis #Corrie.’
The image instantly went viral, with The Archbishop of Banterbury Instagram account sharing the tweet and noting: ‘A sad state of affairs’.
Fans were quick to comment, penning: ‘Roys Rolls is now a Gastropub’; ‘£3.75 for a curry is a bargain’; ‘Rip off Britain’; ‘Betty would be turning in her grave….’
Even the official Coronation Street Instagram account got involved, commenting: ‘What can we say? Times are tough and Roy needs to fund his train collection somehow.’
