Is serving a cheese scone with soup acceptable?

Tomato and red pepper soup with a cheese scone are my lunch plans today.

heavenly combo!

How could anyone think a cheese scone with soup was not acceptable?

A fruit scone would be odd. But a cheese scone and soup is pretty standard fare.

Lovely and extra points if it is a cheese and bacon scone. The Supermarket near work used to do them but has stopped. It was a soup and the scone was a easy lunch.

If I'm making a spicy butternut squash, lentil and tomato soup, I often make a batch of cheese scones with finely chopped red pepper and red onion. Delicious

I think it’s a bit weird, but then I don’t like the consistency of scones. I’d always assumed the purpose of serving bread or toast with soup was so it can be dipped, I can’t imagine successfully absorbing much soup with a dense or crumbly scone.

My mouth is watering - a warm cheese scone with butter and marmite alongside a bowl of soup, heaven.

I’ve never tried it, but I might do now. I’ve had cheese bread with soup and it was lovely.

Sounds lovely, though i would prefer a plain roll with the soup and a cheese scone after. then a fruit one

I love a cheese scone (had one yesterday as it happens, instead of a cake, when meeting a friend for coffee). I also like soup. Personally, I wouldn't put the two together. However, I can't see how anyone could describe it as "unacceptable". It's just a matter of taste.

This is where lunch is at it's absolute peak imo

Nope. Loathe cheese scones.

The only thing I want with soup is a chunk of bread/bread roll/bagel etc

I love cheese scones but I’ve never had then with soup. The texture would be too crumbly I think. I’d go for a cheesy bread or roll instead.

I really fancy one with my bacon & lentil soup, but I've never made them.

Anyone got a really simple recipe , please ?

My oven's on the blink, so AF instructions would be good as well.

Tomato soup with a warm buttered cheese scone is delicious! Also love bacon in one… mmmm

A cheese scone and a bowl of soup is lovely ☺️

You’re missing out!

Cheese scones are never acceptable.

I have cheese scones with butter and jam.

I thought I invented this combo myself a couple of weeks ago 😳 I have never been a cheese scone fan, but suddenly I fancied one with lamb and mint soup. I have to go out of my way for the cheese scone though, because I can only seem to find them in Asda.

Only reasonable if you put a LOT of butter on the scone. Then it would be a top shelf meal.

Delicious!

A home made cheese scone warm from the oven, smothered in chive butter and served with a delicious soup sounds wonderful.

I'm not sure why the OP put this as unreasonable on the voting.

Soup and a warm cheese scone sounds lovely.

I wish I had a cheese scone right now.

Cheese Scone and soup is lovely.

Also got a liking for soup and crackers when in USA.
