Really lovely lunch pit stop. Great choice and what we had (crazy breakfast and tuna sourdough sandwich) was so fresh and vibrant. Will definitely be back to try more- especially the cheesecake!

Popped in for a takeaway sandwich from a recommendation, completely blown away! Genuinely the best sandwich (Julius C) I’ve ever had in my life and amazing coffee. Warm and friendly service while still being efficient. Will 100% be visiting again !!

The best sandwich in town? There are lots of places to eat in town, but we keep coming back here! The staff are amazing. The food is amazing. There is a wider range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Coffee is very well made. And if you have space for dessert, there is a good choice of Italian style cakes and pastries.
