A small shop tucked away in an alley, run by two couples – the taste and price are excellent, and you can choose from a wide range of dishes, from mild and clean flavors to bold and spicy ones. The only downside is that it opens early, closes early, and doesn’t operate on weekends.

Nice little find. Freshly made food, sandwiches, panini, wraps etc. Fillings are good portions. And they will swap ingredients to create it how you want. Made to feel like a friend. Will be back for sure. And not expensive either

Very generous portions. I can never finish their wraps! The owner is very friendly. The prices are very competitive for the area. Gets quite busy during lunch, because it’s so good. Service is a little slow.

Great stop for a quick bite and take away. The lovely couple gave us some free samples of falafel with hummus and it was so good. I got the halloumi panini and it was made fresh right in front of us.

As other reviewers mentioned, this little gem is hidden in a quiet street. The owner is a very friendly couple who has been running this store for ~30 years. We were there just once as tourists. Most are returning customers, I believe. Freshly made wraps and other food, taste good. Reasonably priced. Note that the price increases a little due to inflation. A wrap is about £5~7. Coffee or tea: £1.5. A very small store with 2 small tables maybe comfortably seat 2 people inside. Most customers take out.

I dropped by to get my sandwich and overheard that the bosses are travelling to Singapore and what does he do? Of course I shouted out to them I'm from Singapore and recommended some places to them. To the owners, I hope you had a great holiday, i really enjoyed my sandwich - with love, from Singapore!

Great little independent sandwich shop. Had a nice toasted cheese and ham panini which was very reasonably priced. They do very nice wraps as well. Why go to Greggs when the food from these small independents is much nicer.
