Beautiful sandwish made by some of the loveliest East End ladies - sandwiches so big that I couldn’t finish in one go! Please visit this little hidden gem.

This place exceeds all expectations. The staff are always warm and welcoming, the food consistently delicious and top quality. The Bacon Bubble Beetroot (BBB) is nothing short of culinary perfection!

This is what sandwich cafes should be about. Delicious, thick-cut soft white bread with top quality fillings. Good prices, friendly staff. Off the beaten track in a good way. What more could you want?
