Historical version 7 of Category Sandwich Shops (view current version)

View all pages in Category Sandwich Shops

Don't go to Pret a Manger. Instead go to a local sandwich shop and get them to make one for you freshly. There are good ones on [Charlotte Street]?, just off Oxford Street. And also a fantastic one on [Battersea Square]? which is nowhere near Oxford Street but I'll mention it anyway. Remember Kiddies, beware branding, it's usually hiding something. Fight homogenisation, go to a deli. MMmmkay.

Of the chains out there there are some good ones, specifically, Benjy's and Quiznos, who taste *SO* much better than Subway. Subway, of course, are identical the world over, and offer nothing particularly interesting to the gourmet of sandwiches, barring of course the gorgeous Subway Melt which is ace, especially with jalapeno peppers. (YMMV.) - Earle

A recommended chain of delis in the City is Chapters Deli.

[Coffee Matters, WC1B 4AA]? near Holborn Station is worth a visit, particularly for those of the vegan/wholefood/organic/hippie persuasion. They do a large range of very nice freshly-juiced juices.

Cafe Fresco, just next to Goodge Street Station, does a very nice toasted BLT ciabatta (without mayonnaise). Peruginos, just around the corner, also do good sandwiches and sit-down meals. --Rjp
