Tried this place after hearing a lot of people enjoying the breakfast from here. I got a big breakfast sandwich and it was the best I’ve had. 5/5

Got a sharer box delivered bacos crisped up but not dried out..and always the sign of a good sandwich shop is the sausages they use! Decent quality not like the majority of other places round Radcliffe using the half sawdust £1 for a bag of 50 sausages all spot on and will use again

Lovely fresh cooked food, lots of choices. Only gave 4 out of 5 because of lack of eat in seating, although while i was there everyone coming in were getting carry outs. I'd recommend
