Probably the best sandwich I've ever had. I don't know what that soup was but wow, I'll never forget it. A must try!
Excellent sandwich
Really friendly service
Place is desperately missing indoor seating - the place appears to have space for at least 10 to sit but it’s used as a shop instead.
Really enjoyed it and would have loved it if we could sit inside and eat in the e warmth
