Fantastic little sandwich shop. The choices are unreal with authentic italian meats. My favourite are the home made meatballs just like Nonna use to make 🤤🤤
Been going here for about 30 yrs. Perfect place for the best baguettes and sandwiches in boro. Service is always 5 star and food us so fulfilling
I had a pulled pork baguette from here, WOW! Would recommend to anyone on homemade bread no less, amazing!
We’re working on a new build site just around the corner and have been in here a few times for breakfast baguettes. The large one is huge, absolutely delicious too and incredible value for money. The staff are lovely, always good craic… I can’t recommend this place highly enough. If you’re in the area then you have to try this place, like us you won’t be disappointed!
Had an overnight pitstop in Middlesbrough and needed some food before I started driving again. Found this gem and got a delicious BBQ pulled pork baguette, full of flavour and filling. At a very reasonable price too. Would definitely return if back in the area.
