Saw a group of local police eating here and knew we had to try—did not disappoint!!! We got the spicy chicken special on focaccia. Amazing service and the food was SO good😭 The woman at the counter was also so nice and even gave us a complimentary cup of literally the best soup I’ve ever had!!! Definitely stop by! A true gem!

I was fortunate enough to have been surprised with a complementary jam donut that came alongside the sandwich I ordered this afternoon. The staff here are very friendly, and the food, very tasty. Definitely recommend, and will be back.

I just love this sandwich shop! It’s simple, loads of choice of fillings and bread, I had an Egg & Bacon sandwich all freshly cooked on the griddle and the lady who served me was super friendly and I think I must have paid something like a fiver for it, money well spent! I’ll definitely come back for those custard tarts which caught my attention!

🥪 Recommended by friends who work nearby, I had a great first experience at Chequers, located just off Strand. Big and fresh sandwiches, lots of choices. The prawn cocktail one I had was delicious 🥰 However, the special one yesterday (Sept 6) was apparently a bit strange, maybe just a one-off.. Friendly team there 👏🏻

A great option for a quick meal on the go. My ham-bacon-cheese baguette was delicious and perfectly grilled. It was a hefty portion for me, so I shared it with my mom. I enjoyed it, although my mom found it too heavy for her taste. The staff was friendly and welcoming.

Amazing every time, and they always give you a free soup. The bread is soft and fresh and the filling amounts are very generous with the option to custom order. It’s the perfect option when grabbing something during a lunch break. The staff are lovely, it’s affordable, lots of filling and bread options, and the millionaire shortbread is also banging 👌

Fantastic little sandwich shop. I chose my bread and created my own sandwich adding everything I wanted. Friendly staff, good prices, the local police and builders go here which is always a good sign for me. I’ll go back tomorrow.

I came back in the Covent Garden area, determined to have lunch in the blooming garden of St. Paul's of Covent Garden church. While walking down the street I check the food options offered here. I saw a very small shop, with a long queue. I immediately searched on Google and I liked the result - a high rating and they serve sandwiches. So I had to stand in line. Inside the small shop, 3 employees were making sandwiches on the spot according to the customer's choice. Smoked salmon in a round and large bun, seems to me like a good choice. Around me they ordered the sandwich of the day... which was not listed anywhere ... It's probably on their website. The guy who made my sandwich was kind and patient. He spread a very large amount of cream cheese, on which he arranged pieces of salmon, some slices of tomato and lettuce. On the other side of the bun he loaded avocado. From the prep counter he put the sandwich in the toaster and I made room for the next in line and waited outside. When the sandwich was ready, he motioned for me to come and gave me the food in a white bag and pointed out that there was tomato soup inside. Than I walked to the churchyard, where I sat in the sun on a bench with a blooming garden behind me. As the queue at the shop indicated, the sandwich was excellent. I could barely eat half, and my eating abilities are quite good... The tomato soup was delicious and seasoned to the right degree. Served in a wide cup with a lid. I drank it like you drink coffee. I really enjoyed a meal that cost £7.50

Delicious sandwich (avocado and mozzarella in special bread with salad and pesto), really quite massive, great price (£6.60) and like the nicest people behind the counter. Perfect lunch.

A firm favourite lunch spot of mine, now also open on Saturdays for lunch too. Always a different special option to enjoy or the selection is wide enough to make each meal slightly different. Each meal is packaged with a soup, a lovely touch that always hits the spot. The service is fantastic, a 6 person operation on a weekday lunch that churns out meals in minutes. Always friendly, always working with care to make each order correctly and they add a healthy serving of filling to the sandwiches. Atop the sarnies are a good selection of sweet treats and savoury snacks. A one stop shop for a working lunch, best enjoyed in the summer when sitting in Embankment Park.

Popped in today after the lunch time rush as I had some meetings so I didn’t have to queue, which was great. It was my first visit but many colleagues have raved about the sandwich shop before. Service was excellent, very warm and friendly staff who are happy to help. They were very attentive and made me an excellent sandwich, packed with fillings. Took it back to my office and ended up eating during another call. Hand to mute myself several times to then tell everyone around me at how good my sandwich was. Highly recommend.
