The lady who served us was absolutely lovely! She gave our dog a bit of chicken which he absolutely loved and she made a fuss of him. The sandwiches themselves - WOW!! We came on our lil holiday and went back the next day for another because we thought they were that good. If we’re ever back, it’ll be the first place we go!

Me and partner stopped for a refresh during out shipping trip. The sandwiches, cake and coffee were all absolutely stunning! Not very often i eat out these days and think it's better than I could make at home! Lady's behind the till were fabulous aswell. Happy to have a natter and service with a smile =) will definitely be back and highly recommend.

incredible range of sourdough sandwiches, great customer service with an owner who is more than happy to chat whilst you wait for your order. in addition to the main sandwiches, they also offer a sublime selection of sweet treats and tray bakes. they also have breakfast sandwiches available. this is the best sandwich shop in shrewsbury without a shadow of a doubt, i would recommend wholeheartedly to all!

Fantastic place to eat. Sandwichs were second to none, we were very happy to stumble across this. We had a Turkey & Smoked Bacon Club Baguette, a Southern Fried Chicken Baguette & a Sausage Roll. You can really tell they are freshly made, not just a run of the mill baguette, but something special. We popped back later in the day to grab some cakes which looked delicious earlier (and they were), and the guy behind the counter remembered us from earlier! Fantastic customer service. We had a Red Velvet Cookie Pie & a Blondie Oreo & Biscoff Pie. Would definitely go here when/if we go back to Shrewsbury.

Absolutely amazing food.. The best delivery food I've ever had, easily one of the nicest meals I've ever eaten! Really reasonably priced, fast delivery, nice hot food, really good quality, special requests met to perfection, and friendly delivery staff, can't recommend enough. The loaded oink was INSANELY good, just perfect, I'll definitely be ordering this again! Bacon and chicken bagel equally as good, really generous servings of all the fillings. Filled doughnuts delicious - light and fluffy bitesizs doughnuts, will definitely order more next time! Carrot cake was again, perfect. Chocolate marshmallow cookie has defeated me 😂 3 bites and I'm done, but it's so so good, I'll be grazing on it the rest of the day!

Another gem of a pie and pasty shop. Toilets are fine, a few small tables if you want to dine in.

I had about 20 minutes to catch my train but looking for something simple to eat for the journey back to London. So glad I took a few moments to grab a bite here. If I was Greggs on Shrewsbury, I would shut down immediately because Brown and Francis is the bakery everyone should use. I thoroughly recommend the chicken baguette with a slice of cheese on top.

Quaint little place and very nice. I had a turkey and smoked bacon club baguette which was really very good. It had the right amount of ingredients in and everything worked together, the bread was also lovely!! Will be going back next time I visit Shrewsbury. The price was fair also.

What a find!! The cronuts are incredible- the zillionaire is definitely worth a try and my girls both said the pink one with sprinkles (homage to homer?) was tasty too. Can't remember the name of the sandwich I had but it was stuffed with pastrami and sauerkraut.... delicious. Thank you!

Had the cornflake cronut and little doughnut bites.... And currently looking at house prices to move closer 😋 no exaggeration they were to die for! Sandwiches looked unreal too!

Lovely little family run place. They make fresh sandwiches, wraps, cakes, coffee etc. First, they are having similar prices compared to GREGGS, lower prices than COSTA/NERO. Second, their quality is better than all the above mentioned names. Third, they smile as they serve, even though they’re hard pressed for time. You can observe a long queue all day in this Shrewsbury outfit. I would recommend everyone coming to Shrewsbury not to miss this.
