The counter
No prices here and no full menu: it changes, and the counter says it best. This is what 748 reviewers keep ordering, in their words. Take your time to study the menu, as Debbie Harrison put it: so many options.
01Big, fresh sandwiches on crisp ciabatta, or build your own.
Ciabatta and panini
Sandwiches come up in 68 reviews and panini in 58 more. Siddhant Singh had the Posillipo on ciabatta, a veg option with mozzarella, pesto, provolone, green leaves and sun-dried tomato finished with a balsamic glaze, and called it probably the best Italian sandwich he’d had. Reviewers also mention the Museo and the Vesuvio. They are big: Ellie-Mia Kaszics wanted something small, couldn’t finish, and the staff happily boxed the rest to take home. You can build your own, too.

05Good coffee, iced coffee and a Raffaello chai latte worth dreaming about.
Coffee and chai
Emma Clarke calls the coffee good. Siddhant Singh’s iced coffee was “just the drink I needed on a sunny Sheffield morning”. Debbie Harrison had a Raffaello chai latte she said she’d dream about, and Shubham Sapatale’s first sip of chai tea on a Saturday morning was simply: “Wow.” There’s a flat white and chai lattes in large, too.

Allergies
Tell the staff at the till before you order. Debbie Harrison found them “super friendly and knowledgeable”.
