About Mel's Snack Cabin
Mel's Snack Cabin is a cafe in Barnsley on Whinby Rd, serving sandwiches and burgers made to order. The team asks how you would like your bacon or food cooked before it goes on. Bacon butties come with egg, mushroom or tomato, and the Steak Canadian comes with onions and cheese. The menu also lists cheeseburgers, with a bacon version. The kitchen cooks sausages for customers' dogs, so owners can order for their pet as well as for themselves. Service is walk-in.

Customer Review Summary
Bacon and sausage sandwiches are what reviewers return to most, with the bacon butties built around egg, mushroom or tomato described as fantastic and cooked just how the customer asked. Close behind are the bacon cheeseburger, called cooked to perfection, and a Steak Canadian with onions and cheese that one reviewer highly recommends. Diners praise the quality of the bacon, sausages and bread rolls, and several describe food that arrives within minutes with no queue. Prices come up repeatedly as reasonable, and one reviewer mentions two sandwiches and two drinks coming to a fair total. The owners are called the friendliest people a customer could meet, always ready to chat, and one reviewer even got holiday advice. No complaints appear in the reviews. A regular with a dog says the cafe always makes sausages for the dog.
