About The Lunch Box
Trading from 3 Cooper St in Chichester for four decades, The Lunch Box is a sandwich shop and take-away food bar. The counter covers sandwiches, a make-your-own salad and home baked sausage rolls, so a lunch can be put together item by item. Business lunches are part of the service, and bespoke ready made buffets can be arranged for any occasion. The team also caters funerals and wakes with buffet-style spreads.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often point to the fresh salads, from the make your own option to the chopped salad and the prawn salad, with a sausage roll as a frequent pairing. Baguettes, sandwiches on fresh bread, chocolate brownies and other cakes come close behind, and one reviewer praises the flat white and another the hot chocolate. Staff are described as friendly and welcoming, and service as quick. Two reviewers used the shop to cater funerals, citing a wide choice of sandwiches, home baked sausage rolls and quiches, clear communication and a fair price. Complaints are fewer but specific. One regular received baked beans instead of ketchup on a sausage, bacon and egg sandwich, along with a crushed cake and a half full cappuccino that tasted weak. Another found a sign advertising vegan falafel with none available, and felt staff were slow to greet them. Even so, when one takeaway order arrived slightly wrong, it was fixed immediately and delivered by the lady on the phone.

“Went to this place on my holiday to Chichester. Loved the make your own salad, very well-priced, staff friendly as well.”
- James Stanbridge
“I hardly dare leave this review because it is truely a hidden gem that I would prefer stayed quietly hidden (selfishly!). For a kid in the 70's - the stocking of Golden Wonder crisps is a highlight”
- The Luff family
“Used The Lunchbox to cater for a family wake, and cannot thank you enough for the selection of tasty offerings you were able to supply and deliver to us. Such a wide variety of choice for our small gathering, with clear presentation of food options. Having such good food ready on offer at a difficult time was much appreciated, and would highly recommend your catering service.”

“The best sandwich shop in town, fresh fillings and fresh bread which Is hard to find these days, the cakes are out of this world and I’ve even had a breakfast in a box delivered and that was good too”
- Nicola Kalli
