About Express Eats Catering Ltd
Express Eats Catering Ltd is a sandwich shop run from a food van on the hospital site on Coxford Rd in Southampton, serving staff and visitors passing through on foot. Sandwiches, baguettes, toasties, and salads are made to order, alongside bacon rolls and sausage and bacon baps. Drinks range from iced coffees and an ice caramel latte to Black Forest hot chocolate, with crunchie tiffin and cakes for dessert. There is no need to book, as the van operates on a walk-in basis. It runs Monday to Friday during the daytime, staying closed on Wednesdays and over the weekend. Outside the van, a seating area with heaters and a large umbrella gives customers somewhere to sit and eat on site rather than only taking food away.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often point to the sandwiches and baguettes, made fresh to order, hot or cold, with toasties and salads alongside. The bacon roll and the sausage and bacon bap draw particular praise for generous portions, and one reviewer says they would pick the van over Costa or the M&S cafe. Close behind are the drinks, with iced coffee, an iced caramel latte, a Black Forest hot chocolate and a pink lemonade named by different diners. The crunchie tiffin and the cakes get a mention among the desserts. Reviewers repeatedly describe low prices, with one calling it the cheapest food and coffee on the hospital site, and many credit the friendly, chatty women serving, with quick service that leaves lunch breaks intact. Several say the team will tweak an order without fuss. No complaints appear in the reviews. One regular who comes every day says the staff remember their pink lemonade order, and another looks forward to the large umbrella and heated seating area outside.
