Customer Review Summary
Bacon sandwiches draw the most comment, described as packed with bacon and cooked to each customer's taste, with one reviewer getting their bacon very, very well done as asked. A large sandwich is called large and reasonably priced, and a sausage roll with fried egg, cheesy chips and gravy, and coffees that arrive hot each get a mention. Staff are repeatedly called friendly, talkative and funny, and the family run feel and freshly prepared food come up more than once. A student reviewer calls the shop a life saver for a quick lunch order nearby. The main complaint comes from two reviewers who found a delivered bacon sandwich very salty. One says that when they phoned, they were told that is just how bacon is, and that no apology or fix followed. Another reviewer who spilled a tea was given a free replacement by staff who dealt with it graciously.

“One of an unfortunate diminishing breed of sandwich shop. I couldn't fault this place, had everything I look for when finding a lunchtime sandwich! A large sandwich is certainly large and very reasonably priced! Tasted great, was exactly what I wanted/needed! Sandwich & Co is a jewel in the crown of the sandwich industry and will forever have my loyalty when visiting Wakefield. Big respect, don't change a thing! Ps: Who's the space cadet only just learning bacon is salty by nature, jesus! Lol”
