Such a great little spot! The atmosphere is so nice and friendly, and extremely welcoming. Got the everything bagel, cream cheese, smoked salmon, onions and capers. I would have been happy with that alone, but came with this amazing side of fresh fruit. Everything is freshly made in house, and you can tell. My wife got the chicken salad, which was made after she ordered, and was amazing. Will definitely come back.

Delightful little shop with simple sandwiches and salads that are really well made. It’s relatively small inside with limited parking outside, but we came outside peak hours and was able to get seated and served very quickly. From what I hear, it gets packed on the weekends. I’d compare this place to an elevated yet humble version of a traditional sandwich/salad shop. There were some pastries and other dishes that I didn’t get to try, which I’m looking forward to having next time!

What an adorable little eatery on Gandy near Bayshore boulevard. The hubs and I were on our usual Saturday afternoon bike ride and decided to find a place to have lunch. Google Maps took us to this little gem where we had a wonderful lunch. The place is small, simple and has a home-cooked meal kind of vibe to it. The kitchen is open, they offer soup, sandwiches and salads. They also have dinner specials listed, which we plan on trying another time. Food was great, staff was very nice and I loved all the British decor of flags, royalty-themed books and the “Keep Calm, Carry On” items found throughout the space.

Love this lunch and take out establishment! The food is ALWAYS delicious and fresh! The employees are kind and the place is always clean! Have been coming over the years the food has NEVER been bad Ask for the soup, the salads the sandwiches-and they're all a slam dunk. It's one of my favorite places to eat in Tampa

Cozy, family-run British deli in South Tampa. Great-tasting sandwiches, soups, and salads. Limited seating. Friendly hospitality and delicious food. Nice portions and reasonably priced. A small gift shop is available too.

Didn't realize this place is an English breakfast spot before I walked in. Food was great! I had theiryogurt-granola and fruit bowl, and was pleasantly surprised by them using fresh cut fruits. I finished with an egg and bacon croissant which was also very tasty!

My first experience here was with a girlfriend in December 2012. We both were a little concerned about the facade as it was modest at best but once we entered it was a wonderfully cheerful very English proper delight! All the food is prepared from scratch including the dressings! Our salads and other items were delicious! I'm pleased to report that as of April 2023 it is still one of my favorite little places to dine! I would visit just for the egg salad alone- just enough ingredients to be perfect! See photos. Update- June 2023 Still one of my favorite casual places to dine! I've added two new photos- first- Chicken Tarragon Salad with the fresh fruit side and Dijon mustard dressing. Can't get any better! Also Potato Leek Soup- so rich and tasty! Enjoy!
