Hard not to spot Sandwich Club sitting right in the middle of Washington St. The modern decoration gives you a hint of what to expect: traditional dishes with a modern twist! They offer pizza, hot and cold sandwiches, soup and the unbelievable tasty pies. Vegetarians, celebrate: the spinach and white beans pie is very good - ask yourself that treat! If it may seem a bit pricey for some dishes, go ahead and order a meal deal of cold sandwich and soup. Also scored some extra points for caring staff, not being packed during lunch time and groups tables. Give it a try!

Came by on a Monday at around 2:30 AM, excited to try some food. Unfortunately, everything seemed…read morepretty basic and overpriced, and there didn't seem to be too many options. Instead, the stalls mainly sell produce, meat, cheese, and seafood, which would be great if you were a local, but we were just visiting. There are a few stalls selling things like candies/honey/jams, that were reasonably priced, so we bought a few of those to bring home as souvenirs. We spent probably about half an hour walking around and made it through the entire market. It was fun to walk around and see all the local goods/products, but don't expect a lot of options for good food if you're hungry.

It tends to be packed and you'll often struggle to get a table. It's often smoky inside from toasting sandwiches...but it's homely and welcoming for all that. They do tasty sandwiches on huge slices of freshly baked bread and a toasted sandwich from here is very tummy friendly indeed. I think I overdosed on their cakes while living in Cork-the Centra up the road also stocked them-but I'd still manage to devour one of their chocolate slices or the lovely chocolate log they do. Mmmm. Chocolate log.... Staff are generally friendly and the prices are reasonable. They're generous when they cut slices of cake too. You won't go hungry! Unfortunately I'm feeling quite peckish thinking about it though...

We stumbled in to the Bookshelf as it looks like a little cafe, with lots of people popping in for coffee to go, but a few tables for diners. The line moved fast, and we ordered a ham and cheese sandwich, broccoli sweet potato soup, and a sausage roll. The service was fast and we received our food pretty quickly after sitting down. The cafe interior is pretty small and tight, and has one bathroom which opens out into the queue for the counter. It was really cold in there, not comfortable for a long lazy lunch - better for a quick bite-and-go. The food is good.

I'd say "Pureed vegetables including broccoli, potato base, served with bread."
