Be prepared to wait but the staff knock out the butties as fast as they can and they are worth waiting for. Sandwich of the day/week offers are bargains and they have other discount offers on too. Much preferable to the Subway next door.

This Subway is one of two in Maidstone Town Centre. There is also a Subway along the High Street…read morenear Primark. Subway on Gabriels Hill is located at the top of the hill. Subway is great because you can choose exactly what you want in your sandwich, and have a great choice of fillings, and you get to choose your own choice of bread too, as well as the size, 6 or footlong. I tend to stick to the normal 6 but if your very hungry then the footlong is nice and big. The Gabriels Hill Subway is open very late at the weekends, this is great for clubbers who are leaving Strawberry Moons and fancy some food. The only downside about Subway is the lack of seating. Both Subways are small, and have about 4 tables in, and even they have just been squeezed in. So if you fancy sitting down with your sandwich, its normally very hard toget a seat. I am always very happy with my sandwich from Subway. It is always very tasty and the guys in the Gabriels Hill one are always super friendly.

Bakers Oven is paradise for sandwich lovers!…read more I have to say this sells the most delicious and appetising sandwiches I have seen anywhere. I don't know whether it's the bread, or a secret ingredient but they're so mouth watering you will go back again and again. They offer a wide choice from chicken salad, chicken mayo, ham, cheese and pickle, tuna mayo, tuna salad, etc. In addition they also have a lot of baguettes, and bakery products such as cheese bread pizzas, sausages rolls, sausage and bean pasties, cakes, bread and bigger packs of sausages rolls etc. Prices can be quite steep, sandwiches are now around £2 but they're definitely worth it!

Chicken, tuna, ham, anything and everything. Also, its a great place to buy fresh bread. I normally always pick up a bag of crispy rolls if i pop in, these last me all week for week, and actually stay fresh all week which is fab. I also love the large choice of cakes they have. From creme filled cakes to doughnuts. I love my old fashioned Belguim Bun though, always so nice. Somethings i find cheap here, and sometimes i don't. Cakes and pastries are cheap i think, but the sandwiches can be abit expensive, but totally worth the extra money.

I had the Korker panini (local…read moresausage, onion marmalade, cheddar cheese) which was very tasty, though the accompanying salad was lacklustre, consisting mostly of lettuce. Coffee was poor with the milk burnt and not frothed properly so they need to work on that. Overall I would go back, but with a few minor improvements they could really make this place a lot better.

I work in Maidstone town centre and my no1 place for lunch is Eden sandwich Bar…read more It is located along Bank St, and is opposite The KM Newspaper office. Eden is a little sandwich bar that uses only the best fresh locally grown products in there foods and make everything fresh for you. Eden is always very very busy, i think this is because the food is always nice and yummy people keep coming back. However when its lunch time and you only get an hour break, you never like waiting 20 mins for your sandwich to be made, so its always good to ring your order and then collect it. Eden sell yummy sandwiches with a choice of breads, Bagels, Ciabatta, Buguette, Panini, normal white/wholemeal, they also sell Jacket Potatos with a choice of fillings, freshly made salds, and Pastas, and also sell home made Soup. The downside to Eden is the shop is very small. You can fit about 5 people in and then the line goes out the door. The staff in Eden are ever so friendly. They are all young girls and don't ever forget a face because the next time you come back they great you with such a warm welcome and ask if you enjoyed your choice last time.
