The Lunch Box offer a huge range of sandwich fillings on a wide variety of breads and buns, to cater for all tastes. The most popular sandwiches are prepared before lunch and packaged up ready to buy... if you don't see one you like or have particular requirements, the friendly staff have no problems making one up to order. They also offer jacket potatoes, soup, salads, Indian snacks, crisps, hot and cold drinks and my favourite, a range of homebaked cakes and flapjacks. I can honestly say, that in 19 years I have not had a bad sandwich from The Lunch Box.

One of my Canadian friends just informed the rest of the group exuberantly that she found a place…read morethat serves poutine! I am not a poutine connoisseur, but the menu revealed lots of enticing sandwiches, many of which have an American deli look to them, so my husband and I ventured off to investigate for lunch one Saturday. Love the look of this new place - big menu on the wall, enticing displays of porchetta and other meats, as well as yummy homemade sweet things on display. We ordered at the front, and then our food was brought out to us at a communal table. We shared a salt beef sandwich, which tasted a lot like those back in my home country. Bread wasn't as good as a proper American deli, but the flavor of the pickle and the mustard adding a tang to the corned beef (aka salt beef) was so familiar. The meat was really tender and felt fresh, not heavy and oppressive as these big sandwiches can seem. We got a side of kracklin with apple jam - this is, of course, pork rinds (fried skin/fat). It's crunchy like a bag of crisps, but tastes like pork, which is weird, but also kind of delicious. My husband wasn't a massive fan, but I like all things salty and crispy, and thought the apple jam alongside was fantastic. We met one of my friends there by total coincidence, who got the poutine, and said it needed more cheese. She was impressed that they actually managed to find cheese curds, as they don't seem to exist in the UK, but they get them from a local dairy. Win! One of the owners said she was surprised and excited by how well the business was going, and hoping to expand the menu even more soon - right now it's just a couple of sandwiches and sides, albeit very creative ones that you can't get anywhere else. A welcome change from the usual boring sandwich shops you find everywhere, we'll be back for sure!

I opted for a build your own sandwich which consisted of chicken, brie and chilli sauce. For this, a drink and a packet of Kettle Chips, it came to around £7 which in my opinion is not bad! It was the lunchtime rush so she didn't put the chilli sauce in and put chorizo in instead. When I went in to ask her to correct her mistake she was very apologetic and gave me some chilli sauce with no extra cost - despite the fact that they were busy and the baguette was tasty! Unfortunately I didn't get to try their cakes as I was so full up and didn't fancy going to queue up again but if I'm in Newcastle I definitely will!

Our eyes were like (teacup) saucers taking in the many sweet treasures on display. Numerous rocky road options and many tea pigs on offer - this boded well. To maximise the tasting experience, we decided to share a slice of lime and ginger cake and a popcorn rocky road. Hand on heart, the ultra sweet, gooey rocky road rendered us virtually speechless - we couldn't stop sighing and exclaiming, "mmmmm". That's all there is to it. Order one. The cake was fine, but I found the icing very sickly, so I'm glad we shared it. Plenty of upstairs seating for a large group.

Fear not, the queue of mainly students goes really fast. Have your £1 ready and you can have your baguette and 1p change in a matter of minutes. The place is pretty small (the queue extends outside a lot) and there's table benches to sit on either side. There's additional seating downstairs now too. Aside from the popular baguette, there's a selection of canned soft drinks and sandwiches from the cooler on the right and a hot drinks machine on the left (not sure what they did with the hot food thing which housed pasties etc). On the menu is also baked potatoes and panninis and there's also a breakfast menu too for early risers.
