MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM this place used to provide my staple diet when I went to school. It is just a…read moresimple sandwich place but they seriously have not left ANYTHING out of their filling selection, the cakes are amazing and the prices are dirt cheap, especially now that I can compare them to those of London. Basically, you go in (not at prime time lunch time because it gets hectic) and pick your bread and pick your filling. They kind of rush you, so don't dilly dally. They expect you to be a regular and to know exactly what you want. I would reccommend going through the menu. Brie and Cranberry and Lettuce. Or, a very good one my friend who used to work there taught me... houmous, mango chutney and roast vegetables on wholemeal bread. AMAZING. The coffee is good too. All that for three pounds maximum. London should take some tips from Pierre's.

When…read morethere's only enough time to do so much but you're hungry, you'll be in and out of the Alternative Tuck Shop in no time. The shop is TINY and there's only room for a few people in there at a time. I suggest grabbing a menu outside and then deciding before you make it inside. I had the Chicken Curry sandwich and it was so delicious I dove straight in and didn't even take a photo. Portions are generous. One thing you should plan ahead for is a place to sit if you choose not to walk and eat. Unfortunately, the Alternative Tuck Shop doesn't have any seating indoors or outdoors. Highly recommend this spot!!

So I stumbled into this place with a colleague who works in our Reading office, and was quite…read moresurprised by not only the quality of the food that was presented to me, but also the variety of selection. This place makes baguettes to order, with a variety of toppings that create virtually thousands of unique creations. You choose your baguette with your toppings, get a soda and Walkers crisps for £3.50. The selection is extraordinary, including Peking Duck, Jerk Chicken, Chicken Tikka Marsala, Meatball Salsa, and Chilli Chicken! I had the basil (pesto) chicken, which was refreshing, delicious and filling. I also tried some more standard fare, including their lucious cookies and a sausage pasty. All in all, I enjoyed my reasonably priced lunch around an outside table under the sun.

My tablemates were also really pleased with their orders (a vaguely East Asian glazed chicken with pickled Banh Mi-style veggies and a cold roast beef with arugula--must try those next). Wow.

The baguettes are a nice size (about length of your forearm), fillings are a bit meager but you only pay about £3/baguette so it's very reasonable.
