I am lucky enough to have been in two separate sandwich shops now that are called Spoilt for Choice. Now they're either a small local franchise or, more likely, one or both of them is lacking in originality and managed to pick the same name.
As it is, Southport's Spoilt for Choice doesn't look much like the Crosby version, with the shop front sporting a dark and sleek design. Inside the shop is quite small in size, but this doesn't hold too many problems as there is a small seating area for customers to eat their sandwiches if they're not in a rush to eat somewhere else. Selection wise, the sandwich fillings on offer are varied and they do the usual fillings you'd expect from a sandwich shop like this, such as tuna mayo or roast chicken as well as more adventurous ones like sweet chilli chicken and a very succulent Canadian steak sandwich, which I highly recommend.
Interestingly, Spoilt for Choice also has a café next door in which customers can sit down for a hot drink or a sandwich in the comfort of a sophisticated and contemporary seating area. The café part of Spoilt for Choice adds an interesting twist to your standard sandwich shop and its location over the road from the train station means you can grab a sandwich before a train journey. read more
