Megabites, Rothwell

It's been a while since I've posted a quick lunchtime bite, so here is a sandwich from Megabites in Rothwell. Ham and sliced egg salad on an oatmeal roll.


I can't fault Megabites on their rendition of a classic English sandwich. Don't come here for focaccia or rocket or anything remotely continental. Do come here for good quality ham, iceberg lettuce (which is fine in a freshly made sandwich, absolutely not in a pre-made one), and eggs as a salad item. Obligatory sauce is salad cream. I like salad cream.

The only annoying thing is that they have started charging 10p for a little sachet of salad cream or mayo. What's wrong with having a big tub of the stuff to smear on? Since when did salad lubrication become an optional extra?

Still good though.

  1. there's a place in halifax market (work in halifax live in leeds), a butchers, which does awesome cold meat and salad sandwiches for a very reasonable 1.99! I tend to get ham salad (with egg and sliced onion), with mustard and mayo. They always look a bit confused when i ask for anything but salad cream but laways oblige!

    I also like a beef with horseradish and mayo. Being a butchers the meat is awesome aswell and you get loads.

    Places like this are great for a quick midweek lunch!
