Best sandwich ever. All freshly prepared on site and you can tell. the team are really friendly and obviously take great pride in their work. Coffee here is really excellent. A sandwich from here is a real treat I recommend either of the chicken fillings. Delicious

Always drive past first time I popped in and I will definitely be back. Amazing fresh baguette. I went for spicy chicken… the celery was a nice touch. Thanks again

I've been here 3 times now and the quality of service has been great every time! Always a breakfast baguette I have and so does my partner and we love them! They do serve other baguettes too.

Bloody brilliant. My husband said it was the best sandwich he has ever had. Great prices and wonderful flap jacks. Oh and first class service on a very very busy Calne Bike Meet Saturday.

Been getting baguettes and sandwiches from Sam Widges for years and have never had an issue, food is always super tasty and fresh, bread baked multiple times a day so always fresh and tasty! All ingredients are fresh and super tasty! Never expensive! Usually get 2 1/2 baguettes for about £5
