I have been here a couple of times now and i have to say this is the best bacon and sausage sandwich i have had in Sowerby Bridge. Plenty of meat in the sandwich, with your choice of bread (white, brown or granary) and reasonably priced as well. If your in need of a warm sandwich to take out (there are a couple of tables in the cafe) then this is the place for you.
