Along with salads, soups (though not in the summer months), and jacket potatoes, there are two "fillings of the day" (veggie and non); and a selection of breads to choose from: basic sliced white and brown, granary bloomers, focaccia, baguettes, and large baps. A sample of vegetarian selections has included spring onion, veggie sausage and egg mayo <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/32453653250/ photo from Jan 2017]</small>; Mexican lime chili (using rice as a base); aubergine, feta and basil with spicy tomato; feta, spinach, sundried tomatoes, and chilli oil <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/21218113464/ photo from Sep 2015]</small> and Greek salad.

[[Bec]] usually has the granary bloomer, and as of August 2015 sandwiches cost between &pound;2.50-&pound;2.80. Fizzy pops and a small selection of crisps as well as home-baked cakes, flapjacks and biscuits are also available.

They also serve breakfast. Breakfast baps are a particular favourite as is the coffee - regular or "gourmet" with flavoured syrups for &pound;2 at the same size as a chain coffee's medium. It's always open by 08:00, possibly earlier and closed by 16:30 although I am unsure of the set hours.

Lunchtime orders can be taken via email to orders@stuffins.co.uk to be received before 11am. [[Bec]] visited in September 2017 to sample the one vegan sandwich offering of falafel and houmous on a large white bap (&pound;3.30), though note this appears infrequently on the menu. Daily specials are updated [http://www.stuffins.co.uk/todays-specials here].
[[Bec]]'s verdict: I would eat here everyday if I had the time and money to do so.

They also serve breakfast, cooked in a tiny kitchenette squeezed into a corner behind the counter, including a couple of "breakfast baps". In April 2019, [[Kake]] found the vegetarian breakfast bap <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/47579922631/ photo]</small> quite disappointing considering the quality of everything else I've had here; the scrambled egg was bland, the grilled peppers were undercooked, and the bottom of the bap was all soggy from the sliced tomato.

[[Bec]]'s verdict: All the excellent sandwich fillings are great with salads and jacket potatoes and the friendly staff make it worth a visit.

[[Kake]]'s verdict: Much more interesting fillings than your average sandwich shop, and reasonably priced too. If you're in the area and want a quick lunch, I'd definitely recommend it &#8212; just not that breakfast bap.

Sandwich shop in Croydon, just off the High Street. It's quite small inside, with only three cramped tables for eat-in.

The daily queue out the door at lunchtimes might be attributed to its convenient location to the Council office around the corner. Convenience certainly does play a part, but the delicious fresh bread, varied and unique daily specials, and friendly staff are the real reason you'll almost always wait a bit before being served. The queue does move quickly though and it's definitely worth the wait.

Along with salads, soups (though not in the summer months), and jacket potatoes, there are two "fillings of the day" - veggie and non; and a selection of breads to choose from - basic sliced white, granary bloomers, focaccia and baguettes. A sample of vegetarian selections has included spring onion, veggie sausage and egg mayo, Mexican lime chili (using rice as a base), aubergine, feta and basil with spicy tomato, and Greek salad. Bec usually has the granary bloomer, and as of August 2015 sandwiches cost between £2.50-£2.80. Fizzy pops and a small selection of crisps as well as home-baked cakes, flapjacks and biscuits are also available.
