The Koffee Pot, Ashton-under-Lyne: 1967 - 2007

After 40 years of being Ashton’s famous greasy spoon café, the Koffee Pot had closed its doors on Saturday 24 March 2007. Citing increased competition and the Ashton Market fire of 2004, the café closed at 4.00 pm, ending its tenure as one of the oldest residents of what is now known as the Ladysmith Centre.

Sandwich Shops: Your favourites

Party People! Your favourite sandwich shops or other purveyors of that high margin fast turnover food stuff invented for eating and playing cards to, please. On Oxford Street, near St. Peter’s Square in Manchester is a good value butty shop, ‘Café Roma’. Their Tuna salads sell for half the price of a well known franchise’s equivalent, with fresher salad at that. I’ve been the proud customer of this sandwich shop for over two years. The staff are friendly and the service is speedy.

I would love to hear your comments your comments on your favourite sandwich shops.  They can be anywhere within or outside the Greater Manchester area.  You could also state your favourite sandwich.  If you are in central Manchester, I recommend the tuna salad from Café Roma, which is best enjoyed on a 12″ baguette.
