We sat on the terrace outside - it's on the high street through the centre of Saltash, but it isn't busy - very pleasant. Lady brings the menus, but you order and pay at the bar. I didn't realise that, and waited for ages expecting her to come back and take my order. Eventually she popped back and told me how they do things. She apologises for not explaining - but I suspect that she was being polite and I hadn't been paying attention when she told me in the first place! Lady brings the drinks. I'm driving so I try the West Country Orchards low alcohol cider. It's really good, cold, refreshing, tasty.

Ferry was cancelled today so ended up here with a group of friends who had travelled 90 minutes in both directions! Ended up spending four hours as the weather was so bad, lots of coffee and then lunch. Food was amazing and they were very happy to accommodate the dietary needs of one of our group with a bespoke meal. No hurry, not rushed or trying to get us out the door, lovely friendly service.

We had lunch here on a weekday. We had tuna melt toasted sandwiches followed by chocolate cake and lemon drizzle. The sandwiches were good, but the cakes were excellent, probably the best chocolate cake we've had for a very long time. The cakes were apparently made that morning. Friendly service. It's the first place we've been to where when we asked for a small glass of tap water for our young son, we actually got one rather than a large full glass!

Dreadfully long wait for service...even longer for food to arrive. Eggs Benedict hollandaise was "waiting to be made", then it had to be remade; when it finally arrived the hollandaise had split, with pools of oil and yellow sludge scattered on the plate. Perhaps a bad day, but based on my experience not recommended.

Had a good sandwich and chips here. Didn’t wait very long and the bread was a good size. Very quirky inside but maybe tables in front of bar need moving as this area is quite small.

We love Foreign Muck and had high hopes for Bandits when it first opened. We have been a couple of times now and the food is good but today was over 30 minutes wait for two grilled cheese sandwiches. It was not busy and most of the tables were empty but there was only one chef cooking. There have always been issues when we have come here but we keep trying hoping that they improve. Unfortunately, not today. The waitress who served us was incredibly miserable. It was like we had ruined her day by walking in the door. I asked for a glass of water and she refused pointing out their water jug behind the front door. There is a table and chair in front of it and it is behind the open front door. I said my apologies to the man sat there and got two small glasses of water. It was incredibly awkward and I quickly finished that glass and asked the unhappy waitress if I could possibly have a large glass of water so I didn’t have to disturb the man again. It seemed like such an inconvenience to her and yet it wasn’t exactly busy. A group then came in and I overheard her complaining that there were more people and one of the other, happier waitresses advised chirpily that it was the lunch rush. You would think they would be happy that people wanted to eat here! The food is good but don’t expect it within 30 minutes. Please just remove the table from in front of the water and maybe manage a smile once in a while!

Love this place! Maybe an idea to start selling nibbles like crisps, nuts, popcorn etc to go with your cocktails/drinks. This would be a great addition to your establishment and also tickles the taste buds and preps them for another drink!

Popped in today for some brunch. Had soft drinks as driving and what a great selection there was the homemade strawberry lemonade was so tasty. We all had toasties with chips although there were normal sandwiches and salads to choose from. All was cooked fresh which was obvious when eating - my chicken one (Posh Bird) was so tasty and cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly and the interior was tasteful and interesting. We will be back in the not too distant future for sure!

Impromptu quick bite to eat with the wife. She had buffalo cauliflower toasted sandwich and a lemonade and lime and I had coronation chicken sandwich and latte. Both were very tasty and the service was great. Proper chicken in mine and one of the nicest coronation chickens I’ve had ever. Thank you and I will definitely come back

My husband and I went to Bandits today for lunch and I have to say we were extremely pleased with every aspect of our experience. The staff were all friendly, the food was outstanding and the general atmosphere was relaxed. The menu is mainly grilled cheese sandwiches but there is a good choice of different versions to please all palates. I ordered a cheese steak but was really pleased to learn that I could order half a sandwich so I could indulge in an array of side dishes. My husband had the buffalo chicken and for the table we shared tomato soup, chips and Mac and cheese. Everything is homemade, including the ketchup. I really can't rave enough! We will be back, we will tell all our friends and we do 100% recommend Bandits. Keep up the good work guys

Our family was visiting from Yorkshire and I wanted somewhere to go for lunch without going across the bridge to Plymouth. Bandits was the perfect choice. Portions are plentiful with a great choice and tasty food. I had the chefs special soup that was so tasty and the grilled sandwiches were so filling we didn’t need much to eat for the rest of the day. The staff were welcoming, helpful and friendly. Thank you Bandits.

Well in spite of the ratings we ve had nice food today steak n cheese toasted sandwiches and a couple of lattes at £10.50 each food wise for toasties it is not the best economically but very tasty and cooked fresh while we waited. So hopefully they ll get some better reviews soon.

My first; (and last) visit to the establishment was not very accommodating. Considering I was alone, I felt the speed at which I was served, was painstakingly slow. On top of this the chairs were uncomfortable and tables were very sticky. The food was not appetising at all, and overpriced for the quality of the food. There was a musty smell to the place, dust over the photos adorning the walls. I wouldn't even recommend this place to someone who lives on the street, as I'm certain they'd also leave feeling very underwhelmed by the quality

Visited Bandit after the closure of my initial choice Foreign Muck. The sister restaurant had a freezing atmosphere due to aggressive air conditioning. Jackets were a must, and when inquired, was told it prevents window steaming. Limited menu with only toasties and sandwiches. A grueling 75-minute wait for the food. Rating: 6/10; too carb-heavy, no kids menu, left feeling unwell. Attempted to ask a waitress a question, met with rudeness. Uncomfortable dining experience; staff demeanor was obnoxious. Not recommended.

Bad experience, staff more concerned with chatting and laughing with chefs. One young waitress picking up the slack for the rest. Horrible smells circulating. Others were well looked after but not my wife and me. Felt sorry for waitress who tried her best to look after everyone as rest off staff were were so relaxed and not concerned you thought they were there to be cool. Looks and sounds good but problems are within the whole environment and service. Book by cover comes to mind, what a shame been a lot of money invested apparently but ran poorly and trendy but not good employees

The sandwiches and snacks in this recently opened eating and drinking venue are amazing. Outside terrace overlooking main street is great when weather permits and internally comfortable and good atmosphere. Also, while there, someone asked to bring their dog inside. They mouthed off when this was refused, but we and I suspect others rejoiced at a place willing to refuse these creatures, which irritate many. Well done Bandits, dogs should be controlled outdoors or at home. We don't all love them!

Another average breakfast with an excessive price slapped on it sadly. Miserable staff apart from the one who served us she seemed to be doing all the running around bless her. At least it was clean & tidy.

Bandits is a great place to eat and one of the best spots in Saltash! Atmosphere is lovely and it is so important to support local businesses now-a-days!! The reviews on here are unfair. We were served by Emma, who was very friendly and absolutely brilliant. no issue was too big or small, she ensured our dietary requirements were all catered for and the food came out in a timely manner and piping hot! There is a huge shortage of chefs in Cornwall which may explain others waits but we had no issues whatsoever!!

Was really looking forward to it, as eaten in foreign muck on many occasions, this place tables dirty and sticky, food was terrible I had the patty burger it was served in toasted bread with cheap cheddar cheese, not what I expected a burger is a burger, patty was boiled and not seasoned, no frills 2 ciders, small coke, chips cobb salad burger patty with a side of chips over £40 not great didn’t complain at the time as would of been embarrassed Please sort out your menu as it’s terrible, foreign muck was closed as they had to send their cooks over to run bandits, if I was you get real chefs in who can handle service as the waiting times for soup sandwiches and salads should neve be 30 to 45 minutes

I asked for cob salad and was highly disappointed tiny amount of chicken and bacon The bowl was full of salad leaves. Daughter ordered mac and cheese none left so opted for fries and was brought chips . But we waited long enough so just ate them. This is not a comfortable place to eat the benches are hard and table was very sticky gives impression that it’s dirty. Would I go back No. Would I recommend No .

We love Foreign Muck, and previously visited Bandits for coffee and cake, we eagerly awaited their breakfast service, and decided to give ourselves the treat of sampling this on a Sunday morning. Sorry to say it was not the treat we hoped for. Not overly busy at 10.30 but a 45 minute wait for our food. The acrid smell of griddled food just hung in the air, and a member of the team opened the front door. Think they need to take a look at their extraction system. The food was reasonable, and poached eggs nice and runny, which is not easy to do. However, on balance I don't think we'll be returning, thanks to the long wait plus the acrid cooking smells clinging to our clothes on our return home.

Me and my friend came in last Friday it was a bit busy but we were sat quickly and we had amazing service by a young girl, I believe she said her name was Lily. You could tell she was nervous but was polite and very helpful. When paying she told us it was her first time waitressing and I was shocked, what a credit to herself and bookoos!

The Pancake Barn is full of character and charm, both indoors and outside. It's a very family friendly place and we were made very welcome. The cakes were delicious, the coffee was excellent, and the hot chocolate was decadent. We will definitely be making a return visit to have some pancakes!
