Sunflower Sandwich Bar in North Down

The whole family loves this place. Must go once a month. 10/10 🥪 Also fantastic platters for parties.

Great spot for a sandwich or sub.

Sunflower supplied the sandwiches and finger food for my 70th birthday party. It helped to make the whole thing a success and the quality of the food was complimented by everyone. Well done Sunflower, thank you and keep up the good work.

Service was good, and the BLT that I had was nice. Felt a bit robbed by the price though. Nearly £6 for two slices of bread and a bit of filling seems a bit steep.

Ordered a coronation chicken sandwich today from sunflower, 2 rounds of wholemeal bread and coronation chicken with red pepper and red onion, was shocked when at the till I was asked for £5.75. The coronation chicken tasted very average. I usually get a coronation chicken sandwich with peppers and red onion on wholemeal bread from Pattons bakery in Donaghadee which costs £3.80 and is much more tasty. Won't be making that mistake again.

Ordered large sandwich platters and mini wraps for my birthday celebration and everyone loved them. The cheeseboard was also a lovely treat. Would recommend them. Top class!

Great service, I have a severe egg allergy and the staff were very helpful checking everything, putting out fresh paper and clean gloves, getting clean knives and equipment despite it being so busy. Staff even let me double check the ingredients on the bread just to be safe. Sunflower Melt with turkey ham bacon and cheese was delicious, lovely fresh bread and nice quality cheese. Will definitely be back to use my loyalty card!!

Great selection of sandwiches and other tasty snacks.Great friendly staff

Best and freshest sandwiches in Bangor!

Fresh, tasty food for a decent price and great service

The staff are very friendly, the food is delicious, very clean

Always delicious. The stew during the winter is elite and the German biscuits are to die for. Staff are always friendly and the bread is always fresh. I don't think I've ever been disappointed when I've eaten here.

Order two large boxes late yesterday afternoon for today! Told them I d pick them up 11-30 this morning and all sitting packaged and ready to go when I arrived early! Quality and freshness 100% I would definitely use again!! Many thanks

There is no other sandwich place like this! Always delighted. Great value ane delicious sandwiches

Big queues most lunchtimes but moves quickly. Prices are as you'd expect and tasty

Delicious sandwiches and lovely staff.

Best sandwiches great variety friendly staff definitely recommend

Ordered Christmas sandwiches for our office Christmas lunch. Was very disappointed with the ham and turkey which was processed and not fresh. Definitely not as nice as previous years.

simply amazing sandwiches and home of the Christmas Cracker

Amazing food, staff very accommodating and friendly

A massive sign made my partner and I aware of this lovely little business. I’m quite fussy when it comes to sandwiches but got the roast beef with bbq sauce and tobacco onions toasted. My partner got the Irish ham and cheese toastie with a ton of salad. We walked to the marina to eat it and it was pure heaven. Also the woman serving us after we said it was our first time there said “oh you’ll be back” and how right she is. It’s funny you sometimes never see the local businesses in your area but when you find gems like this, you’re glad you did!

 We are nurses that work at a local hospital. For the last few years we've sent multiple orders for delivery. When ordered asked for after 12 delivery as nurses wouldn't be back until then, delivery came after 11am..(lucky they did meet the delivery man on way out of hospital and got their order, the delivery man couldn't have been nicer) What was VERY upsetting was my colleague clearly heard the delivery man talk to his boss on mobile at Sunflower to check the order and he shouted down the phone "JUST BRING THEIR FU*KING ORDER BACK THEY ARE MORE TROUBLE THAN THEY'RE WORTH"...Absoutley dreadful and disgusting behaviour as we've have supported this local sandwich bar for years. Never again will these nurses be ordering from your premises if this is the way you treat loyal customers. You should be ashamed of yourself!!

This place is amazing, Great quality of food and the staff are brilliant nothing is to much trouble for them. Well done

Brilliant place worth a stop every time ur near

Great sandwiches, service and lovely staff. I've used them many times and standards remain as high as always.

Sunflower provided light refreshments at my mums funeral. Sandwiches, wraps where delicious, also large flasks of tea and coffee, everything was provided. My daughter dealt with David and found him very helpful. Thank you so much for making it all so stress free. X

Best sandwich shop you could find!

Been passed here so may times and finally decided to call in when we were milling around Bangor the other day with time to spare. The range of sandwiches was really good with the set line up of specials etc pretty good as well as the usual array of deli offerings to allow you to make your own. Both my wife and I got the “chelle” subs which were nothing short of amazing, really good filling in both quantity and quality. The coffee was decent too especially by deli standards (as opposed to dedicated coffee places). The prices were on the higher side of average although not too excessive and to be fair it was reflected in the quality which meant we didn’t feel ripped off by any means, although of course if you’re feeling the pinch in your pocked there is a Greggs not too far away! The staff were nice and the process of ordering was all COVID compliant and well run. If there was anything to add by way of a downside… and its small, was that the wait outside for the subs was a little on the long side given we were there at a very quite time (just me and 1 other customer) so I don’t know how fast it would be if you are there at a busy time and in a rush. But all in all a great experience and will definitely be back again.

Asked for a granary bread sandwich with various fillings and clearly stated not toasted. When I collected it took it home it was toasted. Did not enjoy they did not listen to the customers needs

Great sandwiches, a little overpriced, especially when they overcharge! Two sandwiches, gave them £20, £9 change given, queried this and was told that it was a mistake, they meant to give me £11 as it was £9 for the sandwiches. Understand that mistakes can be made, however, when I thought about it after, one sandwich was £3.75 and one was £4.25, so should have been £8 total, I think they just think of a rough price and hope you'll not query it. Disappointing as sandwiches are always good, might have to try elsewhere.

Long time since I had a sandwich from here but second to none best I have had.

Pulled pork melt best sub ever!!!

Really rate the Sunflower great sandwiches usually, annoying that they can’t follow orders though, asked for no sweet corn and no mayo, received it anyway. Kinda ruins the sandwich when you have to eat it with things you don’t like in it. Not exactly a difficult request is it.

I get sandwiches here on a fairly regular basis. Always so fresh and tasty. Generous fillings - you definitely need two hands - delicious! They have a great covid 19 order by phone and pick up service. Brilliant and you dont even have to enter the shop! Well done!

I am never disappointed when i go to Sunflower! The quality is always 100%, staff are friendly and food is always perfect.

Delicious sandwiches. Very friendly, helpful staff. Will be back.

Excellent. Like the hygiene arrangements.

I got a sandwich and wrap platter the morning of my daughters wedding, while everybody was getting ready. Its was brilliant and was deliveried on time, the food was delicious. Good job Thank you

Staff are rude and stink of marijuana. What a dump. Sandwich was dry yet greasy at the same time. Overpriced rubbish.

Use your customer card to build up a stamp on each sandwich bought and get a freebie. Great turkey stuffing and cranberry or the Chinese chicken are hard to beat. Well filled with salad stuff and choice of brads and rolls. Lovely and fresh but do be prepared for a bit of a queue at lunchtime peak!

Bangor's favourite sandwich shop for a reason. Great selection of taste sandwiches, subs, salads and more! Staff are always great. I have used them for corporate events and the food as arrived when expected and always a hit. Gluten free available and the Christmas Cracker is always looked forward too in my household

I tried Sunflower sandwiches on few occasions and they were always amazing, I would go so far as saying that they were the best I ever had. Some unusual combos (my favourite is coronation chicken + crispy onion + cheese and peanut butter + bacon + sweet chilli sauce) on the menu. Usually we had them delivered to work. Few weeks ago my husband decided that he wants to try Sunflower (after me raving about it for so long). So we went in to get our sandwiches... The experience wasn’t great. It didn’t seem overly busy yet appeared to be very chaotic. All staff were very nice but we ended up waiting for out sandwiches for far too long in the tiny space while trying not to get in the way of other people. All in all sandwiches are awesome, but get them delivered if you can ;)

Started a new job round the corner and was highly recommended to come try this place out. I’ve gone nearly a dozen times now and every sandwich I’ve had has been fantastic, fairly priced and service has been fast. Staff all seem really dead on and first few times I came in they were good for recommending what to go for. Not a Bangor local but this is without a doubt the best lunch I’ve had in Bangor.

First class sandwiches, coleslaw portion wouldn't feed a hamster. But really, everything else is top notch.

It is another bad experience with this sandwich shop that has lead to me writing this review. I have visited Sunflower in numerous occasions, only to be let down every single time I visit. On this occasion I ordered the ‘Favourite Melt.’ If this is the favourite I dread to think what the least favourite would be like. Bread was hard and soggy all at once, I asked for nothing added on, other than what is listed on the menu only to find that lettuce and tomato had been put in as well. Every time I’ve been I have swore it will be the last time but this time genuinely will. I have zero understanding of why people rate it so highly.

Busy shop but served quickly and business has a great variety made fresh to order while you wait

Great quick service, good food and cheap prices

Amazing sandwiches and if you are catering for large numbers it's well worth while getting them to provide the sandwiches. Super variety of fillings and the sandwiches stay together well

Sunflower does the best sandwiches in Bangor and possibly all of Ulster! Their club sandwich is great with the middle round of bread dipped in gravy 😋😋😋 Staff are all friendly and helpful The shop is not wheelchair accessible however

The best sandwiches in town, great menu and friendly staff

Gorgeous sandwich and always fesh

Best Sandwhich shop in the area

Best sandwich bar in Bangor and beyond😃🇬🇧 Great sandwiches,wraps,salads,melts,soup,stew,sausage rolls...very friendly and professional staff.....their outside catering excellent aswell...been a customer years their bread and sandwich fillings are off the higest quality👍👍

My partner and I popped in to,this establishment after discovering that the mainstream sandwich bars were busy. Sunflower was fairly hiving too but not so bad. There did not appear to be enough staff to deal with the volume of customers that they were getting. Don’t get me wrong the sandwiches were ok but nothing special. And the young person behind the counter looked extremely bored by proceedings and wishing she was somewhere else. Nice and clean apart from that and the food was fairly priced

Definitely recommend Sunflower sandwiches. Bread fresh and sandwiches well filled. Great selection. Staff friendly and helpful.

Sunflower never disappoint,Have had quiet a lot of there platters and I can honesty say that they are delicious,always fresh and good quainty/variety,staff fantastic.would highly recommend to anybody.wouldnt go anywhere else.

Sunflower never disappoints! Was here recently for my usual Leeroy on white bread, bread was very fresh and my friend got a sub which she said was really good, such a friendly place as well

Excellent quality of service and food freshly made to order and they deliver even if its just for me and the wife definitely recommended if your looking fresh made sandwiches

Haven't been here in years so when I recently had the chance to go I really enjoyed it. I had the Leeroy on a white sub, really really enjoyed it, the ingredients were very fresh and service was friendly and quick. Looking forward to my next visit soon hopefully.

Beautiful food prepared to the highest quality by friendly, helpful staff at a great price. Definitely recommended.

Nice staff members. Friendly atmosphere, I really enjoy going in for a sandwich, freshly made in front of me, tasty too.

Best spot in Bangor for a sandwich, staff are friendly, eat in or out.

Sunflower, although not having been around forever, is a Bangor institution. Their sandwich selection is incredible, whether you’re going for one off their menu or creating your own. Well worth a visit.

Great food quick and easy service free WiFi

Probably the best sandwiches in the world.

Thank you David for a superb service! Beautiful party food, hot and cold delivered to our house. Lovely presentation and delivered on time with cheerful smile.

Attention to detail. My daughter has allergies. They don't even ask they remember. Superb service and very good food

Friendly staff serving an amazing range of fresh, delicious food from a varied menu at a reasonable price is pretty everything you can ask for from a sandwich shop. And at Sunflower, you get that every single time you visit. Fantastic!

great staff.. great food top quality sandwiches👍😙

Can have any type of bread/sandwich freshly made by charming servers.Nothing is too much trouble.Love chinese chicken,peppers and crispy onions on a sub.Also do delivery.

Me encanta comer girasol y han sido sus sándwiches desde que empecé a trabajar en Bangor hace dos años. Nunca he tenido una mala experiencia y que ha incluido su disposición a enviar artículos en un orden más olvidado tan pronto como se identifica el error. La variedad de sándwiches es fantástico y mis colegas y yo nunca me ha decepcionado.

Girasol a menudo se queda sin pan.

Sandwiches are always full and tasty. Prices are very reasonable compared to most similar establishments. Staff always banter full and efficient!

you want a sandwich, this is the place, fresh quality bread, generous fillings, fast service, they also do great platters of sandwiches and hot stuff for business lunches

Best sandwich spot in co. down! It is so fresh and the portions are crazy! I can never finish the...

Siempre asegúrate de tomar un bocadillo de girasol es cuando voy de visita a casa, yo no he sido capaz de encontrar un sustituto tan bueno como el girasol ya me mudé lejos! Genial para llevar demasiado.

Love that there is so much different choices to choose from, especially love the specials at Christmas time, ive honestly never eaten a nicer sandwich !!!

Great range of delicious food - sandwiches, wraps etc all fresh and great value - also do private catering which is always lovely especially their fruit platter - lovely staff

Sunflower's been around for a fair while, which is testament to the quality of their food. They're excellent for walking in off the street for a quick and tasty lunch and their platters are brilliant if you're catering for an event.

Lovely sandwiches and they never have a problem with the strange choices of the picky eaters in our family.

Visit here quite regularly, sandwiches etc made fresh to order. Staff are lovely, good value for money, also love the added touch of the loyalty card it's great to see a business giving back to its loyal regular customers.

My title might reek of nepotism or exaggeration, but every visit to the Sunflower Sandwich Bar has earned those compliments. If challenged, I could eat their cajun melt every damn day. This is the must-visit food stop in Bangor.

Would be 5* but on my 2 visits service has been slow and unenthusiastic, however the sandwiches are delicious, plenty to choose from, with biscuits, drinks, crisps and sausage rolls too! Great food!

Great service, friendly staff and the best sandwiches in town!! Always fresh product, nothing frozen and a great variety of breads, baps, wraps etc! So much selection!

Usually I opt opt for something healthy but since it was Xmas I decided to try the American style Xmas sandwich and it was delightful I didn't eat for the rest of the day !!!

I never get the opportunity to get into the town centre but when I do, I always go for a sunflower. Every time I have been, the food is so fresh (the bread in particular) there is so much choice. Every time I have been, I am always served by friendly, helpful staff. Would seriously recommend this to anyone. Great prices for the high quality of food you are given.

Really good selection of sandwiches, buns and other snacks. The Xmas sandwich is amazing and recommend to all. Service can be a little slow but that's down to them being so busy.There delivery service is also a real bonus.

This review is on the basis that you are in the mood for a sandwich and if so then Sunflower is a great choice. I have been going here since around 2007/8 and to this day it still delivers, In fact at the time of writing Sunflower currently is selling its festive "Christmas Cracker" sandwich that is sure to make anybody moist around their taste buds. Chicken Tikka rolls are amazing. Each sandwich is well filled out and reasonably priced, this review comes with the Brambles Belly approved stamp which means its a full 5 stars for any sandwich lover in County Down.

Love this place, best sandwiches in Bangor! Lovely friendly staff as well. We love the tuna doe our little girl and the melts are huge! Great salads as well if you are trying to be good.outside catering is also excellent.

Guaranteed fresh sandwiches with very generous fillings. A wide range of choices and very reasonably priced. They also provide an excellent delivery service for businesses and schools.

You could not get a better sandwich anywhere. So much choice and always served by friendly, helpful staff. You must try it!!!

Always very tasty sandwiches and brilliant service, and a delivery and platter service which is brilliant too, have eaten from here lots of times and always brilliant

First visit and won't be my last. Top quality ingredients, great selection and friendly staff. Loyalty card a great idea. Well done. Really professional set up.

Definitely the best in Bangor. Quality Is second to none....You certainly get a fully filled sandwich/ roll. Such an array of fillings. If you've not been, then get yourself down there. Always service with a smile. Thanks.

This the best place for a sandwich or a wrap in the whole of North Down.I visited here today as my daughter who was hospitalised asked me to get her some real food and I was duly despatched by her to this specific venue for her perfect sandwich.This place is a revelation the quality of the food the choices and the amount packed into one sandwich is outstanding.I recommend it first rate.

Ordered platters to be delivered to work for staff training day. (50 people) They were fabulous. They included a vegetarian platter and a special individually packed and printed celiac sandwich at no extra cost. The bread was fresh and packed with ingredients. Also 15p per round cheaper than the last supplier we ordered from. And delivered free of charge! Perfect.

Super sandwiches made to order, really fresh and a fabulous variety. Friendly service. Outside catering is really good too! Really worth a visit, much superior to the food court chain variety!

Best sandwich shop in Bangor... Love it! Christmas cracker completes my life. Need to have it all year round lol. Breads always nice and fresh.

I'm a big fan of 'Our Favourite' which is amazing. Staff are always very friendly. The young man Josh who works there is hilarious. Worth a visit!

My son laughs at me I drive from Dundonald to Bangor for a sandwich yes I do they are amazing tasty and worth the money and drive love it here
