Thug Sandwich Company in Harrogate

Gutted. Have heard so much about this place and the infamous KF Ceaser. To be fair. Had sausage roll also which was good. The chicken for the Ceaser was ‘wet’ and very soft/mushy, in texture and quite bland. The bread just didn’t seem too fresh. Was just cold baguette / sub. I was looking forward so much. One bite and sadly threw away.

Another excellent Beef Sandwich. What can I say. As good as the last time. When in Harrogate this place is well worth a visit.

Tried this amazing sandwich shop several times, never dissapoints. Portions are huge and so tasty! Also tried THUG GRUB at the Den in Harrogate smash burgers are unreal.

I cannot recommend Thug Sandwich highly enough - You won’t be disappointed with anything on the menu. The salad box is also highly recommended, less of the bread and more of the delicious salads. The coffee is also excellent.

Walked for ages to get a sandwich from this shop,the food is great,but the customer service is poor especially from the big guy

Bought Roast Beef and a Curried Chicken and Mango buns. Both were great. Fresh and with a really great taste. Service was polite and friendly. I really did enjoy those sandwiches. The phrase "bursting with flavour" could rightly be used.

Went here for the first time today. Really friendly staff. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich. Honestly the best sandwich I’ve ever had in the UK.

After seeing this place on Rate my Takeaway on You Tube and reading the many great reviews I was expecting amazing things. Maybe choosing from the cold sandwiches menu was a mistake, one ham salad and one ploughmans. Served on rather tasteless, dry granary rolls they were really well filled and under a fiver. So why an average score? They just didn't have a lot of flavour despite the generous filling, maybe too much? Don't know why but I am sure the hot sandwiches would be better as they sound so tasty .

Absolutely awesome. Fabulous food and lovely, helpful staff. Have had everything on the menu several times over, and the quality and consistency is always top notch. Can’t say enough nice things about the place. The best sandwiches/lunch in Harrogate without question.

Brilliant sandwiches and snack boxes are even better. I am GF so the fact they look after me is a massive bonus ! Beats the GF egg sandwich from Waitrose which is my only option !

Amazing food. The Scotch Eggs were some of the best I have ever tasted, especially the Onion Bhaji scotch egg. I also had a Club Sandwich, it is the Club Sandwich I measure all others by now. I will definitely go back.

Excellent sandwiches visited off back of reviews. Fresh bread, sandwiches packed full fir a very reasonable price. Would recommend if you want a sarnie.

Visited today 04.09.23, awesome butties, reasonably priced and good portions. Spot on, will definitely be back for what I believe is the holy grail of sandwiches

Saw this placed reviewed on YouTube and thought must try it next time I’m in Harrogate. Yeah, I’ll be back.

Finally made it here today after hearing good things and I wasn’t disappointed! Absolutely fantastic sandwiches and the other bits looked incredible too, particularly the bhaji scotch eggs. I had the Reuben which was out of this world, my wife had the roast beef and said it was great, in particular the bread was awesome. I will be looking for any excuse to go back and try the rest of the menu.

We found this place online on a quick trip to Harrogate today. We wanted fresh sandwiches from an independent and we were not disappointed! I was able to have a vegan salad roll and we had the vegan sausage rolls. It was all fresh and tasty and the staff were lovely. Thank you!

Food is lovely, service is poor. It's like its a chore for the bloke to serve you. Miserable as sin. He's got worse. So much I would rather go elsewhere.

Have been getting our takeaway sandwiches from Thug for the last couple of years and there is nothing finer. Recently got married and needed a cold buffet for 100 guests until the hot food later in the day. Thug provided us with sausage rolls, scotch eggs and brownies and people loved it. They delivered to the venue in the morning and the prices were amazing. Comms with Dan were proper easy - well organised and explained all options clearly to me. Would use them for any event we have in the future, we love them!

Friendly service, very busy and you get a lot for your money. Very generous fillings, however our 2 sandwiches (a Reuben and a Ploughman) were not as tasty as we hoped/expected. They looked more impressive than they tasted unfortunately.

There is no better place to get a sandwich in Yorkshire. Never been dissatisfied with the amazing snack here. Can’t fault them one bit.

WOW.... KFceaser was banging. I deliver all over the country and eaten in some nice Sandwich places but hands down Thug sandwich co is differently my new place to go when I'm up in there neck of the woods. Plus I've spread the word around work about them.. well done lads 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Disappointing that the only vegetarian options are the very creative cheese sandwich or egg sandwich, and a salad for vegans. Meat eaters in the party could get some really imaginative sandwiches. Shame the selection isn’t as great for all dietary requirements.

Best sandwich shop in Harrogate by far. Interesting menu great ingredients. Don’t let Pret affect it !. Massive subs !. Will go again

I visit here daily. Brilliant customer service, nice and clean layout, everything is freshly prepared and the prices are great. 4.00 for a large ham sub. Worth every penny. Really do recommend. Worth the wait too. Nice one guys

The food was tasty, well cooked and very tender. I loved the black pudding Scotch egg. We had the KFC sandwich. It was fine, but there was so much oil involved in all of the items.

The place was crowded and buzzing when we arrived today so we knew it had something. My wife ordered a pulled pork sandwich and I had a pig in duvet (or David Cameron's ex's as i call them). We also ordered two brownies.My wife adored the sandwich but she did say it needed a plate and cutlery to eat properly due to the generosity of the filling half of which was still in the bag after the sandwich had gone! She also stated that a half size sandwich would be an aoption as this was gargantuan in portion size. It could do 2 people without skimping easily.The pig in duvet on the other hand is a more modest snack in size however, the taste is off the scale. This is the new benchmark to judge other sausage rolls on. The only way it could be improved is if it is served warm. Smoked bacon, superb sausage meat, lovely spice level and the pstry is paradoxically flaky yet stable...I don't even know HOW they pulled that off. The only negative I had concerned the brownies. Not a fan. I don't know if it was because they were gluten-free but i could not get with that and it did disappoint me especially after the sausage roll which makes this place will get a return visit but i will stick to the sausage rolls and I will have to try their coffee as well. Stick to the savouries and you won't go wrong.

Hands down the best sandwich shop I’ve ever been to in the UK, I’m not sure I want to tell you how good the Lamb Belly fingers are in case they sell out and I miss getting them, but boy they are amazing, KFCeaser sandwich and the Onion Bhaji scotch egg are amazing, a must go

I arrived about 10mins before closing so I was thought I might be left with the old food of the day, but it was the complete opposite everything was very fresh.The KFCeaser was excellent the chicken is moist, succulent and seasoned to perfection, the tomatoes, and other veggies complement the chicken very well, as does the creamy flavoursome sauce, and the optional siracha sauce really completes the sandwich, the chef put just the right amount of siracha on too.I also had a blackpudding scotch egg which was also top quality, a generous layer of black pudding and sausage meat mix covering a perfectly cooked egg, the brown sauce which it came with was delicious, its home made I think and has a nice flavour of chinese 5 spice/ star anise.I also had the rasberry and white chocolate flabjack which was decadent, it also had good sour note of rasberry to balance it out.I can not fault it, very enjoyable.

I’ve eaten a lot of sandwiches in my time but the one I’ve just had from Thug - curried chicken with mango and salad in a wholemeal bun - was magnificent, as good as any I’ve ever eaten! Next time I’m in Harrogate, I’ll definitely be coming back ………

Popped in this morning for some breakfast bedsore lacing Harrogate. Canning fault anything about this place. The food was beautiful, fresh and well portioned. 10/10 would recommend.

Very very good sandwiches. Hot honey and soy beef is one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. Well worth a vist

Outstanding quality food at unbelievable prices. Support a local business and buy your deli style food here. We'll worth a visit

Top Sandwiches. Everything everyone is saying is true, best around. Also great great coffee. Can't argue with the prices either. Wish we had one near us!

We very highly recommend the vegan salad box produced by Thug. Interesting and unusual tastes. Plus a generous portion - one box fed two of us. Fresh ingredients, quickly prepared.Also tried the vegan sausage roll, which was good but not in the same league as the salad box.

The best sandwich ever, the choices and the quality is fantastic and delicious, so well priced great portions, been going since first lockdown and go every week, sometimes 3 times, amazing service

Got two takeaway sandwiches from here today. Massive portion and super cheap! Best part is really tasty! Also had a cheeky little brownie, fab! Well worth a visit

Visited during a day trip to Harrogate. Chose this great independent sandwich shop for lunch and wasn’t disappointed. Highly recommend the pulled pork and the hot fried chicken sandwiches. Great service.

We had the satay sandwich, pigs in duvet, special quiche with walnuts and onion bajhi - simply outstanding (not to mention to mention the homemade brown sauce.

I'm currently sat at my desk having returned home from a walk to Thug Sandwich Co to grab some lunch. Beside my laptop is a half eaten Deli sandwich (on seeded) because it is SO GOOD I had to interrupt my eating to write this review.I am worried I will never enjoy another sandwich if it is not another one of these. Although I am reading reviews that the KFCeaser is a winner so guess I better return tomorrow to try that.

We had the Curried lamb sandwich and a BLT and they were absolutely delicious. Fresh, tasty ingredients for a big sandwich at a reasonable price. Perfect, original, local sandwich shop - would thoroughly recommend!

It has been a few days now since I had the KFCaesar and I can’t stop thinking about it. I see it in my dreams. It’s by a long way the best sandwich I have ever had and though I do not stay locally I would argue it might just be worth the 250+ miles just for the sandwich.

Stumbled across this place on our first visit to Harrogate. Who knew a cheese and chutney sandwich would be so good?! Great little pit stop

So good, we tried here twice (late April 2021).First we were tempted by the Bhaji Scotch egg - a golden-yolked egg surrounded by pork, then coated with onion bhaji: East meets West Lothian. Unusual, but it worked - would have been better heated, though.We also had the "pig in duvet" - a posh perky pork sausage roll.It would have been rude not to try their chocolate brownie, so we weren't.On our second visit we plumped for sandwiches: a KFCesar on farmhouse loaf... Succulent chicken breast coated in Thug's spice mixture with crisp lettuce and fresh tangy tomato slices, with saracha sauce.And a pulled pork with salad and spicy jalapeno slaw on a wholemeal baton.Both a little dearer than, say, M&S or Sainsbury's sandwiches, but bigger and far better.We couldn't resist another brownie, so chose a chocolate and peanut butter one. An excellent choice if I do say so myself.Oh, and a good coffee in a cool-to-handle Thug-themed thermos mug for a tenner.

We visit Harrogate regularly and always try and visit the Thug team for either lunch or breakfast (or even both). The quality of the food, coffee and service truly deserves a five star rating. The scotch eggs are particularly good and the breakfast box is fantastic - excellent quality ingredients (especially the rosti and the black pudding!).

Since our first visit that seems like months ago, but is probably just a few weeks, we have returned every weekend. New favourites include the KFC warm sandwich and the scotch eggs. The chef works tirelessly, remains upbeat and I'm sure smiles widely beneath his mask. The coffee is certainly top of the range and the little park nearby offers great picnic potential. This tiny shop deserves to be top of everyone's go to list. It certainly is on mine.

Like to drag my teen out for a walk , I find the promise of a cake or a hot chocolate the perfect motivation. Today a trip into town was needed and Thug was suggested as a lunch stop. We didn't bother reading the menu, the sausage rolls were too good to ignore, the cream egg brownie also called out loudly. A simple order, 3 sausage rolls and 3 cream egg brownies plus a couple of soft drinks. I don't think sausage roll gives justice to the bacon and pastry enrobed sausage meat, there was much exclamation and lip smacking. Then it was the turn of the brownie, now I make a good brownie but this was a whole new level of chewy delight. Will we return? Will the promise of a goodie from here work to motivate my teen, I think I can almost guarantee it! Thank you, not only did you provide a perfect lunch but also the point of much conversation on the way home.

I have visited this sandwich shop a handful of times and can honestly say nothing beats it. The quality and flavour is next level and for the price the portions are huge. My personal favourite is the KFCaesar with a side of lamb belly fingers (trust me on this one). Incredible breakfast sandwiches too, you can tell the chef really knows what he is doing. Keep up the good work guys

Best sandwiches in town hands down! Also try the onion baji scotch egg....incredible!! All home made with great ingredients 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Wow! Amazing food! Great service! Beautiful coffee! What an absolute GEM of a sandwich place! I’m so glad this place is open and doing takeouts during lockdown! Can’t recommend highly enough! Loved it! If I didn’t live an hour away, I’d be back again tomorrow... guess it could be an excuse to get out the house during lockdown (if allowed) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Oh my god, the food, the staff, the whole thug experience was epic! These guys know how to cook! Well done!!!

Great lunches over summer, good quality ingredients at a reasonable price. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend.

Visited thug Sandwich for an early lunch on a Monday. Menu was really interesting and varied so we ended up ordering mains and sides as hard not to sample bits! I had the Duck hash and my partner had the chicken sandwich and we also had a Scotch egg and a scotch bajhi. Both meals left us absolutely silenced with how good it was... there really are no words but I'll have a go. Delicious, innovative and memorable. My hash was perfectly crisp and the duck rich and flavorsome. Boyfriend kept repeating it was the best buttie he'd had and was actually considering going back for seconds to take home for another day (we live 2 hours away so sadly can't be regulars). Great coffee too. Really enjoyable food and quick service. Food was excellent value for quality take out meals. There are no tables, but we took our food down to one of the many parks and enjoyed it on a bench while watching the leaves fall, which added to the experience.If the owners ever open another site please consider Manchester! Thanks gents! :)

Sandwiches? Great. Scotch/Bhaji eggs? Great. Coffee? Great. Portions? Great. I don't think I need to say more.

Forgot my lunch today whilst working in Harrogate and stumbled across this little gem! Fresh and tasty with quick friendly service, I might just forget my lunch again next time I’m working out this way!

You know when you read about a place but either can't find it or simply don't make the time to,yeah well don't do that with Thug cos you're proper missing out.The two guys working in this place when we visited are artists.Watching my Mrs scran the KFCesar was all the proof one needs that this place is some good eats.She almost lost a finger it was going in so quick!Only in Harrogate for 2 nights but we'll be back for lunch later fellas.Impressive!

I had cheddar and chutney, partner had KF Cesar, both were excellent and great value for money. Service was super friendly too.

Best sandwiches in Yorkshire. Easily. The ingredients, amount of, and general creativity of the sandwiches are amazing. Also, it’s worth going to try the KFCeasar alone. Out of this world! Pick up a sausage roll get some of their homemade dips whilst you’re there. Great place, really hope people visit and keep this place going.

Been going to Thug Sandwich for a while now. Amazing breakfast, sandwiches and snacks. All very good portion sizes and top quality produce used. Generally the best place to get takeaway breakfast or lunch in Harrogate!

Honestly this is the best place for a hot or cold sandwich in Harrogate, very reasonably priced for a fresh and tasty experience hit this place up. The KFCaesar is unbeaten for me

Amazing sandwiches, great guys. Always loads of fillings, and good quality ingredients. Won’t go anywhere else for a lunch time snack.

I'm obsessed with this place. We just happened upon it one time and I haven't been able to stop going since. Get the KFCeasar if you go, it's absolutely insane.

Called in just by chance last week. Super friendly guys,great service. We had a cross section of vegan salads and meat sandwiches between our family. Fabulous tasty food,made fresh . Can't recommend this place enough. Five ⭐s Many thanks

Roast Beef salad sandwich is unbelievable! The star of the show was the Scotch Bhaji, should have ordered 2! Great value for money, friendly service and original menu.

Been here a couple of times now, once for breakfast and once for lunch. Really tasty food and coffee, brilliant value and great portion size. Love it.

I recently attended a function where Thug Sandwiches provided all the catering. Excellent food served by a real friendly guy. This is a great shop for a takeaway lunch.

I got the smoked salmon sandwich (which was so good I forgot to take a photo until I was half way through), husband got the deli sandwich - both were big and filled with a perfect balance of ingredients. The coffee is excellent too, and the guys behind the counter were friendly without being overbearing, can't recommend highly enough.

Visited three times as a couple, first time we had breakfast/brunch things which were amazing, the last two times we had the sandwiches which were beyond anything!!! Definitely recommend anything on the hot specials menu, my partner was a particular fan of the lamb shoulder, which he still goes on about now, despite eating before Christmas!!! Don’t bother going anywhere else for sarnies cause they just won’t be as good!!Also shout out for the friendly staff, who are obv passionate about the flavours they deliver, and the fresh scotch eggs! Yum!!

My friend told me about this place... I've been twice so far. These guys make deleciously seasoned top quality, great portion sandwiches (as well as other meals) at great price. Very good value for money, very friendly staff, highly recommended

I popped into Thug Sandwich for a quick lunch on a cold rainy day. I had Spicy Thai Butternut Squash soup, a Ploughman's sandwich and an Americano. All good. No all amazing! The fresh corriander and ginger in the soup were warming on a 5 C day. The sandwich had a refreshing purple slaw and mango chutney that cut the heat nicely. The drink was good as well. I definitely recommend Thug for those who would like a bit more spice and flavor in their regular English fare.

Delicious. Good sized sandwiches and great value. The lamb curry was amazing. Will go again next time I'm in Harrogate.

閉店前に行きました。スモークドサーモンとローストビーフのサンドイッチをテイクアウトしました。

Thug is my go to sandwich place. The guys there are down to earth, friendly and fully accommodating to any requirements.

Had a late lunch here after reading reviews yesterday. The Thug Sandwich Company is a very pleasant down-to-earth antidote to a town that appears to be more suited to the Home Counties than Yorkshire. BRILLIANT club sandwich and an excellent coffee, no frills just fresh ingredients skilfully assembled before your very eyes. We ate in and also enjoyed the music selection. Forget Betty’s go to Thug’s.

Had heard about it so went to try and will defiantly be going back as was delicious . Was very impressed and nice staff

Definitely the nicest cleanest full English I’ve ever had. Love the homemade sauces to go with it. Highly recommended.

Amazing unpretentious food that i'm yet to see rivalled. I first came for the KFCaesar and stayed for everything else on their menu which is equally great (Honey & soy beef is insane!). Pigs in Duvet, Choc orange brownies, great coffee and merch to boot!

I have been into thug sandwich quite a few times and it has never disappointed, they are more than happy to accommodate and it shows with the amount of people that go there around lunchtime! My favourite is the veggie salad box and often take this to work with me. Service is wonderful and you are always welcomed with a friendly face and often a chat. And that’s all before I’ve even mentioned the food! Perfect no fuss but delicious food, you certainly know what you’re doing!

We found Thug while killing time waiting for our train in Harrogate. The reviews seemed good so we swooped in to pick up our lunch to enjoy on a long journey north. We had a Deli sandwich (pastrami, coleslaw, pickle etc), and an Egg mayonnaise. They were both absolutely divine. There are a few bread options and we went with granary rolls, which were stuffed to the gills with our chosen sandwich fillings. It was a good choice. The service was fast and the result was fantastic. I can't praise the Thugs highly enough. Well worth a visit.

Power walk done so needed energy called in and had a fab breakfast ,the owner was a really lovely bloke and makes the best hash browns ,glad to support places like this hard working people taking a chance ,really tasty bacon ,sausages poached eggs ,black pudding ,beans ,mushroom, tomato and sour dough also had some really tasty brown and red ketchup ,get yer sen there !

This independent and friendly place is simply THEE best! The food is so tasty and freshly prepared, the portion sizes are perfect and the service is always spot on. I get my lunch here most days as I want to work my way through their tantalisingly delicious menu (I especially love the lamb belly fingers and scotch bhaji... and I'm even converted to salads now!). Highly recommend :)

Mate. You know when you're walking along with the crew and you see that place that catches your eye and you think "Oi, that looks naughty", this is the place. The geez making the sandwiches is absolutely safe too. Subway is dog while Thug sandwich is the dog's.

Can anyone make a sandwich? Yes and no. Yes, because any chump can plonk a bit of cheese between two slices of bread. No, because that's a world away from the understated innovative culinary brilliance of this low-key little eatery, in the same way that you wouldn't compare a toddlers crayon scribble to a Rembrandt. Tucked away near the Everyman cinema, this hidden gem gets every detail right, from the oozing yolks to the slow cooked pulled pork and wonderful titled 'lamb belly fingers'. Amazingly, for all it's sky-high quality, it avoids that irritating artisan snobbishness and is simply, a good old-fashioned cafe with darn good coffee. There is great literature to read, cool music and a relaxed urban vibe but what shines out is the care, craft and quality that goes into every detail. Modest in price and presence, absurdly good in taste. If Audrey Hepburn was a sandwich, she'd be smoking a fat one in Thug.

Thug sandwich is a really good place for lunch. The sandwich's use really fresh good ingredients it doesnt cost an arm and a leg (which is amazing for harrogate). I had a club sandwich there and I didn't just get lunch I got a F***ing meal. The roast beef is particularly good. Also if you want breakfast they are the only place I've come across that make an amazing hash brown (although the owner calls it a rosti, who doesn't love that)

Always amazing food with the best quality ingredients and a great menu choice. We go regularly and never disappointed!

What a find! A fantastic selection of wonderfully tasty beautifully made unusual sandwiches. Lots of other goodies to be had and specials each day. The staff are cool and friendly, unpretentious and passionate about food. One of the best places in Harrogate to get a delicious lunch. Highly recommended.

Lovely place with the best hot sandwiches you can get in the area. Eaten here 4 times now and tried 4 different hot sandwiches, each as good as the last. Pulled pork, lamb, KFCaeser, honey soy beef. It’s not just the sandwiches though, Creme egg brownie, onion Bhaji scotch egg, fancy sausage roll, millionaires shortbread. Why haven’t you come here for lunch yet? Around £18 for 2 to get a sandwich brownie and a drink each. Top notch.

My wife and I recently went for a night away in Harrogate and went here for lunch. The sandwiches were delicious! All fresh and made to order. As my wife said the best club sandwich she’s ever had. We took away Creme egg brownies for afters and they melted in the mouth gooey, chocolatey heaven. When we return to Harrogate we’ll definitely be back.

Stumbled across this place whilst having an average coffee across the road wasting time before we could check into our accommodation.

First time visiting and it was wonderful. The design of the shop and the name won my partner over instantly! The guy (don’t know if it’s the owner?) was very friendly and chilled too.

Good variety, choice of breads, made fresh, hot and cold sandwiches- huge! Really tasty & filling. Friendly service. Definitely a little jewel for takeaway sandwiches and drinks

Recent find for me but now a firm favourite. The Scottish bhaji (pictured) is pure magic. Followed with a dark chocolate billionaire's shortbread- superb.

Tried the KFCaesar on sourdough bread after recommendations from friends, honestly the best sandwich ive had in a long time, couldnt fault it.

The food and service at Thug are excellent. Everything is home made. The coffee is great too. It’s also good value for money the the quality of the food in Harrogate.

Been here a few time for breakfast sandwiches and they are really something else the quality of ingredients makes them far superior to any competition they may have and il be sure to try work through the menu. Also Just think about how amazing a homemade Scotch egg onion Bhaji could be then times that by 10 and your still not even close. Everything is fresh and homemade and the guy that runs it seems to be a good bloke even let me pop back with the money later after forgetting my wallet. with a strong passion for what he's doing. A lovely independent gem.

Every so often something a little special pops up, and this unassuming little sandwich shop is one of those.

Recommended locally and had to pop in to see a friendly face. I'm only sorry we've moved out of the area because it was delicious. I'm not on onion fan...but fresh out the oven was the delicious Bhaji scotch egg....ohhhh sooo goooooood! Must try :) also had the pigs in Duvet & KFCaesar. I know it's just fried chicken in a bun....but it's so much more than this! The breads and salad, gorgeous and tasty chicken thighs make this such a great sani! Love supporting local, and I intend to do any time I am back in Harrogate! Thanks again to Dan & Sophie.

I honestly think this is the best sandwich shop I have ever been too. Each new one you try is just a really really good sandwich with so many different flavours. Literally love it and such nice staff.

Popped in for a sandwich and a coffee for lunch, pulled pork with coleslaw on sourdough. Amazing, depth and balance of flavours - possibly one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever eaten! Coffee great as well. Highly recommend

Not long been open, but is was recommended to me last week. There is a range of hot and cold sandwiches, as well as brunch and sweet treats too. I opted for the hot pulled pork with homemade BBQ sauce and coleslaw, fantastic! There is a range of nice breads to try too, a different one for each day of the week.

I work next to this shop, so I've been there many times and all I can say is fantastic! It's not your usual sandwich shop, more like a restaurant quality food made as sandwich.
