The Alternative Tuck Shop in Oxford

An Oxford student classic. Cheap, filling and tasty sandwiches!

Simply the best place in town in terms of quality and service. Friendliest people ever. No one is even close. Ask for the olive ciabatta or baguettes, you can't go wrong.

This is my friend's favorite sandwich shop. I fell in love with this place because of him.

Excellent service. Fresh sandwiches. Choices of breads and fillings.

One of my favourites in Oxford.Absolutely fantastic sandwich, ciabattas, paninis, rolls, cakes, etc. with a great choice of fillings. The place is perfect for breakfast and lunch. The ingredients are very fresh and tasty.While the queue can get very long during the university terms as it is very popular with students, the service is quite fast and doesn't take very long.

Classic, Old school sandwich shop. I had chicken pesto baguette. Tasty, nearly £4 for a baguette however l but that's inflation in the current world.The taste justified the price. 👍🏼

Super popular little deli shop across the way from New College. So popular and beloved, in fact, I spent an entire summer thinking its name was "The BEST Alternative Tuck Shop" when it is in fact simply the Alternative Tuck Shop. That's just what my instructors, who visit every year, called it.An in-and-out sort of eatery, it's fun to grab a sandwich and take it to any of the nearby green or historical spaces Oxford has to offer. I recall them having a fairly large selection of sandwiches, some with international flair, on fresh, crusty bread. They're very popular so it's not uncommon to see a line winding out onto the street, but they handled all my orders quickly and professionally, so it's generally worth the wait -- it probably won't be as long as you imagine, anyway!

Very friendly service, don't be put off if there's a queue these guys work fast! Great fresh bread for sandwiches, all made to order and they are massive. Good quality and great value.

We found this shop by accident and I'm so glad we did. The best sandwich we have had in ages!!You can choose the bread, filing pretty much everything. The menu is huge and the guys in the shop are very speedy and efficient. I would highly recommend this shop it's a little gem

Lovely sandwich shop with generous amount of filling and bread!! I love that we get to choose whoch bread we want and there are so many choices for filling that are all very reasonable price :)!! It will be great of the bread could be warm as well but other than that all good :)! If they can make some non sugar deserts I think it will be even better :)!
