Super Snack in Dundee was packed out the door when I visited for a review last week. I was joined by Kate Larg, who runs The Cheesy Toast Shack with her husband, Sam. We visited the sandwich shop on Nethergate, which serves a handful of lunchtime options.
It is clearly popular for people who work in the surrounding area. And it is one of Kate’s favourites, so I was keen to find out why. With a bright green exterior and a wee area to queue in, Super Snack, Dundee, is one of those nostalgic sandwich shops where you know what you’re getting.
There is nothing pretentious about the Nethergate takeaway. The staff are cheerful and friendly too, patiently taking the orders of the heaps of customers queueing out the door. Kate promised that serves “the best filled rolls” in Dundee, so I was eager to put this big claim to the test.
We tried her favourite, a cheese roll (£4.20). Kate asked for this packed with everything from the salad bar: jalapenos, red onion, lettuce, peppers, sweetcorn and more.
This was my first time trying out the cheesy mayo sandwich mixture, and I was pleasantly surprised. The brown bun was huge, making this a pretty mammoth sandwich. This really hit the spot, and the crunch of the fresh veg made it a refreshing bite.
I’d have liked some meat to round out the sandwich flavours a little, but that is of course down to personal taste. 5/5 4/5 Next up, I couldn’t resist putting our spice tolerance to the test with the fiery chicken panini (£4.60).
