Full review:
Tuckers is nestled in Fetter Lane and offers cheap toast, sandwiches, baguettes, panini, jacket potato, chips, coffees, tea and the likes. It’s a takeaway place and the quality is OK — you get what you pay for. Compared with the cafes and restaurants next door, Tuckers offer a great alternative for cheap breakfast and lunch.
What I liked about Tuckers was the ham and cheese panini I ordered. OK, so the ham and the cheese tasted cheap, but at least they took care to cook my panini long enough so it was hot and crispy (rather than warm and soggy like I’ve had from another sandwich shop in the area). The two guys who work in the kitchen are really friendly too. However, I have no idea how the pricing works, as what is charged doesn’t seem to match with the menu, but it’s only off by a few pence so no big deal.

Bloody cheap greasy spoon breakfast.
after cycling from Brixton to the City after a fasting cholesterol test, I was starving.
lo and behold, for £3.75, Tuckers managed to get 2 sausages, 2 eggs, 2 bacon, and a pile of baked beans into a polystyrene container, thus undoing all the good I’d done with exercise over the last weeks.
80p tea (it is the City after all) and coffee. No frills. Decent, but definitely on the greasy side.
