Reynolds Let's Graze, Fitzrovia, London

Eating at Reynolds made me feel so good.
I wasn’t giving my money to any big bad corporations nor stuffing myself with greasy food I didn’t even want.
Their portions are smaller than you may be used to, so you can try more than one, but I had just a shrimp and avocado wrap that was exactly the size I wanted. The good thing is their prices are smaller too, so everybody’s happy.

In the climate of bigger, fresher, faster food I was pleasantly surprised to see a concept store buck the trend… and succeed.
Reynolds grazing concept is great for when you feel like a bit of everything, or for when you’re suffering from a bad case of indecision!
They have mini filled sandwich rolls, half wraps, mini salad tubs, fruit tubs, sushi…. all the way form wholesome white bread to the crumbly dark rye options.
I must admit I was really taken by their date muesli squares- really juicy and moreish. A definite must visit.

Work in central London? Suffer from indecision? Reynolds should be your new BFF.
I chanced upon it while heading towards Soho and dodging the main people-mad Oxford street. I’m not sure how I haven’t found it before as I will definitely go back - all the food is said to be made on site but a little less processed-looking than other leading lunch chains. There’s a really endearing quality about the interior - a basket of apples here, homemade brownies there and little rolls hand-wrapped.

The idea here is to 'graze’ - ie get a couple of smaller things to take the drudgery away from a single lunch decision. I went for the salmon sushi roll/wrap and a half sandwich of egg mayo with sunblushed tomatoes, an OJ and got change from a fiver. All tasty and definitely in my mental note as a good grazing spot.

I’ve bought stuff from here a few times. The food is always fresh and delicious. It seems to be a bit more expensive than other sandwich places, but maybe that is because the portions are smaller so you buy more. Haven’t tried the soup, but I’ve heard lots of good things about it from friends. Not much room, so I usually buy to take away.
