London's best sandwiches

I have eaten some of the best sandwiches in the world in London, says Victoria Stewart. Here are the five very best in show at the moment
Hangover cure: the Reuben sandwich
Victoria Stewart11 November 2014

Grilled cheese, Sager + Wilde

Particularly good for cheering up a rainy evening or soaking up a boozy night. Hunky E5 Bakehouse sourdough, garlic, red, white and spring onions, with great slabs of melted cheese.

Find it: £6.50, 193 Hackney Road, E2; sagerandwilde.com

Sub-terranean, Sub-Cult

Satisfying vegetarian option: a fat white sub, truffly mushrooms, shavings of Parmesan and chunks of roasted garlic, a squelch of Stilton, thyme and rocket.

Find it: £5, Tues-Fri lunchtimes at Broadwick Street, Soho; Thurs at Lower Marsh Market; Friday at Bishopsgate; weekday and weekend evenings at the Duke of Wellington, Balls Pond Road, N1, thedukeofwellington.london

Grilled chorizo, Chorizo BBQ at Brindisa

This is a feisty thing: a floury bap, three or four slices of griddled paprika-y chorizo, a fruity, marinated piquillo red pepper, peppery rocket and a drizzle of extra-virgin Spanish olive oil.

Find it: £3.75-£4.95, Mon to Sat lunch, The Floral Hall, Borough Market, SE1; brindisa.com

Reuben sandwich, Seven Bridges Deli

To satisfy a hangover — toasted grainy bread, a huge mound of salty, peppery pastrami, a slither of melted Swiss cheese and good sides.

Find it: £7, this Wed KERB, King’s Cross; Thurs Camden Town Brewery; Sat Urban Food Fest; sevenbridgesdeli.com

Feisty: Grilled chorizo sandwich at Brindisa

Oak-smoked salmon and fromage blanc, Souli

Served in half pieces, you can mix and match your options. This one is pepped up by the occasional piece of candied orange zest and parcelled up in thin slices of crusty sourdough bread.

Find it: £2.95, 17 George Street, W1; soulifood.com
