A Cheam Institution for Solid Sandwiches
Piggies is a no-nonsense sandwich bar that's been serving the Cheam community since 1985, and it shows in the quality and consistency. You'll find an impressive array of homemade fillings for everything from baps to ciabattas, all made fresh to order. The coffee is freshly ground, the cakes taste genuinely homemade, and the portions are generous without being overpriced. It's the kind of place where you'll see the same faces day after day—locals who know exactly what they want and appreciate good value.
The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, though it can get busy, especially during morning rush hours. The staff are friendly and efficient, making you feel like a regular even on your first visit. It's not a destination for fine dining or romantic evenings, but for a solid, satisfying meal or a quick coffee break, Piggies delivers exactly what it promises. If you're in the area and want something reliable and unpretentious, this is your spot.
