Burger-like sandwiches on brioche with truffle mayo & onion
"The Verdict: This Soho sandwich shop leans more burger, and we’re definitely not complaining. The only thing that separates Crunch’s sandwiches from a really good burger are thick slices of brioche, instead of buns. But it works: fillings like beef patties with truffle mayo and crispy onions blend into the brioche toast with every bite, and makes for an outstanding meal. Lean on this Soho spot’s chrome counter and watch heaped spoonfuls of purple caramelised onion being swiped across the toast, while you wait desperately for your number to be called out." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
"The only thing that separates Crunch’s sandwiches from a really good burger are thick slices of brioche, instead of buns. But it works. Fillings like beef patties with truffle mayo and crispy onions melt into the brioche toast with every bite. This Dean Street spot only has around 10 seats, but the turnaround is fast and the patty melt is so good that we’d happily eat one of these standing in the street." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager
"Technically, you can sit-in at Crunch. But the Dean Street spot is so narrow and busy—and the burger-like sandwiches so thick and decadent—that it's better for everyone if you take yours to go. Our favourite menu is the Patty Melt. Think beef patties with truffle mayo and crispy onions that soak into the brioche toast with every bite." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna

The patties are thin and buttery, and the cheese is gooey and melted. And that caramelised onion? A game-changer. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Michaels Chicken This is a great fried chicken sandwich. It’s got all the components of a McChicken, but is way better. We’re fans of the pickles, but we’d appreciate more aioli. Ask for that, or the hot sauce on the side for dipping. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Buffalo Cauliflower We’re big fans of this vegetarian one. The deep-fried cauliflower is good, but it’s the ranch coleslaw that makes it great. And if you get more of that buffalo sauce on the side, it’s even better. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Rianne Shlebak
