Chicken and sage stuffing on a roll is lovely.

Too dry.

What joy - someone else who likes potato salad in a roll. My regular lunch is roll or bap with ham, coleslaw, and potato salad. When I talk about potato salad in a roll people look at me as if I have two heads!

Potato salad is great in a sandwich/roll with chicken, turkey or beef. Maybe not so much with ham. Has to be nice smooth potato salad though, not lumpy stuff.

Spicy chicken fillet & potato salad would be my go-to roll.

I'm similar, but plain chicken and a bit of lettuce too.

I like the texture of a potato salad made with potatoes that are cooked, peeled, cooled, roughly chopped, and then mixed with chopped spring onion and mayonnaise.

Egg mayo and a good deli ham like Shaws - mmmmm. I'm very fussy on the kind of egg mayo also so either home made with lots of mayo or I think Dunnes do a nice one - mmmmm.

There was a centra near me did breakfast rolls, and charged per item, most of them were dried up & nasty items, bacon was alright though but you would get miserable amounts with the other items.

I then copped on if you just ordered a single item -bacon, you got loads of it, I presume they figured it would look very scabby to give you a roll with the usual tiny amount. So you got a decent cheap "1 item roll" with filling that probably cost more than the fillings in a typical "3-4 item roll".

Regular roll -southern fried chicken, mayo, red onion, red peppers.

Victory - you get a roll with one filling for the same price as a roll with a variety of fillings . Doesn't make any sense to me. If the items weren't nice, I'd get my roll somewhere else.

Chicken, coleslaw and grated cheddar cheese.

No, it was cheaper, I said they charge per item. Or else had fixed charges like 1 roll 1 filling €1.50, roll +2 fillings €2.00, 3 items 2.50.

If you ordered with 3 items you might get 1.5 bits of bacon, order just bacon and you could get 4 or so.

Some pizza places tend to do the same, the more toppings you get the less of each goes on.

I was saying the bacon was alright, there were no other places on my way to work.

Yes to the spring onion and mayonnaise. Just don't like it too lumpy. A personal preference I suppose.

Has to have egg mayonnaise no matter what and red onion. I also like to add sweetcorn and a little bit of iceberg lettuce.

I'm obsessed with egg mayo.

Never go for a roll, always get a sambo on brown and chicken tikka/tuna, lettuce, mayo tomato and red onion...heaven

About the only sandwich/roll from a counter that I enjoy (occasionally) is brown bread with rashers, hash brown and brown sauce - that's all.

I generally get waaay too much coleslaw or grated cheese, despite saying to the person serving me, "Just a little bit of coleslaw and grated cheese."

I just can't to standard deli rolls any more. Can't face the boredom of them and the crap ingredients. Luckily I work near Lillyput Stores in Arbour Hill. Bread from Arun bakery. Fancy Irish cheeses (e.g. coolatin) and meats (proper baked ham, pastrami, smoked chicken etc). Great homemade salads, harrisa, pesto, hummus etc. They have pre made rolls and sambos. Normally 4-5 different types every day. Delicious. €4.50? Worth every penny.

Oh, they use extra virgin olive oil instead of butter where there is no other hummus, harrisa etc.
