TUCKED down a quiet residential street in South East London is a sandwich shop that has become an internet sensation. In November Mustard went viral on TikTok after the owner’s daughter posted a video about its sandwiches. Since then foodies have been queueing around the block to get their hands on its mouthwatering hot meat sarnies and homemade sausage rolls.

Eager to see whether it would live up to the hype, I paid it a visit. Inside the shop is a large counter that is full to the brim with joints of pulled pork, beef brisket, jerk chicken and sausage rolls. Owner Nicola Willy-Harrison, 55, is busy behind the counter and greets me with a sunny smile.

Above her are several beaming photographs of Nicola’s father, who was a butcher. He inspired her love of food and was the main reason she decided to sell hot meat sandwiches in the shop. She tells me: “I opened the shop as a way to honour my dad, who was a butcher. I’ve always been around meat and I love cooking.

“I just wanted to produce a really good sandwich, which is quite hard to find.”. All the meat is cooked onsite daily and is prepared using a special mix of herbs and spices. Nicola updates the menu regularly with new seasonal and daily specials. Today there’s a tempting Buffalo Beef Slider, which is made with BBQ sauce, beef brisket, coleslaw, Monterey Jack cheese and jalapenos.
