We order Chilli Banana grilled ciabattas for our "treat Friday lunches" at work. They are just utterly fabulous! Uniquely tasty sandwiches and friendly service - what more could you ask for? We have been ordering from them for 3+ years and there have never been any errors with our order. Truly outstanding! Top notch nosh!

Amazing food & abundance of choice, Friendly & efficient service even at peak times! The new lounge looks great & is a nice addition to the shop, I love the decor and the easy set up when ordering. I always bring friends here when I have visitors over & now both my sons are 'lord of the bling' fans. Keep... More

This is my daughter's favourite takeaway for her and her teenage friends to lunch from when in town, so I had promised her a sit down lunch as soon as the Chilli Lounge opened and I loved it! The food is so enticing it's near impossible to choose and is such good value. The atmosphere is comfortable with quiet music... More

I stepped into the loung at Chilli Banana and was delighted that a table was free. Two mugs of green tea and a gorgeous roasted veg wrap later and I was set for the afternoon. The staff are attentive but not intrusive. The system for ordering is slightly bewildering, but with so many options on offer, that's not really a... More

A change of plan caused us to end up at this great little sandwich bar in Hitchin. Lots of interesting ingredients in the sandwiches some hot some cold but all with interesting names. They've only just expanded their facilities so get there before everyone else realises its there. I cant't wait to go again.

Chilli Banana are without doubt the best place for lunch in Hitchin. And if you don't believe me, the number of people willing to brave the uk weather to queue out the door while waiting for the delights inside should be evidence enough. Don't be put off by the queue if it's there. Even on a really busy day you... More

I had my first Chilli Banana today, I had the Texas Chainsaw Moussaka and I've never had a sandwich as nice as that. I'm definitely going to go back there and try some of the other combinations they have and have a coffee! I strongly recommend it.

I'm new to Hitchin and came here for brunch on Saturday due to all the amazing reviews. I thought the new Lounge room was really charming & had a lovely atmosphere. The staff were friendly and very accommodating, they rustled up a sausage sandwich for me even though it was past 11am (when the breakfast menu finishes). Just a couple... More

Hello Thank you for taking the time to write a review. The chicken breast is not processed but cut every morning from a whole chicken breast, by hand. Sorry that Franco didn't ask you which bread you preferred and for serrving milk with your Green Tea. Let me explain. Those that know our little business well, they are aware that... More
