Alexanders

Alexander's Sandwich Bar on Boutport Street operates as a daytime-only affair, open Monday to Friday and Saturday mornings, making it firmly a working-week lunchtime fixture for Barnstaple's town centre. Sandwiches are assembled to order from a wide selection of fillings, with jacket potatoes, soups and salads providing alternatives for those wanting more than a filled roll. The shop is known for its cheerful, fast service and pricing that makes daily visits realistic — a characteristic that earns it a steady core of office-worker regulars. Boutport Street is Barnstaple's principal commercial thoroughfare, and the sandwich bar sits within easy reach of the bus and rail connections at the southern end of town.
