Dexters Cob Shop

Dexters Cob Shop on Melton Road in Thurmaston serves the extended north Leicester suburban corridor with the classic East Midlands cob-shop format — filled bread rolls, sandwiches, and kebabs as the core offer. The Thurmaston section of Melton Road has its own cluster of takeaways serving a substantial residential community that grew beyond the city boundary. The cob and sandwich trade is particularly strong at lunchtime, supplemented by kebab orders in the evening.
