Mr Rapid Rolls

Mr Rapid Rolls is a Fountainbridge sandwich shop with a straightforward proposition: freshly made rolls and sandwiches, from 6:30am until mid-afternoon, Monday to Friday. The menu runs from breakfast rolls through to lunchtime combinations with fillings including tuna, cheese, coronation chicken, haggis and soup, plus baked potatoes. Portions are generous and prices are low — the consistent message across TripAdvisor reviews — and the shop builds a lunchtime queue that moves quickly. Fountainbridge runs west from Tollcross through what was once Edinburgh's industrial brewery quarter, now redeveloped into a mixed office and residential area with a high concentration of workers looking for fast, affordable lunch. Rapid Rolls has positioned itself precisely at that trade. Closed Saturday and Sunday.
