Glasgow city centre to get 'Walkers Sandwich Shop' in every crisp lovers dream

Walkers' crisps are arguably one of the best out there and there's many delicious flavours, shapes and sizes to choose from. Now, the popular brand is teaming up with a Glasgow sandwich shop for one week only to bring you the ultimate crisp sandwich.

The Walkers Sandwich Shops are launching across the UK from June 12 and will feature a range of unique crisp sandwich creations with each shop tailoring its sandwiches to the region.

Though the exact location of the Glasgow shop has not yet been disclosed, it will be somewhere in the city centre.

The launch follows two years of playful debate about how the iconic crisps and sandwich duo should be eaten – inside the sandwich, or on the side.

For the first time ever, it will be bringing its wider pool of snack brands into the debate, expanding beyond just Walkers Crisps to include sandwich combinations that include Quavers, Wotsits, and Monster Munch.

The full menu and list of shop locations won’t be revealed until the week before opening.

Research shows that 98% of UK adults believe that crisps make sandwiches better, but just over a third (34%) prefer them on the side, versus 27% who prefer to eat their crisps inside their sandwich.

With this hotly contested topic continuing to divide the nation, Walkers is encouraging people to visit the sandwich shops to re-assess whether they’re #CrispIN or #CrispOUT.

Highlights from the menu include the ‘Mighty Monster Muncher’, a Monster Munch-filled fish finger sandwich, with cabbage, chipotle mayonnaise and Pico De Gallo on home-baked Focaccia.

Pennington at Walkers commented: “We believe that a bag of Walkers makes your lunchtime sandwich even more enjoyable, but it’s very clear to us that people feel very strongly about whether or not the crisps should be eaten in their sandwich or on the side.

"Last year the residents of Sandwich voted ‘Crisp In’ as the winning combination, but this year we’re widening the debate to showcase the wide range of crisp and sandwich combinations - from classic Walkers crisps through to Wotsits and Monster Munch!

“With Walkers Sandwich Shops located across the UK, we’re calling on people to head to their nearest shop, taste the sandwiches and have their say online by sharing their favourite combination from the menu, or favourite crisps to enjoy in a sandwich – whether that’s Wotsits, Monster Munch, Quavers, or classic Walkers!”
