The Tossed Story

Following months of travelling the world in search of the perfect salad, not to mention weeks of tasting lettuce, leaves and healthy fillings, we opened our first store in Paddington, West London in April 2005. Our mission: to create a new, healthy and exciting food experience for the UK market. Bored with the small portions and bland taste of the so-called “healthy options” available, we wanted to create a healthy food offering with lots of choice that didn't compromise on taste or portion size.

Our view is that healthy eating isn't boring. It has nothing to do with sitting in a field nibbling rice cakes and munching sunflower seeds. To us, it’s about following a balanced diet that includes lots of fresh fruit and veg, some good carbs, loads of water and the odd beer and curry as a reward! It’s a philosophical approach to life that means that when you can, you take things easy and in moderation, and you have respect for your fellow human beings and for your environment. We’re here to help you make these positive changes in your life.

By keeping food simple, fresh and natural, you can eat to your heart’s content. We have a large salad bar with a large choice of house salads, or you can create your own if you prefer. We also have a range of healthy wraps, toasties and bloomers that are made on-site on the day and display their nutritional and calorific content. If that’s not already enough to tempt you, we also make fresh smoothies and juices and offer warming, healthy, hearty soups and stews on low-GI rice. Our breakfast menu includes a range of low-fat, yummy toasties, yoghurts, fruits, granola and good old fashioned Scottish porridge.

We hope you like what we do, and we love to get your feedback. We know that we’re not perfect and we welcome the opportunity to improve our products and services.

So... enjoy! And remember, whatever your parents told you, tossing’s good for you!

Hope to see you soon,

Vincent and the Tossed Team
