The sandwiches were amazing and for a good price. The food at the back was delicious as well, my family and I tried the squid ink pasta when we got home and loved it. It was very impressive how the quality was so high even though the food was brought out very soon after order. Over all it was amazing.

A really cute date at the Deli. The tapas was really good and the portions were large. I will be going again. We didn't book but managed to get a table. The staff were really lovely, helpful, and welcoming

This is a lovely cafe with great coffee and lovely staff. The only drawback is their extraction system doesn't seem to work very well as I always come out smelling of cooking onions or the like

I'm a Spanish person who loves good food. I've lived in England for over 13 years now and this is, by far, the best tapas I've tried. The quality of food is just outstanding (even better than in Spain). The Chef (please notice the capital C) is a perfectionist who achives perfection. The service is amazing and in a very cozy atmosphere. There are not long waiting times, but you don't feel rushed by the staff. Price is also very good for the quality. A simple MUST for tapas/food lovers!

We came in for lunch and had the quiche of the day and the pastrami panini. Both were delicious and good service.
