Caffe deli in Leeds - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Ahora bajo nueva propiedad como "la Costa" Gran selección de auténtica comida italiana tanto del menú como de excelentes ofertas, todo a precios muy razonables.

Una cálida bienvenida de Anne, que ha trabajado en este café italiano durante 7 años. Mi marido pidió un sándwich de tocino y huevo 4. 50 y tuve un pastel de té 1. 50 Los dos estábamos muy contentos con la calidad de la comida y los buenos precios. Carlo, el nuevo propietario, usa ingredientes frescos y prepara todos sus platos él mismo. Me complace decir que ha realizado algunos cambios acogedores en el ambiente de los cafés.

Ahora bajo la nueva propiedad de Carlo, sirve auténtica comida italiana casera en un ambiente relajado. ¡Disfrutar!

Más de 6 años de comer dentro o fuera en el Caffe. Aprecio que el servicio haya sido un poco impredecible, agradable o grosero. Visité ayer para llevar y me complació ver que el lugar estaba lleno y no era reacio a pedir un café para llevar aunque era la hora del almuerzo y estaba ocupado. Definitivamente iré allí para un almuerzo adecuado y espero que el nuevo propietario haga noches ocasionales manteniendo el ambiente italiano.

Yo y un colegio fuimos a Deli Café esta mañana para ser rechazados por un viejo con ropa blanca y sucia, simplemente porque teníamos los logotipos comerciales de cómo camisas de té. Dijo que puedes llevarte Sandwich o irte. Realmente chocante y vergonzoso cuando nos reunimos en restaurantes, hoteles, etc. Conocí a un buen número de personas del spa de Boston con mi trabajo y me dijeron que algunas veces las buenas críticas son falsas, ahora lo creo.

We were only going to come here for hot drinks but changed our mind when we saw the very good range of panini, ciabatta, sandwiches etc. We had a chicken club and it was substantial, very tasty, and served with a good side salad. They also do a decent range of hot food which looks very tasty. This is certainly a cafe we will use again.

I visited caffe deli with my husband and grandson at about half past nine on a Sunday morning. As I do not like cooked breakfasts I asked the owner if he did cheese and tomato toasties. He said “Yes, but we’re doing breakfasts “, in an irritated voice. I don’t see what difference it makes to him whether they make a full English for a customer or a cheese toastie. It put me off a bit, I won’t go again.

Absolutely excellent friendly service, excellent value for money and super tasty food and presented well, would definitely recommend and will definitely be going back, I am in a wheelchair and I went with my Son, we sat outside, albeit was good weather,throws are provided and there is a canopy that runs along the side of the cafe to provide shelter /shade. A really nice relaxing atmosphere tucked away, something to be treasured.

Found this little gem of a place by accident while looking for a snack lunch. Tried another café further down the street and was put off by the officious attitude of the owner, a lady owner who has a very high opinion of herself. The food here was hot, tasty and served with a smile - the difference between the two places was chalk and cheese ! Spoke to the owner on the way out to congratulate him - very pleasant, down-to-earth chap. Definite visit when we're next in the area. First class

Owner Chef RICO cooks up the most attractive tasty dishes from assorted daily fresh fish ,curries,panini all very tasty and inexpensive. A great selection of cakes all in a friendly cafe atmosphere. We have been many times and never been disappointed . Take it from me it is a great place for lunch.

One of the first places we found, when we moved here 8 years ago. Only very small inside, though seating outside( used a lot by cyclists and dog owners) so service can suffer at peak periods. Kitchen, food prep area also very small, so i think Rico(owner) does remarkably well to produce such good food and coffee. We have always found Rico to be very friendly, though he does look rather "harrased" when they are very busy!

I give up. I’ve been going to the deli caffe every Saturday and Sunday morning for about six months to buy a coffee to take on my dog walks by the river. Every time I go in, usually as the first and only customer the owner looks at me likes he’s never seen in me in his life and makes me a black coffee to go, you can almost hear him sigh because it’s so much hassle. Every time I ask him for a little cold water in it because I don’t want to carry a scolding hot cup of coffee and he literally tuts. This morning I went in with my three year old for the usual, bought a little bottle of juice and a coffee and my daughter asked if she could count the three coins to give them to Ricco. He said “can you hurry up please I’m busy.” Who’s rude to a three year old who wants to give him money? This was in an empty cafe at 8.45am. This is a dying business in a booming village and it’s dying not because it’s too expensive or because the food isn’t great, it’s the best coffee for miles around. If you want to compete with some of the great, friendly businesses in Boston Spa you need to work hard and be nice to people. As I left Ricco said “see you later.” No Ricco, you won’t.

Boston Spa isn’t far from the motorway and the Caffe Deli makes a much more pleasant stop with a great variety of tasty options with an Italian twist. Our lunch time choices - a well filled club sandwich and a panini with pancetta,sun dried tomatoes and cheese were delicious, as was the coffee. And all at a very reasonable price.

Came for dinner with my partner, we thought menu looked good but for my self I needed to change some bits as I have dietary requirements, this was a major issue to them :( they I ordered something asked for melted cheese it didn’t come with that. It was awful I simply couldn’t eat it as leaving without eating mine one staff member with blonde hair was rude and the chef/owner was a disgrace he was beyond awful, I walked out of the restaurant crying as his attitude was something I never seen before and don’t want to see again. Never again for me don’t bother 5 out 5 hygiene rating is a lie also

Great friendly little place for lunch. Great value for money and the food was delicious. I’d certainly recommend it and will be visiting again. Great friendly service plenty of specials .

We've visited this cafe several times for lunch and have always enjoyed it. There is always a good selction of specials on the board. I chose the seabass fillet on salad and my husband had the meatballs. Both were excellent and great value. The service was efficient and the owner a real character. Will call in again when next in Boston Spa.

One cannot say too much about the Boston Spa deli cafe other than Wow. A great place to have nice lunch with a very extensive menu. Always specials available the meat balls are delicious . Nice assortment of home made cakes also selection of teas and coffee.

Food ok and waiting staff pleasant but the owner is incredibly rude. Seemed as if we were an inconvenience. You really must go elsewhere!

Not often in Boston Spa, but we've called here for lunch, or just for a coffee several times, and always found it very good. A nice place with friendly service, and good coffee.

Had lunch here, first time in the town and most enjoyable. Located on the Main Street but occupies a little mews at the side with some tables inside. Good menu and friendly helpful service.

Hicimos una parada en Boston Spa impulsivo y mi hijo seleccionado para el almuerzo; Caffe Deli resultó ser una decisión inspirada.

great customer service, great food, great in general if your looking for a place when your travelling for a quick bite to eat!

Siempre vale la pena una visita para el almuerzo el sábado, gran variedad en el menú y ofertas especiales, todo recién hecho y bien presentado.

La comida aquí es bastante sabrosa, aunque un poco pesada, panini Sin embargo, el serio problema con este café es el dueño! Él (Rico? Es increíblemente maleducado - en la medida en que usted puede pensar que está a punto de sonreír y decir "Yo sólo estoy bromeando, tome un mate asiento"!

My wife and I found this place by accident a few years ago when we were looking for a place for lunch when travelling up the A1 from Leicestershire to Northumberland. Since then we've made a point of timing our journeys north so that we arrive in Boston Spa at lunch time so we can eat at this place. It's only a short diversion from the A1The food is great and extremely reasonably priced. It seems that there's always fresh fish available, and on our last visit my wife had Lemon Sole with salad, and I had Sea Bass with salad - wonderful!! One of my favourite meals here, however, is the Meatball and Mozzarela Panini with Sweet Chilli Sauce (also served with salad). There's never any problem with ordering a salad without peppers (I have an intolerance).I notice that some reviewers have commented on the proprietor's manner, and that this usually refers to moving tables. OK, so he is not the most smiling of persons, but I can fully understand why he might not want tables moved around. The dining area is very small and the tables carefully placed to maximise the space. Although there is plenty of room for the diners, there's not much spare room for the waiting staff to do their job of serving. As for the person who was rude enough to start moving tables without asking, and then complain when asked not do do so - you ought to be ashamed of yourself! I just wish that we had a place like this closer to home - we'd be eating there once a week!

I walkied into this cafe wanting to ask some questions about the food. I am quite small I undetsatnd that but I was waiting behind the counter for a while waiting for somone to acknowledge me and finally when the owner did see me he was sooo gruff and rude that I just walked out and went to Dulcie Butterfly down the street which had alot nicer welcoming atmosphere. I woul strongly not advise to go there if you want a welcoming experience.

We have eaten here on a number of occasions and have never been disappointed. My favourite dish is the meatballs. It is a small but very relaxing deli with staff that always have a smile on their faces. Excellent value for your money.

We ordered a chicken tilkka kebab on a bed of salad and a lamb hotpot and tea for two.The kebab turned up after 4 mins, was obviously microwaved and I could have bought better from Iceland.10 minutes later the hotpot appeared, it consisted of lamb mince, diced carrot, fat riddled gravy and sliced tinned potatoes. Again this had been microwaved and had dangerous hot spots.As the main was poor I ordered a dessert thinking that it would be better - I was sadly mistaken!The lemon meringue pie looked like it was weeks old with solid meringue that the fork could not penetrate and the lemon base could only be likened to a congealed wall paper paste - I didn't feel comfortable even tasting it.We received the bill £15.05 and paid vowing never to return

Visited here today with my new partner who had recommended it. Food was fresh and very tasty. Staff were courteous and owner "chatty"Will definitely be returning soon

I've been to Caffe Deli before with my husband and mum-in-law a year ago. We were impressed with the food, the service and the prices for the quality of the food.After an interview, I went to have lunch and again the food and service was excellent. I was shocked to read the reviews about rudeness as on both visits I have had, the owner, waiter and lady have all been very pleasant.From personal experience it's definitely worth going to and you won't be disappointed with the menu.

Called in here a couple of days ago with a client. The foods ok but it will be the last time I visit. The owner "Rico" has to be the most ignorant waiter I have ever come across. How he has a business I will never know. With other excellent restaurant/cafes in Boston Spa he should take note and learn.

We called in today for lunch, we told the owner there were 8 of us and he immediately said "I'm not pushing tables together!" He advised us that we could sit at three separate tables!!" We left and went to fifty50 and had a lovely lunch all together on one table!! Such a rude man hasn't an ounce of customer service. Avoid!!

I "tried" to visit this cafe today with my friends to have lunch. We walked through the door, there were a few people seated but it was fairly quiet. I asked for a table to seat eight of us - you'd have thought I'd asked for blood! The owner scowled at me and said he couldn't move any of the tables (he could have if he wanted to) he suggested four of us sat in the window area and four at the other side of the room! What a rude man, no customer service at all. Needless to say we walked straight back out of the place. I will make sure that all of my friends in the Boston Spa area know to avoid this place at all costs. He's one of those owners who moans about not getting enough trade, he doesn't deserve the business. We found a lovely place to eat two minutes away called Fifty Fifty, we spent £62 there. One of my friends called back into the Caffe Deli to say he could have had that amount in his till - he said he wasn't bothered! Says it all about this unpleasant man.

After wandering round the church in nearby Clifford, searching for ancestors, the need for food was upon us, so we travelled on to Boston Spa, looking for nourishment.We came across the Deli Caffe (not Caffe deli as above) and saw that there was a free table - it was rather busy for a Sunday lunchtime but the locals must know a good place when they see it!We took our seats, ordered our food and drinks, which arrived in goodly time, and we enjoyed a good meal. Enough said!

Friendly staff and excellent food will defiantly be back. Chilli,hot pot and panini fresh and tasty after our long walk

Excellent eatery all Italian family with great choices and the most reasonably priced in the whole area. Good service and setting.Do visit and stop in this delightful village minutes from the A1 North or South in Yorkshire. Great shops

This is a gem of a place . The food is cooked to order and riduculously cheap . We do not live locally but visit frequently and this fantastic little cafe is always top on our visiting list When we are in the area.The owner is always welcoming and very friendly . The cafe is quite small and can get very busy ( no doubt due its savvy regulars ) but there is an outdoor eating area that accomodates dogs and prams so everyone is catered for.Just love coming here and hope to be back soon...

Lovely coffee, tasty, cinnamony tea cake and all so reasonably priced. The menu is good, with plenty of choice for non-meat eaters. The generous salads looked very fresh.

Sat outside in sunshine and although on main road the court yard at the side was very pleasant. Good coffee. My husband enjoyed the toasted tea cake.

My sister and I visited today for lunch. We both had pannis which we very tasty, you also go a little side salad. The mozzarella was nice and fresh.We had the two pannis, a coffee, Italian fizzy drink and two pieces of cake and it was less than £15.The cafe was nice and clean, the food came fast and the service was good.Would definitely visit again.

This is a little gem of a place, though somewhat eccentric. As it is a deli that has branched out into a small cafe, it is a little cramped but has good food and is ridiculously cheap. There are tables outside under cover in an alley that seems a little taste of the continent in deepest Yorkshire. When we last ate there was no licence but you can buy wine for a local shop and there was no corkage fee. I have heard that it is not child friendly - a bonus for me - and some say the owner is rude, but has always seemed just rather eccentric to me - again a bonus! Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but great for fun dining on a budget.

Me and my partner found this cafe after a walk by the river and it is fantastic! We got the most wonderful lasagne and cannelloni 2 drinks and a cake and it was under £15 We will definitely be going back :)

Stopped for lunch after dog walking along river you can sit outside at the tables provided under cover very nice coffee but the ciabatta sandwiches were excellent stuffed full with a very nice salad garni good staff and the best bit excellent value would certainly visit again.

Had lunch on a Saturday here. No problem getting a table and the young man who served us was prompt, polite and friendly. Between the three of us we had a selection of paninis and wraps from across the menu. We all enjoyed our food. The portions were generous and the prices were reasonable. Rico was in one of his better moods but still solicited a tip.

Wish I had read TripAdvisor before setting foot in this place, but the place we planned to eat in was full and we were hungry.Never again though, we were trying to join two tables together and the owner came over and spoke to us. He has absolutely no customer care skills, we was very rude and condescending. Told us it was "one of his rule" that tables can't be moved. I felt like I was back at school. "One of his rules"? I've never entered a restaurant before and been lectured about the rules.From scanning some if the other reviews it seems this guy makes a habit out of this kind of behaviour. One of the more positive reviews makes it clear that the food is good but Rico "takes a bit of getting used to". Frankly if he expects me to buy food from him I don't expect to have to have to get used to him, as I firmly believe that being able to talk to paying customers in a civilised manner is a prerequisite to being able to run a restaurant. No way am I going to try to get used to being spoken to like that.He does employ a few young ladies who seemed very nice and I felt a little sorry for them as I am the kind of person who does not allow people to talk to me rudely and the ladies caught some of my anger.Also what should have put me off was the sign saying "no credit or debit cards". I can just about accept small businesses not taking credit cards because of the transaction fees. But debit cards? The transaction fee is tiny. Not allowing any cards at all is pretty unusual these days and very inconvenient.Maybe if the owner had a clue how to talk to paying customers he would have more customers spending money in his Deli and he wouldn't have to solicit tips (another review here says he does that) and not be able to stand 40p per transaction off his margin to allow a customer to use a debit card.Very poor.

The staff are always friendly and attentive. Rico, the owner just takes a little 'getting to know', but don't we all!!! The coffee is excellent and food always freshly prepared, delicious and good value. We have been coming for the last 2 months and it has become a regular visit on a Saturday and/or Sunday for coffees and breakfast pannini's. Must be good, as it is always busy and well frequented by the locals.

I will never go on the deli cafe again, the owner was extremely rude and told us in no uncertain terms that he has two rules, no prams and no groups over 7. The coffee is also dreadful! Moo in contrast ( little place further down the high street) is delightful, great healthy food and really friendly.

I went here for lunch on Friday 8th August 2014 with 5 friends but can't comment on the food because we left due to rude mannar of the owener and his staff. We have been here once before and thought the owner lacked the necessay customer servide skills for running a sucessful business and this trip just helped to confirm it. We are local but will avoid this cafe in future and will be telling our friends to do so too.

Went here for the first time last week for lunch. Delicious and very reasonably priced. Sat outside although not particularly sunny but nice to be eating outdoors. Paninis were packed with filling and came with a side salad. Two of us had a panini, two coffees each and a lemonade each for just short of £18 - not ridiculously priced. Would definitely go back as they allow dogs in their outside seating area.

Ate here for the first time at lunchtime today as we would rather turn off the A1 to eat instead of using motorway service stations.The outside seating would have been pleasant if the sun had been shining but it was grey and windy so we ate inside. We were pleasantly welcomed and shown to a table. The menu is good here - something for everyone really from salads and sandwiches to meals. I chose the lamb hotpot and my husband had the daily special of pulled pork, barbecue sauce and mozzarella Panini. The portions were generous and the food was delicious. I was amazed at lamb hotpot with nice brown bread and butter for under £5.We felt our meal was good value and will certainly be using this café again when next on the A1.

rude and ignorant owner - takes anger out on his staff and patrons! avoid at all costs, go to après or moo instead!

I love Rico's Deli Cafe. The paninis are always delicious, and there is always a huge selection of delicious meals if you decide to eat in. Some lovely cakes too.

Great service and friendly surroundings , which is just what we were after for Valentines night. I would recommend it to anyone .

Greeted immediately by the owner and guided quickly to a table. The cafe was over half full and we settled down to look at the menu which was quite extensive, must have been over 30 choices. After around 10 minutes the waiter came and took our order for paninis and they were ready in less than 10 minutes, with the drinks coming in around three minutes. I had a red onion, chorizo, jalapeno and mozzarella panini which was bursting with flavour, my wife enjoyed her brie and bacon panini also. The campaccino coffee was excellent also. Able to leave in forty minutes from sitting down, so service was quick and I left a tip.

Has a good reputation as a lunchtime café, and has now extended to opening 3 evenings a week. It has a limited menu, mainly Italian themed, but what they do is very good and reasonably priced. Even better for the budget, bring your own drink - 2 late night shops nearby to stock up. Our table of 4 had a variety of dishes - the sardine starter, the soup and particularly the vegetarian mushroom risotto are especially worthy of mention. One of us had what we thought was going to be steak tagliatelle - but turned out not to be strips of fillet steak in a tagliatelle sauce, but a piece of steak sitting on lettuce leaves. Fortunately we ordered a side plate of vegetables, the steak was very tender and tasty, but to our regret, we did not query the description or presentation at the time. Puddings were home made and delicious. The only strange experience came at the end. We settled up in cash, and after we got our change, our waiter (I think the guy who owns the place) asked us if we had enjoyed our meal, which got a universal approval - then he asked....'and the service...?' We translated this as 'you have not left a tip yet' and caused us to take some sharp intakes of breath. I'm ambivalent about tipping at the best of times (in my job if I had accepted money for extra good service, I would be sacked, and rightly so), and there is an extra dilemma when it comes to tipping the guy who owns the place rather than an otherwise variably motivated employee. The irony is that another member of our party was just getting some money out to leave under a saucer when this solicitation to tip was uttered, and he immediately decided to halve it when the suggestion came!

I have been to the deli cafe with my parents, and once I'd introduced my husband he couldn't get enough of the place! I've been through the day and on a night and I do highly recommend it. From delicious sandwiches and paninis to the most wonderful cakes and a lovely friendly service. Rico is the loud friendly one and Fernando is the quiet waiter who always has a charming smile. A lovely cafe and highly recommended. Try it!

We live local and had never popped in, just happened to see it had started opening on a thurs, fri & sat evening so thought we would give it a go. We weren't disappointed, it has a lovely cosy feel inside and the menu was simple but delicious and well priced (2 courses for £13) with an Italian touch. The service was great and a bonus that you could bring you own wine. It was quiet but was the first weekend they have opened in the evening, We will definitely be back!

stopped by here on bank holiday Monday. Excellent paninis. Lovely friendly staff. Very reasonably priced. Well worth a visit.

Found this place by chance whilst looking for some breakfast on a Sunday morning rather than eat in the hotel where we were staying. Turned out to be a great find. Excellent food and drinks served by very friendly and helpful staff. Newspapers available to read and obviously well known as it was busy both inside and in the outdoor courtyard. Prices very reasonable. Would certainly come again if in the area.

Stopped off for a bit of lunch here whilst visiting Boston spa. What a lovely little place. Food was lovely and plentiful. I had chicken goujon salad and must of had about 8 or 9 goujons! My partner had the Greek salad which again was plentiful. Both meals served with fresh bread. Waiter could of been a bit happier but it was an extremely hot day so put it down to that!

Genuine good food. Most sophisticated in Boston Spa, I thought. Beware, spicy chicken sandwich is REALLY hot.

I visited this deli with my brother and his family. We received a warm welcome and great service throughout. The menu had good choice and the food was superb both in quality and portion sizes, we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommended and will definitely return when I'm back in the area.

My husband and I have just returned from a 35 mile Sunday morning cycle ride around the Wetherby Boston Spa area and we called into this small cafe for refreshments at the half way point.The first thing that struck me was the terse response from the owner when I asked about cakes and his very brusque manner to his staff. The young waitress, by contrast, was very smiley and pleasant.As we were finishing our coffee and sandwich and scone a large group of cyclists arrived.I appreciate they would have taken up a lot of room and required a lot of service but the owner was so rude in turning them away! He told the gentleman making inquiries about coffees that they would break his coffee machine and could they all leave! I was quite staggered and my husband and I (even though we weren't part of the group) will not be coming back.

I visit Rico's at least once a week to sample his delicious food and welcoming humour. Never lets me down, superb value, great location and service from all his staff.

This is a small but perfectly formed Italian Style cafe, serving coffee, sandwiches and lunches daily. It closes usually about 16.00. Under the personal supervision of the proprietor the standard of the food never varies - consistently excellent. Value for money is the order of the day. The Ciabata rolls, Panini and all ingredients are first class quality, both the bread and the contents. The Yorkshire humour of the Italian born proprietor adds a superb extra factor, which makes having a coffee or Lunch here into a pure joy. I go whenever I can - and it's on my doorstep, in the attractive High Street of Boston Spa.
