Delicacy in Epping Forest - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Bagels are awful 3rd time I've go they have been consistently getting worse. Today's bagels were shocking I won't be returning don't know what has happened. When I used to go there they were amazing but now they are just as bad as supermarket bagels I think they may be even worse.

Delicious coffee and salmon bagels!

What a lovely little spot for afternoon tea! The ladies were wonderful servers, who made sure we had everything we needed. The afternoon tea was absolutely fantastic value for money. We couldn’t even finish it! Definitely recommend!

First time visiting Delicacy, lovely atmosphere, really friendly, warm staff. Cakes were delicious. Thank you x

Fabulous deli with lovely food and exceptional service. They hosted an afternoon tea for my Mums 80th and we were made so welcome. Special thanks to all the staff who made it a memorable afternoon.

Yet another family gathering expertly catered for by Delicasy in Chigwell. Superb food, nicely presented, fresh and tasty. . .cant ask for more 👍 👍

Very good food, excellent service.

Great friendly deli with a good community spirit. Best in the area perfect to stop in for a coffee or bagel. Also brilliant for fresh bread, cakes and all other baked goods. Lovely staff always super polite and go the extra mile to help. Good location right by the station.

Great deli for all sorts of Jewish breads, rolls and cakes. Eat in or take away.

We are from NY and staying in Chigwell for a few weeks. Delicacy is the the best. Service is so friendly. Best Hazelnut Ice Coffee, great Latka’s making onion bagel, all there salads are fresh and it just feels like home!!!

Lovely staff and amazing food! Love the salt beef bagel!

Had a lovely birthday brunch with 11 guests. The staff were very friendly and patient, as we had a toddler and two babies. It is very nicely decorated with a lovely homely feel. The food was gorgeous. Thanks

Amazing food!! We order some platters for my sisters wedding theybwere incredible and good value for money!! 1million percent recommend.

Best Salt Beef Bagels in the area. Lovely team, great atmosphere

Lovely, chilled ambiance in the café. A delish interpretation of Turkish eggs, yay!

Had a wonderful experience in this cozy cafe! I went on Monday 9.30, the staff are super friendly and service is wonderful! Its a small cafe with limited space but the atmosphere is lovely and makes you feel at home. My favourite is the hot chocolate! 10/10 will certainly go here again!

The staff is so lovely. And their food was delish. Had a wonderful afternoon tea there, can't wait to go back.

I enjoy having half-day work on mondays because it means i can eat here before/after 🙏 the staff are lovely and they sell proper beigels so i aint going all the way to brick lane for my childhood faves. Sounds silly, but i'd be pure crying if they ever moved location. Can't beat their food, nor their community friendliness. This is my fave local for sure.

I cannot fault Delicacy in any way. It is an amazingly spirited and delightful café with wonderful staff, delicious food and an unmatched atmosphere to boot. I go here as frequently as I can and will happily spend several hours there. I'd give it 6 stars if I could.

Michelle and her team are THE BEST in the business. She’s provided amazing bagels and treats on numerous occasions for me and they never ever disappoint. So fresh and scrumptious, I wouldn’t buy anywhere else.

Food & staff are lovely! Would recommend!

Love this place. Great food and friendly team, and the best coffee for miles! They also offer a catering service which we've used several times and has always been superb in every way.

Food nice but like everywhere expensive.

Superb food, superb service. Would 100% recommend

Food catered by Michelle was absolutely lovely, everything was so fresh and tasty, the presentation was so professional, it’s a place we’d always use in the future. Thank you Michelle for all your help. Sylvia

Lovely little deli with a great team offering super service. The salt beef bagels are a highlight💟

Thank you for my beautiful vegan breakfast box, I called last minute and asked for a little treat for my friends I arrived at delicacy this morning and this was what the had produced for me 100% I will be coming back

Absolutely love this place, literally a hidden gen. We get our lunch from here most days, everything here is soooo fresh. They are all so friendly, I just love their customer service always going over and above from each and every customer. I would like to thank, Fay, Jo, Chloe and (the amazing) Michelle! Thanks girlies for all the wonderful food and cakes from Michelle & Hinay P.s: We can't wait to visit again and grab their nutella heart biscuits for valentines day 😍👌🏼

This is a little gem,the food is the nuts and the girls spot on with,what a great place.

Staff was nice and polite but quality of the hot drinks are not worthy those prices. Unfortunately Place look messy to many stuff around, boxes, plates and who know what else. Display with the cakes also doesn’t look inviting coz even the labels are not visible, no prices nothing. Ladies touching hoover and then bagels, till and food. Very poor cleanliness standards which sound shame coz place have a huge potential to become premium place.

Amazing service. Products so fresh and beautifully presented. Highly recommended

Very comfy and cosy. Superb food and lovely staff. Will be visiting again soon.

They might have some good products, but the young women is very rude with customers…

Delicious fresh bagels and the friendliest service in Chigwell!

Myself, my partner and kids came here today for Afternoon tea. It was gorgeous, such a good price and beautiful food. The kids loved their jam rolls and was even given a huge cookie each to takeaway. Best scones I've ever had and the selection of cakes were amazing. Highly recommend here! So friendly and welcoming. I'll defo be back!

The salt beef is just amazing. I normally don’t like pickles, but it was so tasty that I finished the whole sandwich. Will definitely return. Thanks

Polite and helpful they have a wonderful selection of breads and cakes.

Excellent service! Amazing food!!

The afternoons teas are fabulous. So tasty, such a treat. So many lovely different things plus you can personalise, give them a ring and you can choose (within reason of course) . It’s fresh, it’s home baked, it’s tasty, it’s local. Fabulous 👏

Lovely shop full of lovely things however I was a little disappointed with the Smoked Salmon and cream cheese Bagel I had as there was hardly any filling!

I was recommended this lovely place by family, the staff are friendly and the trillionaire shortcake is on point but I forgot to get the jaffa cake so I will be going there again soon.

Fantastic staff that are always friendly and helpful!!! Would recommend there salt beef/Chicken Schnitzel every day of the week with a side of iced coffe :p

Great place to get afternoon tea there take away box sets are very very good

Amazing food and such lovely staff. Would definitely recommend ☺️❤️

Loved the food thank yo Michelle and team yummy short bread

Cannot thank the Delicacy team enough for their great service throughout the last year. From click and collect to delivering afternoon teas to housebound relatives. They have such a vast Deli selection the only issue is choosing what to order. Their slogan "Made with Love" rings true with every order we place Perfect every time

The one thing I miss now that I live Up North is Michelle fresh bagels and homecooked food. Her salt beef bagels fully loaded just makes my mouth water just thinking about them. A great local gem...... don't change !

Delicious afternoon tea! A genuine family run business full of love and generosity. Really rate these days. If you haven’t been why not?

Perfection! Great food, and the best bagels and cakes you will ever have. Lovely, helpful staff and very attentive. Super COVID secure and very helpful with any orders or requirements!

An absolute gem! What a great deli, Michele is very welcoming and friendly. Have used them on occasions to cater for parties and afternoon teas. Would definitely recommend, they also deliver locally which has been perfect for family members who have been shielding.

Best local cafe in the area! Quality fresh bagels! Love this place.

The BEST hot salt beef bagels, with all the toppings. Melt in the mouth 5*.

The best salt beef bagel ever!!!!! Amazing staff. Amazing Gem, a wonderful find!!!

Great shop. Lovely helpful staff, wonderfully fresh tasty food. Nothing is too much trouble. Nice coffee area too.

Wonderful shop for bagels and cakes lovely people

Quality is outstanding and we travel out of our way to get the delicious bread. Also alot of other extras and nibbles available.

Great food & great service. Nice staff all Covid secure

It is with a great heart to say thank you for the sandwich it was absolutely beautiful. Staff was so nice even tho it was very brief, I also recommend it to anyone in the Hainault Chigwell area.

Fabulous, friendly place. Salt beef bagel 10/10

Wow - what a find! I chose to contact this cafe during lockdown to see if they could deliver something to a friend. They were amazingly helpful and ever-so-quickly put together an afternoon tea which they boxed beautifully and delivered! My friend was delighted with the surprise and I wouldn’t hesitate to use the cafe again. Many thanks to Michele and her team!x

Service during this most difficult of times has been superb . Thank you all.

I get my daily coffee and weekly Bagels here. This is the best of homely food and coffees - but above all it’s the warm and friendly atmosphere at the cafe that makes it such a wonderful place.

This is just the best deli! You are always welcomed to Debbie's place with warmth, banter and delicious food. I would highly recommend 'The Full Jewish' as in the attached photo.

Absolutely beautiful food, if only we lived closer we would go there more often. The staff are superb, entertaining and friendly people. 100% the best place to visit with friends or family for a bit of lunch.

Cute little cafe, relatively small selection of food but was super tasty! Would definitely return. Had the Full Jewish which was great and also the salmon and cream cheese sandwich equally tasty. Good selection of cakes.

Lovely food, lovely staff highly recommend

Just bought some bagels and wish I’d bought 3 times as many. Delicious!! Will be back very soon

Friendly staff. Very limited menu if you're sitting down for something to eat but very tasty and fresh.

Salmon cutlets excellent freshly cooked today can't beat them.

very nice clean and very very tasty

Best bagels and cholla in Essex

Michelle, the owner, did the catering for our mother's 90th birthday celebration for 45 people. The food was delicious, the presentation beautiful and Jo the waitress was exceptionally accommodating and friendly. Even knew the children's names! There was a separate table of food for allergy sufferers. Highly recommended.

Great food good service fair prices

Fabulous deli produce top drawer. Bagels and bread best in Essex. Service excellent very welcoming and professional..highly recommend to everyone and will visit to try the fabulous cakes very soon 😊

Always fresh food and great service.

The only place I trust for my occasions - best caterers

Been coming here for years great food wonderful staff nice and chilled and relax place for a coffee and biegals

Wonderful food great service 😊😊😊

Excellent place. Lovely Bagels and platzels, Great staff and always a good sign when a place is busy. Great job.

First time I've been to this place and they let me have tea for free because I didn't have enough cash. I was with a regular of theirs but still, that is true hospitality. Very friendly indeed and if I wasnt being hurried away i would have outstayed my welcome oh yes I would have. It was raining but we wanted to sit outside and so they gave us bags to sit on. £1.60 for a slice of chocolate cake and a bottle of water? In Chigwell - where every other car is a brand new black Range Rover?!? Bargin!! The toilet was very interesting and had a huge display perfumes. You could slam the loo seat though. I didn't, out of respect.

The food from Delicacy is so very good and there are many different tastes on offer

Great place to get deli food and a coffee if you want.

Delicious coffee and smoked salmon bagels with cream cheese! 🥨

This is a great little coffee and sandwich place

Brilliant customer service!!!! Bagels are always lovely and freshly baked. Used them several times for party catering and they always go the extra mile in the presentation. They always suggest things that you wouldn't normally think of. Cannot recommend them enough!!!

Best bagels I've ever tired and the staff are delightful!

Great food great staff a must to go

Family atmosfere, great food. Lovly Micheal!!!

Super atmosphere and the staff are wonderful! A Jewish Deli at its best!

Personally presented food of a high quality. Scrambled eggs and smoked salmon was delicious. Coffee of good quality as well.
