DeliCafe in Wyre

This cafe is under new ownership (second week under the new regime) and it didn't disappoint. I visited with a friend at around 11.30am and it was quite busy both with customers eating in and those buying takeaway food too. My friend ordered the butter pie which was served with beetroot and grated cheese. It smelled delicious and was declared to be excellent by my companion. I opted for a blueberry scone and it was light and fluffy and "loaded" with blueberries. It was absolutely scrummy. A pot of tea and a huge cup of coffee completed our order and both were perfect. The takeaway counter was doing a roaring trade with salad boxes and other takeaway food. The menus for both eat in and takeaway were extensive and a wide range of goodies also listed on the specials board. In addition to all of this we received a friendly greeting and smile from the staff. Give it a try - you won't be disappointed!

New management working hard to maintain the excellent standards of the wonderful past. The place is an institution for discerning locals.

Last visit wasn’t so good, pleased to say this visit was back to a good standard.. Takeaway quiche & salad, spot on quiche & a good healthy portion of salad. Atmosphere in cafe much more relaxed than last time, I’m pleased to say.

A friend and I stopped for breakfast whilst we were taking part in a charity walk. We both had a full English breakfast and a pot of tea. The tea arrived within seconds in a proper pot, not a stainless steel tea pot! The food arrived pretty quickly. The breakfast was cooked properly, the portion size was good and they obviously buy local from suppliers who care about their product as much as the cafe staff do! As you can see from the attached photo, there was nothing left! We couldn't fault the food, or the service. I don't get into Garstang too often but I will make sure I visit the Deli Cafe when I do!

Very busy (frenetic) cafe on market day. The cafe is small & was full plus 4/5 people queuing for takeaways. It’s good it so busy but sure it could be less stressful as a customer. Food good, but small portion (quiche & salad), I used to struggle to eat this, not now. What was there was tasty & excellent quiche. The issue was the service, owner & daughter (?) bickering at each other isn’t nice to see or hear. I’m sure it’s meant in good humour but personally I find it uncomfortable. The way the daughter spoke to a customer over the price wasn’t great & then proceeded to have a rant about him to other customers when he’d left, again this was unacceptable. I’d hate to hear what she had to say about me after I’d left! Probably go again as nice food, but not looking forward to the Basil Fawlty approach to customer service.

Quick and efficient service in this friendly cafe. High quality produce and reasonable prices. The Quiche is fantastic with mixed salads. My wife had a superb roast beef sandwich as well. Very good coffee and tea. Great staff as well....One NOT to miss when in Garstang!

My lady had been here twice before so suggested give a visit as she had not been well and not eaten anything of note this week. Gosh is this a busy spot and deservedly so. E had fantastic quiche and I had a superb ham salad,unbelievable the sheer no of different salad elements provided and all assembled from the salad bar near to where you sit. None of this putting together in a non visible kitchen(this is a real + point).The service is exemplary, staff really pleasant and helpful. Gwen you really deserve nothing but praise and success for your lovely establishment. Also clear how you are an element of the local community almost knowing all your customers by their names. Well done,most certainly will be back

Always have lovely food here, the soups are home made, the quiche are fantastic, and the chocolate brownie are really really good

Lovely take away quiche & salad. Good sized portion for £8.50 & all really good. The range of salad is really good & varied. Cafe itself is small, but we’ll done.

A small family-run deli-cafe offering quality food in a cosy friendly environment. We are regulars here and enjoy the soups, the roast beef and onion sandwiches and quiche salads especially. For desserts there are normally a range of cakes & tarts, and of course Gwen's famous blueberry scones. Well-behaved dogs are welcome too. Downsides - opening hours are short, and payment by cash only.

Visited this small, but very friendly cafe, whilst on a visit to Garstang with my son. It was a terrible wet day and we wanted something to warm us up. It was busy as lunchtime but the ladies quickly found us a table at the back. We were shown the menu on the blackboard on the wall. My son had a sausage sandwich on a white bun - the quality of the ingredients was very good. I chose the hot beef and onion sandwich, which contained plenty of meat and onions. We were both offered condiments, but declined. I did think the food was overpriced as literally a sandwich on a plate with very little presentation - maybe a few crisps or garnish could be added. However, overall good service but if in Garstang again I think would try other cafes after reading reviews on here of other places.

Another lunch time visit (takeaway). The cafe has had a bit of a decorate / rework & looks much better. I think there is now a little more seating inside, which is a good move. Homemade quiche & salad, excellent. My only observation is that the salad portion size was definitely smaller this time than any other visit. Staff very friendly.

Visited Garstang for the first time today and came across the cafe. What an absalute find. The food was Absalutely outstanding and the portions were huge. As for the staff well they were just fabulous. Great customer service from start to finish. You must be very proud of an absalute fantastic cafe. We will definitely be returning 😊 Thanku again

This was our first visit for a light lunch. The roasted cauliflower and Stilton soup was delicious! The hot roast beef and onion sandwiches so tasty! The lemon meringue finished off a wonderful mouth explosion of flavours. Our tea was served in a china teapot with china cups and refills. Thank you for such a lovely experience with excellent customer service from such a friendly team! See you soon The Lovely Ladies 😊

This is a little gem, always busy. We had takeaway homemade quiche with salad £8. Top notch & good portion, salad good & tasty. Staff are friendly & work hard. Worth seeking out, get there early if you want a table as it’s pretty small & as I said always busy, & the reason for that is that it’s an excellent independent cafe.

This is the most amazing place. The food is delightful, and all home made. Very welcoming, came today and was allowed to sit with the dogs in the little cottage style garden in the rear. It was beautiful and sunny. The staff are so friendly. Always love to come here from Blackpool..the lovely lady even offered us refills of coffee, she is just lovely and very dog friendly. The quiche was beautiful, probably the best quiche I have ever had and hubby was impressed with his beef sandwich which came on a large roll. The salads are so beautifully put together with lovely fresh produce always. It is the best place ever. Thankyou for all your hard work and keep up the good work. Amazing!

IF YOU WANT SERVICE , CIVILITY, COURTESY AND A WIDE SELECTION OF MAIN MEALS DO NOT GO NEAR THIS PLACE.They are currently running a policy of minimum order. "No main meal, no entry"Although the hospitality industry has suffered through the pandemic and our thoughts are with establishments as they attempt to recover, we do have serious doubts about this particular outfit and the owners attempts to win back custom.We were told to find somewhere else to eat and to leave the shop immediately when a civil complaint was raised.Needless to say, our family WILL find somewhere to eat in future. Our (regular) business is lost forever.

Brilliant service and very dog welcome cafe and our hot chocolates were too sweet we would of liked extra milk and fresh cream and marshmallows on the top would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to visit garstang

We called in for breakfast / brunch on Saturday.We both had poached eggs on toast with bacon. Like last time absolutely spot on.Staff excellent, very chatty & engaging.We had a salad & salt & pepper chips to eat later, healthy portions & superb.I personally think this is the best cafe in Garstang.

Been here a couple of times since moving to the area.Quiche is homemade & beautiful.I had poached eggs most recently, cooked to perfection on hand cut local granary toast, could not have been better.Coffee was great & my wife enjoyed her tea in a proper china cup.This type of business really needs our support post lockdown, it’s sort wont survive unless we support them & quickly. Give them your trade otherwise the high street in Garstang will be the poorer for its loss.

Found this place via tripadvisor, so knew the soups were good, but the spicy tomato and lentil was absolutely fantastic! All the food looked fresh and tasty, with a really good selection of savoury and sweet stuff. Nice to have a chat with the staff too. Clearly well loved by the locals in the village, so I'm glad to have stumbled in on the best kept secret they have!

This gem of a cafe is quickly becoming my go to place for quick delicious home cooked food.The staff are delightful, pleasant, kind and down to earth and it feels like a home from home thanks to the warm welcome everyone receives!As for the food my top tip is go early- such is the popularity of this place and the quality of the food the best dishes sell quickly!If you love home baked food and cakes this place will not disappoint- amongst a menu of home cooked delicacies there is an array of mouth watering treats and their quiche is quite simply the best I have ever tasted anywhere- it’s divine- a little taste of paradise with every bite:- it really is that good (cream cheese and spinach is my fave)If you have room for dessert then their selection of cakes will leave you in no doubt - they are just liked grandma used to make :-there really is nothing like the fresh light airy texture and delicious farm fresh lashings of cream, with fresh local raspberries cascading out of their Victoria sponge.Quite simply divine the five star rating doesn’t do the food justice!

Called in for lunch, all three of us opted for small mushroom soup with smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwiches. The soup was just perfect, beautifully seasoned and a real winter warmer. The smoked salmon an cream cheese sandwiches, seasoned with black pepper and lemon, were generously filled and just delicious. They came with a lovely side salad, coleslaw and couscous.To follow, one chose Victoria sponge and another chose blackcurrant tart with cream Neither disappointed. The sponge was a light as air and filled with a tasty raspberry jam and fresh cream. The blackcurrant tart was a crisp and thin pastry case oozing with fruit. Friendly and witty service made this an all-round happy eating experience and we will be back!

We had a lovely lunch at this local cafe. The place was very busy with lots of locals lining up, but most of them were taking their lunch with them, so we were able to get a table. We sat right in the window with a pleasant outlook out into the town square area. The service was friendly - we had our orders taken at our table, and despite it being a busy time, our meals came out quickly. The portions were generous. My husband ordered quiche and salad - there were three quiches to choose from and the accompanying salad portion was large and varied. I ordered the soup and sandwich option - once again, there were three different sandwich options (tuna, cheese or ham) and three choices of soup. I went for the spicy Thai soup which was tasty. I was surprised to discover that I also received a selection of salads with my meal - a very substantial and tasty lunch. For those like me who are not local - I often forget that a cheese sandwich in this part of the world can mean a grated cheese sandwich which always comes as something of a disappointment. I should remember to ask first. The bread was lovely - not just brown, but with grains. The coffee was really not good, but again, that is not unusual in this part of the world and you are probably better to stick to tea, as my husband did, rather than hold out for a cafe that serves reasonable coffee. Garstang is a pleasant small town with a narrow high street that features many pubs and a few cafes. However despite enjoying our lunch at Delicafe, I don’t think we would make this town a stopping off point while driving north in future - parking being the main issue. We drove for some distance from the nearest off ramp on the M6, the town parking was at the other end of the high street from the cafe and was expensive - but having charged a high rate, the toilets in the car park then required us to pay and to have the right coins. Garstang is clearly not in the business of welcoming passing travellers.

We chose this cafe from Tripadvisor as our lunch destination for our bike ride and we're really glad we did. The friendly owner and staff welcome you as you walk in the door, but not in a pushy way. We had a delicious big slice of fresh, warm quiche with a wide variety of fresh salads. The food looks delicious, and the taste does not disappoint! Watching the staff prepare fresh food for the customers with a real but casual attention to detail is a delight. They slice the bread freshly for sandwiches, and slice the ham by hand too. This cafe is certainly on our radar for future visits.

Called at this cafe a couple of years ago and enjoyed a memorable homemade Lentil & Bacon soup so on a return visit to Garstang recently we just had to pop in for lunch again and we were equally delighted this time we went for the Lentil & Veg soup which was equally delicious. Lovely little deli cafe, pleasant friendly staff. I took a piece of the Victoria sponge home for my husband of which he thinks he is a connoisseur and he wasn't disappointed. Definitely a must on our next visit to Garstang.

Super staff ,super homemade food ,if you are in Garstang don't hesitate make sure you call in if its only for a coffee. The food is firstclass. The only problem is you may not get a table always busy and I think they shut at about 2 in the afternoon.

Went to Garstang market today and popped in this cafe for a coffee. We were greeted wth a smile and a very sincere welcome from all the staff. The atmosphere of the place made us decide to have some lunch here and the staff were great, please sit down we will come to take your order and they did. We had two salads my husband had the sweet chilli chicken and I had the rare roast beef. Both were very good with plenty of meat and a great variety of accompaniments on the plate not just the usual leaves, tomato and cucumber.During the time that we were in the cafe the staff were chatting and including us in their banter making us both feel very comfortable, a lovely atmosphere. All the baked goods looked delicious too but off limits for us. As we were going to pay the bill we noticed that they even sell free range eggs so we bought a dozen.I would recommend this cafe to people very friendly and the food was very good.

Went for lunch there and I loved it! It's small so you may struggle to find seating, but it's well worth waiting for a table.I had the soup and sandwich; a rare beef sandwich with parsnip soup and salad etc on the side. Every mouthful was delicious and the beef was absolutely top quality. All the deli food looked mouth watering, I could literally have eaten my lunch again it was that nice. Unfortunately I didn't have a cake after as had to get going but they looked amazing. Can't rate this place enough. The staff were really friendly and helpful too.

Very good salads and cakes. Lovely staff.who understood their products and were willing to help you.

Love the food at the deli. All home cooked and tastes amazing! The soups are also very tasty and homemade; cakes and scones are fabulous.

food was good, service was quick but one of the ladies serving was rolling her eyes when asked questions about the menu and I thought she was gonna tell me off me if I chose the wrong bread

The title says it all really!! The best cheese and onion pie around. Great tasting, big portion and nice side of beetroot.

Visité este lugar por primera vez para un bocado ligero en el almuerzo de hoy. Tuvimos el enrollado de pollo giro. Fue absolutamente de primera clase. La excelente calidad y presentación de la comida es realzado por primera clase servicio de mesa. Aunque esta es una cafetería muy pequeña, es simplemente perfecto. Yo sin duda volveremos pronto que tarde.

Primera visita aquí, entramos pasado muchas veces pero siempre lleno, tuvimos suerte hoy. Tuve un delicioso queso de cabra con arándanos y quiché de ensalada, y mi hermana tenía queso y espinacas con ensalada de quiché. Ambos excelentes, definitivamente regresaremos, espero que la próxima vez será capaz de manejar uno de los pasteles de precioso.

Loved this little cafe, good selection and quality food along with friendly welcoming staff and lovely ambience, everything you want from a village cafe

A wonderful place for breakfast,coffee,lunch,tea and amazing cakes.Friendly staff very comfortable surroundings. Take away menu is large and every thing is fresh. A perfect place to rest after looking around Garstang.

popped in for a coffee whilst in garstang and ended up having lunch. Food lovely and staff extremely friendly and welcoming - thank you

Having popped in here several times over the last few months I can recommend it as a great place to eat, friendly service, fresh food, brilliant cakes and a lovely atmosphere. So many cafes get things wrong by charging premium prices for average food, delicafe doesn't!

Café is way too small, unable to relax/unwind, as passing customers continually bump into you. Coffee was not of a good quality either, which is most important when you are paying reasonable/barista prices…. Very Disappointing! There are lots of better (more spacious) Café’s in Garstang, where you can relax/unwind and enjoy a proper coffee without feeling like you're 'penned-in'.

Delicious deli always something tasty and a little bit special to choose from.Lovely friendly people I always come out of the shop with a smile clutching my chosen lunch of the day, the salad and quiches I must admit are my favourite although there is plenty to choose from and as a special treat sometimes sit in to dine ,I rate it 5 stars

Gwen Dunn has been running the Deli for circa three or four years now, and I have been a customer from almost day one...calling in for a bite to eat at lunchtime when I worked in Garstang centre, and sincere "retiring" calling in for lunch two, sometimes three times a week.The food is excellent. Gwen, daughter Jane and grandson Ryan make a good team...with contrasting personalities. The takeaway side of the Deli is always busy with shop and office workers from the town...the proof of the pudding (and all other dishes) is surely in the popularity of the place. I particularly like the quiches and salads. Can't praise the place enough.I'm clicking the "solo" button for this, but I am often in with friends or family. If I have friends visiting I usually go to the Deli.

What a Great little place, Very Friendly atmosphere and great food and brews. You are always made welcome. Will keep going back.

Wonderful cafe, had the Roast Pork, Apple and Stuffing which was delicious, friendly staff and the best food in garstang, would definately return

I work locally and visit the deli most lunchtimes . Food is always divine - fresh and homemade . Lovely friendly staff . A pleasure to visit !

I dont know why I haven't written a review before...the company of the staff is as fantastic as the food... I am a regular visitor of at least once a week and my favourite of hot beef and onion baguette is to die for... I look forward to a latte as they make it just perfect An added bonus is they allow well behaved dogs in when quiet which for me as a dog owner/walker means a treat after a long walk...

What a find! Lovely little deli in the middle of Garstang, had a lovely lunch on Saturday, broccoli & Stilton soup and delicious rare beef sandwich, to top it off had the most amazing chocolate brownie couldn't fault it! Everyone was pleasant and friendly! Lovely fresh homemade food! Would definitely recommend it!

Popped in on my lunch break the place looks very clean however feels abit cramped, I went for the leak and potato soup which may as well have been potato soup! Very tasteless and felt pricey, I think this place is definitely trying to be something's it's not! Won't return

After reading great review after great review of this little family run cafe, I decided to pay it a visit. I'm so glad I did. It didn't disappoint in any way. The food was fresh and made everyday by the proprietor (I think she was called Gwen) and what a lovely lady she was! She made us feel most welcome. The banter with her and the rest of the staff made a relaxed atmosphere and perfect for a lunch time venue. I had a lovely Halloumi cheese salad. It was delightful. Followed by a beautiful moist blueberry scone with lashings of clotted cream.

I wish I lived nearer as the food is amazing . All homemade and so tasty . The Leek and Potato Soup and the Chocolate sponge were fab. I also had salad which was so fresh . The staff are great too !! Thanks guys for a lovely lunch.

A small but cosy place for delicious bite to eat. Very friendly staff as we felt very welcomed. This place is definitely worth a visit.

Always had good food and coffee in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. It is a 'must visit' when in Garstang.

Fabulous food, very varied and all 'home cooked' eat in or take away, choose your own salad box, lovely breads, superb cakes and soups

I came here after a long day of wedding dress shopping it was such a cosy place we chose gingerbread latte and Stilton and walnut quiche. It was lovely and the service was matched with excellent customer service. The food came and it was not just a little helping of lettuce, cucumber and tomato it included pasta salad, coleslaw and amongst other items it was lovely.

I don't know why I have not reviewed this cafe before. I seem to have been going there for years on a regular basis and feel like one of the family who own and run it. I have yet to find fault with anything there - the food, the atmosphere, the service - and most of all in my case, their kindness when going through difficult times - including provision for my wife's wheelchair and their careful attention to her needs, leaves me full of gratitude.The attention to detail and the variety of delicious offerings is remarkable for such a compact facility - recently altered to rationalize seating. Lunchtime is sometimes cheerfully hectic as they provide take-away lunches for many-a shop, office or workshop in the area, whilst dealing with those happy customers who choose to dine-in. Well done Team Gwen. Your hard work has achieved the results you deserve.

Called In at Garstang Deli for lunch today. What a lovely clean and friendly place to dine It Is.Al the food Is prepared and cooked fresh daily on the premises. The home made soup of the day was delicious and came with fresh chunky brown bread and butter. I then decided to to order a cold rare beef and stilton sandwich with one of the best selection is salads anywhere.After a read of the Free daily provided, I ordered a freshly ground coffee, which apparently Is made with Love! and a fantastic fruit Tart and cream.Thankyou very much Garstang Deli, I shall be back soon. David James

Little gem on the high street, where most of the customers seemed to be regulars, both for eating in and takeaway. Selection of food was excellent as was the quality, great friendly atmosphere, next visit to Garstang, we shall be returning.

Really friendly staff, excellent variety of delicious cakes and savoury snacks. It's always a case of having to decide between several temptations rather than trying to find something I fancy. Can't wait to go back!

Stopped here for lunch on a very chilly Saturday. It's small, but with 4 or 5 tables there was still space for us.A wide selection of jacket potatoes, salads, sandwiches and toasties and with most of the fillings on display and a specials board.We both opted for hotpot and it arrived very quickly. A bit plateful with a slab of bread and butter. Delicious.Very attentive staff

Visit this lovely deli cafe on a regular basis as its always scrummy tasty food. Everything home made and their soups are lovely. Never been disappointed. Service is good and all staff are very freindly. Would recommend to everyone

After a lovely walk around Garstang, was disappointed to see a notice saying there is a minimum spend of £4 per person - the first time I've ever known this in a cafe. All my party of 4 wanted was a pot of tea and one of their lovely fruit scones each (cost £2.45 ppn). Don't think you should penalise people just because your cafe is small. Could be put off this town 'cos searching for a cafe for a cuppa seems impossible.

A small place with just a few tables but it is worth the squeeze to eat here. The café part is amalgamated with the shop which does a good take away trade, not surprising really as the food is home made , freshly prepared and very tasty. Realistically priced for a "deli", good coffee. Will return if I can get in!

After moving to Australia and re visiting Garstang for Christmas I was thrilled to find some things just don't change. The food at the deli cafe is delicious and the staff are a delight. Good value, great homemade fresh food and service with a smile. The damson tart is the best ever.

This is a revelation. All homemade food, home roasted joints of meat, coleslaw, salad boxes, paninis, soup, cakes, the list is endless. Delicious and somewhere i will be returning.

I visited today with my wife and a couple of friends. The cafe does take away and eat in. The food is good honest home cooked fair. Home made doesn't always mean good, but at Delicafe the food is first class. Sandwiches, soups, home made cakes etc are the order of the day. salads, Hand carved ham and beef on the counter are mouth watering. We had soup. Chicken-vegetable broth and sweet potato with beetroot, served with doorsteps of fresh brown bread. Both were delicious as were the home made scones my friend had. We all had something hot and nourishing with a really nice cuppa and it cost about a fiver each. Great value. The service was also quick and friendly. Be aware though there is only seating for about a dozen, so you will need to keep a close eye for a table at busy times.
