Oblio's Deli and Bistro in South Kesteven

Lovely atmosphere. We had jacket potatoes which were nice. Served with salad Our food was ready very fast in spite of place being full. Spacious and homely.

Lovely homemade food,had the 1/2 soup 1/2 sandwich, great quality and really tasty, pleasure to actually have a hot coffee in a restaurant. Staff helpful and friendly, a real gem

This has to be the best coffee shop in Grantham! We were welcomed immediately and when I asked if we could come in with a dog, we were welcomed again! It’s a great space: sit indoors, or outside under a roof or fully open air. We just wanted a coffee but we’re tempted by a pain au chocolate and carrot cake. My pain au choc was warmed and delicious. The carrot cake, we discovered, was a family recipe. Not to be missed. And our dog was not left out: she was brought her own biscuit. We left feeling part of a great family. Go and enjoy!

I have been to this restaurant many times, and always had good food. Today, I felt I had to write a review as the Ham and Cheese Omelette I had today was the tastiest I have ever had. I would give it 10/10. Delicious.

Fantastic cafe /restaurant offering a variety of food and drink hot and cold , the staff are very attentive and cafe itself is very comfortable and welcoming..... highly recommended.

We come here a lot as my little boy loves it. The food is great, can be a little hit and miss. Some days seem better than others. We love the friendly staff and the apple cake is delicious. The only thing that puts me off coming is the high chairs- grubby and not very safe- I am petrified little girl will fall out- cheap ikea chairs would be a good replacement. Also they have a changing mat but no where to put it apart from the floor- who wants to change a baby on a public toilet floor?

Excellent food, drinks and staff could not have been more helpful. Highly rated, would go back again soon

I like this place but it has a serious issue with food. The decor is nice and the owner is too, the coffee is the best in Grantham. We stopped eating here, not because the food is bad but because it takes forever, if it comes at all. The running of the kitchen is a major problem. I’ve frequently seen people walk out after a hour or so of waiting and today my son and I did the same, after waiting 50 minutes for a bacon roll. The cafe was only a third full. There is a sign saying “this isn’t fast food and it’s cooked fresh”, I don’t mind waiting for freshly cooked food but this sign is being used to cover the sins in the kitchen. It needs a proper chef and until that happens the food will be a major problem. It’s so frustrating as it could be great.

Nice friendly staff, good variety of food, service quick and efficient. Good options for gluten free.

2 of us went for Sunday Brunch. We were the only 2 people in there and it still took about 10 minutes to get served. Staff don’t seem to be educated on what food is gluten free and what isn’t. A couple of tables left before even ordering anything. I can see why the cafe a few doors down is packed. The breakfast was very poor, not tasty at all, the eggs were especially bad quality (very rubbery and artificial). Will not be returning.

Visited here for lunch on a Saturday, as we do every couple of months, have to say today was a big disappointment for us. It was busy as usual, they do have a sign up saying " we are not fast food, so in busy times there may be a delay" which we know. However, today we waited 50mins for a sandwich and salad, we were not informed of our wait whilst ordering. The girls do work hard but there never appears to be someone actually in charge. Once we got our food, the actual bread of the tuna sandwich was hard and cold ( it's normally so soft, Hambleton bread) but as we had waited so long and by now were hungry, there was no chance we would send it back! Will we return, probably, but not for a while, there are plenty other places in Grantham to visit.

We went for breakfast, what an absolute waste of money, I can see why they only managed a 2 hygiene rating, terrible.

Entered the cafe, first sign on wall, if you have any allergies or dietary requirements speak to our staff. Waitress came over my husband ordered the breakfast, I asked could I have a vegan breakfast? Sure was what I got back we ordered a pot of tea and a cappuccino with oat milk. Both arrived only issue was the ‘vegan’ one had fried egg and halloumi on it, I said to the same waitress, I asked for vegan and pointed to the egg and halloumi, she then said we don’t do vegan breakfast (why not say that when I was ordering) she went on to say I can take the egg and halloumi off but then you won’t have much. She really didn’t grasp the request of a vegan meal, she was totally unhelpful and quite argumentative. My husbands breakfast wasn’t the best for some reason the mushrooms were cooked with an abundance of dried herbs which really wasn’t pleasant. Ended up an expensive waste of almost £26, we won’t be going back.

My wife and I wanted a nice breakfast and as I hadn’t tried this place before I decided to try it. It was almost empty on a Sunday morning and when I saw the price of breakfast I thought it quite expensive at £9-95. In any case we both ordered breakfast, it took an eternity to come even though no one else appeared to be ordering hot food. When the breakfast arrived it looked very unappetising. Dark baked beans which apparently were “homemade “ no mention of this on the menu. They were sweet and tasted awful, we both left them. A mountain of black tasteless mushrooms, a fried egg both of which were hard not runny and also poor quality bacon and sausage. £25-20 for two coffees and by far the worst breakfast both of us have ever had. We are local and won’t be recommending this place to anyone.

If you are looking for a delicious smackerel for lunch, a good American breakfast, a slice of cake or simply the best, hottest coffee in town then head to Oblio’s. Indoors is air conditioned and spotless. The courtyard pretty with sunshine and potted plants. Food is always fresh and tasty. The staff are welcoming and courteous….isn’t it nice to be greeted with a smile? Your well- behaved doggie friend is welcomed, and there is internet connection. What more is there?

The subject of the review says it all really. Now, I know you are thinking that I'm over stating things and whilst it may be true that there is somewhere serving a better example of this meal, I feel confident in saying that you would...

Visited for lunch yesterday, still entry of tables available, asked about menu, was told on main counter, find a table when ready come up to counter and place order and pay, very limited menu on display, and was very disappointed not to see some form...

We enjoyed a wonderful Oblio’s breakfast. The granary toast was delicious and the sausages and baked beans are amazing! Lovely staff and efficient service in a relaxing environment.

What an amazing double bacon cheeseburger I had today. I mean I make these things for myself. The burger x 2 was well made and real Chips were great Service was epic

Average lunch, not much choice in menu, expensive and bland. Dry bread and tasteless fillings. Customer service poor apart from one of the waitresses.

Sadly this is the second time in the last month that I’ve been here and it was not great. The first time on a hot sunny day I sat outside with a friend and it took a whole hour for the food to arrive. The...

Went to meet up with friends, hubby had beef and horseradish and I had tuna mayo sandwiches followed by chocolate brownie caked. Dogs allowed indoors and outdoors, quality ingredients, no rush to get you out and lovely friendly staff. Beautiful courtyard out the back.

Tasty, high quality food. Friendly owner, great service. Tasteful decor and high standard of cleanliness. Very attractive outdoor seating area.

Had a great time at this establishment, food was great especially the beans from their breakfast, staff were lovely and attentive and service was great. Had a great chat with the owner about how business has been, how the pandemic is affecting the catering business...

Lovely little cafe with excellent food. We had breakfast options which were really tasty. The staff were friendly and the service was very good. Would recommend.

Really friendly staff and great room, also a lovely outdoor seating. Opened up early for me as i was just looking for a nice place to wait an hour or two

Prices were pretty steep, wish I had realised before going in. I mean, £5.99 for a slice of toast with scrambled egg on it? Same, if I’d had beans on toast! Ouch! My husband had toast and jam, we had tea and coffee, total bill...

What a delightful little place. For those who worry about the covid situation. Don’t. No pressure to sign in and no pressure to walk in wearing a mask. A breath of fresh air. Absolutely perfect. Would we go again? Definitely.

Just had the very best pancakes with maple syrup, plus a side order of bacon. Delicious! Three large buttermilk pancakes and freshly cooked bacon. What’s not to live? And the coffee is good and plentiful. Who needs to go to the Bay Area for breakfast?

We stopped here this morning for coffee and a chai latte, in their beautiful garden. The drinks were great, the service very friendly and we felt very welcomed by everyone, even though we were obviously not local. I definitely recommend this and hope we'll be...

No one to greet us on entering and no one particular interested in serving us. Ordered and paid for food at the counter, which arrive 25 minutes later. Food very disappointing. Side salads were just lettuce(no dressing) no butter or chutney on the platter and items that should have been warm were cold. No one came to see if food was ok, they were more interested in chatting behind the counter. Safe to say we won’t be going back again. 0/10

Excellent social distancing arrangements. Friendly welcoming staff. Jacket potato perfect. Toasted meatloaf wow. Full of fruit. You must visit here.

We popped in for a hot chocolate and BLT and a bowl of curried carrot soup, everything was tasty and was just what the doctor ordered, plus the had gluten free bread fantastic, service was excellent too.

Food and coffee very nice, service good nice staff. Unfortunately so cold in there 🥶 Will go back in summer perhaps 🤷🏼‍♀️

We are regulars. Food, Drink and service is consistently excellent. Staff always kind and friendly. Many Thanks.

We were disappointed on our last visit to find that the bistro had moved but was not yet open, so were delighted to find that it's business as usual in their new, larger premises with a garden area at the back. So good we went there twice during our short stay!

This is a good cafe for a light lunch, I particularly like the soup and sandwich option, and the homemade soup always tastes good. The new premises are spacious and pleasant.

Fabulous new cafe - good value , quality breakfasts , no music , good space between tables and super service. Loved the American pancakes!

Basically go every chance I get for a nice latte from oblios, would recommend a visit if your in the area

We’re regulars, mostly on a Saturday morning. The relaxed atmosphere, great coffee and cakes, newspapers and good value are always there. Great service too.

My wife took me here for lunch on my birthday. Grantham has seen better days, and the high street looks a little tired. But this little bistro is different. so seek it out. It does not have a manufactured atmosphere, it is not full of loud bright young things sitting in a dimly-lit darkly-decorated room. It is bright, clean and refreshingly airy. The food is good and the staff are friendly and helpful. We had a soup and a half sandwich and a coffee all delicious and all for a price that did not break the bank. Everything came quickly - well done Oblios

As locals we always regularly have a stop off at a café in town.Thought we would try here now that they have moved - how wrong we were to do so !Cappuchino was very weak ,our simple order took ages to arrive & was wrong so we had finished our coffee ,was never offered a top up of coffee to have with our food.Many tables had dirty pots waiting to be collected.Staff didnt seem to have any interest in service or customer interaction.No toilet paper in toilets even though it was only mid morning.At the previous location they had a big selection on their deli cabinet but nothing like that now.Needless to say we will not be returning

We were regular visitors at the previous location. We love the new set up. Plenty of character still and now more space. Visit Oblios if you want high quality food and service in a relaxed setting. Always fun to catch up with Steve, the proprietor. Had the white hot chocolate today- a delicious, sweet treat. And the blueberry and lemon cake was fabulous.

Popped in for first time and had small soup ( pumpkin ) which was delicious and half a prawn sandwich again delicious.

Never been before this visit,food was excellent,quick service,nice friendly staff and will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family.

A snack lunch here is worth every penny of the most reasonable prices. Good home prepared and cooked food is worth waiting for. Not the first visit and it won’t be the last.

New premises new start I hoped. We went there for lunch, but won't return.

The new layout is good and the menu is much smaller. Unfortunately we saw a girl behind the counter putting her hands in her mouth and then running her hands through her hair, before continuing to make toast. I had a Chorizo and manchego sandwich was dry with huge wedges of cheese in. Parts of the salad that came with it were brown. The bread was also so thickly cut I couldn't finish it all. However, my son had a halloumi and olive sandwich which he enjoyed, and my partner like his roast beef and horseradish sandwich.

Went for a late midweek lunch, so - after the lunchtime rush. We found dirty, uncleared tables; and lots of staff chatting behind the counter. Really average menu. Long wait for food, which really wasn't up to much when it did arrive. There's just no atmosphere in this new place and the management have just lost the character with the move to larger premises. Ironically, the deli counter is a lot smaller so there was less of a selection to catch the eye, as a take-away. The pictures heading this review are all from the old place - and I'd go back there like a shot. But no, we won't be trying here again.

Having regularly visited the old Oblios, we went for our first visit to the new place. Disappointed . Ran out of soup about 12oclck the staff said-we went for the half soup half sandwich combo. . . Not well signed inside as to where to find a menu etc. Then searched for some small biscuits they used to sell - none found here and much less stock for sale. Large lattes turned up -the same size as Starbucks SMALL and definitely smaller than before. Really disappointed as I would only come to Grantham for this & that seems less likely now...

Couldn’t actually eat - tables not cleared and no high chairs. Place appears to be entirely staffed by sixth formers - asked for a high chair and was told to look for one - no menus. Staff appeared to be trained in the ancient art of ignorance and ignoring customers

Service was slow, order was mucked up. Beef was like a piece of old tough leather. Won't be going again.

Haven’t been before as we usually go to Retox across the road. Ordered tea and 2 sandwiches. Tea was forgotten. One sandwich was wrong. (Although food was tasty) Table was dirty. For a Saturday lunchtime it wasn’t good enough.

We were told a jacket potato would be a 20 minute wait so order sandwiches instead..... which took over half an hour to arrive. When they did, the bread smelt of cigarette smoke! It was clear the food had been made and handled by someone who had been smoking and not washed their hands. We were refunded our money and were told they would ‘make a note of it’, and left having had no lunch.

Amazing food and fantastic service Very friendly staff thank you for a really enjoyable meal The figs were to die for

What a rare treat this little deli is...I thoroughly enjoyed the quirky Ploughman's salad; it was laden with quality cheese and the Plum Bread is simply to die for. Aside to the great food, it was lovely to see the young adults serving with courtesy and genuine engagement. Can't wait to take the family in next time.

Oblios is something of an oasis on Grantham high street. Visit Oblios if you want high quality food and service in a relaxed setting. We live the American pancakes with chocolate chip pieces and/ or blueberries and maple syrup on the side. And the ploughman’s salads are excellent.

It must be a Grantham thing but unfortunately another nice place spoiled by a noisy fridge humming and buzzing away!

People local to Grantham and Stamford will know of an establishment called Hambleton Bakery. They provide expensive quality bread, rolls pastries etc which are organic. If I visit the establishment I either go to the main bakery near Cottesmore or use their shop in Stamford. My wife then was very pleased when she found that this establishment sold Hambletons bread, and subsequently purchased a loaf for around £3.40.

just got a really nice cheddar cheese and sun-dried tomato salad sandwich a fantastic nomel but vegaterean daylight with good quality cheddar cheese.want to say thank you for a nice lunch and your amazing customer service

My friend and I popped in for coffee, and while my cappuccino tasted good, I felt it could have been hotter. As we probably visited earlier than most people stop for morning coffee, there weren't many other customers, but the place has a good feel about it.

In a town that is becoming, sadly, a bit tired, this place stands out like a beacon of light as far as deli-type food is concerned.

This is a lovely little café with helpful and cheerful staff. We had a lovely brunch/late breakfast and the place was buzzing when we left. Highly recommended.

Living in Grantham, my family, friends and i frequent Oblios regularly.

En primer lugar debo confesar que soy parcial! ¿Por qué? Bueno, me gusta la buena comida, y cuando se trata con un excelente ambiente tienes que decir algo, no usted. Como un almuerzo ordinario diner desarrollar un olfato para lo que es bueno, y también de lo que no es tan bueno! La industria alimenticia tiene un recorrido un largo camino en los últimos 10 años y de Oblio es un clásico ejemplo de cómo debería ser un bistro. Tuve una comida sencilla, que era un sándwich, llegó con algunas ensaladas y col. Nada inusual en mi selección, pero la calidad de la comida era excepcional. El sándwich era excelente, llena de sabor, el pan era fantástica y el contenido fresco y agradable. La joya de esta corona fue la col en particular. Tenía un sabor único que complementa mi sándwich y hizo que la experiencia encantadora. Se podría pensar que este fuera; ligeramente por encima para un sándwich, así ¿por qué no? Buena comida debe ser aplaudido, sea cual sea.

Mientras que visitan mis padres que viven en la zona teníamos recorrían Oblio's Deli, un par de veces y ya se había puesto de nuestro ojo. Hoy hicimos una visita propositivo alrededor de las 3:00 pm en un sábado y estaban muy contentos de haberlo hecho. Mi esposa y mi hija de 4 años ya había comido el almuerzo, así que pedimos un bocadillo de bacon y Brie Deli y un café Moka para compartir. El tamaño de la porción es muy generoso. El brie que utilizaban en el Brie de Meaux sándwich era lo que fue una agradable sorpresa, sin embargo, resultó ser demasiado potente en sabor para mi esposa. Hablé con el dueño, Steve, y él de buena gana la mitad del sándwich para intercambiar un suave regular/Brie. El Moka café era prácticamente la mejor que he probado, no es una exageración. Sin duda regresaré allí de nuevo en nuestra próxima visita a la zona. Bien hecho a Steve y su equipo, buena suerte para el futuro!

I went to collect a pre-ordered lunch which is a favourite for our corporate events. It didn't disappoint but I was shocked at the behaviour of the boss/manager to the woman who served me. She belittled her staff and was basically rude. I found myself giving support through a few words to the employee who behaved totally professionally while her superior basically snarled at her from the back of the prep area. Very unsettling so I'm still thinking about it a week later totally inappropriate. Will think hard before going again.

There are a few points that stood out to me:1. I was planning on ordering some pancakes for my wife and children. When ordering, I was advised the pancakes were quite large and it would save waste if I ordered smaller ones for the girls. This saved me money and meant they valued saving waste more than money.2. I had a bacon and egg roll. Not sure how but it was the best I've tasted. Cooked to perfection.3. Some lads were trying to cause trouble outside the cafe so the owner immediately went out and sorted it out resulting in a nice relaxing atmosphere.All in all, very much recommended and brilliant service with a smile. We'll be taking some family friends when they visit next year for sure.p.s There's also something special about ordering American Pancakes and them being cooked fresh by an American ;)

Just random place we stopped by for lunch as it looked nice from outside and I'll be going back there till I try everything on the menu! Very English style home cooked food with great friendly service. What a wonderful place. I ordered just savory scone with onion marmalade but I saw what other people were eating plus my hubby ordered salad and I couldn't take my eyes off it all the time he has been eating it.

Try the broccoli and Stilton soup here!...tried it on a whim this week , and wasn't disappointed....rich , tasty and very 'more-ish'.....followed it up with the ham and Stilton ploughmans....a big plate of goodness too....and the coffee is good!

I enjoyed my drink here at Oblio's. When I looked at the food it looked very tasty but unfortunately I didnt have any. People I saw having food looked as if they hd good portions and looked presented well!

We stopped at Oblio's on a trip upto York and choose sandwiches which included halloumi with olives and blue cheese with red onion chutney. Lovely fresh bread cut in generous thick slices served with fresh salad and coleslaw. Much better than the more widely known national chains. We will definitely visit again.

I come on a regular basis to this cafe, on my own or with the family. We are always welcome and always met with a smile from staff and owners. We enjoy going in when they are baking cakes as it smells so nice. The food we have is always of a high standard and tastes excellent. We never tend to have the same thing, as we like to try new things, so feel we can say that the quality of food is really good.This is definitely a must if visiting Grantham.

We went here for a late breakfast, the bacon was so hard it was inedible, we paid for extra and got 1 slice for an extra 90p! We had to wait 40 minutes which is a long time for a small cafe (was only bacon, eggs and toast so why so long!?) nobody came to apologise or check our food was okay. Customer service skills need to improve drastically.Also some extraction is needed as its so greasy, the table we sat on near the door had stuff peeling off the top which felt dirty.All the display products were covered in grease and dust, we came out smelling of fat and it was very smokey in there.Shame because its a nice location and small artisan cafe which grantham needs but i wont be returning.

Needed a quick bite to eat. Had half a sandwich and half a soup, ideal Very good quality and friendly staff. Strongly recommend.

1 breakfast & tea, 1 jacket potato & coffee £17 and the worst breakfast Iv`e ever had.The two pieces of butter were melted on the hot plate under the toast. The two fried eggs had solid yolks. the bacon was so hard it was inedible. the napkin was put on the beans? A member of staff said he would replace the bacon and 10 mins later I asked where it is? reply "Its not up to me" the Owner said we don`t get complaints? I said "I am trying to help you" Total disinterest not so much as a sorry or, I will look into it. UNBELIEVABLE. A days Christmas shopping in Grantham cancelled we just came home.

Stopped at the tables outside which were covered and dog friendly. Just had a quick snack; cheese on toast with lovely chutney and a fruit scone. Both delicious and accompanied by excellent coffee.

Delicious sandwiches!!!! Lovely soft bread and great fillingsThe most amazing baked potato soup everIn fact I love all their soups!

We went here on spec. as there didn't seem much else appealing for lunch, as opposed to coffee & cake, in Grantham. Food quality was good with a hefty portion size and the overall surroundings very pleasant. There are no toilets (unless they are very well hidden) but are some nearby on the 1st floor of the shopping arcade. My main comment thought was at first we weren't sure it was open - an empty set of tables with all staff seemingly having a team meeting at the far end led us to wonder would we get served. We came back later and were not clear whether there was table or order at the counter service and the it was still empty. However once all this was sorted out staff very friendly and prompt service. However that initial impression is important, if we had found somewhere more obviously ready to serve us we may not have come back and it was interesting that people only started to come in once we were obviously eating there.

Absolutely first class soup and sandwiches at this cafe/deli. All freshly prepared and really tasty. Nice relaxed environment. Also, I had an excellent pot of tea - best I've had in a long time. Can't vouch for the coffee but I would wager it would be a safe bet!

Stopped for a light lunch and ordered the home made baked beans on toast. Good thick slices or toast and a generous portion of beans, well worth trying and very filling. My daughter had the breakfast that was equally generous and very good. The menu has something for most people, everthing is prepared as ordered so do not be in a hurry. Coffee good and good value for the money. Restaurant small and has a selection of specialist food products to make up a typical hamper.

I love this place! As someone living in Grantham almost 9 months now, this is my favourite place for coffee. It's busy but never too packed, it's small but the space is used well and there is plenty to see and catch the eye on the walls and on the shelves for sale. The coffee is just delicious. Being a complete coffee snob I only look for the best and this place hits the nail on the head. Delicious cappucinos and flat whites with extremely naughty chocolate sprinkles on top. My favourite part of the experience is the mini biscotti served on the side. Who doesn't love a nibble with their coffee and even more so when it's complimentary! They have a wonderful and varied range of sweet and savouries on sale as well as wine as far as the eye can see. A wonderful little place that I can't stay away from. Looking forward to my next visit already!

My wife and I had lunch here and it very good. We both had a tuna mayo sandwich which came with salad and crisps. We also had coffee. Couldn't fault it.

Came in for a tea and sausage roll with wife as was her birthday fantastic value especially the tea big selection on sandwich I will coming again this time for a sandwich

Have eaten in Oblio's a couple of times now and it has been excellent every time. Sandwiches made to order with the freshest ingredients picked from a great selection. Really fresh bread and great soup and specials. I really would encourage everyone to eat here if in Grantham!

We came for coffee to this cozy place located inside the George Shopping Centre. The atmosphere was warm, nicely decorated and a kind and diligent service. Their coffee, scones and sandwiches are very good. They have also nice salads and serve wine if wanted. Their delicatessen store is also very good. They have a variety of cheeses, some Italian goods as dried tomatoes, and others. Summary for the best option in Grantham, considering I have been at least to three very good places

Best cafe/bistro within 20 miles. The food is very fresh, cakes, sandwiches, healthy drinks, great coffee and the service is so friendly . Family owned and the service is spot on. If in Grantham, whilst there is plenty of competition, this is the place to visit.Whilst a bit more expensive than the others, it is well worth it.

This is a pretty good stop for lunch. The choice is huge and I couldn't decide as it all looked so good. They make the sandwiches there and then so I am quite sure you could have whatever you wanted if they had it in stock. All sandwiches come in half size too for the little ones. There is a good selection of 'deli platters' too and the cakes are great for afterwards! Slightly on the pricier end for lunch but think it's worth it.

visited today for lunchtime snack. I had hot sausage roll, my wife scone with jam and clotted cream and pot of tea for two. The food was good, prompt service with a smile. It's a lovely cafe full of home made produce....many jams, chutneys, cakes, savouries and the like....not only did we eat but left with a bag of goodies too. A super find.

This establishment stands out in the offers available in Grantham.The quality of the food puts it above most other venues and even though it is quite small it is very popular.The food is all prepared from scratch, none of this bought in tat, and it shows in the wonderful tastes.The owner is always prepared to have a chat and give you the benefit of his long restaurant experience in the states.Long may they continue to serve food of excellent quality.

Absolutely fantastic cafe and deli. The specials menu offers a wide and varied choice. I have visited about 3 times in the last 3 weeks and there has always been something appetising and different as a special. The standard menu is far and away above the normal cafe fare and they put their own little flourish and flair to the meals which makes this place a really special little find. Visit, eat, drink and you won't be disappointed.

Great I thought, open on Boxing Day and first visit since change of ownership. Unfortunately likely to be last and I will stick to the Picture Cafe. Sticky table and 20 minute wait for just drinks. Marshmallow was the only good thing. Not even a genuine apology for the wait!

I come here as a treat because it's about 6 quid a sarnie, but they sure are worth it. You choose from a deli counter and while they have some staple combinations for you to ponder, they can also make up your choice of sandwich. The bread is super fresh and comes from a local, well known bakery. It is hand cut, so it's a generous door step of a sarnie. Drinks and accompaniment are quirky and are as you'd expect from a deli selection.I always take out on my way back to work and they are friendly and efficient, not leaving you long to wait. It remains my treat/pick me up venue in Grantham

Every time I come here I think I don't come often enough. So many delicious options that the only downside is the difficulty of making a choice. The silver lining is that you'd never make a poor one. I cannot praise the place enough. A little treasure for Grantham.

Been here quite a few times now & it's always lovely. Can be a little pricy but the food is to a top quality standard & very filling. We always feel like we are abroad on holiday here, with it's continental style deli shop.You must visit here

What a great little deli not only for the cafe side but also the great range of gifts and produce for sale....downside the service was veeery slow (I know they advertise freshly made - but so does everywhere ) upside - it gave me to time to look at all the great things for sale!! - had the soup and sandwich deal very nice so will be back if only to go shopping!!

Visit fairly regularly but must be having staff problems last three visits food order wrong and had to question the bill to find staff had made an error.Positive side my favourite coffee in Grantham

Well we used to love going to this place, when it was under a different name.My partner & I went in for a bite to eat and it was awful...in my opinion! Our table was not only covered in crumbs but also sticky. My partner picked up a glass and what can only be described as gooey droplet was hanging off it. Put me right off, so much so I drank from a bottle of overpriced 'non alcoholic' cocktail.On the plus side, I ate pulled pork in a bun, which was very tasty. However the side salad looked like it was plopped on the plate straight out of a salad bag with no dressing - bland, boring & tired looking. We couldn't get out of there fast enough.Thankfully there are a fair few other eateries in the Grantham and we will definitely not be returning.

A good range of hot & cold lunch plates - jacket potatoes, quiches, soup & salads - as well as monster sandwiches on a range of breads. Sadly, not the range of cheeses which the previous management offered, but not bad.The cakes are very nice too, as is the coffee.The waiting staff are very smiley so go here for a pleasant, basic & relaxing lunch.

I have been here twice now and both times we're very pleasant. Staff are always friendly, the food is good, honest and fresh. The coffee was good too and the prices are very reasonable. I can easily become a regular.
