We called in for some take away food. Had the homity pie (cold but delicious) and sausage roll (hot but delicious I was told) plus a really nice mixed salad (you can choose from a mix and match selection). Enjoyed them on the harbour wall on a lovely sunny day.

Had cornish pasty and a sausage roll with a tub of olives and mixed salad. Lovely fresh food and very tasty. Would highly recommend

Came for the delicious looking “salads” and they did not disappoint! Lush fresh flavours and and tasty combinations. BUT the mushroom pie was OUT OF THIS WORLD! We also had sausage and egg muffins, hot and tasty with a good hit of pepper in the sausage patty, very welcome on a cold April morning. All in all a little gem of a deli, I wish we lived closer but will definitely be back!

Absolutely gutted that we didn’t buy at least two more Scotch eggs! Golden yolky goodness wrapped in scrumptious sausage and the coating was sooooo crisp and perfect that I will have to agree with other reviewers to say it was the hands down best I’ve ever had!

The food we purchased from the deli was not only good value, but incredibly delicious and well made. The scotch egg, crisps and sausage roll that we bought were among the best we’ve ever tried. The person serving was friendly and welcoming too! Would definitely recommend!

The BEST god damn scotch egg I have ever eaten. No lies are told here. Sausage roll next level flavour on your taste buds. Service from Terri was fantastic. I need the recipe for the scotch egg because I’m just visiting and there’s no way I’m waiting till next year to have one.

Very close to the harbour, bought pasties and coffee to drink and eat by the harbour. Pasties were so good ordered four for the following day to take home. Lovely deli with a great range of food

Terrific, wholesome food at a reasonable price. Very small venue so maybe need to book or takeout. We’re very picky, preferring to prepare our own meals, so glad we found this little gem. We chose a variety of cold dishes from the chilled counter and were very impressed with their quality, (with veggie options). Punching well above their weight in quality and ingredients. We had alighted at Watchet for just a couple of hours whilst using the West Somerset Railway as a day’s exploration of the area. So would recommend timing this as a stopping off place for lunch. (Suggestion: catchingw the 9am return train from Minehead to Bishops Lydeyard. Stay on the train and alight at Watchet for lunch, on the return trip to Minehead ).

Called in here to pick up some lunch. Friendly staff. I ordered a tuna crunch sandwich which was humongous and totally delicious. Fresh granary bread stuffed with tuna mayo, sweetcorn, cucumber, tomato and lettuce. Definitely a deli to recommend, with a wide selection of other goodies to enjoy.

Friends who have been to Sam’s Deli on a number of occasions kept telling me how amazing it was and this week I finally got to go for myself. Wow were they right. My beef and Stilton sandwich was hands down the best I have ever tasted. What an absolutely divine place: - superb food with a really wide choice and such friendly and engaging service. Whether you eat in, sit by the harbour or take to enjoy in Pebbles, this is a must eat. I am already trying to engineer a return visit.

Can't recommend this lovely funky and friendly place enough. We called in to buy a sandwiches and a panini for a takeaway lunch. Completely spoiled for choice of fillings! The lady who served us was just the loveliest person. We had our dogs waiting outside so rather than us have to wait in the street she suggested we went and sat on a bench overlooking the harbour and then she delivered the picnic lunch to us there. The food was really fresh and tasty. A really wonderful experience. Watchet is a beautiful and friendly place and this cafe was the icing on the cake.

(Actually, I had a bacon and egg bap, but I couldn't resist the alliteration!) Popped in seeking an antidote to the copious amounts of cider consumed the previous evening and was pleasantly surprised by both my bap and the size of the mug of tea. The bacon was generously sized - two large back rashers - and of superior quality, the bap soft and very fresh, and the egg was suitably eggy, (what can you say about an egg?). The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the pricing competitive. Small critical point - I asked for tabasco sauce and it was put onto the roll in the kitchen rather than letting me apply the amount I required myself. The result was a roll that might have been a little too fiery for some, although it was fine for me and did a good job of allaying the delicate state of mind of which I was possessed! Hence the 3 star rating rather than the 4 stars the quality of the food and the pleasant ambience deserve.

The pasties were good with plenty of flavour but both of them had meat at one end, for about a quarter of the way down, and the rest was potato I would have preferred the ingredients mixed.

Nice little deli with a small amount of seating. We ate in and had a panini each and the kids had a ham sandwich and a bacon roll. It was all really fresh and tasty. Nice strong cheddar that you could taste rather than the normal mild stuff! Really loved the marmite and cheese panini! Loads of bacon on the bacon roll too. We didn't try them, but the pies on display looked amazing! If I was being picky it would have been nice if the cappuccino was a little stronger, but that's just me liking strong coffee, so next time I'd just ask for an extra shot. Would definitely recommend and go again.

Been here twice, and had excellent freshly made sandwiches on each occasion. Coffee is hot and the pies look as though they are freshly made and there is an interesting selection of deli products including flavoured olive oil, (even fill your own bottles) and other items to purchase from the deli. Obviously already has a good reputation for the pies as on each occasion we have been there customers have come in and bought numerous pies to take out, and regulars from local shops have also called in for their take out lunch sandwiches. Deli is relatively small and seating inside, although adequate, is not spacious, but service and enthusiasm of Sam and his staff mean that orders are dealt with quickly and efficiently.

Expensive for what it is. They don't really cook, it's just a collection of low quality ingredients... (Probably canned) Too bad.... At 1 p.m., they only offer part of their menu, i.e. only breakfasts and not the hamburgers for example. Need to communicate better with customers or separate cards better. I do not recommend.
