The Deli of Malton in Ryedale

We popped into the Deli for a light lunch and coffee. We ordered coffees and 2 Bacon , Brie and Cranberry on toasted breadcakes. There was a bit of a wait for the food to arrive. The food looked nice and came with a side salad, but as soon as the waitress put the plate in front of my husband there was a strong smell of disinfectant or bleach, which he discovered was coming from one of the breadcakes. We alerted the waitress to this discovery and she sent the manager to our table. The manager refused to actually smell the breadcake and instead offered to repeat the order. We can only assume that the contamination came from the food preparation area. We accepted the offer and had no complaints about the repeat food. Staff friendly and helpful. Tables felt sticky

Cute Swiss Chalet style deli/ restaurant. We ordered breakfasts as we were too early for the lunch service which begins at 12. All the staff were super friendly and accommodating of us and our baby. The food was delicious and everyone else's looked lovely too. It was clearly busy but everything we ordered arrived quickly and hot. My only regret is that we didn't get to sample the delicious lunch menu!

Clearly the place would prefer customers who order meals and not just drinks,wish we had known this at the time,we saw a sign that said wait here to be seated which we did,we explained to the young lady we just wanted coffee and was shown to a table for 4 at the back of the cafe,half way through our coffee the same girl came back to us and asked us if we could move to a table for 2 at the front of the cafe as there were 4 people wanting a table? We moved to the front carrying our coffee and found the table she wanted us to sit at,sat down drank the rest of our coffee and watched for the other people that were supposed to be wanting a table for 4,who were nowhere to be seen! So the moral of the story is unless you want food your not welcome,so don't bother! We certainly won't be going again!

Stopped here as we always like a sandwich and chips at lunchtime. We were not disappointed. Amazing food and a great service from Michelle and her twin ( wink wink). To be honest ALL the food on the vast menu looked gorgeous. Thank you!

Couldn't believe the price for four cheese scones came to £8, It wouldn't have mattered if there had been extra cheese in but they had the smallest amount inside. Feel ripped off, very disappointed.

Disappointed rude staff and hair in cake wouldn’t recommend to a dog never mind a human over all bad experience wouldn’t spend my fine sterlings on there hair infested cake !!!!!!!!

Had a delightful brunch at the deli. Some really nice alternatives to the usual cooked breakfast. I had the Swiss breakfast which was amazing. Our daughters had the breakfast wrap and the breakfast stack which were both demolished! Staff were really friendly. Before we left Malton we popped back to get some cakes for tea which were equally as delicious as our brunch. An absolute must go if you are staying in the area.

Nice staff and scone but possibly the worst take out coffee I have ever had (and I get a lot)! Unfortunately the latte was just a weak coffee with what tasted like powdered milk? Maybe an off day, but if not please match the coffee to your lovely welcoming smile and nice surroundings.

Fantastic breakfast, this place is a gem 5* Lovely, friendly staff The eggs royal was delicious Absolutely worth another visit

Stumbled across this delightful by complete accident and we were initially excited as the decor is beautiful. I came with my mam and 1 year old daughter who needed changing almost as soon as we arrived. Horrified to find out their changing facilities were a changing May which I had to lay down on the bathroom floor? Luckily nobody else came in while we were changing otherwise they would have had to of literally stepped over her to get to a toilet. Had she of been newborn I would have probably left there and then. We had the Canadian breakfast which, for £10 was not great, consisting of 3 shop bought American pancakes, 2 rashers of bacon, some scrambled eggs and a tiny drizzle of surup. £7 for one slice of shop bought white toast and 2 dried eggs for my daughter, insane. No child friendly cutlery or plates to suit her needs so I’m thankful I had brought my own. Though they had a highchair I don’t think this qualifies being child friendly based on everything else we went though. Won’t be going back, real shame as it had such potential but it’s all style and no substance unfortunately.

Excellent service and a very enjoyable lunch. Beautifully prepared & presented & a good price. We must give a big shout out to Michelle who was very friendly and looked after us during our lunch. We cannot recommend The Deli highly enough & we will definitely be going again.

Had a fantastic breakfast here this weekend. I had the veggie breakfast with a meat sausage, and my bf's was called something like the Scandinavian breakfast. Both of them were absolutely delicious and the portions were really generous. The staff were all lovely too. We didn't get anything from the deli but there were some really lovely looking items there. We recommended it to his parents and would definitely go back!

Visited here 18th July 2023 for a late breakfast. Wasnt too busy so getting a table was not a problem. Price wise was good. I had a full breakfast, only moans was the bacon was overdone as was the fried egg which was hard. Customer service was good

We where walking thro the lovely town of malton and it started to rain so on passing the deli we shot in as there was a table free at the front of the shop , wow what a lovely little place the variety of the menu was very impressive my wife went for baked potato with tuna and I had a ploughman’s my wife said hers was very nice mine was Beautiful so many special little touches on the platter would highly recommend going the staff where all nice polite and helpful I gave the food a11/10 when asked if we enjoyed our food if any off the staff are reading this just keep doing and selling the same and you will be there for years 😊😊😊

Called in for a wine, americano and their ploughman’s platter - heaven. Admirably looked after by Michelle and the rest of the team. No hesitation in recommending the Deli. A lovely experience

Lovely food, too much really, good price. Very welcoming and friendly staff. We had to wait for a table which was not an issue and we understood why, the platter for two we had was amazing. Definitely recommend ❤️

Never been before almost walked past because I could only see three or four tables and they were all full but a local informed us there were more tables in the back. Staff very polite and helpful couldn’t fault them. Decent menu and plenty of specials. We had jacket tatty with tuna, tuna baguette, trio of pate platter and a three cheese platter. All lovely the two platter could have fed at least 3 people. Fantastic value for money. Need to lay down now!! If you are on Malton and hungry this is the place to go.

The Deli of Malton is a small shop in the market square of this delightful North Yorkshire market town. Mrs Wanderer and I arrived about 11am and decided to pop into the deli for a quick coffee. We were seated in one of the two 4-seater tables in the window and we ordered two Americanos with some milk on the side. They were reasonably quick in coming although a little disappointing. The coffee tasted to me like it was filter coffee although my wife assured me that it had been made on a traditional espresso machine. The coffee arrived in 5-inch tall white ceramic mugs presented on a similar saucer but without teaspoons. I approached the counter to see if there were any . There was a small cutlery tray to the right containing knives and forks but no spoons. I asked the young waitress for two. She seemed a little surprised that I needed them (perhaps we were expected to stir the drinks with our fingers) but gave them to me none-the-less. No apology though for not bringing them with the coffees in the first place. The mugs in my view are far to big for the job in hand. A smaller nicely rounded coffee cup would be so much more appealing and not hold so much coffee that we had to leave some. My wife's mug had a dried on dribble of coffee down the length of one side and the saucer of mine was chipped on the edge. A bit more care in making the coffee wouldn't go amiss so that it doesn't spill down the side. For god's sake retire any broken or chipped crockery! The milk arrived in a small ceramic cup, not a jug. The problem here is that without a spout milk goes everywhere, and in our case over the tablecloth. I'm sure the deli is very popular on market days, and there is a larger restaurant area towards the back of the store to cater for more people. Not having tried the food offerings I can't comment on that but I'm not sure we'll pay a return visit to find out.

Opted for the Canadian breakfast from a breakfast menu offering impressive range of choices. A cup of coffee was included and it was a generously sized mug served with hot milk. The breakfast of scrambled eggs, pancakes, bacon and maple syrup arrived swiftly and was,...

Great shop,cafe and food. Called in to the deli and stayed for lunch. Good menu with specials board. Food good quality and delicious flavors. Nice wine to wash it down. Wonderful cheese choices and cakes to die for. Well worth a visit.

We stopped in Malton for lunch, on the way back from Filey to Leeds. We had no idea where to go and came across the deli first. We really liked the look of it and loved that it was dog friendly. Really lovely food and...

I waited a long time to be served in the deli, where the food looked lovely. This in itself was no issue as it was fairly busy but once my order was taken the service was even slower. The wrap I received was pathetically small...

Had a lovely chicken Caesar Salad, almost too big a bowlful to finish. Lots of chicken, bacon, egg and avocado in the mix and a really tasty dressing.

First time and won't be the last. Had the croq Monsieur and it was excellent. Very good fries as well as a nice salad. Staff were effecient. Would recommend.

Stopped off in Malton looking for a good breakfast and was not disappointed when we ate in the Deli. Lovely food reasonably priced in a really nice setting. Full breakfast was really nice and the rest of the menu looked very good. Highly recommended.

My husband and I have eaten here twice now at lunchtime. The food is great and well priced but the service is quite slow and they tend to shut at 3pm.

The ambience in this Swiss style cafe is great; the food is great. It is such a pity that the service is utterly abysmal. If you go there you have a very high probability of being completely ignored by the staff. I have walked out...

Lovely cafe, yummy food and amazing friendly staff! We couldn’t have asked for more after popping in for a rare lunch date without the kids. The staff went above and beyond and had such friendly personalities. It felt cozy but clean and the food was...

The staff were lovely, it's a shame that the full English breakfast was of such poor quality. In fact it wasn't just the actual produce it was also the execution of the meal! I can only hope that they're between chefs!

This little place is a real gem. We have eaten here on 3 occasions now, and the food has always been exceptional. It's good value for money and the staff are really nice and friendly. I would definitely recommend you give it a try.

First time we have visited you. We absolutely enjoyed our visit that much you will see us again with out a doubt. Your staff are friendly and efficient, they all seem to know what there doing and can’t help you enough, considering the malton food...

Friendly and efficient service. Offered serving options on ordering. Sizeable portion. Good coffee. A couple of outside seats allow for people watching.

Lovely food, lovely service, a great place to go to for anyone living in Malton of for anyone visiting. Right in the market place.

Good meal - ate here a couple of years ago and the standard of the food is still high. Sadly at least 3 of the 6 staff serving at tables and in the deli were wearing their face masks tucked under their chins. When I...

Went to eat in today, the first day after lockdown. The 2 staff who served were great. The menu choices were good and we had the Slow Roast Pork with apple sauce and stuffing on a lovely brown roll and The Swiss Breakfast. Both were...

Had a lovely takeaway served by lovely people. The hot pork sandwich with hot apple sauce and crackling is to die for. 😋😋

If you don’t mind d waiting half hour for your food and coffee it’s fine but but fine if you are not in a rush !!!

Amazing little find in Malton. Friendly staff and gorgeous food. We had the steak baguettes which were a special and really tasty ... would recommend.

We visited for breakfast. Was perfect for a reasonably priced, filling meal. Also allowed us to alter our meals to our preferences. Friendly staff and clean, would definitely return!

What a find! The deli is great for a quick coffee, some lovely cheeses, breakfast, brunch and lunch. To top it off it has a beautiful wooden chalet restaurant at the back which could be found in the mountains. Get there early if you want...

We've been here a couple of times now and hadnt disappointed. The food is cooked fresh to order by friendly staff. It's always been delicious and worth the visit. If you are in Malton give it try.

Visited today, very disappointed and I would not recommend or visit again. The staff were 5* but the food was very poor. Shame really. The food and drink were served on chipped crockery, the cakes were tasteless and was not fresh today. Coffee tasted fine....

Decent place! Found the staff ok ! Friendly! Nice clean fresh food, good location ! Enjoyed the breakfast!

Visited on the way to Castle Howard. Would definitely recommend. Tasty breakfast. Lovely staff ..great atmosphere...super menu. Would love to go back to try their other meals.

Went to the deli for lunch and loved it. Beautiful home made soup and great range of sandwiches etc. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Don't miss this little gem in Malton

Just been in here for lunch. Service was excellent and the food was superb. Had a cup of Mushroom soup with my sandwich. One of the nicest soups I've ever tasted. Will definitely come again next time we are in town ....Thank you to all...

Very disappointed in this cafe, we have been a few times in the past few years but our visit last week was awful. However, I would congratulate the woman who served us who I believe was new as the rest of the staff seemed to...

I popped in here for a sandwich and a slice of cake the other week and sadly it didn't live up to expectations. I have been in several times before and enjoyed it but this time the prawn sandwich was tasteless and I feel like £8 for a small sandwich and a slice of cake isn't cheap. I just expected more for the price

Found this lovely little deli in the market square had lunch here enjoyed the meal,good service lots of choices.lovely coffees too. Lovely place to relax over lunch.love walking around malton trying out the cafes.

Visiting Malton in connection with work and recreation (Northern Rides know a lot about bikes), I came across The Deli of Malton.

Fed up with standard pub grub so chose deli.

Served by a very friendly Spanish waitress. Liked the feel of the place. Can't understand some of these negative reviews.

The service in this place was awful not only did I have to wait to place my order but once I did place it, I had to wait over 30 minutes for it to arrive. I hear you say maybe they were busy or maybe your order would take a while to cook.... let’s see there were ten people sat down to eat most of them had already been waiting a while before my order was placed, there were 3 staff members excluding the guy in the kitchen (who did not look happy), as you can see from my picture I didn’t ask for a lot and when it arrived it was terrible.

Our first time and probably last I had a cheese omelet that was like a very flat pancake that looked anemic the pot of tea although tasted nothing like was like warm that was after our order going to another table. My husband's sandwich was ok but he did leave most of it. We did notice the takeaway side seemed to be thriving just a shame that the cafe was such a let down

Grey day to drive from home to visit the Farmers Food market. Havent been to Malton in many years...and certainly not since I have been driving...so hadnt a clue where I was going....and as in many happy accidents...came across the Deli of Malton...and yes they had a choice of gluten free cake. !!! Serious bonus!! The Deli was busy, service attentive, coffee was good...and the cake disappeared very fast...It was carrot cake..one of my favourites..The menu for ordinary mortals looked good..plenty of choices... Thank you!!!

We use the Deli all the time when in Malton so at least 3 times per week. Their Pork sandwich with stuffing and apple is gorgeous. They have a good menu to choose from and the food is great. Always a warm and friendly welcome with excellent service means the Deli is very popular. Luckily they have tastefully converted what was the rear storeroom by previous owners into a lovely French style seating area with an extract fan in the roof. Always a pleasant temperature and I especially like the extract fan as this will take away anybody's cold germs, especially important as I have COPD, don't want a lung infection, and a lot of cafes without extract fans are germ breeders.

Had a tuna which was terrible. Must've been old or something. Fridge from downstairs smeeled like someone urinated inside and that terrible stink that came from basement was just unacceptable. Won't be back. Service terrible as well.

.ca,, ed in for a snack..but the vanilla slice caught my eye, it tasted as good as it looked, nice atmosphere, very busy with take away trade, toilets were immaculate. All in all a 5 star visit.

Just had two brilliant Deli Burgers, well worth a visit we will certainly be back and its dog friendly too. Great staff, great food, great choice!!

Fillet de porc was exceptional, beyond expectations and put a lot of resturants to shame. Well done, first class. Finer dining than I've paid twice as much for, shame you dont open at night. Alot of care went into a simple dish, the result was greatly appreciated. Then you recommended we have ice cream elsewhere in town! We did, it too was excellent. Will return but will demand 3 courses and wine

Stopped off for breakfast and tried the Canadian Breakfast absolutely the best food i have ever tasted cooked fresh staff are the best take time to chat and ensure you have everything you need after which we just had to try the Swiss Breakfast we were not dissapointed the food just seemed to get better the chef even stopped to have a chat lovely staff we will definately be back in the very near future,a 5 star rating does not do it justice well done to everyone involved in this business you are indeed a credit to yourselves and the owners WELL DONE

Popped in for breakfast as never been before (3.10.18). Had the Canadian breakfast which was cooked to perfection. I then had the swiss breakfast which again was cooked to perfection. I've not been living in the area for long and have been struggling to find somewhere decent for breakfast, however, i think ive found that place now.

Great food and fab service. Good selection of food and specials with nice surroundings. Not rushed, friendly waitress. Will be back soon.

I visit here every other day ,the place is buzzing !The food is great ,whether for coffees teas soups snacks cakes etc or a sit down beautifully cooked meal ,there's something for all tastes on offer here . The setting is lovely ,a touch of France a bistro feel ,that's Priscilla's added touch !. But, what makes this place really special is the wonderful staff who go out of there way to help and serve u ,. It's well worth the visit and I promise you you'll be glad you did .

Looked at the menu and saw there was a good range of British and European dishes. I had the Beef Bourgeon while my wife had the pork in a cream and wine sauce. The mains came with a side order of mash or chips. The dishes were very good as were the chips. The server was Pilar from Valencia who was wonderful - very bubbly and enthusiastic.

A nice selection of all sorts of foods to eat in or take away. The french lady behind the counter will give you good advice, should you need it

Six of us visited the small but quirky Deli restaurant on Saturday and what a treat. We had a variety of starters including the best French onion soup outside of France.

Well today whilst me my husband and my daughter visited the deli of malton I asked the owner for her recommendations as I've eaten many meals here and I wanted to try somthing I hadn't tried before. The owner (priscilla) told me about the Raclette burger which comes wrapped in bacon stuffed with alpine cheese and gherkins so I decided to go for it as everything's I'd eaten so far was amazing so why not.the pictures speak for itself but it was amazing and she was so right I'm glad I ordered it.i will defiantly be ordering again.

Visited this restaurant last week with my parents. My father has to follow a very strict diet as part of his medical treatment and is often reluctant to eat out because of this. The staff, however at the Deli were more than accommodating and were more than happy to prepare the food around my dads particular requirements. Food can often be quite bland on dads diet but the lovely omelette dad had was delicious, with a variety of ingredients included. Service was very quick and the food was extremely fresh and very tasty. All left very happy. Thanks again to the staff!

Went it to buy some food for lunch. Great pastrami , nice cole slaw , very good beetroot salad . We also bought a wholemeal loaf and some local blue cheese , all excellent

Stopped off in Malton on our way to Hovingham and parked opposite the Deli in Malton. Looked interesting so gave it a try and we were very pleased we did. After a warm and cheerful welcome we ordered and we were not disappointed! Great food and will return again when in the area

Visited for lunch. Shown to a table and provided with a menu then ignored for 20 mins. Someone asked me if I was being looked after and then took my order. Staff excel at avoiding eye contact. Another 20 mins passed and no sign

Our favourite post park run breakfast venue. Great choice, cooked fresh with good quality ingredients. Our twins love the luxury hot chocolate. Unprentious compared some some local venues, pleased they have reopened for dinner and we will be along for an evening meal soon.

Wandering round Malton on Saturday night and came across the Deli, looks a little quirky from outside, like a Chalet on the French Alps but you cannot question the food. Both my other half and I had the Bourgignon and it was exceptional, stuffed with succulent Beef and veg. I had mine with the Mash whilst my other half opted for the Rice. I win, mash is a must.

Can only judge food on a breakfast there, but it was very good. Plenty to eat and fast service. Comfortable seating area too.

We went for Breakfast I had the Full English with extra black pudding and a Rosti and my wife had the French Canadian so my breakfast was very good But traditional my wife’s had pancakes and scrambled egg and streaky bacon and it was very good to I had a coffee and my wife had tea we had our Dog with us and had no problem with putting her under the Table. service was friendly and helpful but food was a while getting to the table but worth the wait, they had a lot of customers to see to at the time we went Over all very good will call again see you there

Toasted cheese sandwiches with gherkins, bacon and pickles: surprisingly Alpine for North Yorkshire, but utterly delicious none the less!

I came in here for a late breakfast and I was not disappointed. The food was good, well cooked and well presented and was a good price.

Me and my fiancé had breakfast here on 21st of December, we happened to stumble across The deli after a detour from the motorway, the deli was clean and tidy, the staff were all friendly and attentive, and the food was good and arrived in good time, eggs were a little underdone for my personal tasted however I used the yoke to dip my toast in! Definitely worth a visit as it’s a gem in the middle of Yorkshire!

The smell was a bit strange, the paper on the tables somewhat greasy and the staff was either very over the top or a bit rude. But not in a sense that it gets really bad. The onion soup was greasy but delicious, the toast on top a little burnt. The fries were really really good.

A friend and I chose this deli for a cup of tea and a piece of cake as it was close to where we’d parked the car. It looked very appealing from the outside with its red gingham table cloths. The cake was quite dry and I suspect it had been on display for some time and the tablecloth was very stained. There’s so many eating places to choose from in Malton, I’m sure I’d return to this one.

We enjoyed our lunch here. We had the sandwich and mug of soup combo and were not disappointed. The soup is homemade and the sandwiches prepared from the deli with a very tasty side salad. Worth the wait for freshly prepared food. The coffee was good too. Both the regular and decaffeinated

I have eaten here several times now and the food has been excellent each time. There is a good choice on the menu, and it is very reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and very helpful. There is nothing at all to complain about!

Popped in for a breakfast ... absolutely smashing . American pancakes with crispy bacon were delicious and scrambled eggs lightweight . Hubbies full breakfast was hearty and rosti was particularly good. Wish we had been in the area longer to try their lunches.
