The Salcombe Delicatessen in South Hams - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Best sandwiches I’ve ever had! I’ve had 2 from here and both were amazing, the baguettes look great also.

We bought sandwiches to eat while walking the SWCP. Also got coffee which we drank sitting on the wall outside. Oddly they were closed the next day - and it wasn't Wednesday Hi

Great variety and quality at a competitive price.

Exceptional Greek salad and deli sandwich! Fantastic produce and very generous portions with friendly and attentive service. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

We couldn’t find anywhere in Salcombe that was open or that we fancied for some lunch during a visit there. So when we spotted this deli, we thought we’d give it a try and have a take away instead. What a brilliant find. !!!!!! The food was exceptionally good and great value, we thoroughly enjoyed our sandwiches, looking out over the harbour on a nearby bench. The gent who served us was very polite and friendly. Highly recommend.

Super find. Fresh, tasty Sandwiches and salad. We had two crab sandwiches and prawn salad and Brie salami one too. Lots of filling, fresh ingredients and so much better than a pre packaged deal you find elsewhere. It’s a take away not eat in, so we walked down and sat overlooking the harbour. Lots of varied deli type wonders can be found here. Highly recommend.

What a great find!!!. Delicious fresh healthy salads ( they make lots of other things as well ) made while you wait, full of really tasty ingredients. The staff are really lovely. I would highly recommend giving them a try.

Very good sandwiches and pastries at a slightly high price (although competitive to other Salcombe eateries). Staff very friendly.

Had an air bnb very close to the deli. Popped in before going to the beach. Two amazing sandwiches. Freshly made, gorgeous produce, delicious! So good that we ended up visiting two more times, including taking sandwiches for the journey home. Huge sandwiches, more than enough to share, well worth the money. Some delightful items in the shop too! We encountered several members of staff, all super helpful and friendly. Highly recommend, we’ve left the menu on the pinboard in the accommodation for others to enjoy!

Popped in just before 3.00pm for lunch but kitchen was just closing .Staff went out if their way to offer us a platter from the deli counter instead. It was absolutely delicious. A mixture of salads , quiches, scotch eggs, sausage rolls .Beautiful presented too.Many thanks. Excellent

What a great place this is! We had the freshly made sandwiches (and I do mean freshly made!) which were fantastic. If you have a better sandwich than this I'd like to know where from! I had Mozzarella and my partner had Goats Cheese, freshly made whilst you wait (they kindly give you a pager so you can wander round) We came back and had the same a few days later which was just as good. The pasties & sausage rolls etc all looked very tempting but I couldn't manage one as well. Great little place well worth a visit, but you may need to wait a bit whilst the make it :-)

Have gone here for years to get lunch on the way to the beach. It is very expensive (like the rest of the town) but the food is great.

Cannot fault this place, the sandwiches and salads are freshly made, so you can take them out with you. Nothing is too much trouble! Thank you.

The four of us bought our lunch from here at least three times over our weeks stay in Salcombe. A great find. Between us we had various sandwiches, baguettes & pasties. The sandwiches are FULL of delicious fillings, prepared to order. Would definitely recommend.

It might not be the cheapest sandwich you have bought, but there is a good chance it is one of the nicest. Wide selection and utterly delicious.

Amazing. Best sandwich I ever ate.

We called for a sandwich, but they had stopped making them, but they were extremely helpful by selling us the ingredients for us to make our own ! You could not fault the food and we will definitely return

We made a stop here for a quick lunch. We ordered several traditional pasties and one gluten free pasty all of which tasted amazing! (Best gluten free pasty we’ve tried) The gentleman serving was very knowledgeable about gluten free practices ensuring that the risk of cross contamination was minimised. Will definitely be going back!

Bought lunch here. Absolutely delicious sandwich and baguette. So generous with the fillings. Would definitely recommend. The staff are so friendly and helpful too.

We visited this Deli when we had a day trip in Salcombe because we saw how highly rated it was from looking at previous Tripadvisor reviews. There is a huge selection of different sandwiches available, as well as pastries and other savoury items. I decided to have a crab sandwich and it was delicious. The bread and fish were so fresh. I would definitely re-visit this place in the future. I have heard that the Deli gets very busy and foods sell out quickly, so I would advise getting there as soon as you can or pre-ordering your food online before you visit to avoid disappointment.

Crusty bread, loads of white crab meat. Could have been heavy or stodgy or chewy but was none of those things. Despite it being peak Saturday lunch, wait time was the ten minutes that they said when we ordered. Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended.

Best sandwich or Baguette in The the UK. Top class ingredients served to you by such friendly and pleasant staff. The owner is such a very kind and wonderful man. A must if you are ever in Salcombe. Oh and it is such a great price. 👍😁

You could tell from the queue it was popular and it was worth the short wait. Both our baguettes were overflowing with very generous fillings. Coronation Chicken in one and Ham and Mozarella in the other. Both delicious and a reasonable price.

Sooo good. We visited here yesterday and the food was tremendous. We all had something different and unusually these days everything we ordered was correct! I had the Salcombe Deli baguette which was Milano Salami, Emmental, Gherkins, Lettuce, Tomato, Mayonnaise and wow how good was it. Highly recommend this place and 1-2 mins further up the road were a couple of covered seating areas with a lovely view over the bay.

A fantastic little sandwich and cake shop. We went twice, firstly for pasties and secondly for a baguette. The prices were good, the baguette looked amazing and was filled well. We were satisfied both times. The server even called me by my first name many times, which added a personal touch!

Despite having a list of sandwiches you can order a mix of ingredients, as long as they are on the menu. Very friendly and helpful. All sandwiches freshly made. Also sell fruit and drinks.

We thoroughly enjoyed the delicious sandwiches and baguettes we ordered from the deli.We eat them in the gardens further up the road from the deli in the glorious sunshine.So tasty , lots of filling, well worth the money ,would definitely recommend.

Very helpful and friendly people. Excellent fare and good prices

My wife bought a tuna and cucumber sandwich and I had ham, mozzarella and sun dried tomato sandwich. Both full of filling and full of flavour; we didn't need anything else for our lunch, and will have just a snack this evening. Good value for...

Fabulous selection of sandwiches. Unfortunately I arrived too late to get crab, but there was a Fabulous choice anyway.

Best place for amazing crab sandwiches in salcombe! Hidden gem amongst a sea of tourist traps

Expensive but worth the money as every ingredient was fresh and mostly locally sourced. After a deep sigh when handing over the credit card it was replaced by big smiles when we looked in the take away bag. Quality service and even the bag is...

This is a delightful deli with such friendly staff, a great selection and they make the best sandwiches. Very nicely presented too and excellent value for money. Would strongly recommend.

Lovely fresh food and Cornish ice cream tubs !!

Such a lovely, vibrant hub for Salcombe. A place to relax, meet friends and as I have just experienced, eat one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. Friendly owners and staff, thank youfor your hospitality!

Friendly service and a good choice of food including vegan options. Advisable to pre-order

Delicious baguettes, a good vegan selection on the board inside, and a decent range of vegan treats including a fantastic tiffin. Pre-order or arrive early if you want Salcombe crab.

Superb, sandwiches and delicious treats. Great choice of fillings, all freshly made. Friendly service with a smile despite the busyness. Great place to stock up before a walk

Up the road from North sands beach is this lovely little deli. One of the first things you come across once you get to the top of the hill, so perfectly positioned. Served by a charming man and fellow Chelsea supporter. Baguettes were worth every...

Great sandwiches, tasty and well filled.

Two very tasty baguettes bought here today, generous fillings and we took them up the road to eat them overlooking the river. Recommend!

Attention to detail and quality. Thank you!

Tasty crab sandwiches! Would recommend!

Cheeky five star review. Marks for very friendly service, in the teeth of the marauding crowds. Also marks for the great range of GF cakes and snacks - by no means a token gesture, they are excellent in their own right. Coffee good too. Very highly recommended amongst lots of competition in the town.

Delicious gluten free quiche and very good service

Popped in for drinks and snacks, came out with a mini picnic! Hard to resist the all the goodies. Really good quality & delicious:)

We loved going to this deli - they make sandwiches and baguettes while you wait and it is well worth the wait. Everything is reasonably priced and the owners/staff were really nice as was everyone we met in Salcombe.

lovely friendly smiling staff that can't do enough for you. Great selection of food and drinks. Hot chocolate is wonderful. Views are fantastic and the decor is modern and homely. can't wait to visit again soon!

Wonderful apartment, in a fantastic setting in beautiful Salcombe. Warm outside pool, private parking, what's not to love? Even the weather held up!

We popped in for something to eat after a day on the beach. The baguettes were amazing! Lots of choice on the menu, friendly and helpful service.

Huge number of options for a sandwich in either a baguette or in between 2 slabs of bread. Recommend the Salcombe crab sandwich or the chicken salad. Very good value for the amount of filling in the sandwich. Usually very busy during lunchtime so may...

This is where we buy our pasties, very tasty, and much else as well. Staff are always interested and attentive

Great deli. Friendly staff. Lovely food. Try the crab salad!

What a great place, fresh bread, delicious fillings and a great choice of sandwiches for little people! Thanks for the yummy lunch for my daughter and friendly service with a smile!

They have a great selection perfect for takeaways / picnics on a long walk around the coast or even a light lunch in the town. The best thing about here was their selection of gluten free options.

Delicious cheese and onion pasties, and very welcoming friendly staff. Highly recommend visiting!

Friendly staff, cute location and nice choice of coffees and cakes. Would recommend whilst wandering around Salcombe

Amazing Crab sandwiches and really special delivery selection

Always the most delicious cakes and pasties. We make sure we visit every time we are in the area. Friendly service too

So pleased we found this deli early on in our week in Salcombe. Fabulous freshly made sandwiches. Their crab sandwiches are the best I've ever had. The fresh, ready to cook pizzas are excellent too. Service is brilliant, even in these difficult times. Highly recommended.

Made a point of returning to this Deli from a visit made last year. Was not disappointed. Bought a prawn sandwich and a coronation chicken. Both were freshly made, had packs of filling and were very tasty. Ate them overlooking Gara rock bay in the sunshine. What could be better?

Lovely sandwiches and pasties always served with a smile. The fresh ingredients are always very tasty and the Devon pasties are always just as good.

Wonderful Brie cranberry ham and avocado baguette. All sandwiches and baguettes are made fresh to order.

Truly excellent. A delightful find for lunch....which we thoroughly enjoyed in the park overlooking the estuary

We visited on a sunny, busy day in Salcombe. The server was on his own as he had been let down by his co worker - he was working flat out. It did not diminish the product or the friendly service. Delicious sandwiches/baguettes - we enjoyed the Loire, the ploughmans and the New Delhi - all superb.

Two vegetarian and gluten free tarts to choose from, including a roasted tomato and smoked cheddar tart and a feta and roasted vegetable tart. It wasn't the best gluten free pastry I've ever had, but the fillings made up for it. There was also a gluten free bacon tart and a gluten free meat pasty. Staff were friendly and kindly heated up our quiches for us to take away.

On this occasion were weren't looking for their excellent sandwiches but something for an evening meal. We have bought pastys there before and they remain a good buy. I am surprised by some of the negative reviews.

Great selection of sandwiches and cold drinks. Good service and food at good prices. Will buy again if we go back to Salcombe.

Great sandwich selection, friendly staff and nice big sandwiches. Highly recommend the chorizo and mozzarella.

I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt but you can’t sell coffee like that. Weak and watery at best, perhaps you have a problem with the machine today. We were at the other end of the town otherwise we’d have brought it back. Cakes were nice though.

Mixed feelings on this deli. The adult selection was lovely and good quality, really enjoyed my sandwich. The cakes are lovely too. However, the kids sandwiches seemed rather overpriced for what they are. Also choice is granary or white, would be nice to have a brown options as kids often don’t like ‘bits’ in bread! So, recommended for adults-prob not for kids.

Looks like a very popular places for sandwiches - we only ordered coffees. We tipped them down the drains - simply awful!!

Visited during Covid. Excellent hygiene arrangements and we felt very safe. Now the food - This is not just any old takeaway - this is Sandwich perfection! Delicious fresh sandwiches, coffee and all beautifully presented.

Good service and a wonderful selection of salads, sandwiches and baguettes using local ingredients. Sympathetic to allergies, they offer your choice your way, assuring no cross contamination. The Salcombe crab salad was just delicious, so fresh. The avocado was perfectly ripe and melt in the mouth, the cherry tomatoes bursting with flavour and the lettuce and rocket crisp. The crab! Out of this world! I can taste fresh crab and this was fresh cooked, hand sorted crab. Worth every penny!

Wide variety of what appeared to be home made cakes and pastries which of the ones we tried were delicious. Similarly a wide variety of teas and coffees available.

My wife and I stopped by here today whilst in Salcombe. Fancied a sandwich for lunch, but had 2 superb freshly made while you wait baguettes. We then took these and ate them on a quiet bench overlooking the boats. The baguettes were stuffed with filings. Very happy.

Shiopped here for some eats and drinks to tale back to our hotel. Fabuloyus find, good quality and varied fayre.

We had previously walked past this place knowing that we would revisit when we were hungry. The sandwich menu was extensive with so much choice, we had prawn and avocado, crab and cheese and ham. All were delicious and were definitely worth waiting as they were made up from scratch in the kitchen. A small gem of a deli that sells all sorts. I would highly recommend this place and will def revisit when I’m back in Salcombe!

I ordered a chicken salad mayonnaise sandwich and my husband coronation chicken. Chap serving was v helpful and friendly and someone behind the scenes made the sandwiches to order. We also partook of the yummy ice cream and Luscombe drinks! Total £17 but the sandwiches were stuffed with chicken. Lovely. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic place to grab a sandwich/baguette or salad 🥗 before the beach 🏖 great service. Very helpful staff behind the counters even if there is a wait for the food it’s well worth the wait 👍 thank you 😊

Popped in and bought lots of little pots of food - houmous, carrots, peppers etc. Sat and ate outside watching all the boats. Much nicer than being in a restaurant!

Visited at 1pm on a busy August Wednesday. Ordered within a few minutes, given a ticket and freshly prepared food with us 8 minutes later. Nicely presented prawn baguette and a very fresh brown bread chicken and avocado sandwich. Took them to Cliff gardens and enjoyed lunch with the best view in the UK. Highly recommend this Delicatessen and sandwich shop.

Popped into the Salcombe Delicatessen and Sandwich bar today during my weekend in Salcombe. Glorious weather all weekend and the ice cream we bought was just the job. There are all sorts of other tasty offerings for a light lunch too!

Really good food and friendly staff.

Great friendly obliging staff and superb crab sandwiches. Whenever we holiday in Devon and Cornwall, we invariably buy a number of fresh crab sandwiches on our travels and our experience in Salcombe was delightful. Thank you.

Love the choices of delicious food, would totally recommend when visiting Salcombe, and I will be returning as soon as possible.

Top notch. Really tasty fresh crab baguette

Lush crab sandwich. Really friendly staff.

We were mugged by the Salcombe Seagull Gang and my wife had a roll taken out of her hand by a gull that swooped in from behind us. The meant we still had a little hole to fill. High up on the highlights board was "Gluten Free Pastries and Products" so being Coeliac we had to go in. We bought two quiches to keep for our evening meal and takeaway coffee and ice cream to have immediately. Lots of other choices for special diets and very helpful staff. The ice cream was so good we didn't buy any more that week as we knew it could not be so good.

An incredible choice of food considering its a tiny shop! you can pre order and collect an imaginative range of salads and sandwiches, cheeses and other nibbles and treats. Vegan, GF and veggie options. Local ingredients. Nothing is too much trouble for them.

Great sandwiches and lovely people serving

We had 3 sandwiches 3 days in a row from this place. Each one was consistently as good as the last. The prices were realistic but also well worth it, a reason we handed our cash over so willingly! Packaging mostly recycle-able. A good idea if you’re planning a long walk but don’t have catering facilities if camping for example. We’ll be back.

Brilliant food, friendly service and good pricing. Me and my mum were extremely happy with our sandwiches, you get loads of filling and nice, fluffy bread. We would highly recommend it for lunch !

Very nice. It was v.busy but the yummy crab sandwich I had arrived quickly. Xx really good. Definitely recommend it 😃

Popped in looking for a quick lunch, obviously popular judging by the que.

£12 seems to be the going rate for crab sandwiches in Salcombe - a staggering amount really but here they were less than a tenner and you had the option of crab or crab with mayo and avocado - we shared one of each which came in thick very fresh brown bread but there was also a baguette option. We bought cold drinks as well as jam and biscuits for gifts from the deli and walked a few yards up the road to a grassy seating area overlooking sea to eat our sandwiches which were delicious. Staff friendly and very helpful with directions

Excellent little deli, great selection of goodies and very helpful staff, picked up some nice bits to have a picnic with my partner would definitely come here again

This is a great deli with a lovely selection of local food. We bought freshly made to order crab sandwiches. They were the best so we had several visits during our week in Salcombe. The chocolate brownies are pretty good too.

The extensive sandwich and baguette menu was too tempting to pass up, and the crab, avocado and mayonnaise on granary bread was superb! Highly recommended for a treat. Lovely selection of cheeses, olives, jams and other such delights as well.

Super value... generous fillings to the sandwiches and baguettes.
