Widcombe Deli in Bath and North East Somerset

Popped into their new location in the Ram this morning, with a friend. Amazing, great coffee, a secret sausage roll to die for, great staff...time to chat and a great atmosphere.

A return visit to buy more vegan tiffin! This time I also bought a delicious sausage roll ,the two items for my lunch stop on a walk from Bath to Bradford on Avon. I had first bought the tiffin a couple of months ago and couldn't wait to buy more ,hence this return visit! It is absolutely perfect with thick chocolate and rich biscuit and fruit! Friendly staff, reasonable prices and prompt service all added to a good experience. Thank you

Love it when I have deliveries to local garages in this street, lovely staff, excellent food, please support we need to use these great local outlets they are assets to the high streets and back streets of local areas. Great little place for food and coffee, 100% recommend, Ray

WOW! You won’t be disappointed! Beautiful fresh homemade food, altered menu to my liking, service spot on and so friendly! Fabulous eclectic vintage wonder! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇦🇺

Disappointing breakfast. Eggs were poached undercooked with snotty whites, we weren’t asked how we wanted our eggs, if so would have been fried not poached. Sausages over cooked and hard seemed like they were yesterdays. With a little more effort could be a good breakfast. Have eaten here in the past and breakfast was always good.

Absolutely love this place, staff are always welcoming, you get treated like family and even occasionally get called Babe- which is fabulous

What a fabulous place! My husband and I have walked the Bath Skyline twice in recent years and both times have stopped off here for lunch. The food is always tasty and varied and the staff very friendly. We love the higgledy-piggledy, eclectic decor too; so charming and welcoming. We were touched to see that children from low income families can (discreetly) enjoy free lunches here during school holidays too. What kind and community spirited people the owners must be. The only reason we haven’t given 5 stars is because we felt the food was on the pricier side, but this absolutely would not deter us from coming back. It’s a great deli and we’d certainly recommend.

Great place to visit for a relaxing breakfast/lunch/coffee and cake. Good mouthwatering range of freshly made dishes and cakes available, suitable for many dietary requirements including glutenfree, vegetarian and vegan Pleasant relaxing atmosphere with plenty of seating both inside and out. Well worth a visit.

I went in for the full set breakfast. There was nobody else in there when I went in but the food took a very long time to arrive. It was served on a cold plate; the quantity was very small, considering the price; the toast was cold; the sausages were small, not very tasty and cold; the bacon was cold and rather tough; the eggs were very cold. The tea was cold and tasted unpleasant. Cutlery was provided wrapped in a soggy napkin. If I hadn't been pressed for time, I would have complained and sent it back. Despite its good location, I would not recommend this cafe/deli.

We thought we would go up to the Bath Skyline walk and ended up passing through Widcombe where we found the Widcombe Deli. Just our sort of place. Pleasant atmosphere (slightly quirky in a nice sort of way), attentive friendly staff and smashing food. I would certainly return...........

Staying nearby we decided to come here for breakfast, although food was ok a few of the items were over cooked, both the eggs and bacon on the well done side, very difficult to eat the breakfast sandwiches as bread was crumbly. Coffee was tasty, the “regulars” were greeted in a friendly manner, visitors on the whole ignored. Whilst the additional flowers on food are attractive they aren’t something any of us particular welcome.

We were expecting a lot more here today after seeing the reviews. We were staying just a few metres away so location was great. Two of the breakfasts were ok, two weren’t. One breakfast had overcooked eggs and cold beans in a cold dish. My eggs were ok but not that warm. The plates you are serving on need to be at the very least warm. If you are offering two eggs on toast it should be one egg per slice of bread, not one egg per half slice. Also when a customer simply asks for the beans on the toast and eggs on top, A) don’t roll your eyes and B) Do what was asked! We don’t mind paying the price for these breakfasts but we need to go away happy and thinking we had value for money. Sadly today we didn’t. Maybe just a one off, after seeing your reviews. It’s a nice location and a nice little deli / cafe, just not for us today. Also this is the response we got from same review on Google. ''eye rolling" is our standard response to awkward and patronising customers - good customers get great service - it's worth remembering...." If these people think asking for the beans on the toast with the eggs on the top is being awkward then something is wrong. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt after seeing the other reviews and putting it down to a one off. I hope other people see your response and avoid!!

We came in for a quick lunch. There were some good choices of food for a vegan. Coffee was nice. Worth a visit.

Saw this whilst walking along the canal. Excellent coffee and cakes. Really worth the time to visit. Sat outside and was lovely.

Went in for a cup of tea, the breakfast looked so good we had to try it, well wroth the visit, one of the best breakfasts I have ever had.

Great range of food for all tastes, amazing choice and everything we tried was truly fantastic. Excellent coffee (especially the oat milk latte) and such friendly staff upon each visit. Definitely recommend.

Cycling the Kenet & Avon Canal and came across this little gem of a deli cafe in Widcombe. Cute quirky decor, lots of tasty and unusual snacks and meals (we shared vegetable quiche, bacon & egg tart, a VERY choclatey millionnaires shortbread and a granola...

Fine for a coffee but anything other than a snack samosa and you’ll go hungry. Their one and only vegan friendly meal is an overpriced “mezze cake”, not one sandwich without cheese and dairy on offer. You might be lucky if the soup is on...

My family and I had a rather underwhelming experience here today, which is a shame as I’ve heard good things about the chain generally, and enjoyed cake at the Larkhall branch. The general theme was over cooked - all four poached eggs in our various...

Such a friendly team here at this local deli ! Just love the lasagne served with a generous salad . Always such a nice place to visit

In bath for a friends wedding and ate here twice. Initially lunch which all 4 of us enjoyed and then the following day for breakfast which was so disappointing. All 4 had something with eggs and all of us received over cooked, rubbery eggs. I...

Great coffees, lovely spot to stop. Although didn't have any, there was Gluten free cake options which looked fantastic. Quick & friendly service, plenty of space to sit.

So disappointed, arrived at 9.05am, cafe doors open and people drinking coffees, walked in and asked for breakfast menu to be barked at "we're not open, but you can have a coffee", asked if we could pre order breakfast along with our coffee( yes was...

Fab breakfast away from the busy hustle and bustle of Bath's city centre. They also had a great selection of sandwiches, cakes and other deli bits. Definitely worth a visit!

All round amazing! Staff were super friendly and helpful and both breakfast and coffees were gorgeous!! Defo recommend

So lovely to sit at a pavement table in the sunshine enjoying freshly cooked vegetable quiche with superb salad. Great choice of deli food. Excellent service. A real treat.

On a trip to Bath, visited this deli on 4 occasions for breakfast, there was a good choice of artisan food, We also bought delicious cakes & pies to take away. Service excellent, warm welcome, catered for all our needs with a smile. My sister...

Had a quick cup of Chai latte here before we proceed to Prior Park. It was great! Wonderful decor inside and staff were lovely.

Nicky and her staff did the most amazing job for us. It was last minute due to the Covid restrictions and she couldn’t have been more accommodating and flexible. The food was just amazing and her advice and knowledge putting the menu together was so...

Entered at 3.45 pm to order a some food n drink was told we close at 4pm i felt quite abruptly but nothing on door no explanation so checked and returned to complain as not on website or on the door was told it was...

Lovely little Deli that matches the Bath atmosphere. Superb fresh homemade fare. Quaint design and charactered. Quality spread - Bath prices apply. Due to the age of the building the only toilets are downstairs. Worth a visit even just for the delicious Bakewell Cake!

We just fancied a nice cuppa after a long walk and the Widcombe Deli was there for us. We had two small cakes and two coffees. The cakes were fresh and so scrummy and served on a flowery plate with a cake fork. The coffee was strong and tasty and you cold choose to put in your own milk. This is how an afternoon cuppa should be served.

✨A real gem nestled in lark hall. Lovely little garden out the back for al fresco dining. Great service and a delicious breakfast. ✨

What a delightful cafe, so cute and welcoming. We tried the breakfast sandwich, and it didn’t disappoint. Well worth a visit

A super local deli with fresh and delicious cooked food and salad options. Great cakes and pastries too. Always friendly and helpful service. We are very fortunate to have Widcombe Deli so close to home. Loved by the whole family especially after school!

Si estás en Bath, te recomiendo encarecidamente Widcombe Deli. Variedad de comida bellamente presentada. Tuve el quiche de hongos recién hecho con ensalada que estaba delicioso! ¡Pregunté por direcciones a Bear Flats y el dueño apareció con un mapa!fabuloso servicio al cliente para arrancar! Pruébelo, no se decepcionará.

The proprietors of this lovely cafe were friendly and generous to two Welsh customers. The coffee was delicious. Many thanks

Qué gran lugar para un almuerzo rápido con amigos y colegas en un ambiente suavemente ecléctico con pantallas de lámparas caras y una gran selección de ensaladas, pasteles y quiche. El personal es amable y los propietarios son enigmáticos, de la mejor manera posible.Por lo general, está ocupado, lo cual es una buena señal y una especialidad particular es el café. La demografía es mixta, desde ciclistas y arquitectos retirados hasta familias y perros jóvenes.

Comida de mala calidad, personal indiferente, café horrible. Esto no era comida artesanal. ¡Qué malgasto de dinero! Tenía muchas ganas de visitar este lugar, ya que se ve bien, pero ahí es donde termina. Es una pena ya que nos quedamos localmente para una escapada familiar de Navidad y habría comido aquí más a menudo. Bueno, hay muchos más lugares para elegir.

Yummy quiche with absolutely delicious range of side salads. Friendly ambience and prompt service. Excellent! Just 5 minutes walk from Pulteney Bridge - walk south along the east side of the river to Widcombe, turn left and it's right there.

Acabo de ir a almorzar con algunos amigos. La selección de comida es realmente excelente, con muchas opciones sin nueces, sin gluten y veganas. El personal fue muy servicial al decidir sobre nuestro almuerzo dando recomendaciones y ayudando con los requisitos dietéticos. El deli está bellamente decorado con papel de pared colorido y un ambiente alegre. Recomiendo encarecidamente si viene a almorzar o simplemente café y un pastel.

Popped in for a warming coffee on a rainy day. The selection of food on offer looked amazing, but we settled on some Portuguese tarts which were delicious.

I enjoyed it when it first opened with its fresh ideas and decent food but went back for the first time for a while whilst in Bath with some visiting friends... It's really gone down hill, food was poor and service was terrible. Deli? It's worse than a village cafe now.. ShameWon't go again...

Trouvé au hasard de nos visites, le Widcombe Deli est une pâtisserie traiteur très sympathique avec un choix de délicieuses quiches maison. Essayez celle au chorizo !

overpriced food. servers who clearly don't want to be there. horrible experience and only went in for a small lunch. will be telling my friends and family to avoid this place.

Fui con mi compañero a tomar una bebida caliente y un pastel, todo era demasiado caro y había moscas por todas partes. El personal no fue muy amable y claramente no fuimos bienvenidos allí. Puede parecer un lugar dulce y acogedor, pero en realidad es muy grosero y antihigiénico.

Good food and coffee. However, recent problems where they seemed to close at an earlier time on a Friday afternoon, and made my partner feel uncomfortable, stacking chairs around her, and pushed her to leave. Disappointed and may not return.

Had breakfast here not cheap middle of road pricing must be one of the best breakfasts in Bath good and polite service

We loved Widcombe Deli and highly recommend it. Fabulous, friendly staff. The decor is quirky but cosy and the owner will tell you stories about their decoration acquisitions. The coffee is delicious and they have a lovely range of pastries. The lunch choices are from Yotem Ottolenghi and so interesting, diverse and delicious. Treat yourself, please.

This is fifth time I have visited. The owner remembered me and my aversion to cucumber 🤣🤣 and more importantly fantastic food and good value for money. Pay a visit!

Popped in here for a coffee during a short visit to Widcombe - the area just across the river from Bath Spa station.

Can recommend the range of quiches & salads at this lovely deli with friendly & Efficient service. Cakes & traybakes & delicious coffee too!

A cosy and interesting deli away from the hustle and bustle of the shops, yet only a short walk from the station.

Very steep prices in regards to what you get, come here if you want to spend upwards of £4.50 for a takeaway sausage roll. I wouldn’t have minded in particular but I found the sausage roll to be fairly stale and underwhelming. Perhaps I caught them on a bad day.

I loved Widcombe Deli: the place is very cosy and with a special atmosphere.

Superb deli, freshest quiche and salad, relaxed and quick service, one of the best places to eat around bath, should be ranked far higher!!

Widcombe is an expensive up market area of Bath, in itself one of the most beautiful cities in England. Widcombe Deli is thus exactly as you would expect.

really lovely Sunday morning breakfast, with the best sausages ever from Larkhall Butchers. Despite being busy we did not feel rushed in anyway. Good service with a smile and a joke, excellent food

Stopped by on a Tuesday, welcomed by a lovely lady. We had two quiches and salads, very good portion sizes, and yummy home cooked food. The peanut butter slice was also amazing! Small cozy and local, would recommend. R + E

I've passed by a few times and it has always been queueing out of the door, but this lunchtime I saw it was much quieter

Friendly always a buzz and delightful home prepared food, choice destination of locals and visitors to Bath - excellent and never been disappointed in 30 plus visits consistent high standards of food, service and atmosphere - thank you to the owners and all that make it so good

Amazing food, amazing staff and lovely atmosphere. A really friendly place to have lunch (wonderful quiches), or coffee and luscious cakes. Highly recommend.

This cafe is friendly and informal with a relaxed atmosphere. They have a great selection of fresh and interesting salads - you can have just a healthy sized plateful - or you can add a generous slice of quiche - usually a good selection with interesting fillings - or arancini, Scotch eggs, lasagne etc. All homemade and good sized portions. Good value for a satisfying lunch. I think there a sweet things too! In nice weather there are tables outside on the pavement. Recommended - but go earlier rather than later because they may run out!

Wow I was full as egg (a saying my welsh friend uses) after this lovely lunch. I had a Chorizo quiche & Scotch egg salad & it was wonderful. A great find. Will definitely be back.

Went here after a personal recommendation and had a great lunch. All the food is freshly prepared and full of flavour.

I'm a regular here as the office where I work is close by. The deli specialises in home cooked quiches and salads and is very popular, deservedly so. Inside it's simply but tastefully decorated and has a great atmosphere and brand which they've clearly worked hard on. If you're looking for lunch in Widcombe or close to Bath bus/train station it's worth the extra 2 minute walk to find this place.

Visited today for lunch with my mum as I have just moved in nearby. Friendly staff and nice quirky decor inside. Indoor and outdoor seating. Great selection of quiches, served with a delicious variety of salads. Didn’t try any cakes but they looked lovely. Will definitely be back!

Let me first say it was a very busy sunny Saturday - I've always noticed this place whilst driving past so we decided to walk along the canal and stop off for a Saturday brunch before heading in to the shops. It was busy inside and out with loads of staff buzzing around. We stood by the counter for a couple of minutes and were completely ignored by all. i then asked whats the proceedure - do we order at the counter, find a table etc. I was told, in a very off hand way, to wait and they will be with us soon. Eventually our order was taken, although they had run out of my first choice, and we were asked to get our drinks from the fridge in the other room (fridge was situated behind an arm chair and two full tables of customers - so that was a fun few minutes retrieving an orange juice) Finally our food arrive - all fairly tasty, nothing to write home about. We ate, paid and left. We may try again on a less busy day but the whole experience seem to be organised chaos with a very load, bossy lady ordering everyone - staff, patrons and visiting 'friends' around at the top of her voice. Was not the relaxing brunch we had planned.

Quick drop in. Massive change since the old premises. So many staff all full of the joys of Summer. Lovely coffee and also gluten free options. Well priced. Free parking for an hour on the main Street. Awesome charity shop opposite. Gina Versace tie £3! Loved it and highly recommended. Enjoy

We had lunch here for two days in a row. The food is excellent. However, it is disappointing that the sauce bottles left on the tables were dirty and sticky, particularly around their necks. Things like this should be checked every day and wiped clean when necessary. It raises a slight concern in my mind as to how clean things are behind the scenes.

We stumbled across Widcombe Deli this morning before travelling back home. What a delight! I honestly can’t fault it in any way. Beautiful food, the most delightful staff and an amazing atmosphere and decor. We shall definitely be back sooner rather than later.

We have visited a couple of times this week. The first time, I had the Cornish pasty and the second time, the chicken pie. Both were delicious and the accompanying salads made for fantastic lunches.

What a fabulous place to stop for lunch following a walk along the river. Portions are fantastic and everything has an exceptional home made feel. Would definitely come here again

We come to have a Brunch. And probably now is our favourite place to have breakfast in our day off. Nice place, cosy, warm and friendly. Delicious food and well presented.

Lovely food and lovely coffee in a cosy environment. Highly recommended! Fills up quickly at lunchtime!

I found this on trip advisor, very close to where we were staying.

Lovely little place, staff very welcoming, could have stayed all day with their great choice of magazines. Breakfast was excellent and there were very good options for food intolerances. Definitely warrants all the good reviews!

If you like home cooked food you will LOVE this place. Super friendly staff with a special mention to Nikki. Great atmosphere and location.

Amazing gluten free cakes which are not just the usual chocolate brownie. So good in fact that I would bite the hand of anyone who tried to take it away from me!

This was my first visit to the Deli at Widcombe. I had heard many great reports of the food, especially the breakfast. We turned up at lunchtime. The staff are super friendly and the venue has a great laid back atmosphere. The three rooms are cleverly decorated and each has a distinctly different feel. The food is obviously home cooked, fresh and very appetising. I had the chorizo and black olive quiche with salad. The truth is I am not much of a salad fan but this was truly amazing. A wonderful combination of flavours. Will definitely return to sample the breakfast. Great little restaurant and another wonderful little find in Widcombe.

We have been threatening to come here for quite a while. We had been to Bath Christmas market and decided to go for lunch. We weren’t disappointed. I had the moussaka and salad and my husband had the pasty which was delicious and salad. Especially liked the different salads which made a nice change from the usual lettuce and tomato. We shall be returning.

We came here after it was recommended to us by our host and saw it was so highly rated.

A great traditional cafe serving home made food including a range of breakfasts, pastries etc and excellent coffee. Super staff. Traditional cafe decor and relaxing atmosphere.

I was taken here for lunch today, the staff were very friendly and allowed you to personalise the menu if you wanted to, which is always a positive. The decor was nice and quirky (especially the room with loads of lampshades). I ordered a sausage roll and some salad, the sausage roll was deliclious (much better than greggs) but my salad wasnt very nice, it consisted of 5 things: coleslaw, lentils, red cabage in a starnge sauce, something with too much mayo on and normal salad which was drecnhed in balsamic vinegar, all of which i dont like. As i was still hungry i asked for a chicken and avacado sandwich which was £4.95, which is a bit steep compared to somewhere like tesco where it would be around £2.30, and when that came it was seriously over buttered, i couldnt taste any avocado or chicken as the butter was so overpowering. However on the plus side dogs are allowed in and the staff and the cafe itself are very nice and i am sure to come back for breakfast.

We went here expecting it to be lennie's Cafe but it has changed hands. The proprietor said he's thrown Lenny in the canal but he's actually bought a Launderette up the road! The pasty was probably the best pasty I've ever had - not just potato, but carrots, swede onion and real meat! At £4.75 eat in, it's not cheap, but what is these days? The salad was very varied, although £2 is a little steep! The mocha was more lie a cappuccino with chocolate sprinkles, and so i needed sugar, but it was really hot. We got brought not one but two glasses of water, which was good because the waitress [off which there are many] managed to knock the dog's water bowl over [and swiftly refilled it!]. You can take dogs inside, although it's nice to sit outside and watch the world go by.

Was taken here for lunch last weekend. Very friendly staff .Quirky, fun decor. Had a very good vegetarian moussaka. My friend ordered Quiche. Both served with 5 different salads. All Very tasty. Delicious lemon and ginger juice too

Whilst doing the bath skyline walk we were recommended towards this lovely deli. A couple of hot full flavoured coffees and some delicious homemade cake were exactly what we needed. Sitting outside in the morning sunshine was a treat and so glad we found a little gem of a deli.

We've clearly been turning the wrong way as we leave the Travelodge (TM) in Bath. Usually we turn right along the River Avon and up to the city centre via Pulteney Bridge in search of breakfast. Why oh why did we not think of going left to Widcombe shops for a nice cafe? Then, only then, we would have found this superb place earlier. Great coffe, great tea and let me tell you about the breakfast. All the usual stuff you expect etc but! Great meaty sausages juicy and flavoursome. Same with the bacon. Mushrooms cooked so that they have that lovely golden crisp edge. Never been a hash brown fan but love the ones they serve here. Perfect eggs etc. Get this. The beans are cooked with just a smidgeon of jalapeno peppers! It really gave a tangy edge to the whole experience. i am going back at the earliest opportunity just to have breakfast here. Oh, They should give me the strat hanging on the wall for writing such a nice review!

Delicious food. All four of us enjoyed our choices. Great service and friendly staff. Would most definitely go again.

This place is absolutely fantastic!! A lovely place to eat, either inside or out, and the food is amazing. We had quiche and if you get it with salad you get a spoonful of all the salads which I love because I'm greeedy and I want to try everything. They are not stingy with the portions :D The salads were really varied too- there's something for everyone. Oh, really cheerful staff too. The blonde lady who took our payment was really nice.

They cater for Gluten free,which was great. A good place to enjoy coffee and cake while putting a load through at the launderette a couple of doors away. Check out the lampshades hanging from the ceiling

The food here is great - fresh, imaginative and well priced. The decor is quirky and provides a clean comfortable environment. Decent music too and if it's too loud for you the manager assured me they will turn it down. Staff are friendly and service is swift. Well worth detouring away from the city centre and supporting local enterprise.

I've tried break at, lunch and sandwiches from here. They're all good. Best is to have an early lunch before it gets busy and sit outside. The salads are great as are the quiches.

A new favourite in Bath. Good coffee. Really delicious vegetable samosas. Friendly service and a nice vibe. Lots of nice things to try next time...

We were struggling to find somewhere nice to eat and then discovered this lovely place. It's a welcoming place, the staff (maybe they were the owners?) were helpful and friendly, the food was really tasty and the coffee good. We sat outside in the sunshine and felt all the better for our lovely lunch.

Lovely relaxed surroundings, very friendly staff, great food. I started each day of my short visit to Bath here. I ordered something different every morning, full English, scrambled egg on toast, sausage sandwich, croissant and everything was perfect. Good ingredients, cooked well and a lot of homemade treats too. All the staff were lovely with welcoming smiles and helpful, efficient and pleasant. The tall, attractive, blonde lady could flirt for England (in the nicest possible way). Altogether a lovely way to start the day for me.

It's a simple but effective recipe. Good wholesome, fresh food served by welcoming, friendly people at sensible prices right on your doorstep.

I love this deli, in fact it is my favourite place to lunch in Bath. Sometimes I just collect a takeaway if I am busy, the service is always excellent. Very reasonable prices which keeps me coming back for more. Congratulations to the owners of this lovely deli, you have just the perfect business strategy here, long may you continue. The quiches are the best in Bath - compliments to the chef. You have picked the nicest of staff too!

Been open five months and has never disappointed.warm and friendly atmosphere beautiful quiches, salads, light main courses and lovely cakes. 3 rooms so lots of space and great staff.

We came across this little gem when walking back into the city centre from Prior Park Gardens. The quirky floral decor and multitude of table lamps suspended from the ceiling are the perfect setting for the amazing, home made food. I had a balsamic tomato quiche with a delicious variety of homemade salads. The touch of mustard in the coleslaw was inspired. Although we didn't have dessert, the range of cakes and pies looked very tempting.
