A newer addition to the roster of great delis, Farm Shop was set up last year from the team behind Hauser and Wirth, the Audley pub and Mount Street Restaurant. Some of the fare makes its way into these kitchens, offering truly top tier produce. Expect the best of the best seasonal British ingredients, from New Forest asparagus to Cornish Yarg cheese and just about everything else besides. Don't miss the wine bar downstairs, either .
£6 loaves of bread? £10 cookies? Where else but Daylesford? If the wallet can stretch, then there are few nicer places to shop for an hour or so than the Daylesford outpost in Marylebone. The provenance can't be questioned, with so much of their ingredients organic and/or house-made. Just close your eyes and ears as they ring up your basket.
This cafe-cum-deli opened in 2019 and might be thought of as the thinking man's Daylesford. The exuberant prices of Marylebone haven't abated entirely, but the whole thing is altogether more reasonable. Punnets of freshly baked goods line walls and uprated pantry items, think beetroot salt or Deukes monofloral honey are abundant.
Baked goods, salads, sandwiches and good coffee sit alongside a vibrant Middle Eastern cupboard, with everything from Lebanese Al Yaman Tahini to organic Tunisian preserved Lemons. A must visit for fans of the well-known Honey and Co group.
More than just haggis and shortbread, who knew? The Scotch-founded Auld Hag (or Shoap) opened last year to plug an Irn-Bru-shaped gap in the market and have been slinging classic Scottish produce — be that fresh, chilled or frozen — ever since. It's a small store which somewhat feels like it's finding its feet , but nowhere else in town has this breadth of Scottish ingredients. Or Tennents on tap.
This lesser-known Spanish deli operates a buzzing site on Exmouth market, and a space in Dalston. The strapline is "Ultramarinos y Aperitivos", which roughly translates here to groceries and snacks. That's perhaps a bit of an undersell as Furanxo also stocks a variety of excellent Spanish wines, a number of Iberico jamon on the bone and some of the best selections of independent Spanish tinned fish in London.
