Our Mission

We are a pair of friends that have come together bringing our mutual passion for food, quality coffee and the desire to create a space to provide unique products to the community of Oxted, and beyond.

Together, bringing our different backgrounds, careers and lifestyle choices, we have one combined mission and that is to create a welcoming space for the whole community, providing quality products and service at a reasonable price, and with a smile. We have a goal of being as sustainable and waste free as possible, caring for the environment and promoting a positive impact wherever we can, working with local businesses to support each other through the recent pandemic.

Predominantly running as a cosy café, we also stock a wide range of products that compliment our ethos of supplying interesting ingredients, unique flavours and quality stock. This also extends to our Deli Boxes that are available with just a day’s notice for any occasions – these are curated boxes for picnics, afternoon teas, birthday parties or working lunches and can be customised to suit any dietary requirements.

Our Coffee

Matt’s love for coffee led him to discovering BeanBerry Speciality Coffee Beans years ago and there was no question on which beans we would serve when deciding to open a coffee shop. BeanBerry are an artisan roaster based here in Surrey. They source the green beans from ethical coffee farms globally and then roast them each week to specific flavour profiles at their roastery just down the road in Woking.

Similarly, all of our produce, meats, cheese and ingredients have been hand-picked according to our extended period of research. While not everything is necessarily sourced “locally”, we have kept in mind the idea of sourcing the best products available that still maintains our ethos of supporting independent, smaller businesses and keeping our carbon footprint to a minimum.

Our Food

The food menu at The Deli is carefully thought out by our chef and co-owner, Lauren and draws inspiration from her travels across the world during her time spent cooking on Superyachts. There’s something for everyone on the menu, including several vegan and gluten-free options on both our sweet and savoury offerings. We primarily offer breakfast, brunch and lunch, with an all-day menu running from 9am – 4pm Mon – Saturday that extends to takeaway and a special Sunday Brunch menu from 10am – 2pm, specifically designed to be enjoyed on site.

Our main focus with the menu is offering simple but creative plates of food made from the highest quality ingredients we can get hold of, made with love and full of flavour.

You can expect seasonal changes to the menu and a range of locally baked goods available in our deli fridge from quiches and pies to our infamously delicious tray bakes and cakes!

Our Pop-ups & Deli Nights

We offer a series of pop up evenings at The Deli that are announced in advance on our social media platforms. The menus range from a fun Mexican inspired “Tacos & Tequila”, casual “Buns & Bubbles”, an exotic “Taste of Asia” to formal set tasting menus and seasonal specials. These nights are also available for whole private bookings at a price per head and can be booked directly via email, popping in or contacting us on socials.

Our off-site services

We offer a bespoke catering service for any occasion. From simple buffets, at-home barbecues to full service customised private dining. We offer custom baked cakes for birthdays, weddings and beyond, as well as tiered cheese wheel cakes for those weddings that prefer a savoury take on tradition! We can do it all and love offering a varied service that can be tailored exactly to each of our client’s wishes and requirements.
