The Deli

Welcome to the heart of it all—our deli counter, where flavours change daily, the shelves are stacked with local treasures, and the coffee machine never stops humming.

Inside a deli shop with a display case of pastries, a man in an apron behind a counter, menu boards on the wall, and a customer at the counter.

At The Bow Deli, everything starts at the counter. It’s where you’ll find our ever-changing lineup of hot sandwiches, flaky pastries, homity pies, handmade cakes, and hearty soups—all crafted with bold flavours and proper ingredients. We don’t do bland. From the fiery kick of our Nashville Hot Chicken to the buttery richness of a Croque Monsieur, every bite is built to satisfy. Dietary requirements can be catered for, and now, with our new seating area, you can pull up a chair and enjoy it all right here with us. Deli by name, flavour by nature.

We’re proudly stocked with the best of the West—loaves from Heyl Bakery, West Country cheeses, Cornish honey, and proper free-range eggs. Our shelves are a love letter to local produce, handpicked for quality and taste. It’s a deli, but better: a place to eat, drink, shop and linger. And with some exciting events and evening pop-ups on the horizon, there’s plenty more to come. Keep an eye on our specials board—and watch this space.
