This deli has got to be one of the best places to pick up some seriously good Italian produce…read more From its home-made pasta and pesto, to the selection of Italian sausage and salamis, olives and cheese, everything is top quality. Also sells the most wonderful looking bushy topped fennel and pomodorino pachino tomatos which just melt in the mouth. Fantastic, real Italian family-run place with great fresh authentic produce.

M. Moen & Sons make raw meat look so delightful. When I buy meat from this place I don't even want…read moreto cook it. I just want to preserve the carcass and hang it up in my living room. The cut is just so beautiful. The prices are expensive though. This is like a holiday meat place. Go here for your Christmas turkey or your Easter sirloin steak. They don't really discount, so maybe you can buy one slab of meat a week from here for Sunday dinner. If you do want to sample some of their meat but you're on a budget, usually during warm weather periods they smoke/roast a pig on the road outside of their shop and make pork sandwiches on the weekend. The pig smells delightful as you're walking up the street. When you see it on the skewer rotating around it looks kind of sad because usually the head is still on it, but it still smells so good. The sandwiches are amazing and they're only £3. So sorry for the little oinker that's on the barby, but so happy for my tummy.

If you're looking for sauerkraut straight out of Deutschland or fettuccini from Florence, this place is going to save the day. Everything looks and smells so delightful. If I could bottle up the scent of that shop and spread it all over my house I would never leave home. In fact, I would become a hardcore misanthropic hermit leaving the house only when I needed a scent refill from the delicatessen. The prices here are cheap as well and they have an array of fresh cut deli meat, so you can feast for less than supermarket prices if you stock up here.

Outside the door there's a wonderful bread and pizza stall, so one can pick up an all-important crisp baguette or two before heading back home to open a good red wine for a feast. Waitrose is replacing Somerfield, so they may have more competition soon, although as the area is something of a foodie paradise (eg Dove the butcher, and a fish stall), it may just draw in more discerning locals.
