A proper deli full of treats!
We started Papadeli in 2002 with all the most delicious, l speciality foods from local and European artisan producers. All our homemade food was made behind the counter in a tiny kitchen by Papa and Catrin was behind the counter. These days, our chefs above the deli make imaginative, nutritious take-home dishes and our brilliant baker makes the cakes.
Customers started asking if they could have the food they tasted in the deli at weddings and parties, so Papadeli catering was born – mostly delivered in the back of an old Peugeot 309! Things have changed a bit since then, but we’re still making creative, sustainably sourced, beautiful food perfect for sharing for Bristol and the South West.

Where can you find the finest extra virgin olive oil? Bean to bar chocolates? Artisan jams, wines, biscuits? Fine food hampers? It’s all here at Papadeli. Browse hampers, vouchers and classes.
And of course, there’s the cookery school! So much fun and so informative. Cookery classes taught by professional chefs using the best ingredients.

“Deli inspired by our time living in Italy, France and Spain…”
Back then, Catrin ran the deli (with the help of Mark our first employee) and Simon cooked. Our catering service grew from small weddings and office lunches to events for hundreds. We make everything here, from wedding buffets and canapes for 200 to packed lunches for 500 and a range of stunning cakes. You can also find the MOST delicious takeaway food and ready meals.
A few evenings a month, the top floor kitchen is taken over for cookery lessons, which had proved to be really popular, with many having waiting lists. Check out our cookery classes
