If you haven't tried this new cafe, do. Delicious coffee and fantastic home made muffins plus a tempting menu board. Wi fi and both outside and inside seating. English newspapers. I will be back very shortly! On the main road same block as doviz, dry cleaner, DVD rental and car wash so you can do lots of things at the same time!

Oh that sounds interesting - what is the 'deli' connection - I was dreaming of UK like deli foodstuffs ! - Yip I am 'deli' Turkish style! LOL!
Good luck to them

Please everyone do not rush here at once. We had an uncomfortable time here yesterday as inside there are only 3 tables. Luckily for us there was only one occupied when we arrived but it soon looked to be a busy lunchtime. There was a cool breeze so everyone wanted to sit inside. I know there are sofas there but it is uncomfortable having people sitting waiting round you, while you eat. We had to eat our lunch and leave as soon as. To be honest the food was ok. I do wish them well but think they may need help to be a bit more professional.

Isn't this the place that used to be called The Great British Cafe? If it is, then good luck to them, but honestly I think the "deli" bit is a misnomer, but then everyone has different opinions as to what a deli really is.

Think "Deli" is turkish deli, nothing to do with delicatessen.
Good luck Lydia and Ibo

Just had brunch at the " crazy cafe " and really enjoyed.Choice of coffees, uncomplicated menu, all freshly prepared and delicious homemade cakes and pastries
I found it much less cramped thàn the cafe britain, there are 4 tables inside now, using the space inside and not just crammed into the lean to bit on the front, and of course there is the outside eating area to sit in the sunshine.
Pleasant place for breakfast/lunch or cuppa and cake
