Amazing deli and bakery!! I loved the vibes and the service was fantastic- shout out to Lara specifically, she helped a lot and made the entire experience even better!

I absolutely loved it in Branca! The atmosphere is lovely. We sat outside and the vibes were great. The waitress helping us was especially lovely (wish I knew her name! She had dangly pink earrings on!). It was a bit chilly outside but the food quickly warmed us up. Overall, I really enjoyed the family dinner I had here. Would recommend this place to friends and family for pretty much any occasion!
Food ordered (enough for 5 adults!):
- Chicken escalope (the meat was very tender and the taste reminded me a bit of Chinese cuisine)
- Risotto (it was surprisingly sweet! So delicious - 2nd favourite item)
- Lebanese spiced Aubergine
- Grilled sea bass
- Triple cooked fat chips
- mixed greens (so good!)
- chocolate nemesis + pistachio ice cream (what an amazing dessert! Would definitely recommend!)

Nice place, sound staff, would avoid the food though

Got some nice salads and deli stuff to take away. Junior staff were fine, senior guy seemed think we were unworthy of darkening their doors. Fennel salami is obviously pricey so no problem with that, but good manners cost nothing wherever you are

Thank you so much we hired the private room for my daughter?s family hen party. The location, food, atmosphere and service was outstanding. The staff worked so hard and nothing was too much trouble five stars from us all. My sister in law said the pizza was the best she had ever had!

Visit to Branca Deli ? 20/06/25
Yesterday, 20th June 2025, we visited Branca Deli for a coffee while waiting for the restaurant to open at 5pm. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing, primarily due to the poor service ? particularly from the deli manager on duty.
We raised two main concerns, both of which were met with indifference:
The seating area at the back of the deli was uncomfortably cold. When we mentioned this to the manager, he was dismissive and made no effort to address the issue.
The coffee was of very poor quality. It was bitter and undrinkable. Again, when we expressed our dissatisfaction, the response was a disinterested ?Sorry to hear,? with no offer of a replacement or apology beyond that.
We left feeling extremely disappointed. We didn?t finish our coffees and certainly weren?t offered any gesture of goodwill. As regular customers of both Branca Deli and Branca Restaurant, we expected much better. Sadly, this experience has put us off returning.

The food was excellent. All for guests had a different thing from the menu and pretty much couldn't fault them apart from a minor thing here or there, but that's being picky. I have only given it three stars for atmosphere as it was quite cold and noisy. They were a bit cheeky adding a reasonably high percentage automatically for service charge and then asking us if we wanted to add a tip

I?m a regular visitor here, food and drink is always tasty .a few issues though, expensive, small portions, staff seem disinterested at times , finally tho it advertises the deli and cafe side open until 8 , the coffee/tea making is not available after 6 which is really annoying.
I?ll take some photos of the small portions next time

I was part of a larger party with the downstairs room booked. Service was so good I didn't even notice the plates disappear!
Food was very tasty, perhaps slightly small portions for the price.
Would Def recommend for a special occasion!
