The only positive for this place is the location. Food was overpriced and extremely average. $60 for 2 coffees and 2 meals. The wait for anything was very long, and our breakfasts were served before the coffees. Half way through eating our breakfasts the coffee arrived with no apologies for the delay. There is no customer service or even a smile. You can’t charge such high prices for sub par food and poor service. The people in the kitchen look to have a lot of potential but there seems to be a management issue as nothing was flowing. Overall, don’t bother stopping when driving through.
It was cold and miserable so no-one wanted to take an outside table. The queues grew. The young lady on the till was on her first day and was not up to speed.The one complaint is that nothing was labelled as being gluten free, and in consideration for the waiting patrons we didn’t ask what was or what could be GF as she would have had to check with the kitchen. My wife chose one meal that just had to be okay. The cashier had to ask for guidance when we ordered wine – the choice was limited to two whites – but then, it is not a restaurant.Contrary to several reviews, we found the staff to be very pleasant and most helpful.The ham, spinach and cheese omelette was said to be “nearly up to your standard.” High praise indeed – but then, she would say that. The bacon with my corn fritters was crisp and tasty, the fritters themselves were heavier than I’m used to, but I have to use GF flour when I cook for both of us, and it makes a much lighter product.Okay, the prices were a bit on the high side but we didn’t go away hungry. They will see us back as we have a few more trips to Cambridge to come.
Visited this cafe with my family on the 4th January. It was a huge disappointment ordered chicken pie with salad, salad looked like it had no life in it and chicken pie tasteless and very little chicken.Service very poor, cafe assistant taking the orders was sultry, disinterested and looked like she did not want to be there, very cold, enough to turn customers away.Definitely would not return one less customer.
Food and coffee was good but over priced for Cambridge, more like Auckland prices. $9 for a sausage roll, $10 for a pie. Also staff were a bit surly and drinks took a while to come. Overall probably won’t be coming again.
Good service, tasty coffee and even better pecan brioche. Happy customer.
15% surcharge is not much. Try Auckland, they do a surcharge of 20% on public holidays and people are very happy to pay that for good food. My husband and I love the Deli, it’s always worth the wait, no wonder so many people go there, it’s always busy, great vibe.—– 12 Sep, 2010 —–This place is great! It’s the only cafe I have been to Ian where service is at its best! Staff has not smiled so much than at the Deli! Everything is great here, if I lived closer I would have breakfast, lunch and dinner there!! Go Deli on the Corner!! A MUST stop for every local and traveler!
Stopped in Cambridge on Monday 30 January for something to eat and decided on The Deli. Was quite busy and waited a while to be served. Ordered two croissants and two cappuccinos – total $33.60 – I queried this with the girl behind the counter and she said there was a 15% surcharge – it was so busy and there were quite a lot of people in the queue – I ended up paying. Was going to go back after we finished but again it was really busy. Would think twice about going back there – staff not very smiley at all!!
