The Deli Social is a warm, community-driven deli, bakery, and pantry nestled in the heart of Hout Bay. We celebrate local flavours, seasonal produce, and South Africa’s artisanal food culture through curated grazing boards, handcrafted sandwiches, and small-batch baked goods fresh from our micro-bakery. Our space is relaxed yet refined – perfect for brunch dates, family catchups, or grabbing your favourite pantry staples.

We source our cheeses, charcuterie, and ferments from some of the Cape’s most exciting producers, and our ever-changing menu highlights the best of what’s local, wild, and in season. Whether you’re here for a slow morning coffee, a signature focaccia sandwich, or a weekend grazing platter, The Deli Social offers a food-forward experience rooted in authenticity, storytelling, and a touch of nostalgia

    We had a lovely evening at The Deli Social. Staff were attentive and friendly, the interior is cosy and welcoming. We created a lovely charcuterie board (beautifully curated products to choose from) and enjoyed plenty of their fresh focaccia and some small plates. All delicious. I love The Deli Social during the day but I think I like it even better at night. Can’t wait to return.

    Delicous breakfast! Every component of my Turkish eggs was delicous: great sourdough, tasty yoghurt, perfectly cooked eggs - great!

    Excellent food and service. Wish they have more guests in the evening, since always full during the day.

    Lovely decor, excellent service and brilliant selection of small plates. Locally sourced, considered ingredients. All wines listed are available by the glass. An excellent experience.
