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

    Such a lovely spot for brunch! Beautiful spaces, a cool fresh deli feel that I really enjoy, a really super team, and Amazing Foccacia Sandwiches! We had the (big!) half portions of The Mac and The Jo, and both were delicious! Every dish that went past our table looked equally good, and more visits are definitely on the cards

    One of the best dining experiences we’ve had so far in South Africa! The food and service were both exceptional and the ambience is incredible. Highly recommend.

    Lovely food but a little pricey for a pensioner. However, everything’s expensive these days.

    Very good food and nice people. We had the sliders , the steak and the obergine. Also the salad was surprising.
