About Widcombe Deli (thebathdelico)
Widcombe Deli operates as a pop-up cafe running out of The Ram Pub on Claverton St in Bath, after the original shop moved next door. Food is home-baked from local produce, and the counter pours its own brand of coffee, j.j beano's. The menu covers quiches, salads and salad boxes, alongside bakes and pastries, with steak pies available to take away. Gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian options run through the range, and dogs are welcome on site. Ordering is at the counter, walk-in, with no bookings taken. Seating runs both indoors and outdoors, with tables at the front for watching the street. Outside catering is offered for parties and picnics, and a full breakfast menu is served alongside the rest of the food.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast is what reviewers return to most, from full-English plates described as hot and tasty to freshly cooked meals that one pair came back for on a second morning, leaving with steak pies and pastries. Close behind are the quiches, the varied side salads and salad boxes, and the cakes, with a flat white and rocky road cake singled out. One reviewer praises a ham and cheese sandwich made to order and packed with filling. Diners describe friendly staff, an informal order-at-the-counter setup, and outdoor seating for watching the world go by, though several note it gets busy at coffee and lunchtime. The complaints are small but specific. One reviewer waited longer than preferred for a breakfast order at a packed mid-morning service, another found staff did not know what they had ordered when it came to pay, and a third found the signs warning off shoplifters and people overstaying on the free wifi unwelcoming. Reviewers also note that the cafe does not take bookings, and one leaves with a pair of steak pies in hand.

“Onwards and upwards with my "compare and contrast" mission of Widcombe full-English breakfasts. This is the third Saturday on the trot and although I've been to The Ram from a bevvying perspective before, this is the first time I've tried the Deli side of it. First off, what a great idea. Judging by the number of punters in here at 1030, it is a winning concept. But that does bring me to the lost star on service - the place is going like a fair so my order was delayed and I spent a wee bit longer waiting than would have been preferred. But they handled it well, the staff are friendly and good natured. The food itself was excellent. Hot, tasty and the right amount of variety, quality and quantity. I enjoyed it 👍”

“We were staying at the close by Travelodge and decided to find a local cafe for breakfast. We found the Ram the previous evening for a drink and as this is a cafe/pub and chose it for breakfast. Lovely reception by the team there, great freshly cooked food. Went there for the second morning and came away with two steak pies and some pastries.”

“Lovely Flat white and rocky road cake. Nice selection of food and snacks available with indoor or outdoor seating. Cafe is just a few minutes' walk from the train station on the other side of the canal. Charming venue, and it was nice sitting out front watching the world go by”

“Yhe Original cafe has moved next door to The Ram Pub as a pop up .... We are still offering the same style of food and menu but just next door! – everything is home-baked from local produce, plus they have their own brand of coffee, j.j beano’s. They offer outside catering for parties and picnics and can also deliver too. Gluten-free options, vegan and vegetarian. It’s also dog friendly and serves quiches, pastries, bakes, snacks and salads as well as a great range of homemade cakes. The Deli is also available for large groups, we can set aside an area for you and your party, ask us about individually tailored brunches! Full breakfast menu available.”
