About The De Beauvoir Deli

A Neighbourhood Grocer & Kitchen Since 2009

Tucked between Hackney and Islington, The De Beauvoir Deli has been part of everyday life in De Beauvoir Town since 2009. What began as a small neighbourhood grocer has grown into a busy café, bakery and community hub — a place for proper coffee, honest food and good ingredients handled with care.

We champion seasonal produce, trusted suppliers and the kind of simple cooking that’s best enjoyed around a table with family, friends and children in tow. From breakfast favourites and fresh pastries to vibrant salads, sandwiches and cakes, everything we serve is made with the same attention to detail you’d expect from a modern London deli.

Ingredients First. Always.

Our shelves and counters reflect the way we like to cook and eat:
– responsibly sourced meats and cheeses
– fresh fruit and vegetables
– store-cupboard staples
– independent makers we believe in

Quality is non-negotiable. We work with small producers wherever possible and bring in the best we can find — whether that’s an award-winning British cheese, a perfectly baked sourdough, or a jar of something brilliant for your kitchen at home.

A Café Made for Everyday Moments

The deli has become a go-to for breakfast in De Beauvoir, weekend pastries, lunchtime classics, and family-friendly meals. Our café space is relaxed, welcoming and built for real life — prams, laptops, newspapers and muddy paws included.

Whether you’re grabbing coffee on the school run or sitting down for a proper plate of food, our team aims to make it easy, warm and consistently good.

Part of the Community

For more than 15 years, we’ve supported local makers, taken part in neighbourhood events and welcomed generations of families through the door. We’re proud to be one of Hackney’s favourite independent cafés — and even prouder to still be serving the people who’ve been with us since the very beginning.
