About Charlbury Deli & Cafe
Charlbury Deli & Cafe is a community-owned food shop and café on the corner of Market Street and Browns Lane in Charlbury. Originally founded as the Good Food Shop in 1990 by around 60 local residents who formed a limited company, it was later renamed Charlbury Deli & Cafe to give customers a reason to visit from the nearby Co-op. The business moved to its current home, the Corner House, in November 2025. It describes itself as Charlbury town centre's only food shop, serving coffee made from beans roasted by New Ground, a B Corp Certified social enterprise in Oxford, alongside home-baked cakes, pastries, and sourdough bread from Mark's Cotswold Bakery near Chipping Norton. About 80% of what the deli sells comes from Oxfordshire suppliers. The menu includes breakfast items such as smashed avocado on sourdough toast, scrambled Cacklebean eggs, and a selection of croissants and pastries, plus a lunch menu featuring Cotswold pies and mash, homemade soup, locally made quiche, baked potatoes, and sandwiches. The deli also stocks local food and drink, loose Belgian chocolates, and gift hampers made to order. Rotating work by local artists and potters is displayed on the walls and shelves, much of it for sale. The business offers outside catering for events including funerals, memorial services, meetings, and private views.
