After walking from Edinburgh Castle to The Britannia, it was time for a much needed snack. This beautiful deli is tucked away right along the water offering great views while enjoying a bite. The owners were super friendly and made the experience. The food is fantastic!!!!! It’s full of flavor, but light and airy. Wether you are visiting or a local, I’d highly recommend.

I ventured into Shore Deli for a bit of lunch, lured in by its cosy charm and the promise of something hearty. I settled on the Mumma’s sandwich, stacked with prosciutto, salami, and mozzarella—ingredients that, on paper, sounded like the makings of a proper masterpiece. It arrived after a precise 13 minutes and 6 seconds (aye, I counted again—consistency is important, even in sandwich science). The focaccia was spot on: good chew, a wee bit of crisp, the kind of bread that makes you nod approvingly like you’ve just heard a good ceilidh tune. But here’s the rub: I was left wanting more pesto—a drizzle here and there does not a flavour explosion make. And I while the sandwich was nice enough, it leaned more on the basic side. Nothing wrong with simple, mind you, but at the price they were charging, I was expecting a sandwich that sang louder than a piper on Sauchiehall Street. Instead, it was more of a polite hum.

Everything was great from the welcoming staff to the delicious dishes. Special note for the carrot soup, I wish I could eat soups that tasty every day!
