Probably not the ABSOLUTE best, but I've given it 5 stars because I'm factoring in value. Where else can you get a gorgeous roast beef or pastrami granary baguette with thick slices of meat and gherkins for £2 these days? Or try their heavenly honey and walnut tart for only £1.15 a slice! Everything tastes home-made and super-fresh with only the best quality ingredientsProbably not the ABSOLUTE best, but I've given it 5 stars because I'm factoring in value.

We ordered a haggis for a Burns' Night supper and this butcher sourced one in Scotland. There were plenty of Scots at the meal - some of whom were on their fourth Burns' Night supper this week - and all agreed it was the best haggis they'd ever tasted. They wanted to know where we got it from. Happy to recommend them.

Freeman's always have superb meat and can get anything you want if given enough notice.We ordered a haggis for a Burns' Night supper and this butcher sourced one in Scotland.

This place is poor and be sure to check the sell by date on anything you buy.

When will someone open a world class Italian Deli in London instead of this type of disgraceful establishments.

M&S sell better Parmigiano than nearly all Italian delis in London including Camisa ,Terrone ,Luigis, Lina Stores et al

It's sad to say that many of the first or second generation of Italians imigrants who opened these establishments prospered on the ignorance of the local market but the UK has made huge gastronomic progress in the last 15 years. Selling too young Parmesan and inferior Procuito crudos will not cut it anymore.

Why don't they look at Peck in Milan or Valvona & Crolla in the capital of bonnie Scotland as benchmarks......This place is poor and be sure to check the sell by date on anything you buy.

The full Portugese equation in the middle of Pimlico. Delicias de Portugal has a deli, shop and a cafe.

A fun place to have a coffee or pick-up some classic Portugese custard tarts - Pastel de Nata and the tasty paper-wrapped cakes - Bollo de Arroz.The full Portugese equation in the middle of Pimlico. Delicias de Portugal has a deli, shop and a cafe.
