Delicatessen Northampton
A visit to The Larder Deli is sure to delight your senses... as soon as you walk through the door you feast your eyes on a huge array of tempting goods. The smells of our large selection of artisan cheeses, meats and pies, fresh fruit and vegetables will be sure to get your mouth watering and, if you are not quite sure about which cheese or type of olive you want, our friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff will be delighted to give you a taster to help with your decision.
Our shelves are packed with a whole variety of olive oils, sauces, relishes, pickles, preserves, honeys, mustards, dressings, nibbles and savouries, not to mention sweets and award-winning handmade chocolates. Other specialist sections in the shop are:
Cheeses
Wouldn't life without cheese be miserable? We have a full cheese counter bursting with award winning British and continental cheeses, something to tempt any cheese lover - from creamy bries to fully-matured eye-watering cheddar. Or why not try our weekly guest cheese? And we'd be delighted to create a tailor-made cheeseboard for you.
Local Beers
Did you know that Northamptonshire was, at one time, nearly as famous for its beers as it was for its shoe industry? We stock a comprehensive range of beers brewed by surviving independent breweries, from the lightest of ales to the headiest of hoppy brews.
Charcuterie
Top quality baked hams, salamis, pates and terrines and cured meats like Parma ham and pastrami make the meat section a delight to the eye and the nose.
Olive & Salad Bars
The olive bar is where you can pick and mix not only a wide selection of marinated olives from Greece, Italy and Spain but delicacies like marinated achiovies, stuffed peppers and other mouth watering sensations. You can also pre-book home-cooked entrees and salads or try one of our varieties of handmade scotch eggs or quiches.
Local Produce
We try to source as much local produce as possible: our breads are from local bakeries, our honey is made by contented local bees, our eggs are from local free-range chickens and our pies are handmade locally.
Free From Range
We offer a selection of "free from" foods for those with special dietry requirements, such as diabetic jams and marmalades, gluten free and sugar free products.
All of our products can be used to fill hampers and gift boxes that we can deliver nationwide.
The Larder Deli is open from 10am to 5pm Tuesday to Saturday and 11am to 5pm on Sundays and Bank Holidays. We are in the Rural Shopping Yard in Castle Ashby (www.ruralshoppingyard-castleashby.co.uk) and easily reached via the A45, A509 or the A248 - see map. Pop in if you are passing, or make an afternoon of it and browse the variety of craft, clothing and gift shops at the Yard.
