Norma's Deli Is a Good Reason to Linger on the Corso

Some places make you choose between breakfast, lunch and a stop at the grocer. Norma's Deli would rather you do all three.

Tucked into 74–78 The Corso, Norma's is part deli, part café and part bakery, with the energy of a working kitchen. The appeal is immediate: coffee, a display of baked goods, sandwiches made to order and shelves that give you another reason to look around before leaving.

One shop, several good ideas

The menu moves between everyday café stops and a more substantial deli lunch. There are sandwiches, savoury options, cakes and pastries, with enough variety to suit a quick takeaway or a slower visit at a table.

The Mediterranean and Greek influence is part of Norma's identity, but it is not a tightly themed restaurant. It feels more like a busy all-day shop where the bakery, pantry and kitchen are working together.

The cake counter is serious business

Norma's specialises in cakes and catering, from whole cakes and smaller sweets to sandwich platters and grazing boxes for groups. Its ordering site lists pastries and boxes for collection, which makes it useful well beyond the usual coffee stop.

If you're organising a birthday or office lunch, the catering menu is the one to check rather than relying on what happens to be in the cabinet that morning.

Find Norma's

The deli is open daily according to its official website, generally from 8am to 5pm or until sold out. That last detail matters if you're after a particular bake.
