Harnham Road, Salisbury, SP2 8JG
I mentioned East Harnham Deli a few posts back on our walk to Odstock. Here’s a little more about it. Neatly perched just beyond Harnham bridge, it retains its original name on the shop hoarding, ‘A. Hand and Sons’. Outside are blackboards advertising the delicious wares of the deli from sweets and cakes (the best lemon drizzle cake we’ve tasted, they use real lemons and lots of them!) to homemade tarts and pasties. It sells a good selection of ‘dry’ deli foods made by decent companies including pasta, rice, cereals, tinned soup and more.
The real draw of the deli is however its fresh produce, much of it homemade which caters evenly for meat eaters and vegetarians. How wonderful to be able to buy excellent quality chorizo and marinated olives at the same time? Also available are stunning cheeses, fresh locally grown vegetables and fresh bread - the cashew nut bread is particularly good. The cold drinks available are also worthy of mention. They stock almost the whole range of Fentimans botanically brewed drinks including ginger beer, real lemonade and our favourite, danelion and burdock. This place is obviously run by people who love their food and drink and want to run a proper deli - it would be good to find out more about who they are! The fact it is open on Sundays also tells you something of their desire to not just run a shop but provide a service to the community and to visitors passing through.
East Harnham Deli have been nominated for the UKTV Local Food Hero 2006 awards. We wish them the best.
