Back'S Deli

Funny place. I love the range of produce available but ordering a sandwich is a confusing process. There's just too many options for my small mind to cope with and I end up going into buffet mode - just grabbing things that look good but don't necessarily work together! If I could suggest anything I would say, have a smaller menu of say 8 solid sandwiches, then if people want to customise they can. Other than that they have lovely staff and excellent alcohol range

Nice deli, fresh veg on sale. Good catering food.

Great selection of home cooked foods, beers, wines and excellent coffee.

Beware the cheese. Just bought some Garstang Blue (a cheese I normally buy when in North Lanacashire, so I know what it should be like). It was sweaty and the blue had turned a pale grey. Tasted off! Generally overpriced for items that are OK but no better than supermarket equivlents.

lovely staff, great food , not cheap but worth the price , I will be coming again soon !

I have been shopping at Backs for years and I have never had anything less than totally fresh and delicious food including a lot of shop-made products .Additionally the staff are always friendly and helpful .

Fine choice of beers, meats, fresh veg, cheese (wish it wasn't shrink wrapped) and excellent bread. Great soups. The manager puts some great tunes on in the background occasionally (King Fatty etc...) and the staff are friendly and efficient. Another Heaton gem.

Awful food. I ordered a jacket with tuna. tuna was fine but it was masking a jacket potato that was old, brown and reheated. I feel I should write a review because it is disgusting to sell old potatoes when they are so cheap and easy to throw away. I am writing this as I feel so ill as a result of eating this contaminated food. Delicatessens should only serve the best and freshest food if they want a good reputation which this one does not deserve.
