The Hayfield Deli(Persian/middle eastern food) — Restaurant in Oxford

The Hayfield Deli catered for my summer BBQ a couple of weeks ago and they were Fantastic! We had about 60 adults and 10 children and Everyone raved about the food. It really made the party. One friend, who is a real foodie said "that is the best buffet I have EVER had at a BBQ". Not only is the food delicious, fresh, well presented, in good quantities and interesting but Mahdy and his staff are wonderful. They were so helpful and good humoured. Smiling whilst having the move tables under cover when the English rain came down on us and then taking them out again under the sun. It is stressful organising a big party and Mahdy made me feel so relaxed, supported and excited about the party when he came round a few days before to bring round equipment, smiling and even offering to help set up my own marquee. He also brought round extra sausages for the children. I cannot recommend them highly enough and I will definitely use them again....

The Hayfield Deli is an absolute treasure! Not only do they serve incredible, authentic Persian and Middle Eastern dishes, but they also function as a delightful mini-supermarket. You'll find a wide variety of groceries, perfect for stocking up on those unique spices and ingredients.

The cozy atmosphere instantly makes you feel welcome, and the owners’ warm hospitality is the cherry on top. Their homemade dishes burst with flavour. I highly recommend the hummus (the best I've had!), and any of their fresh salads. They also have a tasty selection of pastries and treats that perfectly complement a cup of their aromatic tea.

The Hayfield Deli is the perfect place to discover the vibrant cuisine of the Middle East. Whether you're looking for a satisfying breakfast/lunch, a cup of coffee with a friend, or hard-to-find groceries. Generous portions, affordable prices, and genuine passion for food make The Hayfield Deli a...

Love Mehdi's place. The display of fruit and veg outside has been a lifesaver for my young daughter as it's distracted her away from less healthy treats and means she is drawn to the fruit automatically!

Amazing hummus, amazing babaghanoush, but the best thing he does are the beans in tomato sauce - when I had terrible sickness in pregnancy with my second child, these were the only things I could stomach and my husband had to go and pick them up for me daily!

Not only this but there was a time I had a 3 year old, newborn, all screaming and crying, we were exhausted and I managed to placate the 3 year old with snacks from the Hayfield Deli but when I went to pay I hadn't brought my wallet. I nearly burst into tears, but the absolutely wonderful shop assistant let me have the items anyway. The kindness was so appreciated!

Wish we still...
