Abersoch Deli — Restaurant in Wales

Have been getting my lunch a few times a week from here over the last year. Usually good until the last three visits. Baguettes are now refrigerated most days (in September 2025) so a nice crispy baguette is now soft and stale that really doesn't need to be. A Ploughman's comes with mayonnaise on rather than pickle which is a bit backward, when I politely mentioned a Ploughman's is meant to have pickle not mayo I was glared at like I was from Pluto. Pay by card and they put a compulsory tip on the card machine (which I felt compelled to give as was served by a young lad who was brilliant) but then leaving with a soft/stale baguette and owner is miserable more often than not makes me feel like I've been bent over and had a glass encrusted baseball bat inserted into my rear. I feel they have gone lax and lost passion which is disappointing as a deli in Abersoch is a license to print money but they don't seem to care or are capable of taking constructive criticism by the lack of reply on the reviews. I'm sorry but it...

I went in this afternoon and asked for a plain ham baguette. The woman (I think she was the manager) said “we can’t do that because it’s not how we operate”. I then replied “you did one for me last time”. She then said “it depends on how busy it is”. I was the only customer in the shop so I said “but I’m the only person in here”. The woman then got aggressive with me and said “would you like to come in here and do it yourself I have told you why I’m not arguing with you. These poor girls have been here since 08:30. What have you done today?”. (It was 14:30 at the time) I then replied “I’ve drove down here today I’m not arguing with you I’m just having a conversation”. She was then threatened me saying I wouldn’t be served again so I asked for my money back and left. This is a real shame because I have always like going to the Abersoch deli as the baguettes have always been lovely. I will not be going again- a plain ham baguette is not a big ask and I do not appreciate how the woman in there...

So often these days the food we get from eateries promise so much but deliver a certain level of disappointment. Well, the food we got from Abersoch Deli does NOT disappoint. We shared a pastie, a tuna baton and a coffee and there was not one bit of disappointment. A rarity in this day and age. It was tasty and fresh and not one bit was left. Also, I must say the service was polite and pleasant. Something else which is lacking in many establishments today. The only downside was the cost of the cakes. A bit too expensive really. Never mind, saves my waistline...
