The Hayfield Deli(Persian/middle eastern food)

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 must-try in Oxford!

Lovely preserved lemons

Fantastic place - the food is amazing - authentic Iranian faire by an award winning chef / owner - highly recommend making a special trip to try it out - the lunch boxes are very tasty and there are lovely places like Port Meadow and the Aristotle park nearby to relax and enjoy it in!

Cold and old baked pastry..

I've been working at the Deli for a couple of months now and It is by far the best place I've ever worked! The owner, Mahdy is super nice and friendly and he's an incredible chef too! The lunchboxes are by far my favourite but the the shop also has some really tasty things! I've really enjoyed working here as well as getting to know the lovely people around! If I could give more stars I would!!

I just had a fantastic lunch box from Hayfield Deli. I chose the vegetarian curry over rice, as well as the potato salad and the aubergine salad for sides. They were all excellent. Highly recommend this clean and delicious spot for lunch!

absolutely delicious take-away lunch of magic persian dishes. we sat on the benches opposite by the canal. healthy and tasty.

The Hayfield is so well stocked and always has what I need last minute. I love their take away dishes for a quick lunch, the mini spinach pastries are a particular favourite.
