This place is really very cute... I don't know why I haven't reviewed it sooner... hmmm…read more It is (somewhat obviously) a shop dedicated to Italian food. Though I have to admit at times it can be a tinsy bit pricey for those on the budget.... but its so cute and has so many imports you can't find in St. Andrews that the premium is worth it. They have my favourite type of Amaretti cookies which I was super excited about! But I have to say I couldn't afford their Truffle oil (go to Morrisons, they have it too... and cheap but probably not the same quality as the Little Italian Shop). When my parents where visiting we came here and got some cheese and pasta and pesto sauce (and wine of course) and made a meal from this place. And (don't hate me for mentioning it again) but the shop is just so cute that I can't help but love it! Sometimes I get a little worried though when I walk by and I don't see anyone inside.... I don't want this place to close because of the recession!

There are few more cozy, friendly and specialised shops in St Andrews (except maybe the Christmas…read moreShop ;) ) . A large, authentic selection of Italian food items is matched with fresh products, meat, cheese of all descriptions. Prices may be a little bit steep, but are good value - the products are of a very high quality.

Really good find here…read more Although on both visits it does get busy, so noise can bouce around and it's fairly popu;ar with parents and kids. Other than that, food seems to be good. But they are just far too aldente with the french beans on visit one. After saying twice that the needed to be cooked more (served rock hard to us) we used the microwave to blast them. They did however take the beans off the bill and apoligised. Lovely wee gift shop full of delightful and dainty gifts. The deli is just as good and stocks the beer from the microbrewery much to the hubbies delight.

Thanks go to Mason for leading our little party to this amazing spot!…read more The deli & farm/gift shop is totally amazing and super adorable. The brownie is decadent, rich and with the right amount of crunch & gooey ratio. Scotch egg was yum, sausage roll got the thumbs up. Much cheese was bought and consumed. They have my fave (Comte) which was a super added bonus. Great place to stop for a bite and a wander around. Try not to miss the Brewery tours like we did... (gives us a reason to go back!). Don't be afraid to ask for tasters of the beers, grab a pint and sit on a comfy couch to enjoy it! If only I had a car... I'd totally be back.. but I'm sure I'll find a way to return.. somehow!

I discovered this wee gem, not long being open whilst passing through portobello…read more What drew me in was the newly painted exterior with the nicely displayed products in the window, so in l went. On entering l was greeted by one if the owners who said "hello and how are you today " and that alone is something rare these days, never met such polite staff and helpful in every way. The first thing l noticed when l walked in was how well stocked the shop was, everything was in its place, on the shelves where stocked with locally sourced in Edinburgh or Scotland, from biscuits to locally made jam. There where in house made pizza slices to go as well as coleslaw, and cheesecake. The Mouse hole deli stock a variety of scottish cheeses with a selection of cold cut meats, with the usual deli items such as the salads, fresh eggs available and an assortment of baked breads. The prices here are pretty good considering you are supporting locally sourced goods that are made nearby. I do see myself coming back? Most definitely. Service 5* Atmosphere 5* Value 5*

Fantastic food, excellent service…read more Don't miss this hidden treasure. Their selection of cheeses is mouth-watering, and the owner will make you any sandwich you want without comment. One wall is completely taken up with shelves of sauces, treats, and other little prepared nibbles to take away. Very affordable and not far from the water. Owner was quite friendly and welcoming - I wish I lived in this neighborhood so I could be a regular!

Where do I start? The cheese on offer is fantastic but it ruins you. Once you have had cheese from…read morethe Kilted Frog, supermarket cheese tastes bland and lifeless. The KF offers a wide selection of cakes and sweets, from macaroons to scones, tarts, rock cakes to novelty gingerbread sheep. If you're an early bird, I recommend the pain au chocolat which is usually only available in the morning. If you want fantastic food in a friendly place with character then head down to the Kilted Frog. I'm surprised that nobody has yelp reviewed this place yet but almost all the reviews on other sites are 4 or 5 stars.

This is a foodies corner store with lots of interesting items, see my pic…read more The long skinny baguette sandwiches are solid and have veggie and meat lovers options. The cheese selection is very good as well. The buttery brie in the display case is just melting away by the minute. I recommend you get a salami sandwich to go and find a nice picnic spot in this cute little town or use it to sop up all that Edradour. ;)

So, this is also known as THE SCOTTISH DELI!!!…read more Lovely local cheese, esp recommend the Black Bomber if you like creamy sharp cheddar. The staff were also super nice and were accommodating enough to make me a ice-cream coffee (I got a half cup of the flat white and then got a scoop of the local vanilla ice-cream added - delicious!). Also this place was the only shop serving food that was open on the High Street on a Friday evening after 5pm (they close at 5:30). Would recommend.

One of the best meals I've had in Scotland! My absolutely delicious meal consisted of a Chicken…read moreTikka Panini with a side salad, White Chocolate Coconut Cake and tea. The panini was so flavorful, with plentiful filling, and served hot and toasted. I'm so glad I chose it! The side salad was a nice optional addition, and I'm glad I made that choice. It was quite a filling meal and with my soda cost less than 8£. Another good decision was to get a slice of the White Chocolate Coconut Cake with a pot of tea. The cake was moist and fresh with a beautiful white hi plate icing with coconut on top. It was all so delicious! The deli also has coffee and lots more on the menu. As well they gave a small selection of gourmet deli items, fresh free-range eggs, cheeses, and lovely looking produce. Well worth a visit!

Located very near the west end of Union Street, this delicatessen stocks lots of deli-type foods…read morefrom oils to biscuits, to cold meats and pates. If you are looking for something of high quality or just something extra-ordinary that you won't find in the shops, this is your place. I have visited here for my lunch on many occasions. THey always have a takeaway menu with usually a 2 or 3 of sandwiches or paninis (one veg). Salad boxes, quiches and a soup. I think the owner and some (if not all) of the staff are French. Therefore the food menu reflects this. My fave sandwich is a pate (pheasant I think), with onion marmalade and green salad hoagie. I have also had the most amazing beef panini a couple of times from here too. The prices are excellent for the quality of ingredients. The food is made up fresh just before lunch, try it!!
