Delilah Nottingham is an aladins cave for any foodie. 3 wishes would never be enough to sample the gastronomic delights it holds, but at least it would be a good start...... wondrous cheeses, sublime meats, awesome olives. Well that is wish no 1 gone! Good Luck Delilah

The Wotton Farm Shop in Wotton - under -Edge is a family run enterprise.They grow, rear and produce an enormous range of fresh produce providing their customers with an incredible range of home made 'ready -meals' (better than you could cook for yourself !) and a vast range of superb items. this is the place to go for the real provenance of 5* food products - or as some customers say - ' this is the sort of Super (food )market that should be available to everyone. Please check it out it is unassuming but the sheer effort being put in by all involved deserves the recognition of this award.

The No 8 Deli, in West Bridgford, Nottingham definitely fits the bill of Deli of the Year! No 8 is an independent Deli that serves superb food for extremely reasonable prices. There is a large selection of meats, cheeses and other vegetarian options on offer and you have the option of four types of bread. Unlike many Deli's, you also have the option to either eat in or take away. There is a fantastic selection drinks on offer - both alcoholic and non-alcoholic - with other independent food products. There is a covered outside eating area that makes for chilled out relaxing in the summer months. What makes it so fantastic for the two of us, is that while my partner Michelle was pregnant, it was so good to make up her own sandwiches to match the cravings!

The Larder delicatessen in Ripponden West, Yorkshire has the most delicious food made fresh daily that people are lining up down the street for it, literally. But the best thing about that is it's worth the wait. Can't wait for new menu.
