Theo’s Deli

Yep, One of the better deli’s at South Melbourne market.
That being said, you’re kinda spoilt for choice really as there are loads of deli’s
selling heaps of good stuff. The Olive bread here is pretty ace, especially when toasted.
They also have a great selection of great cheeses including stilton, and some of my favourites; Raclette, Gruyère and manchengo. Of course there are the other items here to match whether it be for picnicking, snacking, or entertaining purposes. Essentially you wont go wrong. It’s always very busy here, so it pays to be attentive as to what’s going on around you with other people and queuing and payments. It must be
very stressful to work here. If you are short on time or in a rush, probably best that you steer clear of this place as the general business around you, will probably set you off. Spare some time, slow down, breathe, relax, order correctly and do not snap at the server’s and those extra few minutes will pay off. You won’t be left feeling all flustered and scrambled.

Theo’s Deli is where I love to buy my meat in South Melbourne. This little deli has everything! Fresh cheese, olives, ham, bread and fresh meat of course, there is thinks like marinated chicken skewers, Italian Pancetta, Castlemaine Ham off the bone and some pretty good prices to match.
Walking into the South Melbourne Market you will be inundated with fresh fruit, veggies and meat, but I would definitely recommend Theo’s as my favourite for the best quality meat at the lowest price.
If you are looking to save even further try heading to the market at around 2pm — 3pm, right before the stalls close they often discount their produce rather heavily in an attempt to sell it rather than have to throw it away.
