Extended Outdoor Seating at Amaretto Delicatessen

Amaretto Shop Front

Come and eat between the arches: from Monday 12th April, 2021

Here at Amaretto Deli, we’re pleased to say that we’ve secured a licence from Norwich City Council to extend our temporary outdoor seating area, so you’ll be able to sit between the arched buttresses of St Andrew’s Hall, directly opposite the deli. The licence gives us eight more seats and two tables beside the beautiful flint walls. This is in addition to the seating area outside the shop, and will be open from Monday 12th April, in line with lockdown rules.

When we placed small tables outside the deli last year, they proved very popular. In light of the ongoing pandemic, Fabrizio put in an application for extra outdoor seating last year, and was delighted when it was accepted.

We will share the space with St Andrew’s Hall, vacating it whenever it is needed for their events. Fab is very grateful to both Norwich City Council, and St Andrew’s Hall for all their help with all this. The space will allow more of you to make the most of good weather, and to enjoy eating together in a beautiful setting.

Details of all our daily specials are available on social media: @AmarettoDeli on Twitter and Facebook.

See you soon!

Student discounts – up to 25% off

Aubergine Parmigiana

Hungry? We serve award-winning home cooked food and have some exclusive student discounts for you.

Amaretto Deli has long had a great relationship with students, particularly those from NUA (Norwich University of the Arts) which is located just down the road from us on St Georges Street.

This year, we’ve crafted three special lunchtime discounts for students. If you’re new to Norwich and haven’t tried our food before, or whether you know us well, if you’re in full time education and can prove it with a card or app, then these offers apply to you:

Student discounts:

Any pizza slice: £2 (20% off full price)

Any panini: £3 (over 25% off full price)

Any ready meal £4.50 (10% off full price)

We also offer a loyalty cards for hot drinks: buy nine hot drinks and your tenth is free.

Our panini are made fresh each morning, using locally sourced bread including focaccia, baguette and more. Our cod goujon is justly famous, and the tuna baguette a daily favourite. The pizza is thin crust, made in the pizza oven room just beyound the til, and served until about 4pm. There are a variety of pizza toppings, which change daily and if you have a particular favourite we will make a new pizza for you as you wait, if possible. Our hot and cold meals also vary daily and include vegan food, vegetarian food, salads, hot dishes like lasagna, pasta and parmigiana, all made fresh in our kitchen each morning.

Find out more about our pizza, hot and cold meals and sandwiches here. You can also keep up with our daily specials on Facebook and Twitter, or join us on Instagram (@AmarettoDeli).

See you before too long!

Hungry? Our takeaway sushi lunch box is available every Friday

takeaway sushi lunch box

In partnership with our friends at Shiki, an independent Japanese restaurant in Tombland, Norwich, we offer a delicious and filling takeaway sushi lunch every Friday alongside our other specials; all available at Amaretto Deli, 16 St Georges Street.

The sushi include salmon, tuna and delicious raw vegetables; just take your pick of your preferred box. Consisting of a healthy portion of your favourite filling surrounded by seaweed and sushi rice, the sushi is served complete with ginger, fresh wasabi, soy sauce and of course chop-sticks.

Due to the fact that the food isn’t cooked and served within minutes, the fish is cooked; so this is a different kind of experience to fresh sashimi, the sushi that consists of raw fish, but just as delicious. (It is still officially sushi – as that term actually refers to the kind of sour rice used in this kind of food, not the fish…)

Shiki is a fantastic restaurant, long beloved of foodies in Norwich, and anyone who enjoys well-made, authentic Japanese food. If you’re ever looking for a good meal, we recommend it, especially their elegant Bento boxes, or Tuesday night all you can eat buffets: perfect for a celebratory treat. Their plum wine is a great accompaniment; don’t miss out on that. All the food is beautifully served, and looks as good as it tastes. We eat there for every staff Christmas meal, and always have a brilliant time.

If you’re interested in the takeaway sushi box, please do come and see us at Amaretto Deli, 16 St Georges Street, NR1 3BA any Friday afternoon. If you’re feeling particularly keen do come close to 12.30pm, as this sushi lunch does often sell fast.

Sushi is just one of our lunches, we offer three daily specials and soups as well as sandwiches, pizza and snacks through-out the week; find out more on our take-away page.

Have a great weekend.
