If you find yourself in the charming coastal town of Cullen, Buckie, a visit to The Yellow Deli is an absolute must. Nestled at 19 Grant St, this delightful cafe is more than just a place to grab a bite; it’s a warm and inviting haven that combines delicious food with a cozy atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely lunch or a quick coffee break.

The interior is beautifully decorated with a cheerful yellow theme and wooden accents, creating a homey vibe that welcomes all. Though the seating is limited, every corner of The Yellow Deli radiates charm and friendliness, making it an ideal spot to sit back and savor your meal.

When it comes to the menu, prepare to be impressed by the array of options. Customers rave about the Glen and Caprese ciabattas, praised for their fresh and vibrant flavors. The star of the show, however, might just be the "Deli Skink"—a exquisite blend of chorizo and paprika that has received accolades for being irresistibly delicious.

Pair your meal with a refreshing Green Machine smoothie or a comforting cup of expertly brewed coffee, each praised for their quality and taste. The delightful options don’t stop there; from savory salmon bagels to a luxurious pistachio milkshake, there's something to please every palate. Since many customers have given two thumbs up to the simplicity and quality of the baked goods, you simply can't miss trying the cakes and sausage rolls as well.

But don’t just take our word for it; customer experiences speak volumes. James Donn mentions how The Yellow Deli has become a must-visit whenever he’s back in town, and his recommendation of the Deli Skink draws attention to its unmatched flavors. Sonia Patrick echoes this sentiment, recounting her fantastic lunch complemented by excellent service, while Michelle Slater appreciates the family-friendly atmosphere and delicious smoothies her kids can't get enough of.

We came in for lunch and were blown away by the Glen and Caprese ciabattas, very fresh and tasty! The real winner though was the "Deli Skink" with chorizo and paprika through it which was unbelievably good. I make sure to stop in by every time I'm home, so I'll slowly but surely work my way round the whole menu! Lovely service as always, will be back

They do a very nice coffee and I recommend trying one of their sausage rolls. You can't eat inside but it's very small. The staff are very good

Lovely coffee and cake. Service was friendly and efficient. We sat in, love the wood theme. Makes me sound old, but the cakes were an ideal size and so fresh and tasty. I don't like huge portions when I go out for coffee. Savoury menu looked great too, we'll be back

We visited at the weekend for drinks, it was busy but we were served promptly and the staff were friendly and well organised. My kids really liked their smoothies and I had a nice coffee and cake. Love the yellow theme and the deli has a really nice, welcoming feel to it. A great addition to the area and we’ll be back soon to sample the ciabattas as they looked really good.

Beautiful interior and a warm and welcoming atmosphere matches the amazing and colourful food on offer. We stopped by 3 times OK our visit to Cullen. Coffee is excellent, the pistachio milkshake was a massive hit in our household also! We sampled the salmon bagels and the cullen skink and the children's box was also brilliant for our daughter. The deli has loads of local products from a wide variety of vendors, we bought the fried egg crisps and the lime curd! Yum. We will definitely be back. A must visit for when you are in this lovely part of Scotland!!

Woweee this was a treat! We had some delicious food and the smoothie was fab! Totally recommend the following.. The B.F.G Bagel : roasted beetroot, jammy figs, whipped goats cheese and walnuts The Bacon, Brie & Beer Ciabatta : with Black Isle Scotch Ale Chutney Tropical Smoothie : Mango, pineapple, papaya and orange Aylii and her team are doing a fab job and it was so busy today! It is definitely worth a little trip to Cullen to check these guys out. Nice to see @gut_feelings_kombucha on tap too! We are delighted to see another local business popping up

We absolutely love our new local wee deli! Everything we've tried (every smoothie bar one so far!) both food and drink has been delicious and very reasonably priced considering the high quality ingredients and portion sizes. The place is beautifully decorated and the service is always warm and welcoming. Cannot fathom why anyone would give this place a 1 star, clearly they have something stuck up their behind because my wee boys think this is such a 5 star they've recreated a mini yellow deli at home!
