Book NowAbout New Farm Deli
Brisbane’s long-standing Italian heavyweight packs floor-to-ceiling shelves of imported pantry staples directly around a clattering cafe dining room. Tables sit elbow to elbow under shelves loaded with olive oils, wheels of cheese, and cured meats—a bustling salumeria setup where hearty morning plates roll right into afternoon wine. Counter regulars go for the Sorrento panini with prosciutto, while pasta devotees back the rich carbonara and classic lasagna Bolognese. The room hums at a loud, fast clip, and snagging an indoor or patio perch takes patience during peak weekend hours. The reward comes down to honest cooking, espresso pulls, and a slice of tiramisu layered with espresso-soaked savoiardi and mascarpone.
- Bustling Salumeria Floor: A bustling dining space and covered patio framed by floor-to-ceiling shelves of imported cheeses, cured meats, and pantry staples.
- Classic Italian Plates: Hearty, cooked-to-order classics like rich carbonara, duck ragù, and traditional lasagna Bolognese.
