O’Deli Cafe Otley

Inside O’Deli Cafe Otley

O’Deli Cafe Otley is a compact, welcoming spot nestled in the heart of Otley’s market area, known for catering especially well to those looking for gluten-free options. The cafe keeps a friendly, unpretentious atmosphere that suits locals popping in for a mid-morning coffee or a light lunch. Seating inside is limited, but on mild days, the outdoor tables offer a pleasant way to enjoy the bustle of the town center.

The menu leans into hearty, approachable café fare with a strong focus on accommodating gluten-free needs without sacrificing variety or flavour. Expect a good range of sandwiches—from Parma ham and chorizo to vegan beetroot options—along with classics like bacon or sausage sandwiches. Breakfast options like granola bowls bring something lighter to the table, and the cake selection stands out, particularly the lemon drizzle and chocolate brownie, all available gluten-free, which allows those with dietary restrictions to truly enjoy their visit.

Visitors to O’Deli tend to appreciate the careful attention given to food allergies, making it a comfortable choice for families or groups with mixed dietary requirements. The staff’s friendly and attentive approach enhances the welcoming vibe, whether you’re settling in for a relaxed coffee or grabbing a casual lunch.

It’s a spot that works well for a weekday coffee break or a weekend catch-up, with drinks such as various teas and indulgent hot chocolates complementing the food. The tea servings in charming pots add a touch of ritual to the experience, encouraging guests to linger. Busy mornings can mean a cozy but somewhat tight interior, so if you’re visiting with mobility aids, allowing a little extra time or choosing outdoor seating might be easier.

Overall, O’Deli fits neatly into Otley’s friendly market town rhythm—bringing local charm together with practical, thoughtful food choices that make it a reliable stop if you’re after quality coffee, gluten-free bakery treats, or a quick, satisfying sandwich.

What a cute little cafe this is! The food is incredible, the staff are friendly, the cafe is set in the prettiest little town. After a 4 hour round trip to visit this cafe & a restaurant in Leeds, it's safe to say it definitely didn't disappoint and we will do it again quite happily. Me and my coeliac daughter are very, very happy x

Amazing, delicious food; Fantastic quality, great quantity for price, wonderful place to eat especially for those with allergies. I hope another location opens closer to where I live soon. Couldn't get pictures of my own food because i ate it too quick. The care taken for those with allergies is also phenomenal. Can be somewhat inaccessible for those with mobility aids, especially wider ones, but the staff takes care to work with what's available to make things easier - or at least they did with me while I had my rollator. Lovely place. Mind the beam above the counter if you're 5'7 or above though lol

After seeing this very busy cafe a few weeks ago, we said we would pop on on our next visit to Otley. We weren't disappointed, two lovely bacon sandwiches, a slice of lemon drizzle cake, and teas for two (in fantastic tea pots, my wife wants one ). Great value, friendly and helpful staff. Only a few inside seats, with outside seating also, no matter where you sit, it's worth it.

What a wonderful find for gluten free people who want choice! Everything on the menu can be made gluten free, and the menu is so varied and diverse, there was so much to choose from. The cake selection was unreal, and again, everything gluten free. The seating space inside is small, but there was outside seating which was lovely in this autumnal weather. Lovely staff members too! Absolutely returning

Excellent Gluten free cakes. Big choice of delicious cakes also sausage rolls & savoury food. Really recommend if you are in the area. Limited in door seating.

A gorgeous small cafe, but amazing gluten free food. Would be so worth the wait if the indoor cafe was full. But if dry, remember your big coat and sit outside is our thought. Excellent food, amazing portion size. So nice to have choice and no worries.
