About

How we got our start

Welcome to Rainbow Deli! I’m Essi, and along with my brother Jav, we started this journey in 2015 with a simple dream: to bring the rich flavours of our Italian heritage and blend them with the classic tastes of English cuisine right here in Seacroft, Leeds.

Growing up, Jav and I were surrounded by the aromas and flavours of traditional Italian cooking. We wanted to share these beloved recipes with our community, so we decided to combine them with English culinary classics to create something truly special.

Our Grilled Baguette Melts, for example, quickly became a favourite among our customers, perfectly embodying this fusion of flavours.
