The Berrisons Story

Berrisons Delicatessen is the passion project of Hove locals Lisa and Craig Bell, who bring their expertise and love for food into this thoughtfully curated space. Lisa’s experience in the food industry and Craig’s background in logistics form the foundation of a deli that’s deeply rooted in community and sustainability.
