Chatsworth Deli is, or it was, a deli that has been transformed into a florist by the overwhelming power of the flower section of the business; nowadays, the deli is reduced to a few fridges with convenience items located at the bottom end of the shop.
Chatsworth Deli has all sort of flowers and myriad possible flower colours and textures: big bunches, small bunches, individual flowers, seasonal flowers, cultivated flowers, Australian native flowers, arranged boxes, and anything to complement your bunches like balloons, cards, and ribbons.
Prices oscillate between cheap and extremely affordable, which explains why the place is thriving on any given weekday, no need of public holiday or feast on sight. This is not the place where you would order your wedding bouquet or get a bunch for Her Majesty or arrangements for the poshest of hotels, but it will serve you well for the rest.
The guys working here are matter of fact, but very fast at serving you, but not especially friendly, the truth be told. They wrap the bunches extremely well and you get them home in perfect condition even after having a walk.
Some of the old bunches are sold cheaper than the fresh, but I've found that they could be even cheaper due to the state of some of the flowers and leaves.
I pass by this "Deli" frequently, and the place is so gorgeous that it always turns my happy-o-meter up. I always stop, even if I don't buy anything, just to get all that beauty sink. Chatsworth Deli and its vastness of flowers makes you feel good without having to call your best friend or your psychoanalyst, and makes you smile without need of any joke. Chatsworth Deli is a micro-fairyland for Mount-Lawlyans and Highgatians - the poor, the hypster, the posh and the distracted passer-by. Chatsworth Deli is deli-ghtul!
