ABOUT THE DELI

Bundaberg's Inclusive Cafe

Think brunch favourites, crazy cob loaf creations, and gourmet meats & cheeses. We're a Bundaberg café serving up delicious, locally sourced dishes made with care (and a lot of flair).

​

You'll find us on Targo Street, at Bundaberg Airport, CQUniversity Bundaberg campus, and the Bundaberg Aquatic Centre.

 

So, what sets us apart?

​

We’re here to change what’s possible.

People with disabilities are too often overlooked when it comes to employment. They’re underestimated, boxed in, and left out of industries like hospitality where they absolutely belong.

​

That’s why The Deli was created in 2019 as part of IDSS HQE.

Every BLT, cheese platter, or takeaway coffee helps create real job opportunities for people with disabilities.

​

Not charity jobs. Real jobs.

​

Jobs where our staff are trained to industry standards, supported to build skills, grow confidence, and work in a team that sees their potential.

 

And the best part? Our staff love it. 

 

The smile you get when they hand over your lunch isn't forced. It's pride. It's purpose. It’s what happens when someone is given the chance to thrive.

 

Head Chef Ashton & Deli Manager Hayley lead with heart. They care deeply about food, but even more about people. And they'll always make space for someone willing to give it a go.

​

So when you visit The Deli, you're choosing more than great food. You're choosing inclusion. Opportunity. And a better future - one shift, one sandwich, one smile at a time. 

​

We'll always serve up goodness. 

Locally sourced. Cooked with care. Served with pride.

​

We hope to see you soon - at Targo Street, Bundaberg Airport, CQUniversity, and Aquatic Centre.

What Our Customers Say

"A HUGE thank you is going out to this amazing business. Being stuck in Victoria and not being able to see my Dad for Father's Day, The Deli were so helpful and friendly while helping me to arrange a fantastic platter to be sent out to him. They accommodated me with everything I asked for and even added a few drinks to be taken out on request. I am so grateful for their help and for being so amazingly friendly. I highly recommend these guys and will be definitely using them again."

The Deli was born from a love of great food, and a goal to create a more inclusive community. To give people with disabilities a chance to learn, work, earn, and be a part of something bigger.
