The Octupus

4.8(108 reviews)

About

The Octupus in Sardinia sits at Via Montgolfier, 32, 09028 Sestu CA, Italy, a deli counter in Sestu, a short run from Cagliari on the island's southern side. The shop trades from a numbered unit on Via Montgolfier, so drivers heading out of the Cagliari area can stop without leaving the main road network.

As a deli, The Octupus works with the counter format: cheese, cured meats, preserves and prepared items sold by weight and packed to take away. A 4.8 out of 5 average from 108 reviews places it among the better-reviewed delis in the Sestu area. Regulars from Cagliari and Sassari make the trip for the counter, and the shop draws custom from across the southern half of the island.

Opening hours run daily, and the shop keeps a set schedule through the week. Photographs of the counter and the shop front are on the listing. The website carries the full range and current opening times.

For a first visit, arrive knowing the counter is the point: order by weight, ask what is cut that day and take it away. Sardinian is spoken alongside Italian in these parts, so a few words of either helps at the counter. Summer here is hot and dry, with mild, wetter winters, and the patron-saint festas bring processions, band music and fireworks through the summer months. Cagliari is the nearest of the island's main towns, which makes Sestu an easy stop on a day out from the city.
