Absolutely beautiful little gift wrapped box containing delicious chocolates. Lovely that you can choose the flavours you want, rather than being stuck with ones you don't like

The chocolates are really nice
The chocolates are really nice, but the postage for delivery to the Isle of Man which is part of the UK was to expensive it said free delivery if you spend over £40. I spent £41.75 and then got charged £12.95 for postage. So although the chocolates were excellent the cost to receive them with that hit on postage I will not be purchasing again. Will look for similar Belgium chocs, with free postage to Isle of Man.

Hi Jillyyvonne,
Thank you for your review and for shopping with us—we really appreciate it. We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed the chocolates.
We understand your frustration regarding the delivery cost to the Isle of Man. We use Royal Mail for our deliveries, and unfortunately some locations fall outside the standard free delivery areas. That said, we completely understand your point and will review these costs carefully. If there’s any way for us to offer reduced rates or discounts for the Isle of Man in the future, we will definitely do so.
We look at your other reviews and you mentioned other companies delivery cost also similar
Thank you again for your feedback—it really helps us improve.
Kind regards

Hugely disappointing

Reply from Leonidas Brighton
Dear Customer,
Thank you for your message, and I’m very sorry to hear about your disappointment regarding your Easter order.
We dispatched your order on the same day it was placed using a tracked Royal Mail service, and the tracking details were shared with you at the time of dispatch. According to the tracking information, the parcel has now been marked as delivered.
We completely understand how frustrating delays can be, especially for a time-sensitive order like Easter. While we ensure all orders are prepared and dispatched promptly, delivery timings are unfortunately outside of our control once the parcel is with the courier.
Once again, we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding.
Kind regards,
Leonidas Brighton

Great for special occasions
I buy Leonidas for special occasions and they never disappoint. On this occasion, my easter eggs arrived cracked due to the couriers handling - despite the 'fragile' stickers. They were quick to help with a replacement!

Leonidas has been one of my favourite luxury chocolates, for decades.
I can only purchase them online, as I am not near any of their stores.
The Royal Mail took six days to deliver a recent order and they weren't as fresh, as they usually are. But my most recent purchase, arrived in three days, so that was much better.
Quality chocolates, no complaints at all!

Thanks so much, Anthony! ⭐ We’re glad you found our service prompt and efficient. Your feedback means a lot to us.
Fantastic 5* Experience. Highly recommended.
Beautiful fresh chocolates delivered by Royal Mail in 24hrs.
Gentleman in the shop kept me informed on my order and offered alternatives.
Will be ordering from here all the time now after a run of particularly bad experiences with a Channel Island based stockist that I had used for years.
5* Service and they are based in my favourite place in the country. What's not to love!

The gold box containing the orange slices is too small and wont stay shut.
I have no complaint regarding the contents;
They were packed too tightly in a box which was not large enough

Dear Croft
Thank you for your feedback regarding the gold ballotin box and the orange slices.
Please note that our orange slices are made using real orange peel, and as with all natural ingredients, the size of each slice can vary. Because of this, it is not possible to guarantee identical sizes for every piece. However, when a product is sold by weight, we always ensure that the correct weight is provided, regardless of individual slice size.
Regarding the box, our packaging is designed to remain securely closed under normal conditions.
That said, we always value customer feedback and would be happy to review this further if you need Please feel free to contact our customer service team so we can assist you.
Kind regards,
