Great experience
Our visit to the store was great. We had done a fair bit of research but our assistant (Lesley) was really helpful in guiding us in our final choice.
A very positive experience.

Great actual shop, easy online
An easy online order that was underpinned by a great service at the team at the Edinburgh shop. They were really helpful and had some great suggestions. I would not have bought the chair if I had not been able to visit a showroom first.

Staff are always friendly and welcoming and conduct themselves in a professional manner. The store is bright and spacious and well signed, is easy to get to and there's plenty of free parking outside the door. The furniture has that " designer" look, is comfortable to sit in, and is hand made.

Going to the Loaf store was the best option to try all their furniture in display and really choose the best option for myself, the staff was attentive but not crawdy, definitely gave us space to try all the sofas and chairs and answer all our questions later. Super friendly and determined to help, the in store feel of buying furniture is unbeatable.

Gorgeous couch! 🛋️
The team at the shack made the buying experience very enjoyable by being friendly (but not overbearing) and offering complimentary munchies such as Tunnocks teacakes and bottled water! Being able to take fabric swatches home along with a tape measure was helpful too.
The sofa arrived far earlier than anticipated (I ordered mid December and got it before the end of January) and I am delighted with my purchase! The delivery guys were very helpful and set it up without a fuss.
If you’re looking for a well made, super comfy couch, I highly recommend Loaf!

We had visited the store twice before as well as your Battersea store. We knew what we wanted. Alisha sussed this quickly and gave us space. No hard sell but useful information imparted. Made the process enjoyable.

Excellent service
Excellent service
All of the staff were extremely friendly, humorous and helpful, particularly given the attention they gave our dog (who was with us)! They clearly knew the products and were focused on helping us find just the right product to meet our needs.
It was a little disappointing that the attitude towards us dropped significantly as soon as we'd concluded our purchase, but not such that it impacted greatly on the experience.

Hi Malcolm,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We’re really pleased to hear you felt so well looked after during your visit, especially that our team (and your dog!) felt welcome, and that we were able to help you find the right product for your needs. That said, we’re genuinely sorry to hear that the experience felt less warm after your purchase was completed. That’s not the level of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you flagging it.
Your comments have been shared with the team so we can learn from them, and we hope to have the chance to welcome you back for an even better experience in the future.
Warmest Regards,
Paris
