Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 1,126 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the exceptionally wide selection of hard-to-find British goods, the user-friendly website navigation, and the remarkably fast delivery times to international destinations. Consumers note that orders are typically carefully wrapped and protected, ensuring everything arrives in excellent and fresh condition ready to be enjoyed. However, some customers also noted that certain delicate items like chocolates occasionally melted during warm weather transit or arrived slightly damaged. Some people were dissatisfied with high international shipping costs, unexpected handling charges, and additional customs fees that made purchases considerably more expensive.

The last order got lost and by the time…

The last order got lost and by the time i got it the bread was out of date, and the crumpets even in the freezer when thawed it went mouldy same day sadly we had to chuck that out, this order maybe the same as it was dispatched 4 days ok ( as long as the bread lasts for) and it’s still
not been delivered, it would really good if they maybe kept these semi frozen and popped in a freezer bag type way that others do, i know it will defrost quickly but even and added extra day or two would be very handy

A wonderful experience but be aware of the Duty!

The order was great and totally as expected.
My problem is out of your hands but the customs duty is sad and makes the whole operation a little over the top with regards to expense. Something I'll have to consider if and when I order again.
Thanks so much for the rest of the experience.

We never received the products

We never received the products. The ordering process seemed very quick but the items never arrived and I am currently working with the customer service to resolve.

Hobnob delivery to New Zealand!

My daughter has just received her parcel of biscuits and chocolate in NZ and is over the moon! Yes, it's not the cheapest way of sending a food parcel but it's convenient and the constant notifications from DHL were great.

Shipping is very fast and everything…

Shipping is very fast and everything being properly taken care from custom to delivery. It also offers varieties of goods which is great to make one stop shopping. Prices are reasonable, the only downside in my case is one bag of crisps was broken (probably squeezed during the transportation), hope packing can be better next time.
