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.

Extremely expensive shipping and even…

Extremely expensive shipping and even more expensive custom fees to release the package at destination. Cost more than the actual cost if chocolates!

Reply from British Corner Shop

Hi Sameera,

Thank you for your review, and we are sorry to hear that the overall cost of your order was not what you were anticipating.

We do want to clarify that British Corner Shop clearly displays all shipping costs at checkout prior to an order being placed, so customers are fully informed of these charges before confirming their purchase. We are transparent about these costs and would never seek to surprise our customers with hidden fees.

Regarding customs duties and import fees, these are entirely outside of our control and are levied by the destination country's customs authorities. These charges vary by country and are the responsibility of the recipient. We do clearly outline this at checkout so that customers are aware that additional duties and fees may apply upon delivery depending on their location.

We understand that the combination of shipping and customs costs can sometimes feel significant, particularly for smaller orders, and we would always encourage customers to consider this when placing orders to ensure it represents good value for them.

Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at customersuccess@britishcornershop.co.uk and we will be happy to help.

I am an American Brit and I absolutely…

I am an American Brit and I absolutely love Warburtons Bread. When I go to England every year I try and put a few loaves in my luggage to take back to the States. Unfortunately, I ordered 3 loves of their white bread recently, along with M&S tea. The tea is fine but when I opened the loaf of bread (the first loaf) the bread had black mold on the edges. I threw the entire loaf out. I am so disappointed because I have placed the other 2 loves in the freezer and God only knows if that bread is all molded as well. Extremely disappointed in this order which cost me allot of money for 3 loves of bread. Chris Lindsay RN in Parrish Florida

Cost effective way to get UK grocery items

I landed on this vendor from a Google search. I was trying to find a cost effective way to bring some fresh Warburtons bread into the US to try. After I saw the prices and shipping were very reasonable I ended up ordering a whole box of UK items to try. It was very well packed and promptly shipped to the US. The bread still had 5 days left on it's best by date and shipping was less than expected. I'll be shopping here again. If anyone is wondering, Warburtons bread makes a fantastic toasted sandwich.

So exciting to open a big box of goodies from British Corner Shop! Excellently packed, not one biscuit was broken.

I am very happy with the service, punctuality and quality. Thank you.
