No updates no delivery just excuses

I paid for goods on Monday the website said express delivery, by Thursday my goods had not been shipped, so I contacted the company and was assured my goods would go out Thursday and I would get them Friday, Friday comes and my goods still havnt been shipped, I contact the company again and I'm just belt fed excuses oh yeah a label has been printed, we're seeing orders leave, and then the you should have your goods by Tuesday, in this day and age how is over 7 days express delivery?

Edit 1 order arrived Saturday, however it was deficient an item which again shows lack of attention to detail and a general lack of care for customers, phoned this morning and was told it would be sent for delivery we will wait and see how long this takes

Hi there, I'm just getting an update on your order. As you'll be aware, we have experienced some terrible delays and misinformation from our third party packing company. I'll try to get a resolution for you as soon as possible. In the meantime, please provide me with the information requested here. Thank you, Pam

Really poor service

Really poor service. Ordered the father’s day box. Arrived late. Items were missing, an incorrect item was included in the order and 2 items were unlabelled.
Contacted Sauce Shop and was told replacement items would be delivered. These never arrived. Contacted them again and was advised my order had been lost and replacement items would be sent for a second time plus some complimentary products. Still not received the ordered after 1-2weeks and they’ve stopped responded to emails.
Won’t be placing any future orders which is a shame as the sauces are good.

Hi there, I am so sorry about this. I have spoken to Kat on our team and she has assured me that your refund has been processed. Unfortunately we are still trying to get back to our normal level of service following a terrible mess up with our fulfillment partner over Father's Day. This isn't the experience we expect our lovely customers to have and I'm so sorry for any dissapointment caused over Father's Day and the hassle of you having to keep contacting us. Pam

Great tasting and so much better for you than top brands!!!

I really hope the Sauce shop get their delivery issues sorted soon. They have been so good at keeping us informed.

Their products are so tasty and so much better for you than the top brands me and all my family are hooked in.

Banging customer service

I purchased a Father’s Day hamper for my husband and due to recent challenges with distribution, the parcel never arrived. It might seem strange to give 5 stars given this situation but I am so impressed with the brand’s ownership of this issue, straight talking & proactive communication and clear desire to make things right. So refreshing and authentic. I will defo keep ordering and enjoying the products they sell. Thank you team sauce shop!

Fantastic customer service

When my order hadn’t arrived within 2 weeks I queried this with the company, they had already sent an email out by that point to all customers affected by delays explaining that there were some difficulties with orders due to a third party. Once I contacted them about my order I received a reply shortly after from Kat who was extremely apologetic and sent out my order promptly along with a few goodies to make up for the delay, my order was received about 4 days later and I’m delighted with it! I know Sauce Shop are getting some bad reviews just now due to delays but I’ve rated them highly today purely because of the empathetic and apologetic staff and the excellent customer service they gave once I reached out to them. They really seemed to be trying their best and I’d definitely order again

Great personal customer service!

I ordered a Father’s Day sauce hamper, which unexpectedly took ages to arrive, and wasn’t right when it did - so I was initially very disappointed. However, I contacted customer services and they were extremely responsive and apologetic. I was already aware there had been some issues with a new company they had out-sourced their packing and shipping to. They put the issue right and went above and beyond what I expected to rectify the mistake. I was really happy with their response and felt it said a lot about the ethos of their company. It restored my confidence in them and I’d be more than happy to order again. Plus the sauces are delicious!

Hello! Thank you so much for your lovely review. I've made sure to share it with the team to keep them going! It's been a rocky couple of weeks at Sauce Shop but I'm so glad to read the issues with your order were turned around and that you now get to enjoy your sauces! Thank you again, Pam.

10/10 for sauces and service

I received an order very recently and I must say I’m absolutely blown away by these sauces! We have tried most of the set (17) already and using daily on salads and chicken you name it. Was keen to source products that were more natural and couldn’t be more impressed!! So glad I found you!

Also must say excellent communication and service from the customer service team recently. 10/10

A lush sauce for every meal!

Beautiful sauces, perfect if you like plenty of flavour and a bit of heat. We are slowly working our way through the selection on offer, with repeat orders on our favourites.
Recently I did have a small issue with delivery. I phoned customer service and spoke to a lovely representative who listened was polite and helpful. My order was investigated and the issue resolved very quickly. I will definitely continue to order from the sauce shop!

Good sauce but something has clearly gone wrong. Had an apology email 8 days ago fair enough but then absolutely nothing else since. Don’t have a clue if my order is coming, being processed or just lost.

*Edit

Thought all this had been sorted and the answer seemed to be good, week after the delivery was due it’s still not delivered and no reply through email. 6 weeks to have some sauce delivered, madness.

Hi Danny, it's Pam (Sauce Shop co-founder), I am so sorry about this. I have looked into what's happened to your order and it seems our fulfulment company didn't actually ship it, despite telling us they had. One of my team has been in touch today and organised for your order to be sent out immediately. Apologies once again. Pam

Order didn’t arrive but refund is on its way…

I would have really liked to try these sauces but unfortunately the order didn’t arrive in the time specified. I had ordered in good time for Fathers Day on 1 June but there was a delay. After I had chased I was told it would definitely arrive for Father’s Day but it did not. Package was then marked as being sent but it was not. I understand there are issues with their new delivery provider which isn’t their fault but it is a massive let down. Didn’t have time to get an alternative Father’s Day present as I didn’t know that it definitely wasn’t going to arrive until the day before Father’s Day. But do feel misled as I was reassured that it would arrive in time, but it didn’t.
As soon as I had asked for a refund this was issued, just waiting for it to come through now, so that’s good.
I think this company had really good reviews prior to this so I hope that they are now changing their delivery company before they harm their brand.
I would like to try these sauces one day but I don’t think I would be placing an order just now.

Hi Louise, it's Pam (Sauce Shop co-founder). I am so sorry about your experience with my company. We made a huge mistake chosing to outsource our fulfilment at such a busy time and our choice of partner also turned out to be terrible. A huge learning experience for us as a business and a massive embarrassment to me personally. The packing company we have been working with constantly promised our team that orders were being sent when they weren't. This was only discovered when we sent some of our team over to see what was going on. That being said, it doesn't make up for the many spoilt Father's Days we have caused and I am very sorry about yours. I am glad to see you have been issued with a refund and hope at some point you try our sauces again. After 10 years of running Sauce Shop, this is not the service I expect for our valued customers. Thank you, Pam

Not received my order after over 3 weeks. They keep saying it’s been sent next day but are lying. Awful customer service. I’ve reported them to my bank for theft

Hi Jenna, it's Pam (Co-founder of Sauce Shop). I am very sorry about your experience with my company. I can see you have raised a chargeback against us via the bank, which we will accept and your money will be returned to you from the bank. I can also see that a replacement box is being sent and you should receive the goods in the next week. We chose to outsource our parcel fulfulment to a local company a few weeks ago, which has gone terribly and in hindsight was awful timing around Father's Day. Unfortunately my small team did their best but were armed with misinformation from the packing partner who consistently promised us orders were being sent when they weren't. After 11 years of delighting customers with our sauces I am so sad to read these reviews. Apologies once again. I am not sure how long your bank will take to return your money, as it is not us issuing the refund. But hopefully you will at least receive the rest of your order soon. Thank you, Pam

SO disappointed with sauce shop

SO disappointed with sauce shop. Ordered two gifts sets 10 days before Father’s Day, they guaranteed they would arrive by the date. By the Tuesday they still had not arrived so I again emailed and they guaranteed they would be there. Unfortunately on the Saturday afternoon I got an email to say they was unlikely to arrive and they had supply problems. I fully appreciate things happen but to guarantee twice they would be there stopped me getting our dads anything else. I then had to wait for a response on the Tuesday in which they told me my products were lost and asked if I wanted to reorder which I did as my dad still hadn’t had a present to be told they were still unsure when these would be delivered so I gave up and asked for a refund. I was out of pocket for two and a half weeks. Certainly will not be using them again.

Hi Abby, it's Pam (Sauce Shop Co-founder). I am so sorry about your experience with my company. As you will have read, we opted to outsource our fulfilment to another company to help with increasing demand and unfortunately, it has backfired massively. Our small team have been consistently passed incorrect information with the packing company promising that orders were being sent when they weren't. This has resulted in us letting a lot of customers down and ruining a lot of Father's Days, which hits particularly hard as we have small children! I am sorry you were one of those that was let down. I can see your refund has been issued but I do understand how frustrating this whole thing has been for you and others. I hope at some point you will shop with us again, but completely understand your complaints. I can assure you, this is not the service James and I expect our customers to receive. Pam

Very poor experience

Ordered on the 9th of June. Was contacted to say that they didn't have everything I ordered, so could I choose something else. Order wasn't delivered until the 16th of June. It was very poorly packaged - I can't believe everything made it without smashing. To top it all off I got a message to say that my order has been delivered, but it was not at my house! I finally matched the delivery picture to a neighbour's garage and found the box on the floor outside.

Hi Jamie, it's Pam (Sauce Shop Co-founder). I am so sorry about this. We have messed up here and with a lot of orders over the past couple of weeks. This isn't the service we expect to deliver and I am very ashamed. I believe I can see some conversations with you on our system, so I will ask one of our team to reach out to you with a gesture of good will. Apologies again for the multiple issues with your order.

Best sauces I ever had!

Best sauces I ever had!
I started ordering a few months ago and the sauces are absolutely amazing. So much so I started a subscription. My favourite is the Honey Sriracha, delicious with anything! The cooking sauces are very convenient too. I'd definitely recommend some of the bundles as they allow you to taste a variety of their range. And I've spotted them on my local Tesco too. Will never go back to other brands!

Worst service

I placed my order and also paid on 31/05/2025
and I am still awaiting delivery, so much for the advertised 48 hours.
Customer service is practically non existent and give father's day as an excuse. God help the father's who didn't get a present.
The furthest my order has got is a label that was printed on 12th June. I guess I have to wait a few more weeks before someone sticks it on my parcel.
Never will I order from sauce shop again.
If you need any sauce I recommend going to a supermarket

Hi Daniel, this is Pam (Sauce Shop Co-founder). I have asked one of our team to issue you with a full refund. I am so sorry for the huge delay. We experienced massive demand this Father's Day whilst also moving our fulfilment operation to a partner who could not keep up with demand. We are getting back on track now, so you should receive your order. Please just keep it. Your refund should be with you shortly. Apologies again. Pam
