Ever a Joy
November 14, 2024
Updated review

Excellent as always, though I did not know that the 15% off sale would end as soon as it did (which is my own fault for not searching out that answer, not the fault of English Tea Store). I sincerely hope that English Tea Store continues to preserve the wonderful aspects of the British Isles' culture, as expressed through their food and tea.

A Surprising Blessing
December 26, 2023
Previous review

Truly, a charming online shop. I did not think that I would find such a welcome alternative to Amazon in such short time before Christmas (with speedy delivery options, no less). It is difficult to find the authentic, European versions of many different goods from the British Isles, which makes this site a very enjoyable and surprising blessing.

For now...

Pax et Bonum!

I though I was to get free shipping through 3/19/25 but this did not show up at the time of the order. I could not find any codes or other ways to make my final order show no shipping charge.

Christmas Pudding
December 28, 2024

It's a gift that hasn't been opened yet, but it came quickly. I'm still going to make a lemon curd sauce for it and surprise my husband for Christmas. It was also wrapped wonderfully, so that the pudding wasn't damaged.

Tea

I cannot rate the tea as it is a gift so I don't know the quality. However, I can tell you I was pleased with the ease of ordering. Also, the items arrived as described and in a timely manner. Thank you.

Packing could have been better
December 22, 2024
Updated review

Overall the experience was very good one of the 4 jars of marmalade I ordered was smashed (not just broken but completely shattered)let customer service know and they took care of it quickly so it turned out ok. In future I hope they think wrap multiple glass jars separately though.

Shipping expense to meet the Birthday date is higher than expected to spend. Hoping the Gift package is worth it. Thanking you in advance for my first time purchase of your products.

THAT's what a web order should be like
December 24, 2024

Ordered. Payed, received very fast. Received the exact ordered item. Fresh and well packed. WHAT ELSE can one hope for. This is quite unusual: One in three or four web orders end in lies, fraud,
Inaccuracies, and disappearance of the merchant. What has this world come to? I will SURELY repeat orders from the English Gea Store. Thank you.

Great Service!
January 6, 2025

I ordered a case of 6 Bonne Mamon fig preserves that arrived with 4 of them broken. All I had to do was give the English Tea Store a phone call and George sent out replacements in a flash! I will certainly be doing more business with this establishment and very highly recommend the English Tea Store!

Excellent quality, variety and service
March 2, 2025

I have subscribed to the monthly tea variety pack for over three years, a Xmas present for my girlfriend. She loves the variety of samples, the ease we can switch from tea bags to loose tea. The extra treat each month is great, biscuits, chocolate or flavored honey sticks. Billing and shipping has never been a problem, support is first rate.

This last holiday season when I asked if there was anything special she'd like, she asked "you ARE renewing the tea again, right?".

Couldn't use the "search" feature. Everything else was great, especially the recommendations of similar items.

Part 2 after delivery.
Not your company's fault but the package was wandering around my location for almost a week. So from order to delivery took two weeks. Of course it was not Emergency tea.

The Pumpkin tea, I bought it for myself, was excellent!
