I would not do business with this company. They have the worst return policy of any company that I have ever done business wit. Be warned and take your business elsewhere.
Purchased some shoes as a Xmas gift for someone 12/17. Asked for an RMA return to exchange for a slight shoe size modification THREE days after Xmas - needed the shoe a half size smaller. THEY REFUSED TO EXCHANGE THEM! Who does that! You cannot stay in business if you refuse to help people get what they want AND keep their money when they get something they do not want. You should not sell clothing of ANY kind if you refuse to accommodate sizing adjustments after the sale. These people are ridiculous! Buyer beware!
Thank you for the feedback and we are very sorry the size didn't work. We are a wholesaler geared towards bulk ordering from businesses and pride ourselves in our low pricing. However, in order to maintain this low pricing, we don't have an exchange process. In the event of a standard return, the item would need to be sent back, and a restocking fee is deducted from the return credit for the added service of processing an item back into stock. If we did not have a restocking fee our prices would need to be higher in order to absorb the added cost. We certainly understand your return situation wasn't ideal, but we hope that our low prices will make it worth trying us again in the future. If there are any questions about an item that we sell, we are more than happy to answer them so that a return can be avoided. We can be reached at help@webstaurantstore.com.
I bought 3 item 30 years ago. Just received 2.

I feel obliged to pass the case on to a lawyer
Be careful with this company
Thank you for your review, Lyliane. I am sorry to hear that one of the items that you had ordered has not delivered! We are happy to look into this for you, but I am unable to locate the order without your order number, email address or information used to place your order but if the Vollrath item is still missing, please reach out to us at Help@WebstaurantStore.com and put it to the attention of Emily A.
I purchased a pizza oven, however, it never worked! It was defective from the beginning. It never cooked my pizza. It claims it would go up to 575, and never did. There was a problem with the top and bottom elements, it just would not get hot enough to cook my pizza. I'm not referring to a frozen pizza either. I went on the website in hopes of getting a return label to send it back, but they would not allow me a return label. I chatted with customer service, and they did not send me a label either. They were trying to assess the problem, and was my concern legitimate. My concern is real especially since I paid a great deal for the pizza oven. I feel as though the store's efforts are to make as much money as possible, even if it means evading a customer so as not to render a refund. I don't know what to do. There is no customer service number to call, only chat, and it is very insufficient. They do not resolve your problem! The fact that there is not a customer service line you can call in regard to an order especially if you have problems, should say a- lot. To a GREAT extent this is scamming the consumer out of their hard earned money. You have not responded to me, when I needed a return label, it was not supplied, and the chat never chatted back in respect of my order

Thank you for your review, Donna! I am sorry to hear that your pizza oven is not working properly. For anything that may be defective, we would refer you to the warranty of the product. All warranties are through the manufacturer, as WebstaurantStore does not hold any warranties. Our Customer Solutions team will typically start by trying to get some information about the problem to see how we can assist you. We may also provide you with the manufacturer contact information so that you can reach out to them directly to get the issue resolved under warranty. If this is still an ongoing issue, please reach out to help@webstaurantstore.com and we will be happy to assist!
I had heard of people having issues with this company before I ordered one case of Amoroso rolls to see if what I heard was true. Unfortunately, what I heard is true. On Sunday, November 29,2020 I ordered one case instead of of the 5 my business needed.
I chatted everyday for 4 days and each chat the different reps assured me that my order was being loaded on the truck. The conversation dialogue was almost verbatim of the previous conversation. Like they were reading from a script.
However, I would log into my account every few hours only to find the order was still in "Processing."
I had taken screenshots of each chat after finishing explaining that I would post them everywhere possible. What turned out to be my final chat last evening, December 3,2021 I asked the rep. Kelsey to please cancel my order. She replied that by saying, "we don't cancel orders here"
This morning December 4,2021 I woke up at 6:30 and immediately checked my account to find my order had shipped via FedEx minutes before.
I will never return to this business again. I suggest you to stay 100% clear.
Thank you for your review, Rich. While I could not locate your order with the information provided, I am sorry to hear that you did not have a good experience and that your order was not able to be canceled. Registered customers are able to cancel their orders on their own within the first 15 minutes of the order being placed. If an order is too far along in the processing stage and is being packaged and loaded onto the truck, we are not able to cancel that order. If you have any questions about this process, please let us know.
I run a youth baseball league and have tried Webstaurant twice for different products. The first time I had to cancel the order after two weeks of fighting with them back and forth about a product that was never delivered as promised. Second time I am having the same problem and I am about to cancel my order again. NEVER USE THIS STORE, THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE CUSTOMERS AND THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS ARE RUDE!
All they wanna do is send you a 3rd party company that fixes your equipment. Takes weeks for them to come. Then all of a sudden it's out of warranty... they are the worst buy elsewhere
Thank you for your review, Dave. When an item is defective or there is an issue with its workmanship, the resolution will be provided through the item’s warranty, which is listed on the item’s page. When an item has a warranty provided directly through the manufacturer, the defect or the issue with workmanship will need to be resolved by the manufacturer. I was not able to locate the order with the information provided, but if you can send an email regarding this to help@webstaurantstore.com and put it to the attention of Cassandra B, I can look into this for you further.
I ordered two products on June 10th with next day delivery. On June 11th at 4:00 pm they had not arrived. I contacted Webstraunt and CS told me they would be delivered on the 12th- two day delivery. I paid for one day delivery. They would not have given me a refund if I would not have checked into the delivery status. I will buy locally from now on.
Thank you for your review, George. I apologize that your expedited order arrived late. In that scenario, we would definitely refund you the difference in the shipping charges since you paid for a service that was not provided. We do ask that customer monitor tracking and let us know about any issues or errors that occur in transit so we can take care of it promptly for you. If you have any further questions or concerns regarding this, please contact us at help@webstaurantstore.com.
I rely in WebstaurantStore for my Personal Chef business. They always have the item I am looking for or a great subtitute to get the job done. The pricing is more than fair as well.
Thank you for your review, Karla. I am glad that you have been able to find the products that you need on our website. If you have any questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact us at help@webstaurantstore.com.
We have been searching for this type of spatula for a while now. I'm glad I found it here. And we just hope it is what we have been looking for. Here is to hoping fingers crossed.
Thank you for the review, Dan. We are glad that you were able to finally find what you have been looking for and that it ended up being on our site! If you have any questions or need assistance, please let us know.
They have a variety of merchandise and different sizes. Ordering is fast and easy. The shipping cost was a little too much thou. Other than that the store is highly recommended.
Thank you for your review, Manuel. We are glad that you have enjoyed our website and the products. Unlike most wholesalers, we do not include the price of shipping into the pricing of our items. This way, we can offer the lowest possible prices for all of our customers. This does mean we put the full shipping amount on at the end. Typically, the more products you purchase, the better your shipping rate becomes for each individual item. If you have any questions about this or any other processes, just email help@webstaurantstore.com and we will be happy to help.
I love shopping online and I dealt with hundreds of companies in my lifetime. Never in my life have I ever came across a company like The Webstaurant Store. An online Store from HELL, customer service probably got their training from Satan himself. Bought a large item from them and got a used item, I tried to get a replacement or refund but got nowhere with the customer service from HELL. They wanted to charge a restocking fee and shipping to return the item back to them. They wouldn't even give me a refund for the lousy piece of crap they sent to me. This is a warning to anyone thinking about buying from The Webstaurant Store, please STAY AWAY!
Thank you for your review, Anthony. I am sorry to hear that your experience was not as positive as it should have been when ordering from us and working with our Customer Solutions department. All of our products are sold as new but without information to review your order such as the order number or email address used to place the order, I cannot speak specifically to what happened, but we would like to review this instance with you. Please reach back out to us at help@webstaurantstore.com so we can look into this further with you.
Ordered a stainless sink and faucet combo. Initially the sink arrived accompanied by two boxes of cake boxes, but no faucet. The first few emails to customer service resulted in them being incredulous that I actually did not order cake boxes. I even had to send photos of the boxes and shipping labels to get them to agree to take them back. Sink arrived in a mess of cardboard pieces taped together- no real shipping box. Upon opening, it was corroded. Real stainless steel corroded? I had to have multiple emails to different customer service persons each time, explaining the problem and ultimately had to send photos of the damage. They finally agreed to take back the sink but refuse to take back the faucet without a re-stocking charge. I don't need a faucet for a sink that I am sending back! I asked why they will not provide a phone number to call instead of doing emails to multiple persons. The answer was; "We are a web-based company." That means what? That you have a website? Big F' ing deal. Everyone has a website, and a phone too. They just don't want to make it too easy for you to reach them.
Thank you for your review, Edward. I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the experience of purchasing a sink and a faucet from us. When an incorrect item is received, we ask that a picture be sent so that we can confirm the item that was sent incorrectly and be able to relay this information accurately to the warehouse so that this does not continue to happen. Since we are unable to see that item in person, we request a photo to have the issue taken care of right away and correctly resolved. When items arrive in a defective or damaged condition, we do like to receive photos of this as well so that we can improve how items are packaged so that damage does not occur in the future, to be able to provide manufacturers proof of a defect, and so that we know how best to resolve the situation with you.
Since we do work as a team in our customer service, you can sometimes talk with multiple people, but all interactions and emails with you are noted on the order in question so that we are able to read through it completely and know what the next step to assist should be. We are a completely e-commerce business, so our main source of communication with customers is via chat or email, but we do also have customer service phone as well. If you would rather talk through a concern instead of emailing or chatting with us through the site, our number can be found when going through the checkout process, or by typing "Phone Number" into our search bar.
As for the faucet, since there was not a defect like the sink, it would be considered a standard return with a restocking fee and return shipping cost associated with it since we do treat each item individually. I do understand your frustration and I would be happy to see if we have other resolutions available for you if you reach out to us at Help@WebstaurantStore.com with your order number and put it to the attention of Emily A.
There's no sense in writing things that have already been reported. Bottom line, company could care less. If a company has delivery and customer service issues time and time again it's time to hurt them where it matters. Subpar delivery and customer service is not acceptable. This company has very bad reviews and that hasn't changed. It's a good thing that I'll waste more time to let people know and hopefully they will loose business as a result. In this day and age customer retention is important and if you don't care, and clearly they don't, then their bottom line, sales, profit, should hurt them. BUYER BEWARE, DO YOU WANT TO GET A GOOD PRODUCT AT A GOOD PRICE ONLY TO HAVE IT NOT SHOW UP, PUTTING YOU IN THE POSITION TO UPSET YOUR CUSTOMERS? I DONT THINK SO. SO THINK TWICE BEFORE DOING BUSINESS WITH A COMPANY THAT NEEDS TO TIGHTEN UP THEIR ACT. Don't LET THEIR BAD SERVICE IMPACT YOUR CUSTOMERS.
Thank you for your review, Linnea. I am sorry to hear that you have been so unhappy with the deliveries and customer service. While we do our best to provide estimates for delivery of orders, we are unable to provide guarantees unless expedited shipping is ordered, but delays can happen in transit. I was able to locate your order, and I do see that you notified us on 10/30 (Wednesday) that you were missing some items. At that point we had requested further information regarding which tracking number you had received, so that we could contact the carrier and start a trace for the missing items. Once additional information was provided, a trace was started, and the carrier typically has 48-72 hours to complete their investigation. We do have to do this so that the carrier knows of the issue and if they are able to locate the shipment near you, they can have it delivered faster than we could have it shipped to you. As of 11/1 (Friday), we went ahead and reshipped you the missing items before the carrier was able to complete their investigation as an exception as we wanted to resolve this for you. Please feel free to contact us at Help@Webstaurantstore.com if you have any further questions or concerns.
I place an order ( #*******) and pay next day delivery on 08/20/20 and 5 days later I find out that they haven't not even give my package to UPS and every time I contacted them they keep giving me false hope that was UPS not delivering and when I contacted UPS the confirmed that not package was received and all webstaurant did was created a shipping label and never give package to UPS.
SO PLEASE FUTURE VICTIMS DONT PURCHASE FROM THIS STORE!
Thank you for your review, Noe. We were sorry to hear that you had not received this order, let alone not receiving it next day as ordered. It appeared that the carrier had lost the shipment, and we have refunded you in full for this order. If you have any further questions, please reach out to help@webstaurantstore.com and our team will be happy to assist you.
I cannot reach an adult,I believe this company to be a fraud,I'm $500 out of pocket,my Amazon Visa will not help me? I'll fight it until I get my damn refund, fn assh****
Thank you for your review Brant, and I am sorry to hear about your situation! If you have any additional questions please feel free to live chat with us, or you can email us at help@webstaurantstore.com.
I ordered two fryers from this company in October. My food truck wasn't finished being built until JUNE 1st. I had been using only one fryer due to a propane regulator issue. After I bought the right regulator I could use both fryers. I hooked both fryers up the night before last. The fryer that I hadnt even used AT ALL CAUGHT ON FIRE... I used it literally 3 hours and it was up in flames! I contacted the company and they pretty much said suck it up SO BUYER BEWARE!
Thank you for your review, Brenda! I am sorry to hear that the 2nd unit is not working properly. These units have a 6 month warranty from the date of delivery for commercial locations, and only a 30 day warranty if installed in a food truck. As the items were delivered on 10/28, the warranty would have expired on 11/28/2020 for a foodtruck, or 4/28/2021 for commercial locations. The warranty can be found here: https://cdnimg.webstaurantstore.com/documents/pdf/warranty/main_street_equipment_fryer_6_month_warranty.pdf. Because this product is out of warranty, you will need to have a technician in your area fix the unit. If you have any questions about this process, please let us know.
Great stuff! These things have been such a pain in the the butt and have kept me from enjoying the yard. Well, its "Great to know there's something out to kill these evil bastards.
Thank you for your review, WIlliam. I'm glad you were able to find a product to help you enjoy your yard. If you have any more questions or comments, please don't hesitate to reach out to us via Help@Webstaurantstore.com.
Happy with the price and shipping

Thank you for your review, Margarita! I am happy to hear that you were able to get a variety of products that you needed at a great price and with fast shipping. We truly appreciate your business and positive feedback and we look forward to working with you in the future. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at Help@WebstaurantStore.com.
Their products do not match what it says on the website. When you want to return it, they stiff you with a hefty "restocking fee" as well as return postage.
Answer: Thank you so much for your question, Darlene! We do not sell our products under any other name on the internet. If you have any questions about purchasing, please reach out to Help@WebstaurantStore.com or our chat service.
Answer: Thank you for your question, Len. We do our best to offer the lowest prices possible per item. One way we do that is to not include the shipping cost into the prices of our products. As a result, we do charge the full shipping cost on each of our orders. It is our hope that we offer a low enough price on our items to still offer a competitive total price, even with the shipping cost included. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us at Help@WebstaurantStore.com. Thank you for your response, Giusel. I'm sorry that your orders have arrived damaged. Our warehouses do package each shipment with care to ensure that your items arrive intact and undamaged. However, there is still a small chance of accidents occurring in transit. If you experience any issues with your order upon delivery, please let us know as soon as possible and we will get this resolved for you. I am unable to locate your order without your order number, email address or information used to place your order but if this issue is still ongoing, please reach out to us at Help@WebstaurantStore.com.
Answer: Thank you for question Arden! Our Customer Solutions Department will be happy to assist you in answering any question you have about our products, and you can reach them via our Live Chat: https://chat.webstaurantstore.com/, or you can email at help@webstaurantstore.com.

Answer: Thank you for your question, Dorothy! I apologize, customers are not able to pick up orders at our warehouses. This is for insurance and liability reasons. I am sorry for this inconvenience! If you have any other questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out to help@webstaurantstore.com or use our live chat and we will be happy to help!
Answer: Thank you for reaching out, Tina! I do not see your order number with the information provided, but if you reach out to help@webstaurantstore.com or use our LiveChat feature on the website, and our customer service team will be happy to help!
Answer: Hello Susan, Thank you for your question! Do you have an item number that I could reference? It does sound odd that the price would jump from one part on the website to the shopping cart. Our prices are based on live pricing from the manufacturer, but if it was an instant jump in price, we can certainly look into this for you. Please email help@webstaurantstore.com or feel free to use our live chat, and we will be happy to assist and look into this!
Answer: Hello Patrick, Thank you for your question. Please feel free to reach out to help@webstaurantstore.com or use our live chat with the amount you were charged and the date of the charge, and our Customer Solutions Specialists will be happy to look into this for you. For customer security, please do not include your full credit card number.
WebstaurantStore has a rating of 1.9 stars from 851 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally dissatisfied with their purchases. Reviewers dissatisfied with WebstaurantStore most frequently mention customer service, credit card and return shipping. WebstaurantStore ranks 25th among Restaurant Supply sites.
Thank you for your review, James. We do put our return policy on our website for all customers to view. This can be found here: https://www.webstaurantstore.com/policies.html#Returns_Policy. The reason that we charge a restocking fee is to keep costs, and ultimately our prices, down for our customers. When you buy from a company that has no restocking fees, you pay for returns that the company handles, indirectly, through higher prices. There are a lot of costs associated with processing an order, as well as returning an order. Most companies do build it into their initial pricing, but we try to charge it only when it is needed. If you have any questions about this process, please let us know.
