This store us my new bff for UK goodies. The cookies came in tact. The chocolate although I haven't opened and tried it, was NOT melted. They placed a freezer pack which melted but it did its job! I have to admit I was expecting melted shortbread chocolate cookies. However, that was not the case! Ordering was easy. Waiting for delivery and/or ship time was just a few days.
This was my first time ordering from English Tea Store's site and I am totally satisfied! All the goodies were delivered fast and packaged well. Nothing damaged, crushed or crumbled! Cannot wait to place additional orders! I paid extra for the cooling bag and things were packed perfectly in it. Thanks so much!
Excellent service! GREAT STORE. Checks all the boxes for service. Will definitely shop here again!
Straight forward and relatively reasonable. Good choice.
Easy to buy but the cost keeps going up... As is everything.
Better price... For now.
The re-order function does not work... I wish it did
Best place for a true English Breakfast tea
The re-order function does not work...
Easy Peasy to purchase. I always purchase four pouches at a time as I drink that much!
I purposely signed up to receive a $5 discount on any order over $50 but when I tried to use the coupon for an order of 8 tins of tea it would not work so I reduced to just 6 tins. I even tried with 9 and 10 tins. Sad :(
Easy to place order, reasonable shipping cost, quick delivery.
Wonderful tea! We buy from the English Tea Store frequently.
Former and present customer.
Awesome. Order all my tea from the English Tea Store and they have great selections.
I tried to apply the coupon code ETS5$ which you just sent me in an email and it was invalid.
My shopping experience is always terrific at the English Tea Store.
Great. Love ETS!
This was an easy purchase and shipping happened relatively quickly. Happy customer.
Just as pictured. Simple yet beautiful. Would purchase again.
Great customer service, quality products, delivered promptly and safely!
My husband loves the tea!
Lots of selection, generous portions, quick service and shipment. The products don't disappoint this lover of UK sweets, tea and scones!
Originally for the tea! Finding the other products was a bonus. I keep ordering and now my staff at the office eagerly watch for the box.
This is my favorite place to buy tea! I love this tea
Great selection of teas and easy to use website. I particularly like the fact that they have a detailed description of each tea, along with a clear picture of the tea itself. I have selected some teas to try based on the description.
Great selection of tea, and easy to use web site. The price is also very competitive.
Easy to use web site. Dependable retailer.
Only thing that would help is free shipping which Harney does.
Web search.
Quick and easy. Great service and great prices. Always find just what I'm looking for.

I am Very happy with ETS products and services. Thank you.
Easy to order. Delivered within a couple of days. Enjoying my Daddies SAUCE.
Simply, easy, and stop asking to me to make an account.
You sell coffee crisps.
I've enjoyed my shopping experience so far, though I've made it easy by bookmarking everything I want so whenever I run out of something I typically reorder the tea and six coffee crisps within 10mins. I do enjoy sometimes ordering samples just to try out teas, I did that in the beginning and found around five teas that I added in the rotation, except Sencha, I always need Sencha.
Bought some Brewley's Irish Cream coffee and it arrived fresh and was quick! Will buy again.
Because it was the only other store besides Amazon that I could find that carried what I was looking for.
Quick, easy and just what I was looking for. Great resource for the flavors you miss.
ETS never disappoints. Always high quality, great value and Yummy!
Great value, great selection
Stocks all the goods from UK that I want. Takes PayPal, reasonable. My go to, tea shop!
Repeat customer. You have what I need from the UK!

Found what I wanted easily, and ordering took only a couple of minutes.
ALL of the cookies were broken.
This was very disappointing and we will not be ordering them again
Fair prices, good selection, free shipping. Just what I needed!
I had no need to contact customer service, but the shipping speed and packaging were both great.
Looking for a good marmalade and found only by way of Googling.
Easy and successful. Found what I was looking for, and the cup and saucer are a lovely deep yellow.
