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!
Thank you, for your prompt delivery and Yorkshire Gold Black Tea. Please describe the excellent blend of Black Tea Leaves.
The flavor of mango is spot on, delicious, crisp tasting.
Wonderful products, easy ordering, and quick delivery always.
Items arrived from the shop quickly and packed well. Will be ordering again!
They carried an English chocolate I can’t get elsewhere in the States
Just navigate the site and place your order. Plain and simple.
Ordered before.
Love this company! Order at least at Christmas! Just sad they are out of what we need.
Great range of english Christmas treats at a great price and free shipping special offer.
Miss English Christmas foods and don’t have time to make all of them. Plus they had a great selection and monster munch for the win!
The place I usually get the tea is out you have a new customer. Merry Christmas!
Easy checkout, super cute high quality products, and great customer service!
Found online
Biscuits with tea is refreshing experience for yourself or to serve friends & family
I wanted to see what your store offered
Great product selection. But delivery can be slow.
Only store that has Glengoyne Fudge and other genuine English products
Glad I could find Gyokuro at rock bottom prices. It's my favorite tea so far. Minimal labeling on the source though. Thank you.
The selection and quality of teas is great. We enjoyed trying them all out and highly recommend
Ordered items weeks ago, still not here, not sure how to rate when nothing has arrived
Interesting products
I decided to see if their teas were as good as they claimed. The ones I've tried so far are superb!
I could not get the Stash Peach Tea here in the States anymore. Any other brand of peach tea I tried was not worth buying.
It was easy to order. The tea came even before the estimated delivery date.
I wanted to buy PG Tips decaffeinated. Not many stores offer it.
I was glad to find an online source that wasn't one of the big companies.
Good, easy. Relatively fast delivery. I am very satisfied.
I found on internet many years ago. They have been consistent.
On ordering, had difficulty with your site.
Easy to order
This store always has what I'm craving. Especially the custard creams.
I've used them before and they always have my biscuits.
I had issues with placing my order but when I spoke to the 800# they were very nice and helpful.
I have been buying from English Tea Store for many years. Their products are always wonderful.
I could not submit my order because of the address pop up. When I called the csr was not helpful.
Great to find a rich and abundant source of supply of all the things we miss from home.
The tea arrived well packaged and is of excellent quality. I'm very happy with all the process.
I have purchased from them before and know their work.
It was very good service, and very good tea. I would order from them again.
