FAQ

Our products do not travel in refrigerated transport and as such we are unable to guarantee that the chocolate will not melt.

Best of British is not liable in the instance that chocolates or any other products are altered as a result of their transportation.

Please contact us either by phone or email us at [email protected].

Some lines of products are only available in store and some perishable or fragile items cannot be sent out via mail. If you have a special request, please email or ring us and we’ll let you know if we can help.

At Best of British we take pride in offering you the highest standard of products and service. However, it’s important to note that most food items are perishable and chocolate, in particular, can react to changes in temperature.

Contact us if you’re not familiar with the correct temperatures for the specific products you’d like to order.

We guarantee the quality of your products up to the time your order is dispatched.
