Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 191 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the exceptional quality of the products, particularly the smoked salmon, describing it as delicious and superior to supermarket alternatives. Many highlight the excellent value for money and the overall satisfaction with their purchases, often stating they will reorder. The delivery service is frequently commended for being prompt, on time, and well-packaged, ensuring products arrive chilled and in perfect condition. Reviewers also appreciate the ease of the ordering process and the helpfulness of the team. However, some customers also noted occasional issues, such as one instance where the salmon was a little dry and had a hard glaze that needed removal. Another reviewer experienced a product that was badly sliced, making it difficult to serve. Additionally, some reported finding white fibrous strands in the fish, which deterred them from future purchases. There was also a mention of an order not arriving despite chasing for tracking details.

Arrived early on scheduled day. Heavily smoked Maldon cure remains a family Christmas favourite. For another year we may revert back to the long sliced version but the D cut lasts well and is easy to... See more

Amazing smoked salmon. I have been buying a side of L&J's double smoked salmon for the last few years at Christmas. The quality is amazing (so so much better than supermarket), a true artisanal produ... See more

The long slice salmon is the “gold standard” in our opinion. But this time we also had some gravadlax which with some dill mustard sauce and a handful of Italian winter salad leaves maybe the last fro... See more

Quite simply the best smoked salmon…

Quite simply the best smoked salmon I’ve ever tasted.

The salmon from Lambton & Jackson is exceptional. The quality is evident from the moment you open the pack – beautifully presented, perfectly sliced and with a wonderful aroma. The texture is silky smooth and the flavour is superb; delicately smoked with a depth and richness that enhances the salmon rather than overpowering it. My mouth is watering just writing about it!

What really impressed me was the balance. It has all the hallmarks of a truly artisan product – carefully crafted, incredibly fresh and packed with flavour. It was equally delicious enjoyed simply with brown bread and butter for lunch, and with eggs for breakfast.

This is not supermarket smoked salmon! It’s a premium product that looks and tastes genuinely special.

If you’re looking for smoked salmon for a celebration, gift (the hamper is a brilliant present!), dinner party or simply a treat for yourself (unfortunately I have to share it with the children as they love it too!), I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lambton & Jackson. Outstanding quality and worth every penny!

I even choose a specific place for brunch now because it serves Lambton & Jackson salmon!

Really disappointed

Really disappointed - ordered 2 sides of Salmon for delivery today for a dinner party tomorrow and despite chasing twice no tracking details provided and alas at 8.45 nothing has arrived - i tried to ring twice and no answer- I will have to go to Waitrose tomorrow first thing to replace - something I maybe should have done in the first place. Such a shame - loads of stress in

Fresh Salmon

I have been a fan of their smoked salmon for years which is simply the best you can buy. I recently bought the fresh salmon (whole side) as my local fishmonger was charging £40 a kilo which is punishingly expensive and even the better supermarket salmons £26-£30 a kilo always lack flavour. Lambton's whole side of fresh salmon which is guaranteed to be more than a kilo but has been closer to one and a half kilos on each occasion I have bought is very good. It is not comparable to the smoked salmon which is peerless but it is very good and cracking value. I always buy whole sides of either the smoked or the fresh and I think smaller portions can suffer because of the nature of packaging

Worth every penny

The hot smoked salmon fillets were absolutely delicious as always. Generous meaty portion size and also easy to prepare.
Delivery was on time. Will always order from l and J for special occasions.
