Not the cheapest (and in some cases, suet pellets, almost 60% more expensive) but I’ve been using them for years for certain items, and they are very reliable. Nearly always next day delivery (and I... See more

New to these guys

New to these guys, as I was let down, elsewhere.
But a nice surprise was coming. I have now placed two orders, both arrived from order to door within 23 hours. With free delivery!
Because I was new, they included a tea bag with their free fab catalogue. A lovely touch. A little freebie as well. They actually produce a lot of the food they sell.
Really pleased I found them.

Great company.

Honestly what a great little company this is.
We buy our guinea pig food from them and the piggies love it.
We always get a free gift and a personalised letter which is a nice touch.
Amazing value on the piggy food which last several months.

I would highly recommend them.

I see bad reviews for their choice of courier, but if they used Yodel, people would moan, if they used Evri people would moan and so on. Unfortunately, the state of this countries delivery systems leaves a lot to be desired, but I have only positives to say about Brinvale.

Prices shot up

Why waste money on revamping the website? The quantity has gone down from 25 kg to 20 kg but they are charging the same price. It is good quality bird food but that is quite a hike - do all companies think we don't notice?!

Very impressed with the products and delivery

I use to buy bird suet pellets from Wilko but they no longer deliver the 12.5kg boxes. I then found Brinvale on Google and ordered the 10kg mixed suet pellets. Wow, the quality is superb and my birds go crazy for them. Purchased at 8pm and got the suet the next day before lunchtime. I am very impressed with their high quality bird food, and will keep purchasing from them from now on

Good choice of bird foods but discrepancies in ingredients

Good choice of bird foods, price reasonable but not cheapest - Multi-buy offer for sunflower seeds just matching ebay suppliers'

Unclear ingredients in their own brand swan pellets - the one showing on their website (has no added minerals and vitamins) differs from further email inquiry (with added minerals and vitamins) . The discrepancies have not been clarified after a month.

Highly recommended - by me and the birds!

Great company with so much food choice that's helpful for the birds, and I was especially pleased to see that they do a dog-friendly version of winter food for birds. Two of my dogs are absolute hoovers, so it's good to know that I don't have to worry about them becoming ill from eating bird food that I put down for our feathered friends.

Good uncomplicated service

I bought sunflower seeds. The price seemed fair and after ordering on Friday morning the seeds were delivered at Saturday lunchtime with a one hour time slot by DPD. Perfect!

Excellent all round

Excellent all round. Easy to order, quick delivery, packed well, good quality and a fair price. The cockatiel mix was superb with very little safflower seeds which our birds hate.

It was a nice touch giving us a teabag and a free sample of food. Our parakeets loved it!

Order number was 329316

EXCELLENT Service.😊

I received my order and was this time VERY impressed with the courier who delivered it. He knocked my door , waited and then asked if he could place it in the hall for me as it was heavy. Full marks !

Bird Garden

I had a shuftie on google for garden grit. I stumbled upon Brinvale Bird Foods. I'm as passionate about gardening as I am about birds. Oystershell grit, though ostensibly sold by Brinvale for the betterment of birds' diets, makes a fantastic soil conditioner too. I found the whole process very simple. The company's communication throughout was brilliant; I was advised of every step along the way. As a reward for having made a purchase, I received (as does every customer) a free sample (mine was bird mix; it changes each month) and a much needed free cuppa.
Great quality and range of products. UK based company. Sound, green credentials. What's not to like? The garden birds'll be over the moon, as will my potted plants once their drainage is enhanced.
I'll be back...👍

I've been using this company for bird…

I've been using this company for bird food over the last few months. The quality of bird food is fabulous. I feed a wide variety of local birds which love the various foods. Delivery is super fast. They add a wee free sample in with your order. I've now found my bird food supplier! Can't recommend these guys enough. Thank you Brinvale x

Brinvale ‘fail to displease’ yet again.

I resumed using Brinvale again for my wild bird food this last winter. The bulk prices are comparable to some other suppliers, however, the quality and Brinvale customer service is exemplary. If I order before noon my birds are feasting again at lunchtime the next working day.
An additional benefit is that Brinvale always add a small free packet of alternative bird food to my bulk order. This freebie I always donate to the birds at my local nature reserve along with some of my regular supplies.
I am sure that the local bird population hereabouts would like to join me in offering thanks to those at Brinvale.

Top notch.

First order but if this is the quality of the product and the delivery, it wont be the last.
Unlike some others experiences, we have an excellent DPD service here, we are pretty remote, but have never had a problem with DPD. I bought straight seed as i like to mix my own according to season and the birds needs, and its lovely, clean stuff, no chaff or admixture that i can see. Excellent.

Disgraceful service & appalling deliveries …

I have used this rather expensive company for the past year & was due a delivery today! Didn’t arrive!!! This is the third time this has happened now as Brinvale insist on using DPD a second rate delivery company! They see my house is behind a hedge & send me notification that I was out! I’m disabled & in 24/7 not only that but they have instructions to leave at my front door! Never again! Absolutely disgusting! I would strongly suggest people find an alternative!!!

Super fast delivery

I have ordered from Brinvale for a number of years now and it amazes how fast their delivery is, even mid-December my order was delivered next day!
But most importantly our birds in the garden love Brinvale's bird food, even more than some of the stuff you can buy from a well-known garden centre.

I would definitely recommend this bird seed supplier.
