About Fortnum & Mason

Written by the company

Welcome to Fortnum & Mason.

Since the first day they opened their doors back in 1707, Fortnum & Mason has been an essential destination for all in search of extraordinary food, unforgettable experiences and joy-giving things.

In the centuries since, they've perfected the art of Afternoon Tea at The Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon, sent their iconic wicker hampers to every corner of the globe, created all manner of wonderful things to eat and drink from our Food Hall, and even found the time to write a Cook Book or two, filled with countless mouthwatering recipes from the restaurants at their London flagship store.

Proud holders of Royal Warrants for generations, Fortnum's commitment to delicious innovation continues apace, with new stores opening close to home and further afield, and the introduction of a new 3rd Floor at Piccadilly, complete with a stunning Food & Drink Studio, Cook Shop, and an in-house gin distillery.

I am profoundly disappointed by the…

I am profoundly disappointed by the level of service I have received from Fortnum & Mason. As a company renowned for its heritage, refinement, and reputation built over many decades, I expected a standard of service that reflected those values. Sadly, my experience has been quite the opposite.

I placed my order well in advance and specified a delivery date for a very important occasion. Despite providing ample notice, the food was not delivered as requested. This failure is not simply an inconvenience—it has caused considerable upset and frustration, particularly because I chose Fortnum & Mason believing I could rely on a company with such an esteemed history.

For an establishment that prides itself on excellence and tradition, it is deeply disappointing that a basic commitment such as delivering an order on the agreed date could not be honoured. When customers place their trust in a prestigious company, they do so expecting reliability as well as quality. On this occasion, that trust has been let down.

I am extremely upset by this experience. The disappointment is heightened because I expected far better from a company whose name has long been synonymous with exceptional service. This incident has left me questioning whether the standards that once defined Fortnum & Mason are still being upheld.

I hope you will recognise the seriousness of this matter, provide a full explanation as to why my order was not delivered on the agreed date despite the advance notice given, and outline how you intend to put this right
