Think of us as an online farmer's market, where you can order the finest produce from the best small-scale British producers, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Service
Product

Service rating : Everything worked exactly as described
Product rating : The lamb was of truly excellent quality. However, raw, it really didn't look as though it would feed six. This was very concerning and again, it woul have helped for reassurance that it really was for six on the wrapping -it was, indeed, more than sufficient.

Service rating : The service was first class as I have always come to expect from Forman & Field. There did appear to be an issue with my post code which was resolved by email with customer services. I am on the mailing list for your brochure and have received product in the past so found this strange however it was not a problem.
Product rating : Sausages were great but were not of a uniform size which could have lead to some embarrassment when serving up as some were much larger than others.

Service rating : Delivery and website great, main course was a huge let down.
Product rating : Instructions for cooking left pastry completely raw, had to nearly double cooking time just to get it a bit golden (still unpluffed and raw on the bottom), this meant the beef (small piece of beef) was incredibly Overcooked.

I have used Forman and Field on lots of occasions now and have never been disappointed, although gifts for others I get good feedback from them on the items they have been sent and I must admit that the Wholemeal sourdough bread always gets rave reviews, in fact I wouldn't send anything now without this item being included!

Service rating : The quality of the items supplied was generally extremely high (although an item had broken and covered all the other items delivered in its contents, and one other item was poor). The website was really easy to use, the choice fantastic and delivery (save for the damaged item, in respect of which it is hard to tell how the damage occured) was very quick and efficient.

Service rating : The issue I have is with the '0customer service operators' on a Saturday - the people who i speak to mid week are excellent. The issue I had was the Saturday person said the steaks were not avialable and I did not get the 15% discount taken into account even though I gave them the promotional code. I will NEVER call you now at the weekend as this was the 2nd time I had problems. All was resolved by a young lady on the Monday. So Poor re initial contact but Excellent for the 2nd contact.
Product rating : I challenge the 'cooking times' . This is the second time I have purchased these and again the pastry took a lot longer to cook then advised. I will not purchase these again. I rate Good as the meat was tender.

Service
Product

Excellent products spoilt by poor customer service. I paid a supplement for pre mid-day delivery. Foreman's delivery agent could not be bothered to climb the stairs to our front door and left the box with a neighbour. The ice melted and s;poilt the macaroons. Foreman do not answer e-mails and their verbal level of customer service rates one star. Last year we had precisely the same experience. We will never deal with Foreman again. Godd products, socking service!

Product

Service rating : Service was ok but I seriously question the effectiveness of F&F's quality assurance procedures.... see below.
Product rating : We bought the same product last year and liked its flavour and succulence a lot.
This year, it was dry, salty and had an extremely strong stale taste. Rather unpleasant really. Our taste has not changed; your product has. Will not buy again; will not recommend. As a purveyor of fine foods you should do better.
