YOUR DELICATESSEN NEEDS YOU! 🫵🏻

We've been open for 5 years now so we thought the new year provides us with a great opportunity to ask our beloved customers for their views on how we're doing. Accordingly, we'd like to invite you to take part in our very imaginatively named 2026 Customer Feedback Survey.

We'd like to know what we're getting right and where we could maybe do a little bit better. The survey is completely anonymous, so honest and constructive feedback would be greatly appreciated.

The survey takes around 6-7 minutes to complete and, to thank you for your valuable time, all respondents will have the opportunity to be entered into a prize draw to win 1 x £50 French & Day gift card or 1 of 10 free hot drinks.

The survey closes on Sunday 15th February and we will pick the prize draw winners shortly afterwards.

To completely the survey, just click here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdzfvcqbArrvz8PV6RePSY8BExQ6zOS1dSZ6aqi43N3Q-bm-g/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=110905254617674190950

Thanks in advance! 😁
