DELIVERY

We normally deliver within two working days. Our carriers are  DPD and DPD Local  who offer online tracking and notification of delivery. They will often accept orders to leave in a porch but we advise you to give an address where there is someone to accept deliveries in office hours.

Managers: we advise you to maintain a “secret stash” of coffee to avoid panic deliveries which can be difficult or even impossible.
