About Forman & Field
Written by the company
Forman & Field is our gourmet food home delivery service. It's very simple. We source the finest foods from across the British Isles and whisk them, fresh as can be, to your doorstep.
Fish, meat, cheese, charcuterie – the very best we can find. We also make gourmet dishes for top restaurants and hotels so you get to try those, too, in the comfort of your home.
By the way, in case you're wondering, there is no Mr Field but there is a Mr Forman: Lance Forman, the great grandson of Aaron 'Harry' Forman who started this deliciously fishy tale.
WHY F&F FOOD TASTES SO GOOD
In a nutshell: Quality, freshness, and a team that cares.
1. All ingredients are fresh as a daisy. A freshly-picked super-fresh daisy.
2. Every dish is made to order. Your order arrives and we start preparing it. That’s it. Nothing sits on shelves. If an item arrives frozen, that’s because we want to lock in the freshness.
3. We only work with family-run, artisan suppliers. Because ethical husbandry, seasonality and flavour are their priority.
4. Everything is made by hand. We pack every order by hand, too, using specialist protective packaging.
5. We use overnight couriers. It means your food arrives in tip-top condition.
LONDON’S FIRST EVER PROTECTED FOOD
We’ve been producing London Cure Smoked Salmon for over a century, so it was a proud day for us when our ‘London’ Cure’ smoked salmon was recognised as a delicacy worthy of PGI Certification. PGI status, enforced by law, is designed to protect and celebrate traditional regional foods similar to Champagne, Parma ham, Melton Mowbray pork pies and Wensleydale Cheese to name just a few.
Not only is ‘London Cure Smoked Salmon’ now the only smoked salmon in the world with protected status, but London’s first ever food or drink to achieve this coveted recognition.
The PGI label also protects consumers from buying cheap imitations that are not of equivalent quality or have a different flavour. But with Forman’s you don’t need to worry. We are the only smoked salmon producer in the world to hold this coveted status.

The rolled rib of beef was a joy
The rolled rib of beef was delivered to the front door on time and in perfect order. The quality is beautiful and reliable, what a treat. So much better value than going out to eat and more enjoyable to have an easy to cook meal at home with family. In addition you get the leftovers for later!
These people are so helpful, a pleasure to deal with.
Tasteless navarin of lamb
Delivery left at front door of block of flats instead of ringing my flat bell and bringing it to my flat. First order. The navarin of lamb was totally tasteless.

The best smoked salmon
The best smoked salmon I have ever had! The quality, taste, and freshness are truly exceptional. The combination of crab and lobster in the Paupiettes, adds a delightful twist to the dish
Another great selection of food
Another great selection of food. Would 100% get again and recommend, quality is always good. Thank you.
You did exceptionally well
You did exceptionally well. The wine was delivered when you promised and very well packed and…. chilled!!! You could tell it was packed with care and the note inside was a good touch. The tea towel was also a nice touch. I will use you again. Thank you.
Lou.
Everything we ordered was packaged with care & arrived early. The ham hock terrine was especially lovely, will definitely be placing future orders.

Forman & Field offer top quality foods…
Forman & Field offer top quality foods at attractive prices. Their London Cure smoked salmon is the very best. I recently bought a range of foods from them to celebrate my daughter's birthday. Our guests loved the salt beef and other delights, including salmon roulade and smoked salmon pate. Their smoked salmon and cream cheese with chives bagels were delicious. Everything was delivered to our door by Forman & Field's own driver, who was very courteous and polite. I've been buying Forman & Field's products for several years now and their standard is consistently very high. Truly excellent service from a wonderful family firm.

Brilliant experience, delicious food
An all round easy/positive experience - easy to order, well packaged and still fresh when it arrived and, most of all, incredibly tasty on the plate. Highly recommend.

Educational, and enjoyable, a great discovery!
I persuaded my non foodie husband to come with me on the tour. Admittedly I wanted him to drive me across London. BOTH of us loved the tour and are busy recommending to others. Lance’s history of the industry and his family company explained why the quality of most Smoked salmon had deteriorated in recent decades, I wasn’t imagining it. Followed by Darren, not only a genius with a knife, but an amusing line of patter. And the tasting plate was delicious and made for a great lunch.
The only problem is that I am now hooked on Formans and will accept no substitutes as they are vastly inferior. My taste buds were right, you get what you pay for.

My first order with Form & Field
My first order with Form & Field, I wasn't disappointed, packaged really well, lovely food that you can tell is fresh (still working my way through it!) the little salmon bites are gorgeous. As food is fresh, give yourself a bit of a lead time as to when you want the food. Really nice company, traditional, good customer service and after care. Highly recommend if you entertaining and dont want to cook, will def. use again. Only reason 4 not 5 stars is Ive not tried everything yet !

Smoked salmon tour of Forman's factory
We were welcomed by the Great grandson of the Founder, who gave a very informative speech about the uniqueness of this London Smoked salmon factory close to the former Olympic Stadium. Then followed a demonstration of the process of getting smoked salmon slices by Darren Matson. He was very amusing and proud that he held the Guinness World Record for the fastest time to bone and slice a smoked salmon. Our lunch of 9 taster smoked salmon was a joy. We would highly recommend you going on this tour

Fascinating
Fascinating. Interesting at so many levels (fish, food tech, biology, London, Olympics organising, politics). Tasty. Just a brilliant day

A very tasty and interesting experience
Me and my sister enjoyed a great visit to this iconic London smokehouse. We started with a brief history of the company then enjoyed an exceptional live filleting and carving of salmon. We finished by enjoying a fabulous salmon platter which was delicious
A great day and I learnt so much about a great British delicacy

Such amazing customer service
Such amazing customer service! I reached out to see if I could place an order for delivery ASAP even though no available delivery slots were showing and Rachael got back to me quickly and efficiently and said they could sort this no problem. It's given me such an amazing first impression of this company and will be sure to shop here again because of it!

First time purchase
I was kindly given a voucher for F and F. This was the first time that I had come across the company and I enjoyed looking at the website! The description and photographs were good and realistic as to what we had. The delivery was perfect. Our favourite were the beetroot falafels! They were amazing! The ‘pretend salmon’ was also very delicious! The buttermilk chicken also went down very well. We had to cater for gluten free, dairy free and meat eaters- there was a good selection available. We would recommend this company.

I am afraid over Christmas
I am afraid over Christmas, I visited a relatives and along with myself they were very disappointed on their selection. The turkey was very dry and they commented that it was cost over quality .

Ballotine of Turkey is all stuffing
I have ordered from this company for 3 years. It is easy to place your order and the delivery was on time via DPD. This year it was very disappointing. Firstly the mince pies did not have the same quantity of fruit within the pies and 1 was smashed when they got packed. F&F offered a small refund which was not good enough as the pies were a gift. However the Ballotine of Turkey was absolutely unacceptable. The previous year it was excellent hence the re-order. This year it had 85% stuffing and hardly any Turkey which meant it was not appetizing. I emailed a complaint along with a photo and the email reply said the following:
Thank you for your email.
I’ve spoken to our chef who’s confirmed that the stuffing in the Turkey Ballotine is made with turkey breast and turkey confit leg, so it is 100% turkey.
At this time, we are not making any further adjustments to the Ballotine however, we do appreciate your feedback and will continue to review the quality of our products
A nice arrogant couldn't care less reply. Their website says pork sage and apple stuffing and the ballotine of Turkey image looks like there is over 75% turkey meat showing. There are much better providers out there who respond much better if things are disappointing. For clarity I will be going elsewhere next year F&F.
