Terrible service
Terrible service. Ordered a simple shelf 6 weeks later and after contacting them 6 times they told me item was not in stock. Never again. Steer clear from this company.

Excess packaging.
The item was delivered on time and works fine but was very excessively and unnecessarily packed in a large box. A complete waste of packaging and money.
UNRELIABLE COMPANY
Very slow delivery
Was told it would arrive by Friday, nothing is here needed the items for an outdoor event
*** USE NISBETS IF ITS LAST MINUTE ***
Wrong order sent but helpful customer services
Lockhart sent the wrong order but offered a full refund without having to return the product. I was advised to contact their company's Scottish office to see if they were able to offer the right product. Will wait and see if this is possible before commenting further.
Reliable and reasonable
I have been buying from Lockhart for a few years now, they have always been reliable and reasonably priced. Communication is good, delivery is speedy and safe. Will continue to use their services.

I've used Lockhart before, the products are superb. Buying online could not be easier, communication and delivery are first class.
Real mess
Real mess. Item has 5 to 6 day lead time on your site.
Then I get an email that is not in stock and need to be ordered.
Then, after two weeks I get an email that item is out for delivery. After not receiving it, I call the custmer service that another two weeks need to be waiting and I am not sure if that one is accurate. What a mess!

wrong zise staff
I places the order and some came last week and some came yesterday. half of the staff is the wrong zise
Broken ceramic dishes.
I ordered ceramic dishes.
They arrived badly packaged & broken.
I called customer service to report & was informed they were dropped into our mail room x2 days, back & Could not be refunded due to policy.
I had not received any notification of delivery or any live tracking information:- as this is NOW standard for just about any & all on line orders/deliveries.
I was advised they send a "Email, to say its out for delivery - but not when !!! ...LOCKHARTS:- all deliveries are out post dispatch, IT THE WHEN BIT THAT IS ACCTUALLY "DELIVERED" THATS IMPORTANT !! ..the world has moved on in this sector, and time your couriers did the same !
On a brighter note :- customer service reluctantly ,agreed to refund for the broken goods, hence upped rating to two star.
Just find it expensive compared to…
Just find it expensive compared to other catering websites. We used to buy everything from Lockhart, but now only items we can’t get from elsewhere. It is strange that you don’t check rivals prices as, invariably you are more expensive and sometimes by a long way.
