The level of customer friendly and the fact that is UK based makes a huge difference, the staff truly shows a sense of care and responsibility when contacted. The delivery is normally very fast and in many occasions they have accommodated last minute orders. Excellent service, competitive prices.more than happy with them.

Very good service

Very good service. It is hard to buy individual cans of Royal Canin Sensitivity (most people sell them in 12s) so I was pleased to find Coombs. Will happily use them again.

Quick delivery

Ordered 3 times from here now, first time wasn't great but that was an issue with a certain driver for DPD but the past 2 times I've ordered, it's been shipped and delivered so quickly, will definitely keep ordering from here now in future for my dogs food :)
