Super fast Skrewball!

I ordered 3 bottles of Skrewball Whiskey on Sunday at 6pm and just had a knock at the door on Wednesday at 1pm. That’s very quick work, no issues with paying extra customs duty either. Excellent service!

Urban Drinks - First choice for all drinks

I've ordered from a several suppliers in the past but Urban Drinks has genuinely set a new standard for what great customer service looks like. Coupled with their wide array of drinks and their easy to use ordering form, this is a recipe for one heck of an enjoyable cocktail.

From the moment I had an issue or question, their support team was on it — fast, friendly, and unlike many businesses these days they were actually helpful. No waiting around for days, no copy-paste responses that don't address your issue. Real people giving real answers, and doing it with a warmth and professionalism that's rare these days.

Orders arrive promptly, which is exactly what you want when you're stocking up for an occasion or just treating yourself. But what really sets Urban Drinks apart is how they handle the occasional hiccup. Rather than just patching the problem and moving on, they take the time to find a solution that actually leaves you better off than before. It's that extra thought and care that turns a satisfied customer into a loyal one — and it worked on me.

You can tell this isn't just a company going through the motions. There's a genuine commitment to making sure every customer walks away happy, and more importantly, wanting to come back. That's exactly what I did.

If you're on the fence about trying Urban Drinks — don't be. They've earned every bit of trust and then some.

Ordered a rare El Salvador rum from…

Ordered a rare El Salvador rum from here after a mate recommended them to me, shipping was fast and, as suggested, I called them out of hours to hear their legendary voicemail message. 10/10 will definitely use again!!!!

Absolute shambles

Absolute shambles. I mistakenly ordered from this company, assuming it was UK-based, not realising they'd be shipping from Germany. I'd paid double for priority shipping and later emailed them to say I'd have to cancel if it wasn't going to arrive within a week. I was told it would be dispatched tomorrow and would arrive within 4-5 business days and arrive just after Easter, so I went ahead with the purchase. Just over a week later I received an automated email to say the item had just been packaged. It had taken them a week to put it in a box. It was still in Berlin.

In the subsequent email exchange, I received excuses about it being Easter (as if this wasn't known beforehand), smiling emojis and zero apology. How on earth they've got over 4 stars is beyond me. Never, ever again will I be buying anything from these cowboys and I recommend everyone else to give them a wide berth too.

Reply from Urban Drinks UK

Hello,
We are very sorry for the incident. Indeed, our own supply from the USA has been delayed because of the long Easter Holiday in Germany.
The goods arrived this morning and would have been shipped tomorrow. Therefore they would have arrived a week after Easter, which we assumed not to be too late. Sorry for that assumtion.
We have already cancelled and refunded the order yesterday as you latest wish and want to apologise again for the delay.
Kind regards,
Urban Drinks

First time ordering from this company & was a little worried after reading the negative reviews but I can’t fault them. My package arrived quickly & I was kept updated every step of the way. It was also the only place I could find that stocked it, very impressed would recommend & order again!
