Received a “very expensive “ basket on July 21 and was shocked at the cost and what it consisted of. Outdated cheese, almost outdated cookies, I think homemade mints that we had to discard as well they had a very strange “off” taste. A couple of cheap bags of chips, a bag of toffee and some fruit. The friend that purchased it was Very, very disappointed . Guaranteed none of us will be ordering from them again.
Thank you to Charmaine for making this right. She clarified the items being imported and not cheap. I apologize for writing a review rather than speaking to her first. Yes, there were definitely some issues with the items but she made amends and corrected our concerns. Thank you, we appreciate what you did. Always best to check with the business first.

October 14th we picked up 2 trays, sandwiches, meat & cheese, to have on hand while prepping for my son's wedding that afternoon. Meat & cheese tray was a mountain of cold cuts and a variety of cheese. The sandwiches were FULL of fillings. Everyone was very impressed.

George's Market is amazing!! Their gift baskets are perfect! They are very accommodating. I wanted to give my boyfriend's family a condolence gift and I had requested it a little last minute (as they typically require at least 24hrs to prepare a basket) and they were able to do one up for me the same day and delivered it within only a couple hours! I was blown away! The basket was so beautifully packaged and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend them for any occasion!

Phoned George's tonight to ask if they had blueberries. . I was told yes. When I asked where they were from I was told "I have customers. I have to let you go." and she hung up. So much for going to George's. It was rude I live an hour away. Before I drive in I needed to know they were mot just farmed..but I was dumped. I was looking for 5 baskets.

Local grocery store. It may not have the selection of a large corporation, but it has most of the items that I need. I mainly go there for the meat and baking section, and I like picking up some of the pre-made pierogi and cabbage rolls. Yeah. I'm lazy like that sometimes.
I also purchased big assorted gift basket from George’s. I ended up buying it for a hotel front desk clerk that I was rude to during a regrettable night of drinking. It was a tremendous gift basket, but I’m sure it didn’t nearly make up for the hassle I had caused that poor guy. Now that I think of it, I should have put a 20 in the envelope with the card to juice it up a bit more.
