18th March 2020 – To support the local community in these challenging times, The Hungry Guest shop in Petworth, West Sussex has announced an enhanced delivery service launching today for those unable to leave their homes. Deliveries will be made on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and orders can be made by phone.
Since opening a decade ago, The Hungry Guest has received several national and regional best in class awards and stocks a wide range of produce selected by expert grocers, butchers, cheesemongers and bakers.
The delivery service will be available *free of charge to residences in Petworth town centre, with a charge of £5 applied to deliveries to other locations, including Northcapel, Kirdford, Petworth, Burton, Egdean, Selham, South Ambersham, Easebourne, Fernhurst, North Ambersham, Lurgashall, Tillington and Lodsworth.
Orders can be placed over the phone on 01798 651004 between 8.00am and 5.00pm Monday to Saturday and 9.00am to 4.00pm on a Sunday.
*Free delivery applies to a minimum spend of £10 on each order and a limit is in place of up to three items of any product to allow for a fair distribution across the community.
The Hungry Guest will only accept card payments once orders are confirmed (no cash on delivery) and a time slot will not be given to allow deliveries to respond to requests as quickly as possible. Customers are urged to limit the movement of cash, which carries a higher risk of transferal of the Covid-19 virus.
A delivery day will be determined once the order has been placed, however the team will do their best to provide an indication before an order is completed, depending on the volume of orders taken at that time. Goods purchased will be delivered to the doorstep only and staff will ring the door-bell to notify residents on arrival.
Please check delivery Terms & Conditions as well as the shop’s opening hours on The Hungry Guest website before visiting and placing orders, as changes may occur at short notice, in line with Government advice. The team is actively monitoring all developments to ensure staff and customers are safe and healthy.
