Advantages: Nice products

Disadvantages: Very expensive

As well as having over 100 stores dotted around the country, Whittard of Chelsea also have an online site, which while it doesn't have the same amount of stock as some of the store's I've been into, does carry a fairly wide variety of different products.

They sell lots of different varieties of teas, coffees, hot chocolates and lots of funky ceramics. The teas range from ordinary black tea to more exotic speciality tea such as First Flush Darjeeling. While the teas are very nice in the most part, (Their peppermint tea is not too my taste and I much prefer Twinnings) they seem to be very overpriced for what they are. The coffee follows a similar story. While very tasty, I tend to resrict it to special occasions as its so expensive comapred to other brands. With everyone from Tescos to Aldi doing premium coffees at a bargan price, I think they are well on their way to pricing themselves out of the market.

The same can be said for their ceramics ranges. I mean, they ARE very nice, but £6 for one dinner plate and £8 for one mug is taking it a bit far in my opinion.

Summary: Nice stores, but far too expensive
