From April the 5th and every Wednesday thereafter our local delivery service is changing.
We will no longer offer the service to some of the more far flung postcodes that have until now been included.
As we have gradually returned almost entirely to in-person tasting events the volume of local deliveries has dropped off, so that it no longer makes economic sense to offer the service. We're also aware that with the impending introduction of Glasgow's Low Emissions Zone we couldn't continue the service as-is.
Deliveries by Velo-City will continue to be made every Wednesday. The postcodes covered by Velo-City are:
North of the River - G1, G2, G3, G4, G11, G12, G13, G14, G15, G20, G31, G40, G61*, G62*
South of the River - G5, G41, G42, G43, G44, G46, G51, G52.
The minimum order for local delivery remains £30.
*Deliveries to G61 and G62 postcodes will generally be done on a Wednesday, but may sometimes be on a Thursday. We will email to let you know if this is the case.
FREE LOCAL DELIVERIES OVER £60
£4 charge for deliveries between £30 and £60
Our local delivery service operates every Wednesday*.
*G61 & G62 may sometimes be on a Thursday.
The cut-off to ensure your order is ready for delivery is 4pm on Tuesday.
Here are the postcodes our local delivery service covers:
The minimum order for local delivery is £30.
If we are particularly busy then deliveries may be split across Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
*Deliveries to G61 and G62 postcodes will generally be done on a Wednesday, but may sometimes be on a Thursday. We will email to let you know if this is the case.
From November 2021 the majority of our local deliveries are done by Velo-City Deliveries using their pedal-powered, electrically-assisted cargo bikes. If you live in postcodes G21, G22, G23, G32, G33, G45, G53, parts of G73, or G76, then deliveries will generally still be done by car, or by electric van whenever possible.

- Orders can be held for a maximum of three months for spirits and wines, and one month for beers. After that we'll be in touch to arrange shipping.
- We can hold up to six bottles of spirits, up to twelve bottles of wine, and up to twelve bottles or cans of beer. Once you reach any of these amounts we'll be in touch to arrange shipping.
