Best next-day delivery gifts for foodies
Left it to the last minute to find a present? Here are our top picks of where to shop for next-day delivery, from afternoon teas to kitchen gadgets, alcohol and more
No more last-minute panic if you've forgotten a gift for a loved one. Plenty of our favourite shops offer next-day delivery to ensure you'll still be able to find the perfect present. Baked treats, like afternoon tea or cake deliveries, are ideal for this, as they need to be delivered fresh, so won't look like a last-minute choice!
We've chosen some of our favourite items from popular brands including John Lewis & Partners, Fortnum & Mason, Master of Malt and more. The key is to carefully read when the cut-off hours are to ensure your delivery will arrive the next day – John Lewis & Partners even offers same-day delivery to selected addresses in the UK.
