Our verdict on Waitrose
Waitrose brings online grocery shopping to its website and app, with home delivery and Click & Collect at selected stores. It suits shoppers who want to browse and build a trolley, repeat previous orders, manage favourites and choose a collection or delivery slot. Available delivery times include one-hour slots, while rapid ordering is offered through delivery partners in participating local zones.
The ordering tools cover more than placing a basket: shoppers can use multi-search, add notes for shoppers, control substitutions, and amend or cancel pending orders in the app. Delivery Pass options are offered monthly, for six months or for twelve months. Each covers up to one available grocery delivery slot per day at no extra delivery cost, subject to slot availability and a £40 minimum spend. Standard home delivery has a slot-dependent charge; Click & Collect is free subject to minimum spend. A pass is for eligible delivery slots rather than a requirement to place an order.
Waitrose connects its rapid grocery option to Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat, so it may suit shoppers seeking a faster route when those services cover their area. That option is fulfilled through the third-party apps, rather than replacing scheduled supermarket delivery or collection. Choose Waitrose if its grocery range and slot booking fit your routine and you value order changes or collection; consider another option if you need rapid delivery regardless of local zone or want delivery slots without a minimum spend.
