FAQs


I didn’t receive an order confirmation email?

We will send you an order confirmation to the email address given at the checkout, this should arrive shortly after your order has been completed.

If you can’t locate the email, please double check your junk/spam folder. To prevent this happening in the future, you can add us to your safe senders list — we promise not to spam you!


Why isn't your website showing next day delivery?

Whilst we always make sure to show you all our shipping options available. If the next day delivery option isn't available, that means that unfortunately, it cannot be fulfilled at this time. This could be to do with your delivery destination, a specific product, delivery delays or you might have missed the cut off time. If this is a matter of urgency, please do not hesitate to drop us an email at info@irishdrinkshop.com or call us on 01 675 9744.


Do the bottles come in their own box?

Sometimes! We strive to photograph all our products as accurately as possible at the Irish Drink Shop, some products do come with extra packaging and this will be included if this is the case. However, if there is no accompanying box, this means that we do not have one to go with the bottle.


When will the product I want come back in stock?

Whilst we try to make sure that as long as our suppliers have a bottle, we'll keep it in stock. Sometimes products can be listed as out of stock, meaning that we are expecting this to come in shortly. If you are in a hurry for a particular product, please don't hesitate to contact info@irishdrinkshop.com and we'll see if we can make this possible. Product listed as discontinued? Unfortunately, this means that we cannot get this back in, however, we like to keep this available for our archive, enabling people to research older bottlings and limited editions.


I didn’t receive a tracking number?

With orders placed before 4pm Mon-Thurs we will endeavour to send a tracking link on the same day, however, on the odd occasion this could 1 or 2 business days. For orders placed after this time, please wait until the next business day to your tracking link (or a further day during busy periods). If you have still not received your tracking number, please get in touch at info@irishdrinkshop.com and we'll get the sorted for you!


There is an error with my delivery?

Sometimes mistakes happen (rarely, thankfully!) when packing orders. If there is a mistake or a beer missing, please contact us at info@irishdrinkshop.com and we’ll get this rectified for you.


My delivery isn’t here yet?

For everything you need to know about your order, please follow your tracking number email. We aim to always get your order to you on time, but sometimes there are circumstances out with our control — weather, Covid-19, Christmas deliveries etc — which can lead to a higher rate of delays with our delivery partner UPS. We work closely with our delivery partner to ensure that these delays are minimised where possible. If you are still concerned about your order, then please get in touch with us at info@irishdrinkshop.com
