There are better options out there.
BoozeBud has an ok range to choose from but their prices are really not that competitive. I decided to order from them due to them carrying a particular whisky which was out of stock everywhere else.
Delivery was several days late but due to the current circumstances this was expected. The only problem was however was that they had packed the bottles laying down before sending them which resulted in the corks becoming soaked, resulting in leakage during postage. Approximate loss was from neck level of the bottle to the shoulder during postage - at least 2 drams worth.
Everywhere else I have ordered whisky from sends their bottles upright. Big mistake guys. Until you can fix this I won't order or recommend ordering from you again.

After a lot of troubles BoozeBud solved all the issues.
I received everything I order and the prices are very good.
If BozzeBud will improve the order management and the delivery delays (I recon due also to the COVID-19 issue at moment) you will be a 5 star service!

Good concept but at the mercy of Auspost
Ordered two cases of beers that took a while to come. I had to pick it up from the post office which took 3 tries to get everything. The box was destroyed with no attempt at plastic wrapping or anything. Products are also close to best before date. I'd rather just pick it up from a local seller then have to deal with the stress of post. Such a shame, might have actually used it if it went well.
Hey Brian ,
Apologise for this, our courier services do sometimes take quite some time despite our efforts to get the order out on time....

I ordered a mixed case of 16 craft beers from Boozebud, delivery was received within two days so I was initially happy with the fast turn around.
Unfortunately after inspecting the beers, I was disappoined to find 6 of the 16 cans were past the brewery's best before date...some by as much as 6 months!
Boozebud should not sell out of date stock and certainly not without declaring it up front or offering the customer a discount or substitution. Very disappointed.
Wrong beers, lost money, no reply
I ordered a 4 pack of the Pirate Life Mosiac IPA, they delivered a 6 pack of the Pirate Life Pilsner. This product is $8 cheaper. I emailed them about this on Wednesday, it is now Sunday. No reply.
Prompt delivery but missing items
I ordered a selection of wines and selected next day delivery. Delivery was within the delivery window I selected, they stated that my items would be delivered in 2 seperate boxes. I got one large box instead with two of the most expensive wines missing. I bought three reds advertised as from 2014 but they delivered those from 2018. The only way to contact them is through emailing their customer service which doesn't even bother responding. I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing...shocking stuff
great!
good service at a reasonable price - delivery was quick with no problems at all...
good beer would def recommend them to others as compared to uncle dan . go for it... awesome

Good but not perfect
Received my beer and wine as described and on time, however I do live in a metropolitan area. I did contact the customer service team via email and they responded promptly to my queries but couldn't guarantee my delivery would arrive in time for NYE even though I had ordered it a week before. If you're in no rush to receive your drinks this this is the way to go. Delivery didn't require signature so you do run the risk of your boxes being stolen from your doorstep and there is no option when paying for a signature on delivery. Postage price was reasonable also.
Quick Arrival
Ordered a case of Waltzin Ma Pilsner which arrived a couple of days after ordering. The problem was only half of my order arrived. The only way to contact them is through a live chat which seems a bit odd. In contrast to some of the other reviews when I was contacted, Harry was very helpful, apologised for the problem, refunded me for the beer which did not arrive and provided a $30 credit.
I was happy enough with how I was treated and would just recommend that an email and phone number be added to make contact easier.
I will purchase again through Booze Bud.
needs improving
Both my husband and our neighbour, who each have an Advent Calendar from Boozebud, are a tad disappointed in this year's offerings. Number 20, todays, they said tasted like an alcoholic Fanta. Too many fruity or citrus beers, not enough serious tasting beer.

Cheaper price fore longer delivery time
Very cheaper prices and deals. Longer delivery times. Give and take. Boozebud take longer but i am happy with the service. They also gave me a $25 credit to compensate for the delay. Really can't complain.

Great variety to choose from
I decided to check out Booze Bud as I was searching for a gift for someone and I liked how you could purchase individual bottles of beer. I took the opportunity to purchase an 8 pack of mixed craft beer. There was a sale on at the time so was happy with the price. I received the order a week later and found it to be packaged well with no damage. Generally the prices may not all be cheaper than what you can get elsewhere but they have a large variety which suited my needs.
Short delivery
I’m concerned they can’t be phoned, only email. I’m missing my spirits from order 5 parcels were said to be coming, I only received 4. Aust Post couldn’t help me even though they were to company that delivered. All I can do is send email to see where my 5th parcel is. A bit frustrating to say the least.

1993 prices! A little slow in delivery but communication ok and seem keen to keep the customer happy
I purchased 2 cases of corona and 1 case of stella = $108.94 delivered. Then ordered 1 bottle jim beam black & 1 bottle fireball = $74.60 delivered. Both orders at time of sales (black Friday I think). I have not seen pricing like that for a long time! They sent emails stating they had delays due to the number of orders at that sale time (I'm not surprised at those prices). I hadn't received items for about two weeks so I got online and enquired via the website. All deliveries made to me soon after and a $15 credit to my account for any future ...
Read moreorders. All in all, I'm pretty happy. I would suggest that if you need the products in a hurry (i.e. a party in a weeks time) maybe they are not there yet but I liked the way they handled everything and they stated that they are striving for 2-3 day deliveries (I'm Sydney CBD) so maybe they will get there in the future. With these prices they are worth a look I reckon. I will use them again for future parties but I will make sure I plan ahead.Positive experience
I purchased a beer advent calendar on the 27th November and quickly became worried when many reviews about late deliveries/bad communication came through. I did get my order on time 7 days after ordering though. Also got prompt replies to my queries.

Very very Slow
The price was great, but beware it will not come on time. Took over a week to leave the warehouse, and then aus post has taken another week and it's still not here. I got a credit for next time, however I don't think I'd use them again.

No communication, missing beer, two weeks late
Ordered beers for a present and found booze bud online. Ordering was fine, but afterwards no communication. Order delayed ‘two days’ turned into over two weeks to receive beer. Didn’t reply to any email sent and don’t have a phone number. Also ordered a dozen but only 11 bottle came with no invoice or anything to check against. Buy elsewhere. Only good this was competitive price for single beer.
No communicatiom & nonexistant delivery
Ordered on 23rd and no response to emails and no delivery - poor would like my money returned and wont use again

Slow delivery, missing products
I have used these guys before and they are usually good. However this time with all the promos it appears they can't keep up. It took 2 weeks for order to arrive and when it finally did was missing some of the order. Some of the beers were also out of date. They probably shouldn't offer any deals if they can't keep up with demand, they will lose loyal customers this way.
Very poor delivery time and service.
They are running a lot of promos to attract new customers but only realise afterwards that they can't cope with the volume of orders. I have ordered a week ago and the estimated delivery was to be in the last three days. Only today I received an email from Boozebud about "potential delays" - with no estimation or anything when I can expect the delivery.
Very poor. Avoid if you need something on time.

Dodgy, unreliable, bad service, disappointing!
They run promos but can't meet customer needs or supply and demand ie orders don't arrive in the time frame they say it will and they can't keep up with the demand with many products out of stock.
I was given a delivery period between 22nd - 26th in my initial confirmation email. At 20:30 on the 26th I got another email saying our drivers have picked up your order and it will be on its way with expected delivery 22nd - 26th!! Amateur hour
To make things worse I have photo evidence of them dodging up some prices. I was looking at getting a cer...

Don't expect in a hurry.
