Wow excellent quick service 👍
Came across this company and thought I'd place an order for sunflower hearts that I would normally order online from another well known site . Wow glad I did delivery within two days of ordering competitive prices and will definitely be using this company in future very impressed
Utterly reliable
I always use Croston Mill for my bird seed supplies. An excellent company to do business with. Fast delivery and quality products. All the birds love the sunflower hearts, and the squirrels take their share too. Our resident flock of goldfinches don't bother migrating in the winter any more, which brings a touch of colour to the garden all year round.
After 25 years of good relations it's now a fail!
OH and I are at risk from Covid. We've bought all our wild bird food supplies from the Cornmill for 25 years and usually spend around £40 a fortnight. I originally bought online for a week or so but a member of staff noticed I was a local villager and said that delivery would be free and that she would add a product to compensate for the national delivery charge. I was really pleased and started to ring in my orders. We even had a laugh on the phone in a chatty way.Then, all of a sudden, I was told by a newish member of staff that I would have to pay the national delivery rate. When I explained the situation she begrudgingly agreed to the previous situation. When my delivery arrived it was by a stranger who was actually verbally abusive in that he SHOUTED at me "This is the last time - next time you pay up or collect it yourself" He was very aggressive. Since then I haven't bought a single item from them. I wouldn't have minded if it had been explained nicely but the two members of staff I encountered were pretty nasty. It's a real shame, after all these years that the previously wonderful customer service appears to have disappeared.

Excellent company
Croston corn mill is the only company I can purchase the Allen and Page Pot Bellied Pig Feed from here in Ireland for a reasonable delivery fee. The feed is very good quality, according to my pigs who go mad for it, and the delivery timeframe is excellent, I ordered on a Wednesday and had received the feed by Friday. 5 star company. Thank you! :)

Just purchased sunflower hearts and 2 JJ feeders. Arrived on time in good condition and the Gold Finches love the hearts. Had an account with Croston a few years ago they gave excellent service then has they do now. Everything you need for feed wild birds.
Another excellent experience with…
Another excellent experience with Croston Corn Mill Ltd. Their staff are very helpful on the telephone and you feel that your custom is important to them, not like other well known bird food suppliers.
A great range of products
A great range of products, well priced and quickly delivered. I'm sorry I didn't find you earlier, but am pleased to support a local company. It's a pleasure to deal with you and look forward to next time.
Never Again
Queried today why I had not received my order which was dispatched 23.05.20. Was told it had been sent to the wrong person. If I hadn’t got in touch with them I would never have received my goods even though the payment had been taken from my account.

Excellent product. Excellent Service.
As always delivered as stated. Very helpful quick to respond to questions. Premium Wild bird seed. Excellent quality. It must be as I have gone through 20kg in 1 month. The birds love it.
Excellent service
Ordered late pm Thursday, expected delivery Mon or later due to the CV19 crisis. Products arrived Friday lunchtime with reliable carrier. Well but not excessively packaged at a reasonable price. Will definitely use again.
Shockingly excellent bird food
Shockingly excellent product, price, delivery costs and amazingly speedy delivery. The starlings in my garden are happy again and only waited a day for their favourite food: mealworms.. I will definitely shop here again.
Highly recommend
Excellent service with excellent products, third time I’ve used them , highly recommend
Excellent service
Placed my order yesterday and it arrived today exactly between the times stated.
Packaging was good and the goods were in excellent condition.
Exceptional company
I am a horse owner and in light of the current times equine feed stores have closed. I was searching online to look for a secure website, that accepts paypal, uses a recognised courier and most importantly sells horse feed for an acceptable price.
I discovered croston corn mills and it met all of my requirements.
This company is still taking on new customers as well as fulfilling the needs of there loyal ones. A lot of websites i came across were not accepting new customers such as myself. Or the delivery time scale was atrocious in light of Covid 19 restrictions. Crofton corn mills had a really quite exceptional estimated delivery date given the circumstances and compared to their competitors and it was free delivery on certain items too.
As of now, (i am awaiting for my items to be delivered- but i am kept up to date at every stage via the courier website, app and text message), I highly recommend thus far.
Update:
Items arrived expeditiously with no hassle. The courier was as stated and the delivery date. In this current climate I am overwhelmed that I received my items next day! I will be using this company for all my horse feeds during this lock down.
