(“we”, “our”, “us”)


2. Purpose of This Policy

This Refund & Return Policy explains:

  • when cancellations are possible

  • when refunds are available

  • when returns are not permitted

  • how complaints are handled

It applies to all orders placed through our website or online ordering system for delivery or collection.


3. Nature of Our Products (Important)

We sell freshly prepared, perishable food and beverages made to order.

Because of:

  • hygiene standards

  • food safety laws

  • perishability

most items cannot be returned or resold once prepared or delivered.


4. Right of Withdrawal (Cooling-Off Period)

Under EU consumer law, customers generally have a 14-day right to withdraw from online purchases.

However, legal exceptions apply.

The withdrawal right does NOT apply to:

  • freshly prepared meals

  • sushi and hot food

  • perishable goods

  • sealed food once opened

  • customised or made-to-order items

Therefore:

Food orders cannot be cancelled, returned, or refunded once preparation has begun or delivery/collection has occurred.

This is required for hygiene and consumer safety reasons.


5. Order Cancellations

Before preparation begins

You may cancel your order by contacting us immediately.

If preparation has not yet started, we will:

  • cancel the order, and

  • issue a full refund

After preparation has begun

Cancellation is not possible and refunds cannot be guaranteed, as food has already been prepared specifically for you.


6. Incorrect or Problem Orders

We will always correct genuine mistakes.

You may be eligible for a refund, replacement, or credit if:

  • wrong items were delivered

  • items are missing

  • food is damaged during delivery

  • food is unsafe or spoiled

  • order does not match confirmation

What to do:

Contact us immediately:

Email: info@sushiexpresscy.com
Phone: +357 26270506

Please provide:

  • order number

  • description of the issue

  • photos if possible

Claims should be made within 2 hours of delivery or collection.

We may refuse claims reported significantly later.


7. Quality Concerns

If you are unhappy with the quality of your food, please contact us right away.

Depending on the situation, we may offer:

  • replacement meal

  • partial refund

  • full refund

  • store credit

Resolutions are assessed case-by-case.


8. Delivery Issues

Failed delivery due to customer fault

If delivery fails because:

  • incorrect address provided

  • wrong phone number

  • customer unavailable

  • refusal to accept order

Refunds may not be issued, as food has already been prepared and dispatched.

Late deliveries

Delivery times are estimates. Minor delays due to traffic or peak periods do not automatically qualify for refunds.


9. Refund Method

Approved refunds will be issued:

  • to the original payment method only

  • not in cash (for card payments)

Processing times:

  • typically 3–10 business days

  • depending on your bank/payment provider


10. Non-Refundable Situations

Refunds will generally NOT be provided for:

  • change of mind after preparation

  • failure to collect order

  • incorrect address provided by customer

  • minor delays outside our control

  • personal taste preferences


11. Allergies and Dietary Requirements

Customers are responsible for checking allergen information before ordering.

While we take care in preparation, we cannot guarantee complete absence of allergens.

Refunds may not be issued for allergic reactions where prior notice was not provided.


12. Fraud Prevention

We reserve the right to:

  • refuse refunds where abuse is suspected

  • request evidence

  • limit repeated claims

This protects against fraudulent refund requests.
