Alfresco Emporium

Hamptons style/coastal inspired homewares store, which also has a kitchen section, children's toys and clothes, even a cafe - a real emporium. Well worth a visit for anyone with an interest in interiors.

Purchased a few “quality” items of furniture including dining chairs. Had some issues with the chairs. Was informed their products do not have a warranty. Stuck with 10 chairs that are just for show as they become loose if you sit on them. Go elsewhere that can guarantee their merchandise.

A nice shop with homeware, furniture with a lovely cafe, and so many unique and interesting products to look at

Absolutely love this shop. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the Northern Beaches area. If not their online shopping is a very efficient way of purchasing those must have items.

Just purchased the Grand Manhattan pre-lit Christmas tree for $1600 and the lights don’t work. Was told by staff that a lot of them have faulty adapters. Really disappointing for such an expensive tree. Poor quality control Alfresco.

Great selection of homewares, staff very helpful, super flowers section.

Love, love, love their dark brown rattan range. Have brought serviette holder, mid size trays and small slimline trays. When ordered mid 2022 small trays weren't in stock and was asked if wanted refund or to wait and I was ok to wait. Then towards end of year contact mobile of person been dealing with to find out what going on with trays and no response so yesterday (9.1) contacted via email and response brilliant. Said person I'd been dealing with had left but trays were in stock and would be sent out immediately and they were because I got them express post today. Thank you Alfresco would buy from you in future.

Bought 2 beautiful large expensive Xmas candles with 3 wicks prior to Christmas. Tried lighting them on Xmas Eve- both the third wick refused to burn. I called this morning to tell them that there must be a fault and was happy to return them to the shop for them to try and resolve. Basically was told we’ve never had this happen before and that they couldn’t do anything to help me. I have been a great supporter of this shop over the years but sadly today will be avoiding shopping there ever again.

I am very disappointed with the lack of communication and customer service.I have purchased a set of boxes (2 boxes), but only one has arrived. After chasing the store, they said one of the boxes were out of stock.This should have been communicated prior the delivery. I ended up paying a delivery fee more expensive than the single items delivered and they don't want to refund me as requested.Now I have one box which by itself it was not what I wanted in the first place.They stopped responding my emails.I would not purchase there again and I would not recommend purchasing online with them
