Throughout the site, the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Hess Street Foods. By accessing our site and/or purchasing something from us, you engage in our “Service” and agree to be bound by these Terms, including any additional policies referenced herein.

If you do not agree to all terms and conditions of this agreement, you may not access the website or use any services.

By using this site, you confirm that you are at least the age of majority in your state or province of residence.

You may not use our products for any unlawful or unauthorized purpose, nor may you violate any laws in your jurisdiction while using the Service.

You must not transmit any worms, viruses, malware, or destructive code.

A breach of any of these Terms may result in immediate termination of your access to our Services.


3. Product Information & Availability

We proudly produce small-batch food products inspired by family tradition and crafted with care. Because of the nature of artisan food production, availability, ingredients, packaging, and appearance may vary slightly from product photos or descriptions.

We reserve the right to:

  • Limit quantities of any products or services
  • Discontinue products at any time
  • Refuse or cancel orders at our discretion
  • Correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions related to pricing or product information

We make every effort to display product information accurately, but we do not guarantee all descriptions, images, or other content are error-free.


4. Pricing & Payment

All prices are listed in U.S. dollars.

Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue products or services at any time without liability.

Payments are securely processed through third-party payment providers integrated with Shopify.


5. Shipping Policy

We currently ship within the United States only.

Orders are generally processed within 2–3 business days. Standard shipping typically takes 5–7 business days after processing.

We may ship orders using UPS, USPS, FedEx, DHL Express, or other carriers as needed.

  • Orders over $35 may qualify for free shipping
  • Shipping costs for orders under qualifying thresholds are calculated at checkout

Shipping timelines are estimates and are not guaranteed. Hess Street Foods is not responsible for delays caused by carriers, weather events, supply chain disruptions, or incorrect shipping information provided by customers.

Tracking information will be emailed once your order ships.


6. Refund & Return Policy

Because we sell perishable and specialty food products, all sales are final.

We do not accept returns, refunds, or exchanges once an order has been placed and shipped.
