Get Ready for the Most Stylish of Picnics

The word ‘picnic’ originally stems back to 1794, exactly 100 years after ‘pique-nique’ first appeared in the French language. Since then picnics have a been a summer staple.

The initial concept of a picnic was seen to be a fashionable affair whereby each guest would contribute to the day. The idea hasn’t changed from its traditional roots, with picnics continuing to be one of the most loved things to plan with family and friends.

With summer here and August Bank Holiday approaching, we thought we’d share insights into some of our best-selling picnic baskets to help you make that all-important buying decision.
