5 of the best picnic hampers

The budget buy: ‘Picnic for 2’, PAUL

A crowd pleaser, this picnic from PAUL has everything you could want for a simple day out in the park. Its disposable checkered tablecloth and ‘Sac á Pique-nique’, a handy reusable cool bag, wins points from us in terms of functionality. Inside, the choice of artisan sandwich, salad or quiche, with sides of crisps, a soft drink and patisserie dessert gives a fun, French feel. You can either pre-order online or just choose whatever takes your fancy in store. At such a reasonable price, you can’t possibly go wrong.
