Food is very tasty and easy to prepare
I so wanted this to work. I was getting bored off the recipes on Hello Fresh and Gousto and as a vegetarian this seemed perfect as I would get more choice. The food came on time , ingredients fresh and generous portions and loved the Spotify playlist (genius touch!). All a perfect start but after my 2nd week I’m cancelling as to be honest it’s just not tasty. The ingredients they mix in recipes just give it a weird taste. I questioned this as I was putting tamari and walnuts in a gnocchi dish. The combo is just not working, time to get a new chef perhaps! Good luck though it’s a great concept.
Amazing meals! Very easy and the most freshest ingredients! Even comes with a spotify playlist!

Finally, a meal box that has amazing vegan recipes AND doesn’t use excessive amounts of plastic packaging! I really look forward to my Grubby box arriving, the meals are quick and simple (unlike some other brands I’ve tried) and, more importantly, DELICIOUS! Would 100% recommend.
Ordered a box, five meals for two people, after receiving a special offer & I’ve never been so impressed! Me and partner are vegetarian, but like to eat vegan when we can and the grubby meals have made it so much easier & less boring! Highly recommend!
Our daughter and son-in-law have been going through a very busy time, new flat and new jobs and so we treated them to a few weeks of Grubby. They absolutely loved it, outstanding quality, great variety, tasty and delivery was very efficient and punctual and overall is represents very good value for money.
We are loving our first box so far even though we are only one recipe in! It was super easy to make, took 30 mins with a 3 year old intervening. Manageable amount of washing up too. My daughter enjoyed smelling the spices and the ginger for the curry. She wasn't fussed to try it even though the portion sizes allowed for a good portion for us and a small for her. But she isn't usually fussed about eating a hot dinner so it's not a reflection on the food. We have really enjoyed the first meal and can't wait to try the next. Am also very much looking forward to next week's recipes! We are not vegan but looking to cut down on cheese and meat. This seems like an excellent way to do it. I've told my 2 vegan friends about it. I can also see me getting back into cooking this way which is something I've really struggled with for a long time which leads to too many takeaways plus mum guilt, not a good combo! I've just read about your sustainable or mostly recyclable/compostable packaging which is a massive plus. I didn't realise that this time so will be recycling the spice pots etc from now on. Love that you don't send loads of those gel ice packs to keep it cool either. If I've booked the delivery for a certain day I'll be in so no need for all that plasticy toxic frozen gel stuff. Price is super reasonable with the introductory discount and at about £56 for a week of 5 dinners for 2.5 people when it goes to full price is don't think that's bad considering I'll be less inclined to order takeaways at £30/40 a time. I like you can upgrade to get free delivery for a flat monthly or annual fee as well. Have chosen monthly and if all good will invest in the annual option. Thanks for making a great product and I hope this works out for us after trying quite a few kits like this. Fingers crossed!
I liked the concept of a plant based only recipe service and that they have a charitable element. I have used them a few times over the last year and been reasonably happy but with a few niggles from some of the recipes, delivery, quality of produce, missing information on use by dates. I decided to give them another go recently but unfortunately after my latest experience I have decided to avoid them for good as they charge you and send you meals without your authorisation. A few weeks back I orderdd a box for 28th oct but put a pause on the delivery for 4th Nov as I thought I probably wouldn't want a recipe box that week. I logged in about a week before the 4th just to see what was on the menu, as nothing interested me then I made no changes. I then received an email on 1st November telling me that I was getting a box delivered on 4th November! How can they do this? I did nit click on anything to reactive my subscription and I did not select meals and check out, so I am at a complete loss as to how they can do this. As far as I am concerned they have stolen my money and I will be taking this further. I contacted Grubby on 1st November as soon as I saw the email but so far have not had a very helpful response. I would avoid this company to ensure you don't get scammed in a similar way! I don't know why they can't be like other recipe services and have the option to just order for the weeks you want and to also not charge you unless you actively ask for a subscription to be reactived or check out an order. It's appalling what they have done.
Grubby has an amazing customer service. They have helped us couple of times so far with cancellation and refund of an order. Very quick response and effective. Furthermore, their products are amazing and it help us to prevent wasting food . 10/10 for Grubby!
Love the tasty & quick recipes. Packed with flavour & more affordable than some other recipe boxes. Fun idea with a prep sound track too. Would love more recyclable ♻️ packaging. The box & bags are, but much of the plastic wrapping isn't. I know it would bump up the price but organic produce would be another bonus. My only quibbles.
I’ve been a customer of Grubby for nearly (or over !) three years now and I love the concept, products and customer service. I love it that they make it easy for me to cook homemade vegan food and make sure no food or ingredients are wasted. Grubby sends exactly what is needed and the portions are good with often leftovers for the next day’s lunch. Prices have gone up over the past years given inflation but I feel that if the prices increase further, it would make the offer far too expensive for me.
Constant change in prices.
Grubby’s plant-based menu is varied, fresh, and great quality ingredients. It’s reasonably priced too, with a low-cost pay up front delivery option. I’ve tried other food boxes, but as a vegetarian I often felt like the poor relation - with a repetitive unimaginative menu. As well as a wide range of fresh plants, Grubby offer an imaginative range of plant-based proteins including pulses, lentils, tofu and plant-based meat substitutes, which other meal box services often get wrong. I also like the ethos of this company. If there is a hiccup (which is very rare) they are responsive and quick to put it right. Thoroughly recommend them.
By far the best for plant based meals. Great value for money, huge choice, tasty and it even shows calorie content. Perfect for weekday meals when you’re managing a work-life balance. Been using Grubby for a while now and already have the next month ordered 🙌🏻
