3 weeks of waiting without delivery estimates, grubby 'very sorry' but nothing changed and 3rd box wasn't even delivered on Friday. Poor service and cancelling now- at least other meal delivery companies I have used have responded appropriately
I’m not really sure what to make of Grubby- we had 3 boxes, recipes look fantastic online but I would say we threw 50% of them away because we just didn’t like the taste or they tasted really weird. The harissa paste they seem to use very frequently is just vile and we stopped ordering recipes with this in. Had a few bits that weren’t that fresh but was offered generous refunds for these. Customer service was generally really good, just think the recipes themselves are not for us, so sticking to our previous delivery box instead. It’s also pretty pricey compared to other similar boxes

Grubby provide a great range of options every week with fresh organic products and good portion sizing, I'm very happy to of found this company - thank you!
I really like your service/recipes/quality of produce but I find it really aggravating that you cannot select dietary requirements for the automatic selection of recipes.
The reason I use your service is that I do not have time to plan my meals and am too occupied to do the meal selection (if you
send email reminders then I miss them).
I am gluten intolerant so it is annoying to have gluten based recipes arrive when I have forgotten to select. I feel it would be a very simple amendment to allow nut/gluten based recipes to be omitted from the pre selection so they customers so not have food arrived that they cannot eat.
Please consider these changes as it would make a 1 stars review into 5 stars as I really struggle to eat fresh foods in a week without Grubby but am a bit frustrated with having to buy alternatives because there is not an option to state the foods I can't eat.
We have been using Grubby for 2 years, and it is one of the good decisions we took starting our life in London. Grubby is our weekly certainty that we will eat our veggies, with qualitative ingredients (hard to find in London), no transformed ingredients, and just great recipes. It does take some time to get used to the recipe writing style, but you do get used (and end up beating the recipe recommended time).
I normally rate Grubby but they seem to have gone down hill recently. Food was delivered without any cool packs inside on one of the hottest days of the years. Some of the produce quality wasn't as good as recent orders. One of the recipes (I think it might be a new one) was poorly written, not clear when you had to add items to the pan. The thing that was most annoying about this delivery was that the packaging wasn't great. A pack of tomatoes had got squashed in the box and leaked, I pulled them out of the box without realising this had happened and they consequently dripped over one of my kitchen chairs and stained the upholstery.
I just got a request to give feedback so I have but I'm sure I had already been asked to feedback via another platform a couple of weeks ago and gave similar comments but not had a response from Grubby.
I hope they improve and return to the good service they used to provide.
I've been getting Grubby boxes for a while now, and I have to say I absolutely love them. There's been times when I've accidently forgot to choose my recipes and I've received random recipes, but it's turned out to be good because it's recipes that I wouldn't have usually gone for but enjoyed regardless. As someone who is plant-based, I much prefer Grubby over others like Hello Fresh!
We've been so impressed with the variety, quality and taste of the meals. And my husband especially has commented he is presently surprised by the portion sizes! It's the most I've looked forward to dinner in ages and as a new flexatarian sometimes lacking inspiration Grubby is arming me with lots of new favourite recipes for my recepie book
Excellent service. My partner we t vegan a year ago and ever since we have struggled with what to cook. Grubby has taken that stress away and broadened our variety of meals. Easy to follow recipes and wide variety of options. Save us time, stress and waste. What’s not to love
Great, tasty,convenient and I’m finally getting my husband to cook without my help. My only niggle, is that with cooking times, it doesn’t include prep time, so for a beginner, it takes longer than,say the 30 minutes suggested. Also, I’m having foods I wouldn’t normally eat.
I was always dubious of meal kits as thought they were overpriced and had tried the popular ones and got bored quickly as the veggy range was limited. I tried Grubby in February this year and have ordered every week since. I've tried meals I'd never heard off and the ingredients they use are fantastic like the 'steak' that is incredible!
I'm a complete convert and I actually enjoy cooking now. Even my carnivirous other half loves these. Would highly recommend giving it a go!
Oyster mushroom "calamari"? Really ? YES . Imaginative and incredibly tasty. Use plenty of the garlic in the aioli . Brilliant for a starter or main course. These new recipes are taking Grubby to the next level.
Food didn't arrive chilled, the ice packs were just room temperature water. Customer service was very responsive and we received a refund, however the situation didn't improve on the next delivery so we cancelled. We didn't find the recipes we tried to be very tasty.
