This is my first week of using freshly and it has been great so far. I look forward to other meals to be as good as the ones iPad.
Overall a good experience. Dad is 90 however hard to please. Change up that menu more ofter will make him a happier camper.
Hi Cathy, thanks for your feedback. I'm happy to hear your dad is enjoying! We currently update our menu with one new meal once a week!
John P. Was so helpful and straightened out the confusion we were having with our subscription.
Wow--this is awesome! I'm pleased to hear about your experience and how John was able to assist you. I'd be more than happy to share your kind words with him! Thank you so much rating us and for being part of the Freshly fam!
When I heat the food in Microwave at work, hungry coworkers pop up asking what is this?! This is the easiest way for a person who wants to eat healthy with little or no time.
We appreciate your fantastic review! We're pleased to hear that you're enjoying the convenience of our service! Thanks again for the rating and for being part of the Freshly fam!
I live alone and don't want meals for two. I tried the ones where you get the ingredients and have to cook and I didn't care for that. Freshly meals are made for one. Just nuke and eat! Very tasty and quite filling. The only thing I don't like is most of them are somewhat to very high in carbs.
Thanks for sharing this, Leslie! Our meals range from about 16-60 grams. We'll be sure to share your feedback with our kitchen! Thanks again for the review and if you have any other comments or suggestion that you'd like to share with us, I'd be glad to hear them!
My daughter gave me a gift of four Freshly meals for Christmas. I attempted to use the gift code in my Freshly account and expected that my order on Thurs., Dec. 24 would become the gift. This did not work. Instead, I was notified of a $51.95 charge to my credit card on Dec. 24. I contacted support and used the chat feature to report my trouble. Bryan came into the chat, requested my gift code, researched my issue, and recommended a credit for $51.95 to my credit card to resolve this trouble. That satisfied me.
Thanks for sharing this amazing feedback, Michael! We're happy to hear that we're a great fit! I hope to hear more feedback from you soon!
The fresh cooked food is preferred by my husband and me. The only drawback I have is with the packaging. The box of 9 meals is so heavy; because of ice packs, that I cannot lift it. I hope the company reads this experience and makes so sort of change to keep their delicious food cold.
Thanks for sharing this, Kay! We do our very best to ensure the freshness of our meals by packaging them securely and ensuring they are nice and cool during the shipping process but rest assured, we'll be sure to share your thoughts with our team!
Only two weeks in so still getting a feel for the service. Portions are about 15 to 20% smaller than preferred.
We appreciate your honest review, Michael! Our portion sizes are 12 to 15 ounces (averaging 13.6 ounces). I'd be more than happy to share your feedback with our kitchen! If you have any other comments that you'd like to share with us, I'd be glad to hear them!
Always positive customer service interactions and my family of five loves the meals. Great portions as well and healthy!
Wow-- this is what we love to hear! We're delighted to hear that we've been a great fit for your family, Michele! Keep sharing Freshly love!
Excellent meals
However, the second order was not the order I ordered.
It was identical to the first.
Will be gone for the rest of the summer so will reorder in the fall. Thank you
Thanks for sharing this, Sherry! We're happy to hear that you're enjoying the meals and we're thrilled to cook for you again soon! I've also reached out with you through private message. Thanks again for the rating and for being part of the Freshly fam!
The food is delicious and meets my dietary restrictions. The system works so easily and if there is a delivery problem (or any problem), which is very rare, communication from Freshly is immediate and complete.
We appreciate your amazing review! We're excited to hear how our service is working out nicely for you! I hope we can continue to impress you with our meals and our excellent service!
Great meals, innovative, fantastic customer service
It sounds like we're a perfect fit! We'll work diligently to keep this impression. Looking forward to hearing more feedback from you soon!
The service and meals have been very good. Deliver to my college student and very helpful for those with a busy schedule.
We appreciate your 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear how you've been pleased by the overall convenience of our service! I hope you continue to enjoy!
Christopher was so helpful with changing our dinner choice! Very much appreciated his knowledge on how to change order! Thanks
We're so happy to hear that Christoper did a great job assisting you! We'll be sure to share this feedback with him!
The meals are delicious and taste like they were just prepared.
Wow! Thank you for this amazing feedback! We will always do our best to keep this impression. Continue spreading the Freshly love!
We have enjoyed the meal selection at Freshly. The meals arrive on time and are packed nicely! Love the cauliflower pasta! We have tried a variety of meals and have loved them all!
Thanks for the Freshly love, Victoria! I'm happy our meals and meal selection have made an impression. I hope you keep sharing more feedback, because we'd love to hear more!
Freshly is the easiest to prepare of all the delivered meal plans I have tried
This is awesome to hear, Thomas! It sounds like we're a pretty good fit!
Hi. Freshly is the best. Helps me with healthy eating, weight loss, less stress, everything. I wish we could get back to varying the meals a bit more, but I get it, things are moving at a different pace right now. I'll settle for Cod Cakes coming back! Thanks all.
Thanks for sharing this, Jack! We love hearing that you enjoy our meals, and we'll be sure to talk to our chefs on introducing more new dishes soon!
After cancelling after my first order, I realized I was missing the unique vegetable tastes and have reactivated my account and looking forward to more new tastes.
We're so happy to be cooking for you again, Carol! Thanks for being part of the Freshly family!
I'm enjoying these meals so much... and not having to cook. Food is super fresh, with more vegetables than I'd normally eat. Wish I could afford more but my situation will change soon. I tried to get my sister to subscribe but it seems she previously did and tired of the meals. Are they different in California? What she described doesn't sound anything like my meals. Anyway, thanks for real flavor.
Thanks for sharing this, Delia! I'm happy to hear you've enjoyed our meals, and I'll be passing along your thoughts and concerns to our team.
Freshly tip: Make sure to take advantage of our Friend Referral program as well. That's $20 off each week, for two weeks --for both you and your friend!
Answer: Hi Marc, Thanks for your inquiry! At this time we change one meal per week, typically. We will either remove an item and replace with something new, update the recipe on a current item or just add an item without removing one. As we continue to grow we will have plans to offer even more variety as well!
Answer: Hi Steven, Thank you for your interest in Freshly! We are a weekly subscription service, so you would be charged for, and delivered meals on a weekly basis. However, you can select to skip weeks, or cancel your subscription at anytime! These changes would just need to be made prior to your weekly deadline, which is outlined in your Welcome Email, Reminder Emails, and in your Meal Planner. I hope this helps!
Answer: Our meals are prepared and shipped out from our kitchen in Phoenix.:-) For Arizona deliveries we use FedEx.
Answer: The delivery window they give us is between 9am and 9pm. We package the meals to be safe for 2 days transit time, plus safe to sit outside for up to 12 hours upon delivery.:-)
Answer: Hi Nancy! We do not cook meals based on other programs' guidelines at this time. We're not overly concerned with calorie counts, but more concerned with where calories come from. Our meals are generally high protein, high healthy fat, low carb, low sugar. We use unprocessed ingredients free from hormones or added sugars, and never use chemical preservatives. Please let me know if I can answer any other questions at this time!
Answer: Hi Shawn W, That doesn't sound right! Please reach us at [email protected] so we can take a closer look at this!
Answer: Hi Joyce, Thank you so much for reaching out to us here at Freshly! I'd like to apologize for the delayed response! First and foremost, I'd like to inform you that we're a weekly subscription service, which means you'll receive meals weekly, and get charged weekly as well. Here are the steps to follow while signing up: 1 - Add your email address and zip code in the sign-up box on our homepage. ( www.Freshly.com) 2 - Pick your meal plan. Just keep in mind that our meals have a shelf life of about 5 days unless frozen. 3 - Pick your delivery day from the available dates! The specific day of the week will be your weekly delivery day unless changed. 4 - Select your delicious meals from our 30+ selections. 5 - Add your contact info, payment details, and delivery address.
Answer: Hi Gayle, Thank you for reaching out to us here at Freshly! You can certainly reheat our meals in a conventional oven, however, our current meal containers are not safe for the oven or stove-top, so you'll have to transfer your food to heat it up. First, preheat your oven to 350° F. Transfer your food to an oven-safe dish (don't forget to scrape the sauce out of the tray!) and cover the top in tin foil. Heat for 25-35 minutes, remove foil, and let sit 3-5 minutes, then transfer to your choice of plate or bowl and enjoy! (Keep in mind, heating times are approximate. You'll want to reheat the meal to an inner temperature of 165° F.)
Answer: Hi Angela, Thank you for reaching out to us here at Freshly! We use third-party carriers for our deliveries, such as FedEx in her area! We can deliver Tuesday-Saturday in Southern Illinois--deliveries can occur between 8am-9pm depending on the carriers route for the day. While carrier delays are out of the norm, weather-related issues, road closures, driver confusion, etc. can wreak havoc. We have a dedicated delivery team that works directly with our carriers to ensure successful deliveries, and we're always sure to compensate when delays arise. We certainly hope this helps! To view a list of currently available deliveries, you can enter your zip code at www.freshly.com!
Answer: I've been getting mine in on time, but I assume as with all packages going through USPS, UPS, and FedEx right now, things have been backed up since COVID and only getting worse. So it's not Freshly's fault even if they aren't delivered on time.
