Valentine was patient, friendly & professional in changing my order completely from last week. Food excellent also!
All of the meals that I have tried have been exceptional. I will order most of them again. One was too spicy for me.
Hi Fay, I'm happy to hear about your experience with us. In the meantime, be sure to visit our menu and view the indicator tags below our meals to know which ones are spicy or not. We hope you can order again soon!
Meals arrived on time and were all very tasty! There are lots of choices and I would highly recommend this service.

Excellent food. Freshly has a wide variety of choices and they taste great.
Hi there, I'm so happy to hear about your experience with us. Thanks for being part of the Freshly fam!
I recently had a stroke and preparing dinner for my husband is difficult if not impossible. Freshly going to rescue the dinner hour at our home! Hopefully my husband will like all the recipes.
Hi Sharon, we're so happy to cook for you! Thanks for being part of the Freshly fam!
I love your meals, but have a problem getting rid of all of the packaging, which makes me think twice about ordering.
Hi Paula, I'll be sure to pass along all of your feedback and concerns. We're constantly looking for alternative packaging methods that are more eco-friendly and easy to dispose of. In the meantime, we appreciate using the recycling instructions included on our packaging. Thank you for your patience with us!
I have nothing but praises for Freshly. I enjoy the taste, quality, and overall service Freshly offers.

Affordable prices, delicious healthy food. Some dishes are a little smaller than usual for the price but majority is good and filling.
Hi Katerina, thanks for sharing your feedback! I'll be sure to pass along your thoughts to our chefs as we're always seeking to improve. Thank you for being part of the Freshly fam!
I have never been disappointed with a meal!
I have my favorites but I often try new ones.
Hi Glenda, I'm so happy to hear about your experience with us. Thank you for being part of the Freshly fam!
Its so reassuring knowing when I get home after work that I have yummy meals ready to go to fit my busy lifestyle.
Hi Daniel, thank you so much for the rating and for recommending us! We're so happy to cook for you!
I love the service but i do think it is a little too expensive for some of the selections when you are on the 4 meal plan. Example: The steak entree is worth the price but the ones made with diced chicken thighs and rice are definitely over priced. I know alot goes into the shipping costs and it comes extremely well packaged and the ice packs are always still frozen so the meals arrive very cold!
They are super convenient! I love not having to worry about what to cook. This is the best part! But most of the meals are VERY high in fat (25-40g) and i dont want to eat that many high fat meals per week. Still a great service for people with very little time who dont like cooking!
Hi Dana, I understand that budgeting is important when it comes to food, and so we've created a friend referral program that can get you $20 off your next 2 orders for every friend that you refer to sign up! In light of this, I'll be sure to share your feedback with our team as we're always seeking to improve. Thank you for writing about us!
Overall I think me meals are pretty good. I've been trying to make the calories fit into my WW points but they all seem to be to high in calorie, sugar, sodium and saturated fats. I would suggest more low carb, low calorie options for those with dietary restrictions.
I have used Freshly for 3 weeks (18) meals and find it a convenient way of preparing meals during a busy schedule working from home. I would be interested in seeing a desert menu ;)
We have been very pleased with the quality of the meals.
The selection of meals has been good but there seems to be an over dependence on chicken entrees.
Would like to see more variety in the menu. In particular we would like to see fish entrees added to the menu - such as salmon, shrimp, crab cakes and trout.
Hi Michael, thanks for rating us! I truly understand your concerns, but we're planning to rotate our menu again soon so definitely keep an eye out for new meals you'd enjoy. Thanks again!
I have used the Freshly service for over a year. It is very easy to navigate your meal elections. There is a good selection of choices for meals and the food has been tasty. I use the service as a way to make sure I have a healthy lunch curing the work week. I wish there were options for different delivery days, right now they only deliver to my area on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I also sent Freshly meals to my father in law while he is was going through a chemo treatment. He really appreciated the fact it provided a meal that he could eat over a few days. The meals are easy, fresh, healthy and the app is easy to navigate.
Hi Laurie, thank you so much for rating us! I'm truly happy to hear that you and your dad are enjoying, and I'll be sure to share your feedback with our team. Thank you for being part of the Freshly fam!
We are really enjoying and benefiting from the meals provided by Freshly. Enjoy the flavors and combinations and a better service than what we came from. The instructions are easy to follow and meals are nutricious with lots of options and variables. Thank you so much, my wife has started gaining weight and looking forward to meal time. Also, the budget is much happier and the deliveries can be depended on. Meal selection is user friendly and the fact that you are always bringing new recipes to the table, so to speak, varying meats, carbs, and fiber is a wonderful option. I would recommend adding salads, if possible.
Hi Jerome, thanks for rating us! I'm happy to hear about your experience, and while we don't offer meal-customizations at this time, I'll be sure to share your thoughts with our chefs as we're always seeking to improve. Thanks for being part of the Freshly fam!
Hi John, thanks for rating us! I hope you'll continue to order and enjoy!
We buy these meals for my husband to take to work. He does construction. They stay cool in his cooler and he heats them with a portable oven.
Hi Marilyn, we're so happy to cook for you and your husband! Thanks for being a part of Freshly!
It's nice every other week to let someone else cook for us.
Hi Lindee, we're so happy to cook for you! Thanks for being part of the Freshly fam!
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.
