Love Freshly's meals - they are always fresh, delicious and most of all the price is right. Also, no cooking necessary, just heat and eat. I've been a customer for 4 years and still enjoy these meals. The customer service is exceptional, always friendly and quick response to every question or issue. Highly recommend Freshly!
I needed a code to receive a promotional price. Bella applied that for me. It was easy and pleasant texting with her. Very pleased.
The 3 star rating was due to difficulty navigating the ordering website, not with Bella

I am a wheelchair user and recently moved into my own apartment and living on my own not being able to cook is one of the issues that I have Freshly has been a welcome enhancement in my life I can find the food is good for me and taste very good and it's not outrageously expensive.

Hi Amelia, I'm happy to hear that we're able to answer your question! Thank you so much for the 5-star rating!
Jeselle was wonderful in helping me modify my upcoming delivery after the order was placed. The service is great.
Very good meats, heavy on the vegetables which are seasoned well. Limited selections though, I've never been a big fan of Italian dishes with vegetables. Would like to see Chicken parmesan with pasta or salad. Also choices on vegetables.
Hi John, thanks for sharing your feedback. I'll be sure to pass along your thoughts to our chefs. Thank you for being a part of Freshly!
So far my meals have been delicious. Only two that I didn't enjoy 100% but they were still good.
My experience has been great. I am my mom's caregiver and Freshly allows my mom to have delicious meals. It woul be great if you could add some low sodium meals as well! Thanks again for helping me take good care of my mom!
Hi Linda, I'm happy to hear about your experience with us, and we're so happy to be able to cook for you and your mother! Thank you for being a part of Freshly!
I love Feshly food, and have been pleased to learn the customer service is great too. I experienced a delivery delay (no fault of Feshly, parts of my city were shut down) and used the chat feature of the Freshly App to resolve the issue. Bella handled the issue quickly and pleasantly, immediately applying the refund and offering an additional credit. This was the first issue I've had with Freshly (after a year or so of subscriptions), and was very pleased with how easy things were to resolve. It's so nice when a good product (the meals) is paired with good service.
The food looks delicious but I can't eat meat. Christopher was a wonderful help.
Hi Wylisha, while we don't have any plant-based options at this time, it's still great to hear about your thoughts on our meals. I'll be sure to pass along your feedback to our chefs, and let them know what you think. It sure would be nice to have some vegan meals so that you can get to order from us. Thank you for rating us!
I'm so happy to know our team was able to assist you, Eric! I'll also be sure to share your kind words with Jennifer!
I have been a loyal customer of Freshly meals for the past year. Especially now... having Freshly meals delivered. On a weekly basis, to my elderly parents during a time of social distancing has been a blessing. Knowing they are getting nutritional meals delivered weekly and not having to go out, gives anyone "piece of mind". Freshly meals are not only convenient but are also delicious. Just the right portions, with just the right flavors. Thank you Freshly for your great meals and for your great customer service.
So far no real complaints
Freshly is fresh
Thank you
Thanks for the awesome rating and review, Delmar! Keep the feedback coming --we love hearing it!
I'm happy to hear this, Jeff! We're always here and happy to help!
Overall, I am very happy with the food options that Freshly provides. I have noticed that some items are rotated out, the carved turkey for example, which is one of my favorites so I hope it eventually returns to the menu. I find the packaging my six meals comes in to be somewhat cumbersome and all the plastic contained within wasteful. I hope it is recyclable, and obviously I know the meals need to be refrigerated for transport, but I wish in the future a more streamlined and smaller footprint delivery box method can be achieved.
Thank you for sharing this, Robert! We completely understand your concerns in regards to packaging, and it's sustainability. We're always looking for ways to improve, and in this case, for ways to incorporate more eco-friendly materials. In the mean time, we do ask that you use the recycling instructions on the packaging itself.
If there's more feedback you'd like to share, we'd love to hear it! Connect with us over at [email protected].
The food at Freshly is really good and the price is better than all of the other companies I've looked at. The customer service is top notch and they are always on top of things. I'd recommend Freshly to anyone who does not like cooking and wants something fast and tasty to eat.
Thanks for the Freshly love, Todd! This is why we do what we do --customers like you. If you're recommending us, 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!

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!

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.
