Miley did a great job answering and anticipating my questions. As a result, I've gained confidence in my decision to start meal service. Thanks Miley.
I've had a couple strange mix ups with the number of meals being wrong, but the customer service is always pleasant and responsive.
I order approximately every other week, there is usually a good variety of dishes on the menu. I love most of them but I have my favorites. Definitely recommend for a quick, healthy meal, especially if you don't cook, like me!

Hi Krystal, thanks for rating us! I'm very happy to hear this. Thanks for being a part of Freshly!
I've been on a few month hiatus from meal delivery, so when I forgot to cancel this weeks subscription I just let it ride. Only the wake up the morning of delivery day and remember that I forgot to update my new delivery address. I reached out via chat to see what my options were, fully preparing myself to have to camp out at my former residence until the order was delivered so I could retrieve it (which would have definitely been a hassle, considering I don't drive). Pheter was able to get my new address updated in FedEx's system and reroute my package to me! What a life saver!
Very good experience with Peter. Prompt response and he solved the issue quickly.

Hi Teri, thank you so much for the 5 stars!
I signed back up after a hiatus and didn't get my promo code or discount. Rome quickly addressed the issue and applied my discount.
Hi John, thanks for rating us! I'm glad to hear that we were able to help you out, and thank you again for giving us another try! Thank you for being a part of Freshly!
Was helped by Rome in their online Chat service. Very helpful and quick with answers to my questions.
Hi Patricia, thanks for rating us! I'm pleased to hear that we were able to help answer your questions. Thanks again!
My parents gave Freshly to me as a gift. The service has been great, but I had to give the food to them to eat. I'm a vegetarian and find other food services a better option for me. My parents have enjoyed eating the meals.
Hi there, I'm so sorry to hear that our meals are not a great fit for you since we don't have any vegetarian meals, but I'll be sure to pass along your feedback. In light of this, I'm happy to hear that your parents are enjoying. Thanks for rating us!
I kind of made a mess of my first order. I ordered a 6 meal plan for me, and a six meal plan for my hjusband. Then somehow, I didnt realize that the second order had gone through, so I did a third order. But when the price came up, it was more than the first. When I saw that, I decided that I would be better off just doing one 12 meal subscription. When I went to the chat, Bryan asked me for the order number for the second order, and that is when I discovered that I hadn't hit the submit button on the third order. He told me he had cancelled the second order, and when I went into my bank account, I discovered that I had been charged for two $39.00 orders. By the time I figured all this out, Bryan had already cancelled the second order. He finally worked it out that we cancelled the second subscription and changed my future order to a 12 meal onder, with a $30 discount on each of the next two orders for all my trouble. He was very quick and very patient. He deserves a raise!:-)
Thank you for rating us, Carolee! I'm happy to hear that we were able to help you out! Thanks for being a part of Freshly!
I've tried several services. This is the one that works for me! Every day that I know I can just pop a FRESH, delicious meal in the microwave, one that is filling and HEALTHY is a gooood day! I've been a continuous customer for several months and am very very happy!
I was trying to send meals to a relative across the country and supremely messed it up but Freshly went above and beyond to make it all right! Highly recommended!
The meals are ok not great but convenient, I don't like the fact that there barely good for 1 week, I though it was for 2 weeks I was told over the phone, but it's not accurate
Thank you for sharing this Francine. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying our service for the most part and we appreciate your feedback! If you freeze the meals they should last you up to two weeks!
Freshly is mostly good. The proportions are fine -- not too much, and rarely leave you wanting more. The Cauliflower Bolognese is superb! 2 or 3 other dishes, too. I tend to get 6 per week, keeping 4 the same and trying 2 new ones. The coconut chicken was disappointing. So I'll try something else this week. Overall, it's been a very positive experience and far superior to Factor, which I also tried simultaneously for a few weeks. Now I've stopped Factor altogether.
Thank you for the feedback, Brian! We're glad to hear that you're enjoying our meals and service thus far! I would be delighted to pass your feedback along to our kitchen!
Hi, I needed information on delivery services available in my parents area.
Dino was very helpful in getting the info needed to send my parents a care package.
Thank you, DINO
I am glad to hear that we were able to assist you! Thank you for the review, Lynn!
Every time that I've had to interact with customer service it has been a great experience. Thank you Freshly!
I needed help buying a gift for my elderly parents and the chat service was superb!
It was our pleasure to assist! Thank you for the review, Elizabeth!
Nic was able to help very quickly. Started with the Bot (answered "no" to "have you contacted us about this issue") which was not helpful. Re-initiated chat and selected "yes" and was immediately connected to Nic who swiftly corrected the issue.
I apologize for any inconvenience that you've experienced, but I'm glad to hear that we were able to help you out! Thanks for rating us, Kate!
I called to cancel my subscription and Alex was very nice, courteous, and professional
While we're so sorry to see you go, I'm glad to hear that we were able to assist you! We hope you can give us another try soon. Thanks for the rating, Diana!
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.
