Good overall, had some issues with delivery but would recc.

The meals were good, app easy to use. I used them for 3 weeks as I was planning to move out of my house to travel so it would help not having to cook and clean whilst our house was a mess.

It started off well, but then not sure what happened they kept delivering to the wrong house 3 days in a row although I kept telling them. No one gave me a reason why and it didnt seem like they communicated very well internally. For the price I was paying I expected good quality. I also then had lots of bags that were not picked up, I arranged for them to be collected and for days no one did. I'm not sure what happened but they were really not good on the last week and as I originally bought them to make life easier it actually made it harder as we were dealing with moving and now this! I would recommend if they are able to fix their Comms process.

Just updating this - since then they have reached out to me and we were able compensate me for the bad experience. And overall, it was really good meals so I would rec.

Hi Dilima,

Thank you for providing us with your feedback. We sincerely appreciate you highlighting the positive aspects of our service, specifically that you found the meals to be good and the application straightforward to use.

However, we are deeply concerned and must offer a formal apology for the significant decline in service quality you experienced during your final week, especially while you were managing the pressure of moving house. Our service is designed to alleviate stress, and we regret that we failed to meet this core objective.

Please be assured that we are treating this matter with urgency and the team is currently investigating the root causes of these failures.

Many thanks,
Mica

Food great, logistics a disaster

I honestly wish we could keep ordering from Calo (the food is great, everyone in the team loves it) but the logistics are a complete disaster.

We usually order twice a week for lunch catering, and I’d say at least half the time the order either doesn’t arrive at all or shows up hours late… sometimes in the evening when it was meant for lunch that day. It completely defeats the point of using Calo for office catering.

At this stage, every order feels like a gamble. I find myself chasing the support team with every single order just to confirm whether our food will even show up, and half the time it’s “sorry, no order on our side.” There’s zero consistency or explanation as to why.

And when it does fail, I then have to go chase for refunds too (we spend around £100/order). It shouldn’t be on me to follow up for money back when they simply didn’t deliver.

I’ve given Calo so many "2nd" chances, sent feedback, been patient and every time I was assured things were fixed. But after the 10th time of being let down, I just have to give up and move on. It’s a shame, because we were ready to order for the entire team almost daily, but Calo just can’t seem to get the basics right.

Hi Lara,

Thank you for your review. We are so sorry to learn that you've had so many problems with your catering orders.

Still dealing with ongoing issues…

Still dealing with ongoing issues despite them replying here that they are working on it. I have communicated at least 6 times now that I received an email for a price increase to £84, meanwhile they keep charging me £86. If you make an error in communicating the correct price increase you cant just deduct more from someone's account without consent. Terrible app.

Hi Rebecca,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry for the confusion and hassle you experienced with your recent renewal.

We understand this must have been frustrating. You are absolutely correct, the communication regarding the recent price increase was incorrect. While the new weekly renewal cost should have been £86, due to the increase, our messaging failed to include the updated weekly delivery charge.

Please know that we’ve already logged this issue, and the team has put a fix in place to prevent it from happening again.

As an apology for the trouble, we have processed a change to put your subscription back to its original cost (pre-price increase).

We appreciate your patience with this.

Best wishes,
The Calo Team

They keep missing delivery windows-- it was supposed to arrive by 10:30pm today and it is currently 1AM. Customer service is incompetent and unresponsive.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

We're sorry to see that your delivery was late. We did encounter an issue with your delivery route, which took the team a bit of time to figure out. I can see they were responsive, but I apologise for not getting an update quickly enough.

I can see our customer experience manager has reached out to resolve this, and we have made sure you have not been charged for the late delivery.

Thank you,

If you change your meal size from L to M, price per week doesn't change...not worth the money for those who prefer smaller meal quantities but more meals per day. I also tried adjusting the calories per day so many time, and it brings me bavk to the original range every time.

Like being a footballer with a private chef- 5*

Calo is insane- if you want to know you are eating healthily, whilst feeling like you have a private chef hand delivering meals to your door every day, you have to try it. Getting the meals fresh to your door every day is game-changing- saves so much fridge space and makes sure everything tastes amazing. Love that the menu changes every week, keeps things fresh and you look forward to seeing what's coming. I even found it's great for meal inspiration moving forward- I've tried things I would never normally cook and loved them. Couldn't recommend more.

Unfortunately

Unfortunately, I gave this app many chances and they did something that is just unforgettable which is they made me a meal with something I'm allergic to. I told them for weeks and days that I'm allergic to peas and I don't know what happened but I saw peas in my meal so that's it for me. I will never subscribe to this app again.

Hi Muhammed,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, and we are genuinely sorry to hear you've had such a negative experience. We want to be totally clear about how our system handles allergens, both for you and for other customers reading this.

How Calo Handles Allergies:

At Calo, you can easily exclude any allergen or ingredient directly in the app. This is a critical safety measure: the system will immediately place a red flag warning next to any meals that contain those exclusions.

Regarding Your Specific Order:

We looked into the details of your account. As an extra layer of protection, our nutrition team routinely checks your plan. However, the logs confirm that the meal containing peas was manually swapped into your plan by you. While the app flags warnings, this manual selection overrides the automatic exclusion logic.

We understand how frustrating and disappointing this must have been. We are reviewing how to make those warnings even more visible during a manual swap process.

Someone from our Customer Experience Team will be reaching out to you very soon to discuss this further and find a resolution for you.

Thanks,
The Calo Team

Calo ticks the box!

Just got into Calo and, most importantly, I think it is great tasty food. So convenient and deliveries have been good - better all round than other meal service providers I have tried. Well done, Team Calo.

Great meal variation and makes life easy

I have been using Calo for a month or so now and it’s been great. The meals have lots of variation and I like that you can choose what you want from the menu. I have it a few days week and I either take it to work for lunch or have for dinner, saves so much time when I get home from work and actually makes me eat something healthy! Easy delivery to outside of my house too. Would definitely recommend.

I've tried a bunch of meal prep companies, and Calo is the best so far. The food is surprisingly delicious. The meals are decent value considering the obviously high-quality ingredients. I'm recommending them to all of my time-poor friends.

Using Calo has been a game changer

Using Calo has been a game changer. The food is delicious, and always tastes great, hitting the spot every time. Whilst taking away any of the stress of tracking my calories and macros- it’s literally done for you by a team of nutritionists. Then having it delivered to your door is beyond convenient!
Couldn’t recommend them enough!

Only tried one meal

Only tried one meal. Food was to be delivered between 6 and 10:30pm but was instead delivered around 1-3am. The delivery driver rang the bell at 3am and woke up the entire family. Was a nightmare getting this sorted. Calo never explained why they weren’t able to deliver during the daytime.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback; it's genuinely important to us.

I'm sorry to hear that your experience with our meals didn't live up to your expectations. While we are part of the same company, each market can have some slight differences to best serve the local customers.

We believe our value lies in the quality of our fresh, all-natural ingredients and our flexible service. However, I understand that the meals didn't meet your personal taste.

Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we'll certainly take it on board as we continue to evolve our menu in the UK.

Disappointed with Service and No Refund

I ordered a steak from them but unfortunately it was very tough and chewy, making it unpleasant to eat. I contacted customer support, shared pictures, and explained the issue. The team responded politely and mentioned they would share my feedback with their kitchen to improve next time. However, they did not provide a refund, which I feel would have been the fair resolution.
Overall, I appreciate the polite response, but I was left disappointed with the lack of proper compensation.

Hi Abdul,

Thanks for your feedback. I'm really sorry to hear that the steak you received was tough and chewy, that's definitely not the quality we aim for.

Our team took your feedback seriously and credited your account for the full cost of the steak. We had hoped this would be a fair resolution, and I'm sorry that you're still disappointed.

I appreciate you letting us know, and we'd love the opportunity to make it up to you on your next order.
