Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 824 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers appreciate the variety and quality of the recipes, often highlighting the fresh ingredients and generous portions. People enjoy the convenience of not having to plan or shop, finding the meals tasty and easy to prepare, with some noting the inclusion of many vegetables. The flexibility to tailor orders and skip weeks is also a positive aspect for many users. However, some people were dissatisfied with issues related to missing ingredients or entire meals, and occasionally received poor quality or moldy produce. There are also concerns about the delivery service, with reports of boxes being mishandled or left in inappropriate locations, and some customers experiencing problems with unexpected charges after cancellation or account deactivation.

Refund refused even though cancelled subscription 15 mins after starting it

I opened and closed an account within 15 minutes (after I realised this company is the same as hello fresh and I am fed up with their mouldy produce) however they still took money out of my account days later and refuse to refund and cancel the box although I cancelled the subscription straight away. I believe this is a breach of my statutory rights. How can companies still take money from you after you cancelled - they have refused to refund me and cancel the box but have offered a partial refund which isn’t good enough. I don’t want your mouldy food and I want my money back that you weren’t authorised to take! I have asked for their email address of their complaints department so I can highlight my statutory rights - apparently this company does not use emails!! AVOID this company and Hello Fresh if you want good quality fresh ingredients and not factory farmed meat

Really good so far

Really good so far. We are on week 3 and the ingredients delivered are of great quality and taste lovely. The instructions are simple to follow and the finished meal looks exactly like on the picture. We are very happy with what we have tried this far, we will see if we manage to find enough variety for our taste in the long run.

So many recipes to choose from each week, always delivered as expected and well packaged. Every meal I've cooked has been delicious, very tasty with good quality ingredients, including the steaks I've had.

Great company providing great food

My husband has needed to be on a strict keto diet and Green Chef has supplied us with over 40 really delicious keto meals so far, it’s made being on this diet so easy for him. We’re amazed by the variety they offer and they’re so simple to cook. With their app it’s easy to order and you can skip a week easily too if you’re going on holiday. We can’t thank Green Chef enough. Keep on doing what you’re doing.

Poor support

So the recipes have been good for the last couple of weeks, however I have wrong ingredients and the customer services is really poor. The formatting for the app on android means that I can't actually use the chat and theres no other way of contacting.

Check basket before leaving they con you

You have to pay and register before choosing meals, if you click on them to have a look at content it puts in your basket, I cancelled and deactivated my account only to receive an email as to what I had ordered which I didn’t! Website is not clear so be warned, I would never use them again

Boring and unimaginative

Boring and unimaginative. Cheese sauce on fish. Flour missing.
I’ve used Mindful Chef for years who provided creative meals, never with ingredients missing and top quality. I thought I’d try something new - very unwise.

Absolutely amazing

Absolutely amazing, everything came fresh and as ordered, chicken was only up to the 29.04 s,so that's was need to be cooked on Sunday,(which gave me only 1 day to cook ), a bit disappointed, but pork came with a long date, so happy about that. Portioning great and instructions clear .
I like the timer which helps while you cooking, but could of had alarm on the end, as is just stop , while you cooking ,so need to watch the time as you can miss and over cook easy, also unfortunately the speakers 🔊 of reading the cooking part is not working for some reason, but I managed .
Food great ,so far made the chicken pesto pot and is delicious, was suprice of having a French cream thought it will be a bit of yogurt but it work as asked healthy version/keto.
Im looking forward for next meal

Incompetent customer services.

I am not a customer of Green Chef never have been never will be, however last month I returned home to find a box on my doorstep, it had my address on it with another females name on it. I contacted the company and was told to keep the box and that would be the last I would hear about it. Today I received a letter to my address for the named female demanding payment for the box and threatening bailiffs. I again contacted Greenchef to demand my address be removed from the account of that female, I do not fully believe that this will be fully actioned.

Brilliant

Have tried several online food services, and Green Chef is by far the best. Really good quality food. Good portion sizes. Easy to follow recipes and a good range of recipes. Easy to order and amend if needed.
