Great App and helpful staff.

Great App and easier than phoning. BUT now most takeaways charge for delivery to cover Hungryhouse fees - you don't pay it if you ring direct. Still a few offering free delivery by me but won't use if they disappear. Now owned by Just Eat. I notice many reviews are mistakingly reviewing the restaurants food not Hungryhouse. That's ridiculous - Hungryhouse have great customer service and just connect you with the takeaway. They don't cook the food.

Hi Dipen,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. I'm really sorry that you had a negative experience when ordering through us recently.

Sometimes our restaurant partners decline orders when they are too busy, although this is something that we actively discourage. We encourage our restaurant partners to set themselves offline during busy periods to prevent situations like this from happening. It is also in the best interest of our restaurants to not decline any orders, as this affects their ranking on our platform. If a restaurant declines too many orders they are taken offline for a certain period of time, as we understand it can be a huge inconvenience to have an order declined. We also send out a notification to customers at the time which details the decline and the refund process.

Again, we are really sorry that you had this experience with us, and we would be happy to help you in any way we can in future.

All the best,
Your hungryhouse social media team

Hi there Stefan,

I'm sorry that you had an issue with the pizzas you received from one of our restaurant partners.

Do you still have the pizzas available for collection in exchange for the refund? Did you speak to the restaurant at the time to get the correct order re-delivered?

As it its the restaurant's responsibility to deliver the correct order, we cannot take responsibility if they do not fulfill it correctly. However that would be poor service to just leave it there, hence we will contact them and try to negotiate some compensation.

I'd like to follow up on the case if you can send through your order ID and ensure that we've done everything in our power to resolve this. Please send it to info@hungryhouse.com

Many thanks!

Rude restaurant, no info, poor food.

When I placed my order I was told by email that my food would be arriving at a certain time, but then when it was late I called the restaurant and was told that it would be delivered by a time more than 30 minutes after that which I had ordered my food for. They acted as though I should have known this l, but I was NOT informed by the app or emails prior to ordering it or even after ordering (by way of apology that my order was delayed).

If I had known my food would arrive so late I wouldn’t have ordered it. The person on the phone at the restaurant was rude and unhelpful.

Seriously unhappy, and no discount or refund offered. At least with Deliveroo and ubereats they give you an accurate estimate of when your food will arrive and live updates. Here, the only thing suggested was to call the restaurant, who were reallly unhelpful and rude.

Do not recommend using hungry house If you want decent food to turn up on time.

Hello Anaar,

Thanks for taking the time to get in touch with us regarding the experience you had with us!

I do apologise for the lateness of your order. As we do not supply restaurants with drivers (as the services you mention do) we rely on receiving order updates from the restaurant so that we can update you on what's going on.

Frustratingly sometimes restaurants neglect to let us know of this, hence the order is delayed without any communication. We're always putting in processes to try mitigate this issue, and so we do send an SMS and/or push notification when the restaurant accepts and confirms the order - letting you know a more accurate ETA.

I would just make sure that your push notifications are enabled so we can alert you of any order updates, and also to double check in the 'Notifications' section of the app if that was how you ordered - there you can switch updates on and also take a look at those you may have missed.

I think I may have found your order in our system - the one with La Pomodoro? We sent a push notification to the device at 02.06am:
'Your hungryhouse order 5XXXXXXX has been accepted with an adjusted delivery time. New estimated delivery time: 03:36.'
Is this the correct order?

Either way, if you drop me an email to socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk with your order ID in and I'll see if we can arrange any compensation.

I look forward to hearing back from you.

Regards,
Your hungryhouse social media team.

Hi Pauline

We're very sorry about the issues you had with your order the other day, this does sound especially frustrating if it has happened a number of times that your order is late!. We would like to have a look into this and speak with the restaurant are you able to send us your order number to socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk so that we can look into the issue?

Hi Laz

I'm very sorry to hear that you had issues with your order from one of our partner restaurants! While our restaurant partners operate their own businesses, we do expect them to uphold a certain standard of service. We even have a department, Restaurant operations, which is dedicated to helping our restaurant partners to improve in these areas.
We would be happy to speak with the restaurant about the issues you faced and see what can be done, if you could email us socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk with your order details.

All the best

I was completely disgusted last night…

I was completely disgusted last night at the way I was spoken to by a member of your staff.
They had swapped one of my meals for something else, I called the restaurant and asked where my lamb tikka was but the manager just said I tried to ring you and it kept going to voice mail. This is an out and out lie, I was not on my phone and it was sat directly next to me.
The Chicken and rice were stone cold, the rest of the order was barely warm so we did not eat it, it went in the bin and instead my husband went out and bought some fish and chips.
I obviously wasn't worried as clearly customer service at hungryhouse would support my complaint, how wrong I was. The operator I spoke to on live chat was rude obnoxious and even told me to get it out of the bin! I asked to speak with a manager and he told me that no manager would want to speak to me.
I have screen Shot this conversation and will be contacting a manager, but as your company does seem to side with restaurants over regular customers I am not holding out any hope for a satisfactory resolution.

App hopeless

Food usually good (which is nothing to do with Hungry House)
App doesn’t always work properly and every time I order, the message telling me my order is on the way arrives at least an hour after the actual order so overall fairly useless - much better ordering direct from the supplier

Hi Dorothy

Glad to hear that you do enjoy the restaurants we have on offer, but sorry to hear that you have had some issues with the app.
This "on its way" feature is for restaurant partners to select when the order is just that on the way, their may be some confusion over this function.
I would like to follow up on this issue if you could give email us with your order reference numbers where you have experience this issue or any more information about any other issues you may have had.
Our email address is socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk.

Dreadful service

I have ordered from hungryhouse.co.uk quite a lot and I am very disappointed on the lack of customer support given when something goes wrong with an order. I received my order at 18.35 the entire order was cold hard so not edible for a pregnant woman and certainly not worth any money. I contacted them straight away and to my shock they sided with the restaurant and said it wasn't cold when it left them. In the meantime the courier has several deliveries and my order came cold. I was made to feel like I was lying the whole order was untouched still in the boxes. Dreadful service take the money and deliver shoddy service. Order 79442110. I have taken it up with PayPal and will certainly be taking my customer elsewhere they shouldn't be allowed to trade pizza rozza and definitely need some management in customer care. Just awful

Hi Nicky,

I'm sorry to hear about this takeaway experience and that you had issues reaching a solution with one of our agents. We strive to provide a simple and relaxing way to order food and I'm so sorry you received the opposite! As you have provided your order number, I will follow this issue up via email with more information about our policies in regards to food quality complaints and hopefully a resolution you are happy with. Please look out for my email and I sincerely hope this experience has not discouraged you from giving hungryhouse and our other restaurants another chance!

Cold outside and the food is colder!

Sadly The Tiffin Tin at Wanstead forgot to deliver my soft drink and the food would have been delicious if it wasnt so cold.!
Not just one or two dishes but ALL of the food was cold. When I complained to Hungry house I said for them not to come all the way back again for just a bottle of coke (expensive at £2.35!) I would accept a refund. But also to tell the Tiffin Tin that the food was cold. Tiffin Tin said the delivery man just forgot to give me the coke but he was still in the area so begrudgingly they would give me the refund but did NOTHING about the fact that the food was cold. Not even an apology! They whined that they delivered it early. IT WAS STILL COLD! So not even sorry. Pardon me? I wanted it at 6.20 NOT 6.00! And now I have to put my oven on to heat the food through for my family coming home. If they had delivered it at the correct time and the correct temperature I would be a satisfied customer. The order for three people was £49.55 so it is not a cheap takeaway. And they have just lost our business. First and last try! Hey, The door bell just rang and my bottle of coke has been delivered! Hey again! It is now 7pm and I just had a call from the Tiffin Hut. "hello, our delivery man has delivered your coke yes? Well Hungry House have already refunded £2.35 to your account." Pause for my reply. I say what do you want me to do? He said well next time we will add it on. I was speechless. I just said OK like a pussycat because I couldn't be bothered with another row about the cold food! Reheated it was delicious so dont let all this put you off. Just beware! Maggie Regan

Hi Maggie,

We're very sorry for all the hassle this caused you in the weekend! We are a bit shocked as well to hear how this was handled. If you've let an agent know your preference for a refund vs. re-delivery, we will communicate this to the restaurant. I presume that when you mention the order was for 6:20pm, this was a pre-order for a specific time? We make this clear when the order sends to a restaurant "do not deliver the order before this time", so we do normally expect that these will be delivered approximately at the requested time.

We normally aren't able to refund items on an order without the restaurant's permission. If a restaurant has instructed us to refund an item, we would not expect this offer to be withdrawn, as well as this not being possible after we have processed a refund. If a restaurant wishes to redeliver the item despite a refund being the agreed resolution, this would be considered as additional offer. We would not encourage any of our restaurant partners to call a customer like this, and instead have internal processes which mean that the restaurant can speak to us directly, and that the customer will not be bothered.

Would you be able to send us an email with your order number to socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk? We can then look into the issue properly and make sure that it doesn't happen again.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, we hope that you are keeping warm and safe this week Maggie!

HOPELESS HOUSE

I used H.H because I thought there was a layer of protection against problematic orders. I've used them on and off. I was wrong. Paying the extra money to go through them instead of calling the restaurant direct to get it cheaper I felt was worth it but turns out was pointless. I'm not a fussy eater. I accept sometimes a delivery won't be up to par. Last month I took delivery of king prawns in black bean sauce rice prawn toast. This from may mei wok blackstock road finsbury park. I asked for extra black bean sauce. One woukd expect them to add extra sauce. No. The prawns were floating in a dark brown liquid. Yup. They had just added a lot of water so it looked like extra sauce. Utterly repulsive. I've never seen prawns in black bean sauce where they float like a tyre in a dirty river. The prawn toast was burnt. The rice congealed. Forget a fork. You'd need a knife to cut it. The can of coke was nicely chilled. I needed the coke to recover from the shock. I've never had a delivery like this. Impossible to let it go. Complain and hopefully they wouldn't do it again. Hungry House didn't want to know. Unbelievable. Pointed me to their customer service. Oh because you've disposed of it we can't do anything. Sorry I didn't know. Look at my account you'll see I never complain. Why would I try it on now ? So if you think you have protection by using Hungry House. You don't. Happy to take your money but when there's a problem get a good lawyer because getting their help without one isn't possible lol

Hi Shaun,

We're very sorry and shocked to hear that you received such poor quality food. We know it can be very disappointing when a takeaway treat arrives like this. For any food quality issues, we first need to bring these to the attention of the restaurant for a resolution. In most cases the restaurant will ask to collect the order for inspection, which is why we ask if it can be kept aside. It can be difficult to anticipate a process you may not be aware of however, so we do sympathise with this.

Our service is here to help make ordering an easier and more fluid process, for both placing the order, and following up on any issues. While we unfortunately aren't able to offer buyer protection for food quality issues, should any food quality issues arise, we are here to chase these up on your behalf. For any issues with the ordering not being delivered, we do offer protection against this however.

Would you be able to send us your order number to socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk? We can look into the issue a little further, as well as the way that it was handled and communicated by us. It's our aim to create a great takeaway experience for you, and we would very much like to improve on this in future.

Thank you for your feedback Shaun, we hope that you are keeping warm and safe this week!

Pointless layer of complication. Much easier to phone a restaurant direct

Hopeless. Pointless layer of complication to a simple process. The online order does not go through to the restaurant until. 20 minutes before collection time- restaurant can’t fullfill orders in that time so food not ready. Some items not available but already paid for. The refund process is needlessly complicated... I will just phone the restaurant in future!

Hi F Barley,

We're very sorry that your order was incomplete and not ready on time to pick up. The aim of our service is to make ordering easier, so it is disappointing to hear that this wasn't the case for you the other day. Each restaurant is able to set an individual time taken to prepare an order for collection, so we do expect this to be as accurate and realistic as possible. If items are unavailable, we do also expect that they can be put out of stock on the platform or that an order be declined, to avoid as much inconvenience as possible for the customer. Would you be able to email us your order number to socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk so that we can look into this, and check on your refund as well?

We hope that you are keeping warm and safe this week!

Hi Simon,

We're very sorry to hear that you had such a poor experience and felt like your issue wasn't heard by us. It does matter to us whether our customers are having a good experience when using our platform and we would like to investigate and resolve any issues or problem areas. While our restaurant partners operate their own businesses, we do expect them to adhere to a certain standard of conduct and service. We even have a department, Restaurant operations, which is dedicated to helping our restaurant partners to improve in these areas. While we ideally would like to be able to work with our restaurant partners to create a great experience for customers, if we aren't able to resolve any serious or reoccurring issues, we will take restaurant accounts offline.

Would you be able to send us an email to socialmedia@hungryhouse.co.uk with your order number and a little bit of info on what the issue was? This means that we can make sure it is being investigated and also how the issue was handled by us.

We hope that you are keeping warm and safe this week Simon!

Spammy House

The problem with using Hungry House is that they don't enforce correct use of customer data. My partner and I have both received lots of ongoing SMS spam from companies after ordering from Hungry house- being our only (indirect) contact with the restaurants concerned.

If you raise this abuse of private data with Hungry House, you get fobbed off with vague promises that they will ask restaurant not to spam you any more. Nothing gets fixed or enforced, no-one gets booted off the service. Rotten to the core. Avoid, unless you like your phone getting spammed.
