Dec 14,2023These meals are fabulous. So fresh and flavoursome, just like home made. And saves me money too, each time I fancy a takeaway, I but one of the meals, quids in.

Dec 13,2023I only eat Charlie Bighams ready meals. I’ve tried the usual Supermarket own brand meals,but you just can’t compare them to the perfection of Charlie Bighams .

Dec 12,2023After living on a Scottidh island for 3 years we have returned to the mainland and so happy that the local Tesco has Charlie's products on the shelves and now we can buy a meal deal and what a selection. Excellent quality of products great selection. Looking forward to my next meal deal.

Dec 12,2023I know we are often quick to complain but not always to say how good something is. I shop at a supermarket that has a good range of your ready meals. I just wanted to say that I have tried lots and I can truthfully say they are absolutely delicious and no other ready meal can touch them for quality or taste. Thanks for cooking ready meals that are in a class of their own. Please note: This is NOT a fake review. 94414:301289

Dec 11,2023Bought two chicken and mushroom pies in ceramic dish what a disappointment all liquid and mushrooms not much chicken for the price. Extremely poor value. Always held Charlie Bighams in the highest standard.

Dec 06,2023I just wanted to express my gratitude to your brand and your products. I shop at Waitrose regularly and Charlie Bighams's lasagne is always on my shopping list. I just want to say that I am grateful to you that on a lazy evening, when you are not in the mood to cook something, you can take your product, heat it up and get a dish that tastes like a restaurant, but with a touch of homemade love, it’s amazing! Thank you for making such a high-quality product, of course I tried not only lasagna, also carbonara, Mc&cheese. I have tested many other brands, but yours is the one that makes me truly happy! Thank you!

Dec 06,2023Outstanding, tasty food. A culinary treat. I tried the Chicken Jalfrezi and pilau rice (highly recommended). It was delicious, punchy, bursting with spicy flavours and a joy to consume. These meals must be sampled to understand the experience. I have also tried the Thai green curry, Thai red curry, Moroccan chicken tagine, Breton chicken. I have found them all to be top quality and skilfully crafted, producing exquisite flavours. This is my first choice for any prepared meal.

Dec 04,2023Charlie's ready meals are the best I have ever eaten. The meatballs Al Forno are the best I have had outside of Florence and New York. His Full Pastry Pies are delicious, as a Pie connoisseur I think they are some of the best ready made around. The prices are a bit higher than supermarkets own, but as they say Quality is worth paying for.

Dec 03,2023Absolutely delicious meals. The chilli con carne with Mexican rice, Cottage Pie and Chicken Tikka Masala were fantastic. As good as if not better than homemade

Nov 30,2023Charlie Bigham's produce the best possible ready made meals available in supermarkets.They are totally reliable in terms of ingredients, taste and presentation. Simply delicious. I buy them often, even when I'm not pressed for time. And I love cooking well.

Nov 25,2023Charlie? What on earth has happened? When you first laughed in Waitrose your fish pie had big chunks of white flakey fish a little salmon and a lovely verlvet white sauce and 30% mash on top. Now all we get for £10 is minimal white fish, loads of tiny bits of farmed salmon, no sauce and 50% mash potato. If I wanted mash with some mashed up fish underneath I would have used my blender. Not cool. Really poor

Nov 21,2023This is an unsolicited email to say that we went to Rome for 4 days last month and made a point at eating at 4 different restaurants. My favourite pasta dish is spaghetti carbonara, so I had a small dish in every restaurant. In every single restaurant I was able to say "Charlie Bighams is better"! So I thought I'd better tell you that your dish beat 4 Roman restaurants for your Spaghetti Carbonara. We love it, so please don't ever change the recipe!!

Nov 20,2023Best tasting ready meals I’ve tasted. I normally stick to M& S but not any more. The wualitis excellent and the flavours delicious. Try the chicken tika

Nov 15,2023Absolutely awful, a total rip off. Satay chicken with rice for £9.50... 3 pieces of chicken 1cm square with a super sickly sauce... I feel totally ripped off. Avoid at all costs

Nov 12,2023CB’s are some of the best ready meals I’ve tried, often as good as home cooking… the macaroni cheese I’ve just had is actually better than my own! I’ve tried loads of different meals and never had a bad experience with one. They’re an absolute godsend when I’m working nights & staying away from home. The only thing that would make them even better is a wider veggie/ vegan selection (am personally an omnivore but prefer to limit meat intake as much as possible). My favourite thing of all is how little plastic they are packaged in! Other ready meal producers should follow this example. Well done CB, don’t stop improving.

Nov 08,2023I really enjoy your fish pies, lots of chunky pieces of fish in a very tasty sauce. Last weekend I tried your cherry bakewell pudding which was very delicious. Thank you.

Nov 07,2023I cannot cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed your meals, the quality and flavour is absolutely incredible. Whether it’s the tikka masala, cottage pie, fish pie, just in love with your products! Thank you and keep up the amazing food 😍

Dec 15,2023Totally lost the plot. Better off buying a ready meal from M & S. The chicken and white wine sauce contains lardons, which is pork.. How can you do that. A total disgrace
