About COOK
Inspired by the meals his mum batch-cooked and froze in old ice cream tubs, Ed founded COOK in 1997 with his friend Dale, a catering chef. They dreamed of making the world’s best prepared meals and doing business differently from the crowd. Having helped found the UK wing of the responsible business movement B Corp in 2014, COOK is at the forefront of redefining the purpose of business, so it works for people and the planet, not just profit. We have won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise for our RAW Talent employment scheme, giving people a second chance after prison, homelessness and other challenges. Every year our meals win Great Taste Awards and glowing reviews from customers and in the national press.
Good selection, prompt delivery, always delicious
Another great meal from Cook they never fail.
I hate cooking. But I like quality food! I try to avoid processed foods; Cook really helps as it states on all the meals I've had so far that it uses natural ingredients in all its meals. There's a guide for size of meals, healthy meals and much more. The portions (for two) are generous and well balanced and the dishes that have sauces are really really tasty. The whole process is so simple and delivery is easy to organise too; and so far they've delivered within the hour that they inform you of the previous day. Storage is in the freezer; no defrosting needed on most of the products and there's little or no fuss when cooking in the oven or microwave. Perfect for the person who loathes cooking in any form, or even just for a change when you're wondering after a hard day what to do for dinner. Majority of packaging is recyclable; quality of food is clearly stated and I really am pleased that Cook has such an excellent and worthy work policy. I've used other cheaper alternatives but they are often bland, boring and mean with portions. And dull. With this company, there are no concerns. Well done, COOK!
We order vegetarian and fish dishes for 2. We find them full of flavour. They are easy to prepare in the oven.
Delicious desserts delivered to our door.
We are loving COOK dinners. I use cauliflower rice on the curries and chilli dishes. Fresh veggies and jacket potatoes on other meals. Some we just eat as they are. Most range from 7 to 10 marks out of 10 except for one meal which was the Jerk Chicken & Pineapple salsa. Didn't like taste or quantity plus found a chicken bone. But most others we are Cranberry Pie, but sadly it was out of stock re last order. The previous email requesting me to mark individual dishes would not open, hence my mentioning them here. So far very happy with taste. The meats are always tender too. Thank you.
The convenience of having delicious ready meals to hand in our freezer makes a trip to our local Cook shop worthwhile. The staff there are so friendly and helpful.
A friend of mine ordered me a new parent meal box as a gift, which arrived missing half of the order. The St Albans branch were so helpful in fixing this, arranging for the missing items to be delivered the same day and even throwing in a brownie as a gesture of goodwill. I haven’t tried the food yet, but if it’s anything like their customer service it will be amazing, thank you!
I ordered a home delivery and was able to choose a time slot for it. The delivery person was very prompt and friendly. The food itself is always good.
Great food and prompt delivery
Confident about the food, it’s in the freezer and we’ve never been disappointed The delivery was poor Box on its side, not closed properly and dumped on the door step - I was in I have photos if you want them
Great meals and saves me so much time, we are really enjoying them!
Great company, the food is very tasty and made with all ingredients you’d find in your own kitchen, no ultra processed foods. A very huge choice for all tastes.
Good, helpful service and lovely food
