Freshly is a popular meal delivery service that ships out weekly deliveries to its subscribers.

You can then heat up the meals in the microwave or put them in the oven and start eating just a few minutes later.

#3 - Menu Types Available

Freshly aims to keep things simple with its offerings, so you won’t be bombarded with dozens of different plans when you try to sign up. You will be able to select your meals from a weekly selection of 30+ choices, all prepared by chefs and made with fresh ingredients.

Instead of making you subscribe to one particular plan where you always get the same kind of food, Freshly gives you choices and options each week. Freshly breaks down its large menu into six main categories: Feel-Better Food, Home Bistro, Market Day Meals, One Bowl Nourishers, Take-Out Twists, and Whole Comfort.

Feel-Better Food is where you’ll find a great range of comfort classics from around the world like Sicilian-Style Chicken Parmesan and Herbed Chicken Romesco. These are the sorts of family-friendly meals everyone can enjoy, featuring a nice mixture of meats, veggies, and sauces.

Home Bistro features home-style cooking classics like Gumbo and Peppercorn Steak; this category will remind you of big meals with the family gathered around the table together.

Market Day Meals go in a slightly different direction, comprised of meals made from the sorts of ingredients you’d expect to pick up at your local farmer’s market. Featuring a range of seasonal ingredients, every meal is prepared by the Freshly chefs to the highest of standards.

The One Bowl Nourishers are the sorts of meals you’d expect to find served all together in one big bowl like a Spicy Harissa Pork & Veggie Bowl or Hot Chicken Bowl, ideal for those who enjoy rich flavors and tasty sauces.

Takeout Twists, meanwhile, focus on a range of typically Asian dishes that you might usually expect to order from a take-out service. Meals include, Chicken Tikka Masala or Sesame Citrus Chicken, cooked and prepared to the same high standards of a real restaurant.

Finally, Whole Comfort takes you back to your past with some true American classics like Homestyle Chicken and Creamy Casserole.

All of the meals are labeled with their inner contents to help you quickly and easily identify options that are low in carbs, soy-free, high protein, dairy-free, etc. There are always gluten-free and peanut-free options on the menu too.

#4 - Cost

New members signing up for Freshly can enjoy an instant $20 discount just for making an account and ordering their first set of meals.

Since you don’t have to choose between a lot of different plans, the pricing system on Freshly is really simple. All you need to do when making your account is choose whether you want 4, 6, 9, or 12 meals per week, depending on your own needs and people that need feeding in your household.

The more meals you order per week, the lower the overall price will be. Prices range from $11.50 to as low as $7.99. These are some of the best prices we’ve seen for a meal delivery service. However, you do have to add shipping fees on top of these prices.

One of the best things about Freshly is its customer service department. The site has a deep and detailed FAQ and Help section, filled with tutorials and answers to dozens of common questions about how the service works, such as how to alter your subscription, and what kinds of foods are on offer.
