GBCommunication with Crateful was not a… Communication with Crateful was not a good experience. My partner and I reached out to them to see if they were a good fit for our wedding, and it became apparent to us that the owners behind the company are just not nice. They became very defensive after it was clear that it was not working out, even after we declined their offer. Needless to say, will not be recommending them to our family and friends.

GBDisappointed Honestly, I've been pretty disappointed. I've done a lot of meal delivery services and this is one of the most expensive ones. The menus are pretty boring, inconsistent and repetitive. I chose this one because you advertise with a James Beard award winning chef. However, I've had multiple days of meatballs, multiple days of omelets, one day was just a bunless hamburger and the same desserts every week! I would rather just have a couple nice cookies or a simple cake than that same dessert again. There was also an acai bowl that was gloopy with soggy granola and entirely unappetizing. The problem is these are things I can make myself. I'm paying money to get "innovative" recipes, which I haven't really seen...or at least a little variety would be nice. I say the meals are inconsistent in that some days, they are super light and healthy and other days, they are so heavy and filling (like meatballs and a huge piece of eggplant parmigiana) that it's confusing. There was also a day that the dessert was not delivered, but it was refunded quickly and easily, so kudos to customer service. I will say for the most part that the proteins are cooked well and well seasoned, but everything is just honestly boring and it is disappointing to spend $60 a day and throw away most of what I get.

GBThe food is good but the cost is high… The food is good but the cost is high and the cooler bag doesn’t get picked up in a timely manner. The last time it took them almost a week to pick up my cooler bag! My suggestion is that they shouldn’t charge a $15 cooler bag deposit every time the food is ordered.

GBFood started out amazing Food started out amazing, but got more bland and less appealing over time... I have actually experienced this with many meal services. I also had some trouble having my dietary needs followed, although they did eventually fix the problem and they always offered free meals for their mistakes. I noticed the food quality dropped with the company went public. I have decided to switch meal providers.
