GBMealPal is a fantastic way to save money on a necessary expense MealPal is a fantastic way to save on a huge monthly expense: lunch. I work in New York City, where it's easy to spend $12-15/day on a salad. By signing up for MealPal, I was able to cut my per meal expenses in half. And with such a wide variety of participating restaurants nearby, I haven't had to sacrifice on healthiness, portion size, or variety. I highly recommend!

GBReview from a Long-Time User As someone who's used MealPal for several years, I've seen a change in value. Previously, lunch options often came under $7, making it a budget-friendly choice. However, they have introduced a complex credits-based scheme with hidden expiry terms. The savings are negligible once you factor in the deceptive tactics. When I did the math, I would have been better off purchasing lunch directly from the restaurants. Alternatively, seek out individual restaurant loyalty programs and opt in to their loyalty benefits instead. There is no risk, and you'll save more.

GBPictures say 1000 words I very much enjoy the concept and theory. It exposes a clientele to a list of vendors they may not have considered due to the curated nature of the meal. However, pictures should be submitted day of or the exact image of the food that is being picked up. Portions need to be realistic as we know this is slightly discounted but if a person has to buy more food it costs more overall. All in all, love the product and platform and east just want the pick up to represent the picture accurately.

CAScam Service is quite bad, less and less restaurants participate and customer service is bad. They also cancel all your unused meals you technically paid for as soon as you skip or cancel one cycle of subscription. Wouldn't make any exceptions even for a long term customer. I do not recommend.

GBMostly Great Before MealPal, I spent $12-$18 on lunch every day in SF. After switching to MealPal in September 2018, I have saved over $1000 on lunch. The options are usually phenomenal and range from healthy salads (which I try to eat) to more hearty things. My only two qualms are 1) portion size varies hugely by restaurant (and it's hard to judge based on a picture), which they've tried to combat by adding more transparency to the menu 2) UI/UX could definitely use improvement especially on the desktop version
