Bad UX, dark patterns, not worth the cost Not only are the restaurants you get access to limited, along with the food options (mostly chicken), they charge your account without letting you know for months and refuse a refund. I’ve lost hundreds of dollars to this passive subscription. A terrible company with dark patterns all over their UX. Steer clear and avoid at all costs!

Mostly 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

MealPal 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!

Great deal all around It’s a pretty great selection of different food items at reasonable prices. Eating out for lunch in the city can be expensive, but meal-prepping every day is tiring as well. MealPal allows me to do a little bit of both for almost the same price as prepping every day.

Wonderful customer service While the app is definitely not my favorite, the customer service for MealPal is wonderful. I didn't realize I was going to be charged for a meal plan so soon after redeeming my free meal, so I called them and asked for a refund, as I had no intentions of buying a plan. They immediately canceled my account and issued my refund! They were very understanding and kind.
