HelloFresh's recipe box service now costs £2.59 per serving for a two-adult household ordering five meals a week, after a 50% discount on the first box cuts the total from £51.90 to £25.95 with free delivery.
The meal delivery company delivers pre-portioned fresh ingredients to customers' doors with step-by-step recipe cards, aiming to remove the need for food shopping and extensive meal planning. Customers select their household size, number of weekly meals, and dietary preferences such as 'family friendly' and 'pescatarian', choosing from a rotating menu of over 50 recipes each week.
How the savings work
Readers can use the exclusive code HELLOREACH203M for 50% off the first box, 20% off for four months, plus free treats for three months. Almost everything needed for each recipe is included in the box, except standard pantry items like cooking oil, salt, pepper and water. Shoppers can accept HelloFresh's automatic selections or swap them for other dishes.
The menu includes crowd-pleasing meals such as 'Firecracker Meatballs' and 'Sesame Beef Tacos', one-pot comforts like 'Chicken Sausage Rigaoni', plant-forward options including 'Honeyed Halloumi & Roasted Veggie Bowls', and fish dishes such as 'Warm Buttered Shrimp Rolls'. Vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian and calorie-smart options are available.
Customer feedback on quality and value
On Trustpilot, customers praise the service for tasty food, variety and generous portion sizes. One person said: "The recipes are genuinely easy to follow, and the end result tastes just like a meal you would get at a high-end restaurant. The spice blends and fresh sauces take basic proteins and turn them into restaurant-quality dishes without the hefty dining bill."
A second shopper wrote: "The portion sizes are fabulous and generous, we have never felt unsatisfied after any of the meals we have had so far. The ingredients are remarkably fresh and the delivery schedules are timely and efficient. It is really nice sitting down with my wife once a week to chose our next menu."
One vegan customer noted a limited plant-based selection, saying: "The vegan meals we tried were really tasty and flavourful, and the ingredients arrived fresh. However, the plant-based and vegan selection each week feels quite limited compared to the meat and vegetarian options."
Another five-star review read: "We love Hello Fresh, the meals are so tasty and there is such a good variety! We have just restarted our subscription as we are having a baby and it is perfect for quick meals which taste amazing and are healthy (when you want them to be!)"
A final buyer shared: "Delivery perfect. All meals are fantastic, no food waste and easy to follow instructions. It makes life so much easier, no trips to the local supermarket and having a great choice of different meals daily. Highly recommended."
