What Makes Frive Different?
We're the UK’s highest-rated ready-to-eat meal delivery subscription, here’s what sets us apart:
Goodness:
Food today is frequently ultra-processed and often packed with artificial ingredients to preserve shelf life and cheaply enhance flavour. At Frive we promise no artificial ingredients, preservatives, or flavour enhancers, only balanced, nourishing and natural meals.
Farm to Fork Philosophy: We believe in sourcing our ingredients responsibly and transparently, that's why we’re on a journey to become 100% organic.
Perfectly Portioned to Minimise Food Waste: Our portion-controlled meals not only tackle food waste but also reflects our dedication to benefiting both our health and the planet.
the planet.
Deliciousness:
Restaurant Quality: Enjoy meals that match the quality of top restaurants, crafted by our expert chefs.
So much variety & choice: Over 30 meals to choose from each week, with a total selection of more than 250 meals.
High-Flavour Dishes: Each dish is packed with bold, vibrant, natural flavours.
Competitor-Beating Deliciousness: We pride ourselves on delivering meals that taste better than any other on the market.
New dishes each month: Our expert team of chefs are always experimenting with new recipes and meal ideas, guided by customer tasting panels and feedback.
Frive is made without dairy and gluten and can cater to a wide range of intolerances.
Convenience:
Meals ready to heat and eat in minutes.
No Prep, no cleaning, no cooking: Cheaper than a takeaway, quicker than cooking from scratch.
Freshly delivered to your door: Frive meals always arrive fresh, and chilled, never frozen. We deliver once or twice a week so you can enjoy them as fresh as they leave our kitchen.
In General the app is ok, but I have had some issues.I only want adhoc deliveries really, so have changed my subscription setting and cancelled individual deliveries to get the deliveries when I want them. But the app seems to fight against this, I've had cancelled deliveries reappear later. My chosen delivery day (Wed) has reverted back to Sun on more than one occasion. The dashboard page has shown different (incorrect) details of the next delivery, compared to what was shown on the deliveries page itself at the same time.One other annoyance is not being able to rate a meal without giving a reason. I just want to give a star rating so I know in future which are my favourites, but anything less than 5 stars forces you to choose a negative reason why (such as I didn't like the meal), which is not the case necessarily, it's just relative.
Good & Consistent service

I’ve been using Frive since it was Lion’s Prep and probably for a year or so now. Overall I rate this service well. Have seen from some of the other reviews that people have had issues with deliveries but that’s likely more due to the courier than Frive themselves. Overall the meal quality has been consistent and I think I’ve only had one issue with a meal missing in a long time of use which by all accounts is very good. My only input on the constructive criticism side is they could try to revamp the menu a bit more effectively as I’ve seen the same meals for a long time now and some of them may be very popular so it wouldn’t make sense to get rid of them but seeing some more new recipes would be better and I personally think it would be better if they could put the sauce pots for the meals in their own separate box (not in the meal box) as this would allow for more sauce to be provided as sometimes it’s not enough for the meal depending on what it is, but the curry for example you need a lot of sauce for it not to just dry out on the food when cooking. The reward scheme is very good as well, allowing you to repeat the reward journey after sticking with them for long enough was generous and noticed!

Messed up or missed deliveries

It started off well I have been using them for 7 weeks now, and initially all of my meals were arriving on time and with no issues. Until last week, my order arrived and only 2 of my 5 meals where in the delivery, I contacted frive and they gave me £24 credit off my next delivery. Then this week delivery didnt arrive at all, I checked DPD and it said that because the goods are perishable they have had to dispose of it now, so I contacted frive and they have just given me £17 credit off my next order. I’m not impressed as I am disabled so it is very difficult for me to get to the shop, I have to wait until I have a PA who can drive me, and I don’t have the ability to cook for myself, and because I am allergic to wheat and dairy there arent any ready meals I can buy, so frive was perfect. But now they have messed up 2 weeks work of food, I am really hoping that the meals actually arrive next week because I really don’t want to cancel my subscription. The meals themselves are really good quality, its just a-shame the delivery and packing has issues
Review of Lion Prep Foods:
ETTINTL
I am absolutely delighted with Lion Prep Foods! The meals are not only delicious but also incredibly convenient for my busy lifestyle as a single professional living in London. I recently made the decision to increase my meal plan to 4 meals a day for 6 days a week, and it has been a game-changer for me.The variety of meals offered by Lion Prep Foods is impressive, and each dish is packed with flavour and nutrition. As a man with a hectic schedule, I find it challenging to find the time and motivation to cook for myself after a long day at work. Lion Prep Foods has taken the stress out of meal preparation for me, allowing me to focus on other aspects of my life.Previously, I used to shop at overpriced supermarkets like Waitrose, only to find that much of the food would go to waste due to my busy schedule. Since switching to Lion Prep Foods, I no longer have to worry about food spoilage or spending unnecessary time in the kitchen. The convenience and quality of Lion Prep Foods have truly exceeded my expectations.In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Lion Prep Foods to any busy professional looking for delicious, convenient, and healthy meal options. With their tasty meals and flexible meal plans, Lion Prep Foods has become an essential part of my weekly routine. I give them a well-deserved 5-star rating and couldn't be happier with my decision to make the switch!
