Too many tomatoes not enough protein

I bought a few varieties and looked forward to receiving them. Unfortunately, some of the items I was most looking forward to trying were substituted for a load of fish meals.

Noticed whilst packing away a lot of the meals are tomato based so I checked the contents of the creamy salmon pasta. I was shocked to see it consisted of 8% salmon and 8% another fish. Pasta was about 28% and the tomatoes 38%!

Such a shame because these pots would be amazing for our home and are beautifully packaged.

I need meals with more protein and carbs than tomatoes unfortunately.

Thank you so much for your feedback, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

We’re sorry to hear that some of your meals weren’t quite what you expected, especially with the substitutions you mentioned. We’re currently in stock of all our meals, so it sounds like there may have been a packing error. If you’d like, please drop us an email hello@potsfortots.co.uk and we’ll be happy to help get this sorted for you.

All of our recipes are developed in a real home kitchen and carefully balanced in partnership with a registered children’s dietitian to ensure the right mix of protein, carbohydrates, and vegetables, providing a nutritious, satisfying meal every time.

You’re absolutely right that tomatoes feature prominently in some of our dishes. This is because they naturally form the base of many sauces, rather than water or other fillers that are often used in ready meals. The percentages listed on our packs are based on what’s known as the “mixing bowl stage”, that’s the weight of ingredients before cooking and reduction. As the tomatoes cook down, they create a rich, thick sauce without needing to add extra liquid.

Our creamy salmon pasta, for example, contains 16% total fish (a mix of salmon and haddock), which is actually higher than many comparable meals. Using two types of fish also helps us create a more balanced flavour and nutrient profile, while keeping the meals affordable for families.

Thank you again for your honest review, and for recognising the care we put into our packaging and meals!

I always felt guilty when making meals for our little girl as I felt sometimes I was making meals for quickness and convenience sometimes which lead me to feel like I was giving her enough healthy options. I discovered Pots for Tots and decided to give them a go.. we’ve never looked back!! Our little girl wolfs every meal down and we haven’t come across a meal she doesn’t like! There easy to store and make and I love how you can see actually the ingredients within the meals and not just blended mush! We’ve introduced her to all kinds of different ingredients and veggies which she is loving and I feel completely guilt free knowing she is eating well.

I had high hopes but all 8 meals went in the bin. Not very kid friendly and bizzare portions. The pasta dishes are more like soup with a few tiny pieces. Very disappointing

I absolutely love pots for tots

I absolutely love pots for tots! My two year old son and 1 year old daughter can’t get enough of the meals, especially the fish pie and coconut curry. As a mum of two under two finding the time to cook a nutritious meal is difficult and something I always worry about. But now I’ve found pots for tots I now can relax knowing I always have a healthy meal that I can quickly grab from the freezer for my children and a meal that they love! I also find the price very reasonable!

Good quality kids meals that provide us with a hassle free option for food on busy weekends for our nearly 2 year old daughter. Only 3 mins in the microwave and we have a home cooked meal ready to serve! Only downside is delivery, and having to be in on the day as whilst there are ice packs in the box, I wouldn’t want it being left outside in warm weather for the day.

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so glad our meals make busy weekends easier. Don’t worry too much about delivery — our boxes are packed with dry ice which can keep food safely frozen for up to 72 hours, but we do recommend bringing them in on the day where possible.

Ideal for busy families

As a busy working household, knowing we have actually nutritious food available in the freezer for our toddler on those days when you just need something quick has been a lifesaver. All the meals look exactly like what we'd make at home and our son loves his "little pot dinners" which is a review in itself! We've been subscribers for well over a year and have only positive things to say.

I absolutely love these meals for my son! They have made mealtimes so much easier and stress-free. The convenience is unbeatable – everything arrives perfectly portioned and ready to go, which saves me so much time during the week. The meals are not only tasty but also a great size for little appetites, and there’s such a good selection to choose from.

The snacks are a huge hit too – the pancakes, muffins, and other little treats are perfect for on-the-go or as a quick, bite between meals.

The variety, quality, and convenience of this service are fantastic – it feels like a real lifesaver for busy parents who still want to give their kids fresh, healthy meals. I couldn’t recommend it enough!

Absolutely love pots for tots they are a god send!
tea time can be hectic and sometimes I don’t have the time to cook myself, I love knowing I can give my nearly 2 year old a nutritious healthy meal that she likes which are super easy to prepare and ready super quick.

I can always rely on them to get her back eating again if she’s having a fussy eater period. The coconut fish curry is always the one she will 100% eat! Also love the pasta Bolognese, chicken korma, chilli and the sweet potato curry. They are always the go to favourites!

Nitrogen ice pack gave me a serious burn

I’m genuinely shocked by how unsafe this packaging is. When unpacking my order, I picked up what looked like a regular item – but it turned out to be a nitrogen ice pack with an exposed hole. There was no obvious warning, and I ended up with a nasty cold burn on my fingers.

The ice pack is covered in logos and text, and while one note mentions using hand protection, it doesn’t stand out as a warning or clearly indicate that the pack is hazardous to touch. It was loose in the box alongside food items and looked just like part of the delivery. That’s incredibly unsafe.

I’ll be reporting this to the appropriate bodies. Busy parents unpacking in a hurry are absolutely at risk of being injured – and it’s only a matter of time before someone is seriously harmed. This needs urgent attention.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — and we're really sorry to hear about your experience. We completely understand your concern and want to reassure you that we take safety extremely seriously.

We use dry ice in our packaging to keep meals frozen during transit, which is standard practice across the frozen food industry. That said, dry ice must always be handled with care, as it can cause cold burns if touched directly. Our packaging is labelled with handling guidance, including the need to use gloves or avoid direct skin contact, but we're truly sorry if this wasn’t clear or prominent enough in your case.

Your feedback highlights an important point, especially for busy parents who are unpacking quickly, and we’re reviewing our packaging and labelling as a priority to ensure that safety warnings are more obvious going forward.

Thank you again for raising this — and please don’t hesitate to reach out to our customer care team if there's anything we can do to help further.

Poor Delivery Process

Poor Delivery Process
I recently ordered from Pots for Tots and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. Despite being home, the courier delivered my frozen goods to a concierge desk at 7am without notifying me or confirming if this was acceptable. The concierge didn’t process the parcel until nearly 9pm due to their internal logging policy, meaning my order sat unrefrigerated for hours. By the time I was able to collect it, the food was spoiled.
When I raised this with customer service, I received a generic response blaming building policies and claiming they had no control over the courier’s actions. They refused to issue a refund, citing their terms and conditions, and instead offered a 50% discount on a future order — which feels inadequate given the circumstances.
If you live in a multi-occupancy building or rely on concierge services, I strongly advise caution. Pots for Tots needs to refine their delivery process and take more responsibility for ensuring frozen goods are handled appropriately. Amazon Fresh, for example, does not allow concierge delivery for perishables — why should this be any different?
Disappointed and unlikely to order again.

Thank you for your feedback — and we're really sorry that your recent experience with us didn’t meet expectations.

As mentioned in our previous communication via customer service email, we understand how frustrating this must have been. While we do rely on third-party couriers to fulfil deliveries, we always aim to ensure our food arrives in perfect condition. That’s why we include a dedicated notes section during the checkout process, where customers can provide specific delivery instructions — including requests not to leave parcels with concierge services. Many of our customers in multi-occupancy buildings use this successfully to manage how and where their orders are delivered.

Unfortunately, without delivery notes in place, our courier partners may follow standard building access procedures — including dropping at a staffed concierge. While we don’t have control over how each building handles received parcels, we’re actively reviewing how we can make this step more visible at checkout and improve clarity around frozen delivery handling.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience — it’s incredibly helpful for shaping improvements to our service.
