About COOK
Inspired by the meals his mum batch-cooked and froze in old ice cream tubs, Ed founded COOK in 1997 with his friend Dale, a catering chef. They dreamed of making the world’s best prepared meals and doing business differently from the crowd.
Having helped found the UK wing of the responsible business movement B Corp in 2014, COOK is at the forefront of redefining the purpose of business, so it works for people and the planet, not just profit. We have won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise for our RAW Talent employment scheme, giving people a second chance after prison, homelessness and other challenges. Every year our meals win Great Taste Awards and glowing reviews from customers and in the national press.

I love the convenience of these meals and there is a wide range of choice, I also like that they come in single or larger portions.
The meals are good quality and flavoursome, however, I feel that some of the dishes contain too much sauce and not enough meat etc.

Reliably delicious every time.
Fab food for an evening on board a boat!
I bought the aubergine parmigiana which was intended for 2 but stretched to three! The lady in the shop at Woodbridge showed me how to slice it to get 3 even portions.
I also bought the goats cheese quiche for a meal for 6. I’ve had it before and it’s always excellent. Everyone commented on the great pastry!
Thank you Cook! You saved me a whole lot of work. I was cooking on a boat so didn’t have lots of space available. The food was really worth every penny! Xxx

CHICKEN HARISSA
CHICKEN HARISSA - Fairly tasty sauce with aubergine, chickpeas and almonds. However, as usual, as we have experienced with other dishes, uk chicken was not cooked in the sauce - what appears to be pre-steamed diced cubes of white tasteless tough chicken dropped in sauce before freezing. We have had this experience several times in different dishes but thought we’d give it another chance. The deserts are good but we will never buy a meals again as the meat is clearly not slow cooked in the sauces. Very disappointing and low quality chicken for the price.

Staff so very helpful and friendly
Staff so very helpful and friendly. Many choices and as I am elderly and live alone very much appreciate the meals for one. I have used this company for many years and now use it regularly as alone and only cooking for myself. I find this saves me much time and definitely money.
Tasty pasta dish
Delicious lasagne..lots of cheesy sauce with a great bolognese filling.
All round excellence!
Easy to select and order online. Staff always welcoming, friendly and helpful when collecting from store. Range and quality of dishes is excellent and so convenient when adding an additional course or extra to existing dish.
Late delivery
I realise that the AM delivery can be up to 1300hrs but on previous deliveries the package has arrived about 1400rs. However on the last delivery it arrived at about 1840hrs. This will be my last order because of the unreliable delivery service.

Cook - delicious and reliable
Our local staff at Cook are very helpful. The quality of the food is always consistently good. It’s worth the money. From order to collection I am kept fully informed. Occasionally we have had availability issues but the manager has always offered an acceptable solution. I keep going back so that tells you something.
