ReviewTerminal Summary

HelloFresh receives a 3.0/5 average rating reflecting significant operational inconsistencies; while customers consistently praise meal quality and convenience, frequent delivery failures, missing ingredients, and billing issues create widespread frustration that undermines the core service promise.

What customers love

  • Food quality, taste, and recipe variety when items arrive as ordered
  • Convenience of meal delivery and reduced food waste compared to traditional grocery shopping
  • Flexibility to pause service and easy-to-follow recipe cards

Common concerns

  • Delivery failures including late arrivals, wrong addresses, spoiled food from defrosted ice packs, and missing ingredients or meals
  • Quality control and packing issues such as damaged packaging, leaking proteins, missing recipe cards, and subpar produce freshness
  • Billing problems including unauthorized charges, unapplied promotional credits, and difficulty obtaining refunds rather than account credits
  • Customer service unresponsiveness and inability to resolve issues satisfactorily

The recipes are great and I love the ease of everything delivered to me, but for the last two boxes in a row the fish packaging has been punctured and leaking, I feel the plastic wrapping needs to be thicker, I haven’t had any issues with the other meats, only fish

Great choice.

I love the choices that I get. The food tastes great and I love the fact that it gets me cooking again and save money. I am very glad that I started this.

Customer service completely…

Customer service completely unavailable. Charged for my first box with no discount, no refund available only credits offered. Tried to contact customer service multiple times and no humans available. Worst customer service of all time. Total scam.

HelloFresh is keeping it real

HelloFresh is keeping it real. I don't like gimmicks and pop ups all over the place like the other sites. HelloFresh is my go-to for now. Best Delivery service so far. I'm impressed.

Lack of variety of meals

Lack of variety of meals. Often same ingredients are repurposed with different names. Also quality of meat has not been great.

Have been using a new delivery company lately so it arrives super late. Also have had issues with protein being broken/unusable or missing items from recipes (ex - chicken Parmesan recipe came with potatoes but no breadcrumbs. there are no potatoes in the recipe tho??)

Updated review

I mentioned problems with shipping and the way some vegetables arrived in an earlier review. I received a very nice letter apologizing for the inconvenience and a credit to help smooth over my criticism. I really appreciate both the apology and the credit. They are enough to keep me from canceling, but HelloFresh needs to deliver what they promise consistently to earn a five star review from me. That said, the meal I had tonight (Greek Salad with Spiced Pork Patties) was easy to make and absolutely delicious.

No pride in packing

My first couple boxes were amazing. Since then, I have missing meals, recipes hung up in the box tape or just damaged, meal bags busted open (or not properly sealed), etc. Quite messy actually. I don’t even refer people anymore. This is why I stopp d subscribing before. Sad.
