“Absolute tin pot company. Delivery window of 8am to 7pm and the box still doesn't arrive. Better to go to your local superamarket and get the ingredients yourself. Poor quality customer service”

“I have been trying to cancel for 4, weeks now but boxes keep turning up. The last box had all but one of the store cupboard ingredient bags missing. Also the fresh ingredients are going off before I get to cook the recipes. Not happy”

“We just love the concept of gousto and love the recipes which are all very tasty. However the vegetables are frequently already going off. Carrots were already soft when we received them and the other veg didn't last longer than 2 days before going off. I hope they can sort this out because we love the product and it is so convenient for us.”

“Great idea, tasty and healthy meals. I’ve eaten a lot more veg than I normally would and the recipes are so easy to follow. Lots of people say the ingredients is poor quality but I disagree. The only thing I will say is the size of the meals are tiny! Not enough for myself and partner, and I’m only small but left hungry after eating. For £25 (offer price) I didn’t mind as I could add my own pasta/rice/chicken etc. to make meals a bit bigger but I won’t be paying £35 from now on solely due to the small portions which is a shame!”

“Me and my wife have been using Gousto for a long time. And I used to recommend them to family and friends. They used to be great. However lately they have gone very downhill. Boxes we have recently received often have items missing. Or completely the wrong ingredients required for the recipes ordered. The quality of the ingredients that do turn up has also become very bad.”

“I have been having Gousto for many many years but since the pandemic this company have obviously expanded to cater for a larger market. In the past few months I have had missing ingredients, meat that was not packed in the chiller box, grissly chicken breasts, vegetables that have been past their best and missing ingredient cards. Over the years I have never had cause to complain but in recent months the issue of missing ingredients and poor produce has become commonplace.”

“We had Mediterranean fish Stew with Aioli. We liked it except the Basa fish would have been more appropriate with Tilapia or haddock /cod rather than Vietnamese river fish. Another ingredient that surprised us is a clove of garlic given was not bigger than the size of a pine nut which I think is the most essential flavour for this dish. Would like to sent you the photo of the garlic but unable to do it on my mobile.”

“Absolutely awful, took money from my account when not authorised to do so and I'm expected to chase it up with the bank to get it back. Awful service Lee Whittaker”

“Great range of quality food at a reasonable price. The delivery services including fresh produce and ingredients with all necessary recipes has been extremely convenient. It needs to be noted that some deliveries have had ingredients missing in the past, however, this would happen on rare occasions. In summary, I would recommend Gousto to all food lovers out there that enjoy cooking at home.”

“Pros: Good recipes, makes weeknight cooking easier to plan. Cons: Generally poor ingredient quality. Woody chicken breasts, mouldy pieces of ginger, the worst quality beef mince I have ever seen. It's like meat sludge. We won't be bothering in future.”

“Disappointed- I really wanted to like Gousto but oh dear me. I signed up because I thought it would help us to widen the variety of food we eat. My family and I haven’t liked one meal. The recipes are easy to follow but just not that good and the quality of ingredients was also not good. It wasn’t terrible just not good for the price [even with the introductory offer) so cancelled halfway through the offer period- avoid”

“Gousto delivers what they say they will deliver. There are quite a lot of recipes, many that take only 10 minutes, and overall it helps take some of the pressure of buying ingredients, thinking of recipes, and cooking. Their packaging, app, and recipes, have only improved over time.”

“Don’t know what I’d do without Gousto! A wonderful selection of menus, good quality ingredients and the option to add a bottle of wine or a handy gadget is so much better than wandering around a supermarket hoping for inspiration.”

“Absolutely love Gousto. Really tasty food, recipes are simple to follow, nice selection of meat and vegetarian dishes. We wouldn’t know what to do without our Gousto now. I’m always recommending to family and friends”

“We started Gousto just before lockdown, Best thing we have done. We are eating lots of different foods we would never of tried before. My husband asks what's on the menu every evening. Its like restaurant food every evening that you cook yourself. I have learnt so much about food and cooking from Gousto .”
