FAQs

Many thanks for your payment. You will receive a text message on the day of the delivery (in the morning) giving you a two hour time slot within which the delivery will happen.

Delivery timings for each area are different. You can find your approximate two-hour slots by clicking on our delivery areas and timings page.

You can cancel your tiffin by calling/texting/emailing us before 10pm a day before for dinner. Any cancellations after these timings will not be considered and will be charged.

Unfortunately, we will be unable to come back and redeliver as the delivery boy has to cover a lot of area and will be difficult to redeliver however, if you call us, we might be able to arrange a convenient place for you to pick up depending on the location of the delivery boy.

Unfortunately, we are unable to deliver at exact timings however we will give you a 2 hour slot within which the delivery will happen. This is because of changing traffic conditions on a daily basis, you can also track the driver live in the delivery tracking group which we will add you into on the first day of delivery.

 

Yes, we can produce and deliver Jain food. Each Jain customer has a different requirement hence please do contact us to inform us about your requirements. Please note the charges will be higher than normal prices as we have to make your food separately. You need to mention what you do not eat in the ‘please enter dietary requirements’ on the order form when placing your order. We have a right to reject the order if we feel that it would be difficult to incorporate your order in our daily production.

 

These are admin charges to process your payment. Because we are serving you home-cooked food at very reasonable prices, we have to pass this admin charge to you. You can avoid paying this charge by transferring the money to our business bank account if you may. If you would require the business bank account details then please do choose the pay by bank transfer option when paying on the website.

 

You would need to reheat your food and no, it will not be hot to eat! The food is delivered in plastic microwave containers that can be used to reheat the food.

 

All our plastic containers can be used in the microwave and can be reused & recycled. We serve indian food in 500ml plastic containers which makes it easy to carry around and reheat if needed. You can also get food in actual steel containers however you will have to leave a deposit for the steel containers and these will be swapped over at the time of each delivery. If food is delivered in steel containers then you can reheat the food in those containers as well – this option is to save the environment and use less plastic. (At the moment, the steel container option is unavailable due to Covid however we can send in foil containers if you wish).

 

Chicken, Lamb and Egg are included in the non vegetarian tiffin’s.

If you want a flexible approach then you would have to inform the days you require by 6pm on Sunday evening of each week before the week starts.

Alternatively, if you have selected Monday to Friday then you can cancel any day by messaging on 07886371131 by 9am the same day for dinner.

We use KTC vegetable or Sunflower oil in the food. Vegetables and pulses are purchased fresh on a weekly basis and in bulk to cook them according to your neutral tastes. We do not use virgin oil as it will increase the cost of the food we offer.

Unfortunately, this option is unavailable as, in the past, we have observed that one-day trials were used as a substitute to a takeaway on the day. You are more than welcome to order from a takeaway menu or pay for minimum 7 tiffin plan as a trial which will be the best option available for you.

If you have answered ‘yes’ to the renewal text message you would have received or said ‘yes’ to a phone call then your meal plan is renewed from the next chosen day. You will be liable to pay for your new tiffin plan.
