Youfoodz No price table was published: plan pricing only appears after entering a postcode and choosing a box size.

How to read this comparison

Prices: The ongoing price at a typical order size: per meal for ready-made meals, per serving for meal kits. First-order offers and delivery fees are not included. Prices checked 24 August 2026. Confirm at checkout.
Highlights: Green cells mark the lowest published price, the highest customer rating, the largest menu, the highest minimum protein, our highest score, and a Yes where the services differ. A row is only highlighted when every service compared has a value for it. Prices in different units and ratings from different review platforms are not highlighted.
Customer rating: Out of 5, with the review count and the platform the rating is from. It is a customer rating, not our score.
Our score: Out of 100: customer rating (35 points, weighted by review volume), disclosure of macros, calories and a real price (20), price against services of the same type (15), menu size (10), ordering flexibility (10) and delivery reach (10). Where a provider publishes nothing for a criterion, it is dropped and the rest are rescaled.
