Marley Spoon review: prices, menu and delivery
Suits households that want to cook from scratch without planning or shopping, with enough weekly variety and dietary filters to keep everyone happy. Less suitable if you want heat-and-eat convenience or live outside a capital city catchment.
Best for
- Families and couples who enjoy cooking but want the planning and shopping done for them
Marley Spoon pros and cons
Pros
- Very large weekly choice, with 200-plus recipes plus ready meals and Market grocery extras
- Plans scale from 1 to 6 people and 2 to 6 meals a week, so it suits singles and big families

- Flexible subscription: skip, pause or cancel with 7 days notice
Cons

- Shipping is $11.99 on top of the box price, which stings on smaller orders
- Delivery is limited to metro and surrounding areas of the major cities, with no NT coverage

How this page works
- Prices
- Prices and delivery details checked 24 August 2026. First order offers are listed separately from the ongoing price. Confirm at checkout.
- Customer ratings
- From Trustpilot and ProductReview.com.au. These are third-party customer ratings, not ours, shown with the review count and the date they were checked.
- Comparison score
- Out of 100, calculated from published data only: customer rating weighted by review volume (35 points), whether macros, calories and a clear price are published (20), price against services of the same type (15), menu size (10), ordering flexibility (10) and delivery reach (10). Where a criterion cannot be scored it is left out and the rest are rescaled to 100. It is a comparison aid, not a test result. Paid placement does not change it.
