Providoor review: prices, menu and delivery
Suits people who want restaurant-style dinners at home rather than a weekly meal plan, and who are happy to pay a premium for chef-branded frozen dishes. The $80 minimum, delivery fees and East Coast-only footprint make it a poor fit for cheap everyday lunches.

- $80 minimum order plus a $15 metro delivery fee unless you spend $179 to $199

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 ProductReview.com.au and Trustpilot. 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.
