I am a great fan of Cook BUT the Chicken Alexander was totally bland and tasteless. I like quite bland food BUT this was beyond bland....completely tasteless and a complete disappointment. Sorry Cook - I like many of your dishes BUT this was a complete disappointment and did not live up to expectations in any way - bland, nondescript and even a full bodied glass of red wine could not recoup the situation.

Supposed B Corp....if you visit their factory in Kent- beware. Terrible working conditions, cold, messy etc They talk the talk but in practice are very bad employers. I know.

I’ve been to cook a few times now and although their food is actually nice enough to cook from frozen,I feel robbed every time I order the food for one. When you’ve heated the food it’s always half embedded into the tray. Even the pies look miserable. I just don’t think you’re getting much for what you pay here. (Please see photos) I managed to get all of my pad Thai noodles on one fork. Lucky me!

We had the fish pie as we had had a very busy day. It was heavy, lumpy. The fish was of inferior quality and made us thirsty all night I used to like Cook products but I don’t think I will shop there for a while

We had the Cook’s beef bourgignon this evening as a special treat during the ‘lock down’. It was truly dreadful and we will never have it again!

There are some really good and tasty meals, but somewhat overpriced in my opinion. A few disappointments, but a useful 'stand by' if required.

I had the vegeterian Thai curry- the actual spice and veg contact whereby the issue - al the processed sugar added was This tasted cloyingly sweet. AVOID

At first thought it was quite expensive compared to other frozen food shops but once we tried the food we could tell why. Top taste, top ingredients. We thought the portions were smaller than usual but again once we tried it we could see that as it was more than enough as meals were full of meat and spices rather than water. Staff are always very helpful and very friendly. Definitely recommend

The staff in the Edinburgh branch are always friendly and helpful without being intrusive. I can recommend the salmon tartlets, carrot cake, sticky toffee pudding and Elderflower panna cotta. The carrot cake is really good value for money, as an alternative to a typical birthday cake.

I ordered a selection of meals (spent about £50). Was super enthusiastic as the posh people in the office all seem to know about it and buy it. I have to say I have been severely underwhelmed so far. Tried a spinach/feta cheese pie, lasagna, and risotto. The taste is soooo bland and texture so watery in the case of lasagna and risotto. I definitely won’t be snobbish again and think something expensive must taste good.

We bought a few different items the other day but had this one tonight. It was very tasty and can be cooked straight from the freezer. It was allegedly a 4 serving dish but we must be greedy ‘cos there wasn’t much after my wife and I dug in.

I used to rely on these ready-made meals when entertaining, but haven't used them lately as I find they vary so much in quality. We last bought a cottage pie that was mostly potato and a quiche Lorraine that was horrible with large pieces of tough ham in it, and a funny taste - nothing like a quiche Lorraine should be. On the other hand their pork Dijon is consistently very tasty as is their fish pie. Their puddings are always good, but are beginning to look a little 'bought'. We buy from the Farnham shop. The staff are always very helpful and pleasant.

Bought a wide selection of dishes for my first experience. Tried three dishes. Not impressed with any of them. Won't be using again. The low calorie meals are only low calorie because the portions are pathetic. I am a size eight and very conscious of watching my weight, but I could cook a more satisfying meal for the same amount of calories as the macaroni cheese, which was about the size of a starter. Had to add prawns to the prawn kahari. Think there were about four prawns in it and the sauce was not pleasant. The paella was just about edible, but the chorizo was tough and I had to pick it out. Wiltshire farm foods is better.

February 14 is also our wedding anniversary and we NEVER eat out, too busy, seats crammed together and prices hiked. I normally cook a meal but have been meaning to try Cook, not least of all because they were very generous when I asked for a raffle prize for a charity function. I settled for some prawn canapes, beef Wellington, dauphinoise potatoes, carrot and swede mash and some lemon cheesecakes. It was absolutely delicious and I will be going back. The staff are always very welcoming and have a little something or other for you to taste. We only ate half of the Wellington, so will have the other half tonight. Superb.

I went into cook to stock up on a few things as I've been unwell for a couple of weeks and drove past on a numbers of occasions thinking I may try their food. I bought cottage pie ( very dry hardly any mince Tesco basic tastes better) Beef madras £5.00 meat as tuff as old boot leather hardly any beef tastes like pataks sauce very dry. Rice bland. Chilli was just dreadful I could count the beans. Lamb casserole was full of fat. Meat balls and pasta NO COMMENT just not what you'd expect for the price you pay. I definitely won't recommend to anyone and won't be shopping there again WASTE OF MONEY.

READY MADE FOR FREEZER Thai red curry duck. Very small amount of duck, beans and pepper absolutely swimming in a thin far from special flavour sauce which comes nowhere near expectation after reading Cook description. Serving for two (with ones own home cooked side dishes) only enough for one reasonable appetite. Extremely expensive. ' Remarkable Food' you call it!. Pull the other one, Edward!

I won't lie when I say I don't like these sorts of places. I understand the concept and I understand that not everyone can cook or has the time to cook but it all seems overly expensive for what it is. It's frozen food at the end of the day with a front-end makeover.

He usado cocinar para comprar comidas congeladas durante un número de años, aunque no es un restaurante como ya menciono que merece una mención. El personal muy amable y normalmente tienen disponible una variedad de catadores. Tienes una variedad de tamaños de porción de 1, 2 o 4 personas, así que es ideal para fiestas sólo descongelar y poner en el horno.

Very quick, convenient but very expensive. Some of the meals are short of ingredients, and the fillings are all gravy and little meat. The pies( especially family size) are really tasty. Lasagne very good.

When it's my turn to cook(!), I often cheat by shopping here for frozen pre cooked home meals such as cottage pie or lasagne. Unfortunately I've given up now trying to pass the food off as my own

We have visited cook on several occasions to give our cooker a rest and have been very pleased with all our purchases. The fact that you know the name of the chef makes for a personal touch.

Have just discovered this shop and was astounded to see the range of high quality foods on offer. It may be a tad expensive for some but will impress family and friends when entertaining. Have already tried many dishes and have yet to be disappointed

Este es amable congelados, bien surtida tienda de comida. Hay una buena variedad de comida sabrosa preparada al pop en el horno o mantenerse en el congelador para cuando no te apetece cocinar. Incluso se está enfocado a dar una lista de comidas para evitar cualquier cosa que es alérgico.

disculpas por listado como un restaurante, pero sin ninguna otra opción! Me gustaría mencionar este cocinero como sus opciones son increíbles. Todo (casi) está congelada y esta totalmente lanza la cubierta de preparadas - éstos son preciosas! Desde sus Wellingtons ofrece tradicionales de carne a los postres como desastre palovas y Eton - de comida para llevar en cajas chinas e indias, el cocinero tiene algo para todo el mundo. Los precios son comparables a la calle high Street, los niños comidas son excelentes, muy prometedor no aditivos o azúcar añadido o sal, preparado en el microondas en menos de 5 minutos, tanto nuestro hijos disfrutamos mucho y terminado! Amable personal está a su disposición para directo, lo recomiendo y además las extrañas gratis catadores, cuando fuimos había trozos de queso - encantador!! Las porciones son para uno, dos, cuatro personas o fiesta tamaño. Los traybakes de carretera flapjacks y rocosa parecía magnífico y peligrosamente tentador!! Mantenga un ojo de ofertas en los fines de semana - bonos en los catálogos en línea o si la búsqueda. Es muy fácil llenar su congelador con entrantes, platos principales y postres.

Having travelled near and far mc Donald’s is a safe bet However Croydon must go down as the slowest service in the world , no matter what time of day it’s slow and the food is often cold and the little manager guy can be very rude ,back to the wait times my record is now 23 mins even when I did get served I had to wait another few mins for fries !! Maybe they forgot that most meals come with fries

Really nice service for a late lunch today (approx 3.30pm) for 3 people. Allergies were very well handled - my son has severe ones, the waiter listened carefully to his allergies and what we would possibly like to order and checked with the chef (sadly not all restaurants are on the ball). Meals arrived hot and everyone enjoyed their choice. Ingredients were fresh and meals well presented. Thank you to gentleman and lady serving us today, they are a credit to your business! On a side note - toilets were clean and so was the restaurant area.
