Perfect for tired evenings
Friends sent us a frozen new parent bundle from COOK, which was thoughtful, but we didn’t love every dish. With Frive, we choose exactly what we want each week. No wasted meals, no heavy sauces, just fresh food that is cooked in minutes.

Great for couples with different tastes
I’m vegetarian, and my partner isn’t, which made most new parent bundles tricky. Frive lets us mix and match without compromise. Everything is fresh and tastes like something we’d cook ourselves if we had the time.
