Why new parents can't get enough of our meal delivery service

5 stars rating

Life saver for new parents

Between feeds, nappies and no sleep, cooking quickly dropped off our list. Frive has kept us eating properly with fresh meals that warm up quickly and honestly taste delicious. No UPFs, no freezer-drawer mysteries, just reliable dishes we both enjoy.

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.

Healthy new parent meal prep that supports your goals

Feeding yourself shouldn’t become the hardest part of new parenthood. Between disrupted sleep, unpredictable days and disappearing pockets of free time, having reliable meals in the fridge makes everything feel lighter.

Frive’s fresh, chef-made dishes give you proper food without planning, prepping or cooking. There are no fixed bundles packed with meals you don’t want, no heavy frozen trays sitting in the freezer for months, and no UPFs. You choose every dish, which means every meal is something you and your partner actually enjoy.

Many households mix different plans too. One parent can enjoy high-protein meals while the other chooses plant-based or lighter options, without cooking two separate dinners. All of our new parent meals are gluten and dairy-free.

You can order your meals for delivery four days a week, keep them in the fridge for up to 7 days, and heat them in under 5 minutes.

Fresh food beats frozen bundles every time. Choose meals tailored to new parents and your taste buds, not leftovers from a preset box. Choose Frive.

Fresh, chef-made meals that heat in under 5 minutes, with no fixed bundles and no UPFs. You choose every dish, making it perfect for busy, unpredictable days.

How does Frive differ from COOK’s new parent bundles?

COOK’s new parent bundles are frozen and come as fixed menus, so you might get meals you don’t like. Frive is fresh, not frozen, and you choose every dish yourself, which works far better for partners with different tastes.

Are Frive meals good as food gifts for new parents?

Yes. They’re fresh, balanced and easy to heat. Many customers send Frive as a practical, helpful food gift. It’s fresher and more flexible than frozen bundles.

Do you offer meals suitable for breastfeeding parents?

Yes. All meals are made with whole ingredients, balanced macros and no UPFs, which supports steady energy and gentle digestion.

Are your meals fresh or frozen?

Every dish is delivered fresh, never frozen. They taste close to home cooking and heat in minutes. For more information as to why fresh meals are better for you, read our guide ‘ Fresh vs Frozen Meals ’.

Can couples mix different meal types?

Absolutely. One parent can choose high-protein meals, and the other can pick plant-based or low-calorie options, all in the same delivery. Choose whatever you like, not what you're given!

Do you deliver across the UK?

Yes. We deliver nationwide, including Manchester, Bristol, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Cardiff, Coventry, Leeds, Wolverhampton, Plymouth, London and beyond.

Are the meals suitable for sensitive digestion?

Yes. All meals are gluten-free and dairy-free by default, making them gentle and suitable for most dietary needs. Read our guide that compares the best gluten-free meal delivery services in the UK.
