Gardencup Avis 

First off I want to say how much I wanted to love this service, but I didn’t. The idea of having salads delivered that were delicious and fresh is an excellent idea! I read the reviews and decided to try them anyway. The salads were the perfect size for a meal, just enough to fill me up. The dressings however are very bland and lack flavor and the meat included is the same. The buffalo chicken one has no flavor of buffalo sauce that I tasted. The steak one wasn’t very good either. Basically all the proteins lacked flavor. The cherry tomatoes included in the salads were mostly mushy. For the most part, the salads were ok if they were half the price they are, but they are definitely not worth the price.
My biggest issue was with customer service. I prefer to refer to it as customer nonservice. I contacted them with an issue of being charged for 2 boxes a week before they were to be delivered and was basically told too bad, we can’t stop the shipment. I wish I had listened to the reviews and just purchased pre made salads from Walmart, I would have been better off. They’re under $5 and are just as good as these, some are actually better, like the Southwest Chicken Salad.

I cannot say enough about the variety and freshness of these salads! I could never make them as well or for the cost as getting them shipped to me. Variety is amazing, flavor and freshness is amazing, great way to get your fresh vegetables in! Both my husband and I love them and we highly recommend!!
Oh, and we have been using them for quite a while. I stopped for a little bit because we were traveling, but could not wait to get back on ordering.
Oh, and great customer service by the way as well!! ( :

I just got my first batch and I'm loving them! Great ingredients, very fresh and very flavorful too. The different combinations are sublime. I've recently had to make some changes to my diet to be in accordance with my age and overall physical health and such, and everything I need perfectly portioned out for me helps with my progress. I also have a long back and forth commute for work and have no time to food prep without wiping out my weekends entirely - not for THIS middle aged bachelor - absolutely NOPE - so this service is incredibly and efficiently convenient! Factor in what the actual cost of the amount of ingredients necessary to make this many salads for one week, including gas for travel, or public transportation, with inflation and tariffs looming on everything that isn't air, and I find this to be a great cost savings as well. The ROI (return on investment) for me is right where it needs to be. Lastly, I do love these containers. I can take them to work and use them for leftovers from catered client meetings and save even more money.

Happy customer here!

Like another reviewer, I cancelled immediately after ordering, but got charged and received a delivery anyway.

My first impression was great! I had a question about delivery and the response was quick! Looking forward to my first delivery!

The salads taste great and are very fresh.
I love the convenience of having salads already prepared for us!
I needed help with an error I made on my order and they took care of it right away!
😍😍😍

Good Concept...however the lettuce turned brown the very next day although it states 5 to 6 days!!! Not cheap so I will just make my own. Don't waste your money!!

Delicious Salads. Everything was so fresh, flavorful and filling! Big Salads.
I needed to change my delivery for an upcoming week and the customer service guy was so responsive, emailing me right back and very helpful!

Pretty happy with my experience so far. The Lemonsweet bowl was great. The Tuscan bean stew was also good. Feels good to eat clean. Everything arrived fresh. I accidentally signed up with an old email account and I reached out and they fixed it immediately. A mobile app would be nice though. Website works but seems a little outdated. Hoping the future deliveries will remain smooth.

We had only one salad that we enjoyed from their selection of salads and power cups Etc. Supposedly we were part of their reward program called lunch money but never could seem to get any lunch money deductions from our account. I do not recommend Garden cup.

Love the convenience, options and great, healthy meals I’ve been getting from Gardencup for months now. Today my delivery was accidentally taken from my porch by another delivery driver, and in the confusion I contacted Gardencup. Rod @ Gardencup took such good care of my concerns, even after we figured out the problem. Gardencup goes above and beyond when it comes to customer satisfaction!

Absolutely HORRIBLE experience! I signed up for the subscription on 6/6 and cancelled literally the same day on 6/6. On 6/15 I got a text that said my order was being delivered for 6/16. When I reached out they claimed my order was already processed that day. Absolutely RIDICULOUS and a scam! STAY AWAY!!!

I only used it for a couple of weeks, but the second week all the lettuce is wilted. Grapes were already mushy. I cancelled the subscription and they still sent another package even after I put to skip the week and cancel the subscription.

Set up our Gardencup Subscription excited to be able to enjoy salads daily. Scheduled my order for April 14th delivery as I am out of town. My order was just delivered to my house. Reached out to customer service with screenshots, they would not help. There are much better subscription services out there like CookUnity.

I ordered Gardencup with optimism, hoping it would be a convenient and healthy solution for my busy workdays. Unfortunately, my experience was nothing short of a disaster. The shipment was delayed multiple times, and when it finally arrived, the food was completely inedible. I immediately canceled my subscription and removed my credit card information, receiving confirmation for both actions. Yet, despite this, Gardencup still charged me for another shipment and sent me unwanted products.
Throughout this frustrating ordeal, I contacted the company four times via email, seeking answers. Not once did they respond. Their failure to acknowledge cancellation requests and their willingness to charge credit cards for unauthorized purchases raises serious concerns about their business ethics.
Gardencup’s business model is fundamentally flawed. Their product is unstable, highly susceptible to spoilage, and their customer service is nonexistent. They do not honor cancellations, ignore inquiries, and engage in what can only be described as deceptive billing practices.
Consumers deserve transparency, reliability, and respect. Gardencup offers none of these. I strongly advise against purchasing from this company—learn from my experience and take your business elsewhere.

I had been hoping for something similar to Farmer's Fridge, which I had found in NY locations but wasn't available for delivery in Connecticut where we live.

I found Gardencup online and the photos looked very similar to salads I'd gotten through Farmer's Fridge vending machines which were the same price as Gardencup and a well-balanced blend of lettuces with proteins, beans and veggies. Regrettably, when I received my Gardencup salads, most of them were about 90% shredded lettuce, with very little else to it. The jars were packed top to bottom with just lettuce, with less than an inch of other ingredients crammed into the bottom of the container. I also hated the flavors of the dressing; like the Southwest dressing tasted like onion dressing with no spice.

Ultimately, I decided the cost-to-value wasn't working for me and I canceled my subscription. They offered me $10 off to return, but I still need a well-balanced and nutritious salad which they weren't offering. Now when I go into NY where I can find Farmer's Fridge, I bring along a cooler and an ice pack and just load up to bring it home.

I have absolutely NO CLUE where these bad reviews are coming from! I LOVE Garden Cup! Their salads are wonderful, healthy and always fresh. The containers are reusable too. I was worried because my second delivery was a day late. I emailed the company and was given a total refund! I was shocked because my delivery was still coming the following day. Customer service was awesome. I didn’t even ask for a refund but was offered one instantly because it was a day late. These salads are totally worth the cost and convenience. I have never found a ready made salad in the grocery store that is as good as these! I will keep ordering. This is an easy way to be healthier!

Pasta and salami cup very delicious, very happy with purchase, devile egg salad also very good.

I have been a customer for well over a year. I have given them a pass over and over. Service and quality has declined rapidly over the year. Multiple late and missing deliveries, wilted and sour salads I have had to throw away. I get oh sorry responses, no changes.
Customer service that once was amazing is horrible! They do canned responses and don’t look into issues. It’s like they hired AI to respond.
Packaging is so bad (newly changed) I have to carry scissors with me to open the packages while getting salad dressing all over my hands. Company is becoming cheap and sacrificing quality.
Save yourself and don’t order from them!

This is not great food. This service is expensive and I thought the salads were going to taste better. The chicken is plain, hardly any seasonings. The pasta cups are not flavorful at all. Just plain. I’ve had much better pesto. Not a good meal. No flavor
