Packaging: Mostly recyclable and compostable packaging; low-carbon delivery.
Sourcing: 100% plant-based; donates a meal per box.
Grubby is the UK's leading fully vegan recipe kit. The entire menu is 100% plant-based, which sets it apart from the mainstream kits that treat vegan as one filter among many. Boxes arrive as pre-portioned ingredients you cook in roughly 15 to 35 minutes.
Pricing runs from about £5.75 to £7.25 per portion at full price, with the per-portion cost falling as you add more meals to the box. That is pricier than an omnivore kit at scale, but for plant-based cooks the comparison is really about variety and convenience rather than the lowest possible cost.
It is a B Corp, donates a meal for every box sold, and uses low-carbon delivery. The obvious limitation is that the vegan-only menu is no use to a mixed household.

Frequently asked questions
Is Grubby fully vegan?
Yes - the entire Grubby menu is 100% plant-based, which makes it the main pick if you want a dedicated vegan recipe kit rather than vegan options bolted onto an omnivore menu.
Is Grubby good value?
At full price it is mid-to-upper for a recipe kit, and the per-portion cost drops as you add meals. For vegan households it is the leading option; mixed households will get less use from it.
