Our take

Plateway was founded to provide its hungry and loyal customers with the best DIY meal kits. It focuses first and foremost on customer satisfaction, allowing users to choose from a wide range of restaurants and foods.

Plateaway works by allowing you to choose your favourite meal kit with just a few clicks, before delivering the chosen meal kit directly to your door in 2-3 days. At the same time, its simple step-by-step video instructions show you how to make and plate your kit.

The popularity of meal kits has risen dramatically in recent years in light of the global shift in the hospitality industry, meaning users can get their favourite restaurant meals even if they can't access the restaurant in person. This makes it perfect to do with loved ones or to send to colleagues or clients as a gift.

This approach has made Plateaway the UK's largest aggregator of restaurant kitchen meal kits, working with brands including SushiDog, Blondies Kitchen, and Patty&Bun. With a wide range of foods, including Japanese, Italian, Middle Eastern, as well as drinks and desserts, Plateaway has something for everyone.
