Best people best food best price best everything. Above and beyond. We live 700kms away so it's not an easy task to get our meals to us we use in our accommodation. I was in the area one day on an urgent trip so dropped in to put names to faces. Elsa asked what I was doing over there and I said overnight trip to recover a vehicle. She made me wait while she made me food to take on the road to make sure I ate something good while doing a 1400kms round trip. That's customer service.

The meals Eat Real supply make my life simpler, while helping me achieve fitness, health and career goals. The food tastes good , it can be frozen to be used as lunch at work (cheeper and more time efficient, than take away) or evening meals without any preparing. The deliver to my home. You can get further discounts with bulk orders. The Eat real team are exceptional. They support their community in times of hardship for individuals and the wider community. They are inclusive with heart felt integrity. Support this buissness that was created to support others and the local community.

My 16 year old son has been putting in so much effort this year to hit his powerlifting goals, so we decided to take his nutrition to the next level with some personalised meal planning. Elsa has truly come through for us! The meals are incredibly diverse, and my son looks forward to picking out his options each week. Not only do they taste homemade and full of flavour, but they have also made my life as a busy mum so much easier 👏🏻 Eat Real is absolutely top notch, and I love knowing the meals are perfectly tailored to meet all his nutritional needs. Huge thanks to Elsa for making this process seamless and fuelling my son the healthy way! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Extremely happy with the meals each week. Home cooked and really delicious. So happy to find this supplier, as I was ordering frozen meals from elsewhere, that weren't very tasty. I'm able to order food that's cooked right here in Cairns, instead of having food travel long distances. The staff are also beautiful, and very helpful. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to sit down to a delicious, and nutritional meal.
