Love their concept and selection. Over the past couple of years, they have stepped up their game with the quality of their produce. It's good quality, looks good, and is generally pretty fresh. I also like their vegetable options, and some of the prepared and frozen foods, and the breads, many of which come from well known restaurants. With all that said, I do think that the pastries and cookies and brownies could use a little change; I've ordered two or three items and never been thrilled with them. I think some of the meats are a little pricey, but you are paying for delivery so you have to suck it up. Their delivery is reliable, and they text you a couple of times on delivery day. Customer service is pleasant and always helpful. read more

I first tried this company in 2015. Throughout the years this company has been great. However, too many times, some of the ingredients has been missing or expired/spoiled. Additionally, some of the new recipes are not great. I can no longer recommend the company to anyone. When the bag doesn't have all of the high quality ingredients that it has promised, it's no longer convenient and worth the price hikes. read more

BEST MEAL KIT EVER. What's not to love? The food is beyond delicious, the customer service was exceptional, and the local ingredients plus reusable packaging is a total bonus for the environment!! Absolutely love. read more

I'm really happy with G&G!! The recipes are easy to follow and the meals always turn out delicious. I feel like a great chef when I make them! They also help reduce food waste by providing just the right amount of ingredients. It also saves money. The customer service is excellent too. I couldn't be happier with this service! read more

Garnish & Gather - a plate of pasta and a glass of wine - CSA Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Really impressed with our first order. Fresh ingredients and the meals were delicious. Two thumbs up from my husband and kids as well!

Great meal and easy. Love that it is local and there are lots of options for groceries as well. Like the pick up and delivery option. Recommend! read more

What an awesome find! I really am so happy found them. I ordered two meals and a desert recipe as well as some local farmers market goodies like cheese, local mustard and rosemary salt. The recipes were delicious and fresh all I had to do was cook them. Their recipe book was so easy to follow and tasted better than going to any restaurant. I loved making my honey Bundt cakes which I'm so proud of because they turned out delicious and better than any store or restaurant bought version. I highly recommend this business and will be ordering again. read more

G&G is amazing. The quality of ingredients is superb and the recipes are easy to follow, quick and delicious. I love that the meals can be replicated again using the full ingredients and measurements list on the recipe card. I will be using again, for my family and as gifts!! read more

"Seize the day. Gather ye rosebuds while ye may. Why does the writer use these lines? Because he's in a hurry. No. Ding! Thank you for playing anyway." -- Dead Poets Society (1989) I love to cook, I just have no time. I work all day and if I have time to shop, I rarely have any creativity of what I want to cook/buy, etc. Recently I noticed a video pop-up in my news feed on Facebook and there was Kevin Gillespie cooking on the local Fox station and talking about Garnish and Gather and I was intrigued - by both the concept and the shrimp and grits he prepared. Now these services are all over the place - but they are shipped to your door by UPS and the thought of my proteins going through warehouses makes me cringe. G&G has someone hand-deliver them to your door OR you can go pick them up. Sold. I signed up to give it a shot. I was so excited for my bag to arrive, I forgot to put out a cooler for them - luckily I work from home (oops). They delivered my beautiful bag of groceries (Proteins came frozen) and I immediately went thru it like a kid at Christmas. Veggies, fruit, spices, peanuts - everything perfectly portioned for the recipes. Plus recipe cards and a table topic card (now I did get 2 entrees, but only 1 table topic)... That night, we cooked the Shrimp and Grits. There were a couple of typos on the recipe card, but it was grammatical, not procedural so I can over look that. The card took you step by step and it was mostly accurate. The shrimp were larger than I was expecting and needed more than 1 minute per side, but you can certainly cook to your desired doneness for any protein. The grits were creamy and delectable. The veggies were amazing with it (again, my preferences were to cook the green beans an additional minute and maybe deglaze the pan with a little white wine) - but I've saved the recipe and will make this one again. This is the problem with a trained chef cooking with someone else's recipe - I want to tinker with it. What I love about these guys is that they cater to allergies - every recipe has all allergens listed. I can avoid tree nuts easily so they don't ever come in my house. Obviously I wouldn't pick a fish entree anyway, but also easy to avoid. I would love if I could download the recipe cards so I could cook from my iPad, but I bet that happens in the near future as well. I'm pretty green-minded, so less paper is good. The price is right for me - $30 for 2-3 servings of ingredients is what I would easily spend shopping to cook for us anyway - so that doesn't bug me. $10 to deliver... okay maybe a little steep if you are only buying 1 entree, so go pick it up at Cook's Warehouse. But I'm getting 2 each week so it seems less of an issue. Also, I can shop for some local groceries as well (hello H&F bread and Pine Street Bacon being delivered RIGHT TO MY DOOR!) I'm sticking with these guys for awhile as it certainly made dinner in my house easy this week - cannot wait for my groceries to show up again on Monday. read more

Thanks to Lindy for inspiring me to try out Garnish & Gather! I love to cook, I love the idea of cooking local from farmers' markets, and I love the local food scene, but don't have the time or money for babysitters. Enter G&G - they do all the work of getting the recipes from top local chefs and all the fresh, local, organic ingredients from the farmers' markets, and put it in one right-sized portion that I can easily pick up. I pick mine up at J's wine and spirits in Roswell, conveniently located by my office so that I can just stop in on the way to the day care. With fun packaging (including table conversation starters) and premeasured ingredients, the recipes are relatively easy to follow, especially if you're not the kind of person that follows a recipe exactly anyway. (They're not terribly detailed, so I'm not sure how well I could recreate them without the premeasured ingredients, but I'm saving the beautiful cards in the hopes that I will make them again someday). I've found the portions to be just right. As someone who struggles to prepare anything for just 2 people (I worked in my church kitchen where a light day was for 30 people), I like that it's all just the right amount for 2-3 servings, with the protein being spot on and the side being enough for another day. It's not inexpensive, but I do feel I get my money's worth in terms of high-quality, local, organic ingredients, particularly if you consider what it would cost to get these dishes in the restaurants that would feature them. And the whole presentation makes it feel as if I'm joining a celebration of what cooking should be. read more

Garnish & Gather - Sautéed pork chops with mustard sauce and apple barley - CSA Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I received my first delivery this week from G&G and I'm extremely pleased! The quality of ingredients and the ease of preparation is just what I was looking for! I've signed up for the weekly subscription. Looking forward to my next delivery! read more

Love the flavors & trendy recipes. Some chopping involved but very easy to put together. Instructions are easy & all things were easy to understand. A side slaw was so tasty with the chili but the portion could have been bigger. Would love to have more pick up areas for North Fulton/Roswell. Will order again! read more

Delicious recipes that were both easy and educational for future cooking endeavors. I love the prepared food options and that I can get things like duck prosciutto, macaroons, goat cheese, etc. It's great that this service supports local Atlanta chefs, restaurants, and farms. I like that G&G relies on my having more things in my home kitchen than other meal kit services. I do not need a single egg sent with my recipes! This also means that wine is an ingredient option and I love cooking with wine... you just need to have it in the house. (no problem there!) I am really enjoying this service more than other meal kit services that I have tried. It's 11 steps above all the competition! read more

I loved my first meal (Beef Bourguignon) with G&G and I'm looking forward to trying another one soon! read more

Garnish & Gather - Beef Bourguignon - CSA Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Received my first G&G order, 2 meals and several fresh groceries. Amazing on both counts. The meals are unique, super tasty, and really easy to make. The groceries (at least the ones I ordered) were fantastic! It would take me forever to scramble around town to source all of these items. So convenient to have accessibility all in one place and the quality is top-notch. Ordering was easy. Delivery was on time, safe, and they keep in contact with text updates. Looking forward to the next order! read more

@garnishandgather meals are one of a kind...yes you can find the recipe anywhere..but the hassle to go out of your way to buy what you need takes the fun out of it and makes the event too long and by the time you start to cook you are tired...i call this-custom high end meal preparing" all ingredients are premeasured and locally sourced and organic..i had chicken Marsala before at restaurants but never had the guts to make it myself...and it's true what they say..tastes better home made! chicken Marsala over angel hair pasta with wild mushroom blend and lemon dressed arugula salad. simple and perfect! Try them and you will not regret it and to have a meal kit service local and without a fee is just the cherry on top! I look forward to picking my meals every week! It's my Monday dinner in (and lunches at work for next 2 days sometimes). I'm hooked. read more

I met a couple of the Garnish and Gather folks recently at a Yelp event. We chatted a ton about the concept and the meals. I love that the ingredients are locally sourced and that you can even try meals created by local chefs! I was sold rather quickly. My SO...no so much. But he was willing to give it a try. Our first meal was an adobo chicken with cheddar grits. It was actually a Philippine adobo with coconut milk and rice wine vinegar, which really threw me off at first. I got really confused as I sorted through the ingredients and had to Google it. But yeah, it's a thing. themoreyouknow.gif And it was DELICIOUS. I could have eaten an entire pot of those grits. I decided that since everything is portioned out and mostly prepped, this would be perfect for my SO to handle. I love him to death but he usually sticks to cooking bacon and eggs, and isn't really a clean-as-you-go type so the kitchen's always a disaster afterward. So last night, he tackled the braised oxtails with rutabaga and carrot mash. Again, DELICIOUS. And minimal mess! The best part was that actually cooking the meal convinced him that G&G is worthwhile. Instead of spending $30 on delivery pizza and breadsticks and regretting it afterward, we could spend the same amount on a wholesome, rich meal that wasn't much work. And yeah, a pizza will yield next-day leftovers, while G&G is portioned out for two entrees, but you're getting local, fresh, real food! I pick up at Hodgepodge in East Atlanta and it's only a tiny bit out of my way. I'm looking forward to trying some of the many, many add-ons G&G offers. You can get fresh meat, produce, baked goods, condiments and salsas, etc. Personally, I'm going to start working my way through the H&F, Sugar Moon Bakery, and Little Tart Bake Shop offerings. Mmmm fresh, local sweets. homerdrool.jpeg My only slight issue is that the recipe cards are occasionally unclear. It can be a little confusing how they refer to items. Example: they referred to both "veggies" (carrot and rutabaga) and "veggie mix" (prepped container of carrot, celery, and leeks), so you had to stop and figure out that the "veggies" and "veggie mix" were two different things and you were cooking them two different ways. I had a similar bout of confusion with items in the adobo recipe. Perhaps capitalizing any pre-prepared items (like "veggies" vs "Veggie Mix") would help. In any case, it only takes a few seconds to figure it out and then you're on your way! My favorite thing about G&G is that we can be more adventurous in the kitchen without the fear of failure. My SO and I give it two thumbs way up! read more

Our first G&G box was amazing! The recipes are just enough for the two of us and we love that they incorporate local, fresh ingredients! It's been a great way to break up the monotony of our usual weeknight meals, and we look forward to trying new, easy-to-follow recipes together! Everything has exceeded our expectations and we're elated that we can do so while also supported a local, budding Atlanta business! read more

Best meal delivery service. Quality of food is 10/10 and portion size is perfect! Highly recommend!

I love Garnish & Gather! The meals are delicious and very easy to prepare. I love how many choices they give you and that you can also order local groceries. The delivery service is also great! I love that they deliver it in a cooler bag just in case you aren't home. read more

I was gifted Garnish & Gather for Xmas from a thoughtful friend. I picked up the provisions today since delivery isn't an option in the hinterlands of Avondale Estates. It was worth the drive up to Buckhead! What a treat, I now have a whole head of radicchio, enough lettuce and satsumas to last a month, and the mealkits were beautifully put together. Even their font and packaging is elegant. I appreciate that the owners source from local organic farms and the recipes were easy to follow. One of my choices was the crab ravioli, which didn't take long to prepare and was delicious. The amounts noted are modest compared to what you actually get, which is ample for 2 people and generous for 1, with leftovers. I'm looking forward to the next meals that came in my order. Highly recommended as a current alternative to in-restaurant dining. read more

The Garnish & Gather Meal kits have been a life savor for that dreaded daily question, "What's for dinner?". I love how everything portioned so that there is hardly any waste. The recipes have been so easy to put together and my kids are loving that I make unique dishes throughout the week. I also love how I can add my favorite local grocery items to my order too! read more

This is incredible! I order meals because my husband enjoys cooking but tends to make the same things. Especially with Covid, we have been looking for other alternatives than eating out. This was the answer! The ingredients are restaurant-quality and even I can make a meal and I hate cooking. I would recommend everyone try this and you have a customer for life!! read more

I really like that you can order groceries from local businesses as well as meal kits, and we loved all of the kits and items we got with our first order. Delivery went smoothly and we've already ordered again for next week. Looking forward to trying more recipes! read more

My 1st time trying this company was this passed Sunday and I was absolutely impressed with EVERYTHING! The food was fresh. The instructions in the recipe were clear and easy! The icing on the cake was the Table Topic that includes something interesting to talk about during dinner. I had planned to order more for next week but I missed the cut off time (Wed b4 12) that's the only downfall. read more

We've tried many of the meal delivery services and by far like this service the best. Quick and easy to cook with local ingredients. Feels like someone curated the farmers market for you. Love that they deliver to your door on Sundays so your food is not sitting out all day. Oh and being able to add other groceries to your order really makes this service perfect--no having to run out to the store for food for lunch or breakfast. read more

Super-easy pickup (I walked over to get it--locations all throughout the city + delivery available too). Beautiful presentation. Meal prep was fun and quick, and dinner was insanely delicious! So much flavor. Ordering is very easy and, at least for dinners, g&g's website makes clear what's in each meal--critical for me (celiac) and I'm sure much-appreciated by people with other allergies and dietary restrictions (they seem to always offer at least 1 veggie option). The groceries on offer are great, too. Little Tart pastries, H+F breads, Pine Street Market meat, Banner butter, Johnston Farms dairy, fresh local seasonal organic produce... Yes. The entire order is packed into a reusable grocery tote with a card with your name on it (except the refrigerated stuff--that's in a separate cooler, also bagged with your name on it). Pickup was simple and quick. Love the local vendors and fresh, often organic ingredients. We'll definitely order again and will also make last night's recipe again, too. (A great way to expand the dinner repertoire) read more

First delivery of Garnish & Gather came this week. It's definitely a step above Blue Apron and I love that it's local! The ingredients are sourced locally as well- over all a taste good / feel good experience! read more

Garnish & Gather has been a lifesaver since grocery shopping has been more challenging these days. We love supporting local farmers while also having delicious produce delivered to our door. I have too many favorites to list, but we've really enjoyed the TGM bread, caly road goat cheese, strawberries, and local arugula. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that I feel like there could be more prepared food options or variety. It's the same ones week after week, so I'd love to see more of a rotating variety. read more

I have tried Garnish & Gather for about 6 weeks and I am so impressed with the excellent quality of the locally sourced ingredients, the variety of the dishes they offer, the ease of preparation (thanks for chopping my garlic and onions, guys and gals), the proper/generous portion sizes. I have always cooked from scratch. Still, it's easy to get into a rut with meal prep. G&G is almost like a night out. The prep is easy and the meal is a delicious something I have not had before. Even if you are not a cook, you ought to try G&G. They make preparation super simple. read more

I'm crazy about this company. The concept is genius and impeccably executed. The menus are interesting but not too snooty. The food is delicious, plentiful and I look forward to our next order! The presentation is fabulous. I could easily omit the the fact that I had the food delivered, but I had to show off the cool bag and recipe cards to my guests. They loved it as much as I did. read more

Can't tell you how much I love this company. Truly a life-saver for a busy single mom who wants to prepare wholesome, sustainable, delicious meals. Easy to use website, high-quality sustainable food from local farmers, and easy to follow directions. Love. Love. Love. read more

Love this meal delivery service for gourmet dinners that my husband and I have fun cooking together. Never get bored because every week is so different and the pricing is more than fair considering the quality of the ingredients and focus on local/organic. Also great desserts and we like the local produce and other groceries available too. read more

The food is sourced locally with recipes from Atlanta chefs. The packaging is great (I use their tote bags as my new lunch / picnic bags). Some meals are better than others, but you can also get prepared food and groceries from top shops and restaurants, if you want. My girlfriend loves that we can just order baked goods (and raw cookie dough) from Little Tart's Bakery. The service has also inspired to try and visit some of the restaurants we've cooked or gotten ingredients from. It's the best quality meal prep service I've come across, and I've tried Hello Fresh, Blue Apron, Freshly, and more. read more

An amazing company. Excellent execution. Have used G&G numerous times and am yet to be disappointed. Highly recommend!

Love this meal delivery service. The ingredients are fresh, the menus great and I feel quite proud of myself to be able to make a gourmet, restaurant quality meal with so little skill and work on my part. read more

Thank you G & G for providing a locally sourced meal service! This week's food was DELICIOUS, and the pick-up location was super convenient. Our family will look forward to ordering more yummy meals in the very near future :) read more

So I really loved this company but have put up with a number of missteps. Today was the last straw when my delivery never showed up. Took someone an hour and half to call me back, said the delivery was scheduled for tomorrow which was a mistake. They never deliver on Monday! When you are counting on dinner to show up at your door, really sucks to have to scramble to find an alternative. Very nice ingredients, recipes, etc. but now worth the aggravation. read more

so convenient and such a beautiful product i loved that the veggies were chopped in my first meal it made cooking that much easier as a working mom :) also the fact that i can order groceries and FLOWERS wow. read more

My new go to for learning how to cook and what tastes good together. Wonderful customer service experience, too. Recommend using to anyone.
