Why We're Different

If you want real food instead of ultra-processed, mass-produced factory meals made to a budget -

Dinner's Ready is your answer.

Our Passion

Is tasty, healthy, real food. We really enjoy eating good food, and would like you to too! To achieve that real home-cooked flavour and quality our chefs cook everything by hand, exactly like you would at home. And each has their own speciality - casseroles, curries, pasta, comfort food, soothing desserts. They've done the cooking so you don't have to. All you have to do is heat and eat.

Our Food

It's all hand-cooked using only the best real-food produce - not the food-substitutes and chemicals that are used in the processed meals made by manufacturers. And it's nutritious with a high protein content. (Our Butter Chicken is 66% pure chicken - some supermarket meals contain as low as 16%.) We snap-freeze all our meals as soon as they're made, so that all that beautiful flavour and nutrition is sealed in. (More about why we're different here.)

Our Meals

We have a big variety of hand-made meals - some are single serve, and others are to share. Here's our full menu. Plus we have meals that are gluten-free, dairy-free and vegetarian. And a great range of 'bundles' - selections of meals for easy home delivery

Our Customers

Who buys our meals? Anyone who loves nutritious, real-food, home-style cooking but doesn't have the time (or want) to cook it themselves. Our customers include busy workers, parents, retirees, those on home-care packages, holidaymakers, lots who work from home, plenty watching their weight or protein content, and many who just need a break. We also supply to sports groups, clubs, Government departments and corporate offices for their staff.

Our Stockists

In addition to making home deliveries our meals are also stocked in a large range of quality independent retailers around Canberra and the Snowy Mountains.

Delicious and hearty meals that, ​unlike many other pre-made meal services, ​truly taste homemade. Friendly service and convenient and efficient delivery - twice a week.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the meals you delivered to my friend.....
She was blown away and hasn’t stopped raving about how delicious the meals were.
​The entire experience from ordering to delivery was impeccable, and I would highly recommend your service. Thanks again.
★★★★★
I’m a chef by trade so it’s weird not to cook my own meals, but these meals are the next best thing and so much better than the other pre-made meals.
I have recommended you to a few new mum friends and I know they have ordered as well! Thanks again!
★★★★★
Can I say your meals are the best.
All other brands do not taste like real home-cooked meals, and yours certainly do.

Our pasta - all made by hand, as only an Italian can.

Our pasta - all made by hand, as only an Italian can.
The ethos of Italian food - simplicity, a deep respect for food, and using the very best ingredients you can. And then knowing how to treat those ingredients - which takes knowledge, experience and care.

Our Italian chef is passionate (and possibly obsessive) about all of these steps. There's even a meter in the kitchen that measures the level of humidity, and the recipe for making the pasta changes slightly according to the levels that day.
All his recipes have been amended so that when the pasta is frozen, and then reheated, it remains just as perfect as when it was first made.

All this love and attention to detail really does show in his food. The flavour and texture of the pasta are second to none, and you can tell that the sauces have been tended to with care and slowly simmered to allow the flavours to develop and deepen, and for the meat to become beautifully tender.

All that attention means that there's nothing left for you to do. Just heat and eat. And enjoy!
