Can I pick up my provisions any time during the week?
We allow you to pick up provisions that are ordered directly from the website on Friday and Saturday mornings. If you order them with your meals, they will be delivered with your food on Wednesday (Monday if you did not order for Wednesday).
Please note: Chicken salad, tuna salad & overnight oats are only delivered with meals on Mondays.

What's up with these new cooler bags?

Newsletters with the menu come out on Thursday afternoons, which allow you to go directly to the order form. You will also get a reminder on Sunday mornings.
