Ingredients

My toddler really enjoys these meals and it's reassuring to know that they have such fabulous customer service too. After a recent query, Cherrelle replied the next day and I am completely satisfied with the reply and all of the information provided. Thanks for your prompt reply and diminishing any worries I may have had.

Perfect for juggling newborn life with a toddler!

We've recently had a baby and have found these meals to be a life saver for feeding our 2 year old. It's great to know she's being properly fed at a time where we have very little energy to cook. She absolutely loves the meals, sweet potato curry is a firm favourite!

I cannot thank Pots for Tots enough

I cannot thank Pots for Tots enough. I’m a full time working mum trying to balance everything as you do. To know that I always have an easy nutritious meal for little one to go to has saved my life.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Highly recommend

These meals are an absolute lifesaver for our toddler. He absolutely loves all of them. Great for when we want a break from cooking or when we want to have something that wouldn’t be suitable for him. It is great knowing that they are just as healthy as anything we would make ourselves at home. Highly recommend!

This company saved me..

This company saved me from going absolutely nuts making meals for my boys that they just wouldn’t eat. Anything with vegetables in they would turn away, now I can give them these meals knowing they are home cooked and tasty and full of good stuff (hidden veg for some and not so hidden for others) and it’s been a game changer!
So happy I found these and I feel like my baby has become a much better and more varied eater than my eldest because we found this company sooner.
Meals are always excellent quality and super tasty. Wish they did adult portions!
Thank you!

We love, Pots for Tots!

My son is 2 years old and absolutely loves these meals! As a busy working Mum, knowing I have these home-cooked, healthy, nutritionally balanced meals in my freezer, to provide my son with a variety of options, alongside my own batch cooking makes life so much easier, and guilt free! My only feedback would be to introduce other menu choices, as the meals can become repetitive, especially as we have a fortnightly subscription. The ‘simple’ meals are often only received ‘half full’ but perhaps this is due to the age recommendation of 9+ months. Otherwise, we are a very satisfied customer! And would highly recommend Pots for Tots to our family and friends *****

Really love the food

Really love the food, has made my life so much easier. Only suggestions would be more options as when you use these regualry, they become very samey, and sometimes (not all the tim pots are only half full, which is a shame given the cost.

Great to know they're in my freezer!

Easy to order, neatly packaged and my son loves the food. I use these meals when I haven't got time or just don't have the energy to cook! The meals taste quite similar to my home cooking so I think that's why he enjoys them. They are quite costly but guessing it's because they're handmade and not mass factory produced so I'm happy to pay the extra. Haven't tried the snacks yet but will order some soon!

Potted meals better than the snacks, on the whole ok but v over priced.

Meals are reasonably tasty pots however look NOTHING like the photos. For example, dishes with rice are all potted in together so doesn’t look at all appetising when it’s plated up for your little one. I have been pretty disappointed with the packet food which as the muffins, pancakes etc. They are really quite tasteless and sad looking. Like they need an extra 5 in the oven in the initial cooking stage. I really wanted to love my subscription and have bought from Pots for Tots twice now but it really is expensive for what you’re getting. Shame really.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We sincerely apologise for any disappointment you’ve experienced with our meals and snacks recently.

We take great pride in using quality ingredients, aiming to deliver products that reflect the care and attention we’d put into our own home-cooked meals. We also prioritise minimising packaging to reduce waste, which is why we’ve opted against separate compartments for rice and pasta, as we felt this approach would not be appropriate or sustainable, meaning everything cooks together. While our cooking instructions are provided as guidelines, we understand that results can vary depending on the method used. Rest assured, we’ll share your feedback with our product team for further consideration.

We value all customer feedback and as a loyal customer we'd love to hear more about your experience so please feel free to drop us a note at hello@potsfortots.co.uk if you have anything else to share about your experience.

Disappointing and lacking flavour

Unfortunately my daughter (2yo) was really unimpressed by Pots for Tots and would basically leave them uneaten. I personally found them lacking in flavour too, so didn’t even want to eat her leftovers.

I’ve seen your responses to other reviews saying that it can take up to 15 exposures for a child to like a new flavour but please don’t give me that - my 2yo prefers my flavourful meals from Frive more than these!

In addition, the delivery partner was hopeless. I ended up receding a Thursday delivery on Friday at 8pm and the food was defrosted, leaking, and smelly.

One thing I’ll say though - the customer service was fantastic!

Hi Claire,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how frustrating it can be when let down by delivery partners. It frustrates us too as we have to rely on third-party delivery partners where we have no control over the outcome sometimes so it falls short of the quality of service we would expect for our customers too. However, our team picked this up very quickly and was more than happy to issue a full refund for your order.

We work closely with our children’s dietitian to create meals that are not only nutritionally balanced but have the right balance of flavour in order to introduce herbs and spices and other ingredients to children’s developing palates. As with all things with our little ones, their desire for more or less flavour is hugely varied. Being a small business, we have to try and find a flavour profile that suits most children, so much so that we've had to develop a fussy range as even our core range can be too textured/flavoursome for the palate of some children.

That said, it's great that your little one enjoys an extensive range of flavours - have you tried adding some additional herbs and spices to the remaining meals in your order? We hear that some parents like to add sides, cheese or other little extras they know their children like to eat.

We hope this helps but if you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

These meals are absolutely amazing for my daughter. So far she has enjoyed every single one I have given her and ate everything. She can be picky with textures, but not with these. Will definitely be ordering again

Bad experience- plastic in meals

Unfortunately I did not have a good experience with Pots for Tots.
Whilst feeding my 20 month old daughter a chicken korma dish I found small pieces of plastic, that looked like it had been shredded up with the food. This is highly dangerous. I thought it might have just been that batch of chicken korma. However, when I heated a pasta bolognese I found more small pieces of plastic. I feel very disappointed and have wasted £100 on all these meals.
