Boxed Local

I tried something from every part of the menu here, and I wasn't disappointed. I had the Texan brisket BBQ, with smoked jalapeno relish, smoked sausage and chocolate brownie sides. A quick word of warning - if you fancy something cheap and last-minute, BoxedLocal aren't a good choice. You have to order a couple of days in advance. They have very limited delivery times and the food is delivered chilled. (You can reheat it, though I didn't need to.) However... It's obvious that a lot of love goes into this food. The pictures they post are exactly how my order looked. And all of it was delicious, especially the meat! The brisket was tender, juicy and full of flavour without being fatty. The veg was crisp and well-spiced. I can honestly say that was the tastiest sausage I've ever eaten. The relish went really well with what I'd ordered. Communication was great. Because of the way they deliver, it's like great service in a nice restaurant. You can call them and Richard is happy talk you through which sides & relishes go best with which main. (I should have quizzed him on what to drink!) Kaylie rang me on the day to confirm exactly when she'd arrive. On my doorstep, she took the time to talk me through the best way to serve my food. She also mentioned the brownies were vegan and gluten-free, which I wouldn't have guessed. They were moist and extremely chocolatey. So if you're looking for something cheap and cheerful this evening, try elsewhere. If you want a really nice restaurant meal without the hassle and expense you should order from these guys. They'd also be perfect if you're planning a picnic. I've recommended BoxedLocal to my friends and will definitely be ordering again.

Richards food is incredibly tasty and particularly the veggie option which is always a winner for me. Rick and Kaylie have helped cater for me when Ive had friends visit and all my guests whove tried the boxed local food have been super impressed and needless to say the plates have always been clean at the end of the meal despite the generous portion sizes! Fantastic and reliable service and a great concept, would highly recommend.

So so good! Delicious BBQ - the meat is so succulent and flavourful - and the sides are equally delicious. Such good quality food (and great service too) - we cant wait to order again!

Pulled pork was succulent and very tasty rather like a spit roast hog. Not too much BBQ sauce, a blessing for me as i do not like the stuff. The sides were extra special. Priced at 15 some would want more but this was ample for me, and definately cheaper than a chinese. The turkey dinner was good. Loved the sides. Would have been happy with these alone. The vinigarrette dressing for the lettuce was a lovely change to the french/italian/caesar dressing i normally use directly from a bottle. Have placed an order already for next Saturday.
