Meal delivery on the North Shore, made simple

Life on the North Shore runs to school bells, ferry timetables, the bridge commute, and weekend escapes to the beach. Premade is for the weeks where you still want to eat well, but cooking three meals a day isn't on the agenda.

Meals are cooked fresh, delivered chilled, and portioned so the week stays consistent. Real ingredients, no freezer-meal feel. Stock the fridge and you've got back-up for the busy days.

Delivery is NZ-wide every Wednesday and Friday. Meals arrive chilled and ready to refrigerate.

Cooked fresh daily, delivered chilled to the North Shore

Freshness is the whole reason this works. Meals are cooked in our Invercargill kitchen and packed for chilled delivery, landing on the North Shore ready to refrigerate. Pop them straight in the fridge and reheat when you're ready to eat.

You've got 4 days of fridge life on each meal, or up to 3 months in the freezer. Most regulars freeze a couple on delivery day and move them to the fridge the night before. The rest of the box gets eaten across the week, and the freezer pile picks up the slack the week things blow up.

Our meals are:

  • Cooked fresh weekly (not a “freezer meal” experience)

  • Delivered chilled to help maintain freshness

  • Portion-controlled so your week stays easy and consistent

  • Made with real ingredients you can feel good about

Whether you want a fridge stocked with quick lunches, easy dinners, or just a reliable backup plan, Premade helps you stay sorted.

Meals for every kind of week

Premade is for anyone wanting reliable food on hand. Some weeks the meal plan is sorted; other weeks it isn't even started. Having genuinely good meals waiting changes the tone of the week.

North Shore customers typically order Premade for back-to-back commute weeks, busy family schedules with sport and afterschool, post-gym lunches, weeknight dinners on the days nobody is keen to cook, and the kind of weeks where survival mode kicks in by Wednesday. No need to start fresh on Monday. Just have food you can rely on.

The way most regulars use it: a few from-scratch meals during the week and Premade for the days that fill up. The bridge is busy, sport runs late, and dinner shouldn't be the bit that breaks. Stock the fridge once and the second half of the week takes care of itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you deliver to the North Shore?

Yes, every Wednesday and Friday. The North Shore sits inside the standard NZ-wide chilled-delivery zone. Use the address validator at checkout to confirm your specific address.

Which North Shore areas are covered?

Almost every North Shore address sits within the standard chilled-delivery zone, from Devonport and Takapuna through to Albany and the East Coast Bays. The address validator at checkout confirms your specific address in seconds.

How long do meals stay fresh after delivery?

4 days in the fridge from the delivery day, or up to 3 months in the freezer. Most regulars freeze a couple on delivery day and move them to the fridge the night before they're needed.

How fresh are the meals when they arrive?

Meals are cooked the day before they're packed and sent on the courier network. They've never been frozen, and they arrive chilled, ready to refrigerate immediately. The 4-day fridge clock starts on delivery day.

What's the minimum order?

6 meals per order. Order as a one-off any time, or subscribe to weekly auto-delivery for a regular rhythm. There's no required commitment beyond the minimum order itself.

Can I set up weekly meal deliveries?

Yes. Subscribe to weekly auto-delivery and meals arrive each week without you having to reorder. Pause, skip, or cancel any time.

How much is delivery?

Calculated at checkout based on your address. Free shipping on orders over $120.

What types of meals are on the menu?

The menu rotates each cycle and covers four protein types (Chicken, Beef, Lamb, Vegetarian) and three nutritional goals (High Protein, Low Carb, Vegetarian). Customers on the North Shore tend to start with Best Sellers, then mix in seasonal specials. Most regulars sit in the 6 to 12 meals per week range.

How are the meals packaged when they arrive?

Meals are sealed in portion-sized trays, packed in an insulated chilled box with ice packs to keep them at refrigeration temperature in transit. Trays go straight into your fridge on arrival. Tracking activates as soon as the courier picks the box up from our Invercargill kitchen.

What's the difference between Premade meals and supermarket ready meals?

Cooked fresh daily in small batches by chefs, never frozen before delivery, with real ingredients and allergens listed per meal. Compared to typical supermarket ready meals, the texture is closer to home cooking and the menu rotates regularly so you're not stuck with the same six options.

Does Premade meal delivery service cover the North Shore?

Yes. Premade delivers chilled, ready-made meals to the North Shore every Wednesday and Friday on the NZ-wide network. Order by 11:59pm Monday for Wednesday delivery or 11:59pm Wednesday for Friday delivery. The address validator at checkout confirms whether your specific address qualifies.

Where do the ingredients come from?

Ingredients are sourced locally where seasonally available. The kitchen is in Invercargill, which means the South Island has a short ingredient-supply chain; North Island ingredients flow through the same network. Each meal lists its ingredients on the product page.
