### 3/5 — Bugs

*2026-06-28, version 3.1.2*

Tapping search brings up a search bar but no txt prompt. Tapping it again and still no text entry prompt, only on the third touch you can then enter text.

### 4/5 — Handy

*2026-05-09, version 3.1.2*

Very handy to have the app on the phone. 
Generally works well but there are occasional glitches when a reduced price offer seems not to be applied to an item that is on regular re-order already ‘in the basket’, even on refresh. This means I have to add the item on offer and delete the one already in the basket, or move the latter to a later date. 
The ‘skip’ button for when you don’t need a regular purchase on a particular week is also helpful, but can be a bit slow.
These glitches are the only reason for not giving 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Fresh

*2026-04-04, version 3.1.2*

Love the vegetables , always fresh !

### 4/5 — Gorgeous veg

*2025-04-28, version 2.2.7*

Gorgeous veg which is delivered to your door, what’s not to love?

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2025-03-13, version 2.2.4*

Abel & Cole is a great company that lives its core values, their products are fresh and delicious, all their meat and veg taste so good compared to supermarkets’ food, there is a world of difference, their customer service is unbelievably friendly and efficient. If you care, they care, they won’t brush you off or let you down. They even call you back to keep you posted with what they have done to address your issue.
Thanks to the app, I can adapt my weekly delivery, swap the items I don’t need for something else that meets my fancy, it’s very easy to use and I get all the information I need about each product.
I absolutely love it and I have already recommended Abel & Cole to family and friend!

### 5/5 — Organic shopping made easy

*2025-03-07, version 2.2.2*

Love Abel & Cole and love this app! The app makes it so easy to organise our weekly food shops and navigate all the delicious foods and offers they have. Would highly recommend Abel & Cole to anyone trying to be more healthy in their food choices or wanting to support more sustainable farming!

### 5/5 — Abel and Cole is brilliant

*2024-11-23, version 2.1.3*

Ethical, high quality, minimal packaging, great range of products. So much better than the supermarkets!

### 5/5 — Best thing about being fresh 🌟

*2024-09-12, version 2.0.97*

Organic farming

### 3/5 — Frustrating App

*2024-08-31, version 2.0.95*

I am a longstanding Able & Cole Box lover… years of veg boxes! The app should surely make the process of ordering, altering or cancelling the box easier nor more complicated - why do I have to sign in to the app nearly every time I use it? Please make this process easier. Love the produce but do not love the app.

### 5/5 — the BEST 10 stars

*2024-07-31, version 2.0.89*

Refreshing a company that ACTUALLY cares a company that actually wants to continuously improve in service a company that is continuously asking for your input on ways they can improve aimply because they WANT TO I cant praise Abel and Cole enough ive had moments where I thought I was going to get paid and got paid late or moments where I had family emergencies and couldnt pay for a few days after receiving my order and Abel and Cole were completely understanding and HUMAN and allowed me to pay at a later date compassion and empathy is something MOST companies lack but not Abel and Cole theyre morals are high which means their standards are even higher

### 4/5 — Great company, lovely food

*2024-07-09, version 2.0.87*

Great company, lovely food… seriously great quality meats too… the only improvement I can think off would be to let the customers decide what is a « favourite «

### 5/5 — Fresh fruit and vegetables

*2024-07-08, version 2.0.86*

I love this company I love the fact that all products are fresh, recyclable containers and I’m supporting local farmers

### 5/5 — Life changing !

*2024-05-29, version 2.0.80*

Able & Cole has actually been life changing for me . Suffering with a serious health issue for years & needing to get my diet right had been such a challenge . I can get everything I need from them . I get organic fruit & veg & can make great bone broth from the carcass they sell . The micro greens & mushrooms are a great add on when I’m burnt out but need good nutrition . Great choose of dairy free & gluten free . They even cover my digs needs . We are healthier & happy . 
 The delivery is convenient. The lack of plastic covering my food is refreshing . Recycling is awesome . 
My passion for helping sustainable farmers & producers thrive in the uk is met by using able & Cole . Plus I’m even spending less & waisting less .  THANKYOU !

### 5/5 — Automatic scheduling of items

*2024-05-09, version 2.0.78*

This makes it very difficult to alter as it’s not always obvious that an item has been automatically added for every week or two weeks. For example, I get the message that I have no scheduled items but lentils get delivered every week despite me not having ordered every week.

### 3/5 — Good products, sneaky payments

*2024-05-08, version 2.0.78*

Good products but I dislike the way they deduct funds automatically from your payment details when you haven’t completed orders for future weeks. 
This is incredibly sneaky and annoying, I’ve had to close my account with them.

### 5/5 — Quality fruit & Vegetables!

*2024-04-24, version 2.0.77*

Always excellent fresh quality. Great friendly service from delivery drivers. Website and app easy to navigate.

### 5/5 — Great selection of foods

*2024-03-23, version 2.0.64*

I am always pleased with my order. The website is clear and informative which helps to make a good decision.

### 1/5 — Organic food great not so the app!

*2026-02-15, version 3.1.1*

So the food is fabulous and I order every week. 
However had a new iPhone this week and now the app no longer works.  It doesn’t open and I get a message telling me where my data is stored 🤷‍♀️
I have uninstalled, reinstalled and checked for updates all to no avail…
Anyone any idea how to fix this?

### 1/5 — iPhone App is buggy

*2026-01-13, version 3.1.1*

Updated my regular order of almond milk next week (not this week) by one bottle and in the process of doing so it cancelled my order for this week.

### 1/5 — Shame.. the app is useless

*2024-06-11, version 2.0.82*

Can’t even use the service because the app won’t add my payment details even after confirming with the bank and trying atleast dozen times the app can’t add my payment details. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — App account not working

*2024-02-26, version 2.0.60*

The app doesn’t recognise my account. Using the web page is way too complicated.

### 1/5 — Price

*2022-12-27*

Price is listed as Pounds, so unable to use in Australia.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2022-11-10, version 2.0.10*

I can’t use the app because the only way it lets you log in is if you have Cookies enabled. You can’t just manually log in with email and password. So frustrating!!

### 1/5 — Hopeless!

*2022-09-05, version 2.0.3*

Three attempts to add credit card and despite confirming card in bank app it still doe register in A&C app. 
I tried to add items to basket - nothing happened ! 
My first and only attempt at shopping at A&C.

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2022-07-25, version 1.0.20*

I get to the login page on my iPad and the keyboard does not pop up when I tap the login boxes. It was working fine until a few weeks ago.

### 1/5 — Buggy app, signing up process and data not properly handled

*2022-06-07, version 1.0.17*

Just registered and I am not impressed. The app is bad overall, is not simple enough, it takes a long time to load (not my internet connection as everything else loads well), it doesn’t remember my cookies preferences so I have to keep saying that I don’t marketing or analysis cookies and it doesn’t recognise my postcode either. When signing up apparently there was an error on the details and wouldn’t let me sign up but also didn’t tell me what was wrong so I had to try and sign up multiple times until it worked (I tried both on the app and website). I haven’t tried the actual food/delivery yet but so far my experience has not been great and it feels like my data is not properly protected (as you collect cookies that I don’t want to even when I say no). Please make a decent app and give the user the freedom to chose how data is handled.

### 2/5 — Awful system!

*2023-12-16, version 2.0.52*

So, if you forget your password, it doesn’t send you one through to reset! Everything is tied to your address!? It’s the only account that ever had issues resetting my password on.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Excellent quality

*2026-07-09, version 3.1.2*

I find the products being sold on the Abel & Cole Platform exceptionally healthy and of high quality. Eating clean on another level!

### 5/5 — Great salad and soup kits

*2026-03-29, version 3.1.2*

Eating more fresh veg since receiving these boxes.  Ingenious salads with ingredients that I would not have thought of putting together that, in fact, make for wonderful recipes.

### 5/5 — Great food and easy ordering

*2026-02-02, version 3.1.1*

Great range of food from B-corp, high welfare, to organic and all easy to order on the app. Best are the veg and fruit boxes with limited to no plastic used. You really notice the difference in comparison to the amount of plastic from a supermarket shop - scary!

### 5/5 — So far excellent !

*2026-01-30, version 3.1.1*

I have just received my second box of organic veg and fruit - absolutely love the first two boxes - so fresh and tasty. Really enjoying experimenting with different vegetables  - never normally buy uncooked beetroot and today roasted the beetroot and it was delicious ! Cannot normally buy organic sweet potatoes locally and again the quality and taste is so much better. I’ve always brought as much organic as possible but the supermarket organic is no comparison to what I have had from Abel & Cole

### 5/5 — Organic Fanatic

*2026-01-26, version 3.1.1*

This is a great organic delivery company, tasty ethically farmed goodness straight to my door with a friendly smile 
Thank you!

### 5/5 — Lovey organic food, lovely people!

*2025-12-03, version 3.1.0*

I’ve been an Abel and Cole customer for decades, during which I’ve moved house 3 times. No A&C would be a deal breaker if I moved again! 
They delivered food to me reliably during the early Covid days of uncertainty and scarcity. They deserve my loyalty for that!
Their customer service team help kindly, fairly and efficiently in the rare event of something going wrong and are open to suggestions. The delivery staff are always friendly and helpful.. 
Above all else, the food is good quality, healthy and often come with a creative recipe. Thank you, Abel and Cole!

### 5/5 — Great food

*2025-11-25, version 3.0.9*

Great food, great service, great ethics.

### 5/5 — Transitioning

*2025-10-05, version 3.0.8*

A strange title maybe, but having been unable to afford real quality Organic food for a number of years, I had to go back to the odd bits and pieces of organic foods in supermarkets. I made the decision eventually that having had 8 years of several episodes of ‘chaos with cancer’, that ABLE AND COLE had to become one of my priorities in life if I were to survive longer than my mother did, dying at 67 from bone cancer. 
Organic food for me, is less about taste (though this is always a bonus)than knowing I am consuming ethically produced NO SPRAYING OR VACCINES, OR CRUELTY TO ANIMALS, than anything else. 
Abel & Cole provide me with that safety… so I am gradually transitioning, as & when finances allow, to consume only Organic or whatever percentage I can of their produce. Under the guidance of a highly skilled VEGAN Nutritionist,  I am guided to consume meat, as my body needs it! So A&C help me achieve this, and I am truly grateful as I feel safe with them! Organic living saves lives! Thank you Abel&Cole! 💚❤️💚

### 5/5 — Best fruit and veg in one place

*2025-05-05, version 2.2.7*

Love the quality, choices and the ability to swap large box items

### 5/5 — Wonderful produce, variety and service

*2025-04-19, version 2.2.7*

I am even more grateful for Abel & Cole since my local organic, packaging free, refill shop closed. A&C sell everything they did, many refillables (zero waste) and everything is wonderful quality. They also have a mouthwatering selecting of ready meals and treats, as well as their top quality fresh produce. And the weekly delivery runs like clockwork. Highly recommend!
