### 2/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-11, version 1.9.12*

This needs to be redesigned. It’s a nightmare.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-02-19, version 1.9.12*

Doesn’t even recognise patient number and DOB

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-02-14, version 1.9.12*

Used app previously, but deleted & forgot old password. Unable to change password and log in. Created new account on secondary email. Ordered two out of three meals for the next day, before getting kicked out. Unable to get back in.  Nobody can help me with this. Apparently the app is really hit and miss. Mostly miss.

### 1/5 — Do not download do not try and use.

*2026-01-31, version 1.9.12*

Does not work. Avoid at all costs.

### 1/5 — RMH Melbourne

*2026-01-31, version 1.9.12*

Useless App after logging in once was not ever able to re-login to place further orders and still mistakes were made upon delivery of food.
Hence the reason manual labour should always be maintained just because you can automate something doesn’t mean you should stupid people

### 1/5 — Seriously….Dumb As….

*2026-01-29, version 1.9.12*

What, prey tell is the Facility ID , and where do you find it. Couldn’t get past this point to register. Stick to calling the kitchen to avoid using this silly App

### 1/5 — Yikes! So bad!

*2026-01-27, version 1.9.10*

I used this app two years ago when my mom was in the hospital. No issues at all. I was admitted to the hospital today and ordered dinner through the app. I have now spent 90 minutes trying to log in to order breakfast for the morning and am ready to throw my phone out the window. Error messages in every screen. Kicks me back to the login screen halfway though. Where did the ability to screen my barcode go?? It was there three hours ago. The fourth digit of my birth year keeps disappearing, so it’s impossible to get past that page. It didn’t like my hospital ID when I manually type it in. What a piece of trash app.

### 1/5 — Can’t enroll

*2026-01-25, version 1.9.10*

YYYY format truncates last digit of year once I leave that data field. Enrollment fails on every attempt.

### 1/5 — Facility ID not recognised

*2025-12-30, version 1.9.10*

This app and the whole call centre process is abhorrent. Currently staying in a Hunter New England hospital. Have followed the directions, restarted my phone and connected to the public wifi. Apparently the Facility ID ‘NSWHealth’ is not recognised and I need to try again later. Have tried many MANY times. I called the Cbord customer number and followed the prompts as directed on the website but they only led me to callcentre people who deal with NSW Health STAFF matters, not patient matters. Someone was being sourced to call me to sort this but, now 4 hours later, I’m still waiting. Cant create an account, cant skip as guest, cant order my meals for the next few days that I’m stuck in hospital. Fix this please.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2025-12-24, version 1.9.10*

Did you commission a child with the APP development? Don’t even log in

### 3/5 — Works ok

*2025-11-20, version 1.9.10*

Performance is laggy but it does work. My only complaint is you have to log in every time, at least let me stay logged in.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2025-11-18, version 1.9.9*

Wouldn’t log in even after going through the painful process of setting up an account. Please fix this app. A big waste of time when all I want to do is sleep after a very long day and night.

### 1/5 — Not working at Wesley Hospital

*2025-11-17, version 1.9.9*

The app accepts all my details and then says it does not not match the details got this admission. But the details are right. I have tried multiple times and have given up.

### 1/5 — Not getting in

*2025-11-16, version 1.9.9*

Not getting in pass the login did everything and can’t get in dunno

### 1/5 — Won’t work, don’t bother

*2025-11-15, version 1.9.9*

Tried to register 5 times but not working. Stupid

### 1/5 — Wow Just Wow

*2025-11-14, version 1.9.9*

Should have read the reviews first before downloading. What a waste, does not let you past log in screen.USELESS!

### 1/5 — App  failure

*2026-08-21, version 1.9.12*

This app is terrible and not updated with correct patient information.

### 1/5 — Terrible Ap

*2026-08-21, version 1.9.12*

I won’t even waste my words. Nothing good at all about this Ap.

### 1/5 — Utterly Abysmal

*2026-07-24, version 1.9.12*

That this is even allowed to be used in the hospital environment is a travesty. Nothing works. Call centre permanently engaged. Just dreadful. Shameful.

### 1/5 — Can’t create account

*2026-06-27, version 1.9.12*

Downloaded app, entered in hospital code, date of birth and patient UR number but app says the information doesn’t match known admission

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-05-23, version 1.9.12*

Can login but can’t order anything

### 1/5 — UWMC

*2026-05-18, version 1.9.12*

This app simply does not work. Always says it can’t connect and then asks for your facility ID, only to kick you back out to the log in screen.

### 1/5 — Worked then stopped

*2026-04-28, version 1.9.12*

Won’t even let me log in. Help fix this

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-03-28, version 1.9.12*

Put a breakfast order. It said error and when I refreshed, an order was placed - with none of the items I ordered

### 1/5 — App don’t work

*2026-03-22, version 1.9.12*

This app would be great if it worked you can not log in at all!! Just go round and round from log in to facility log in and back to main log in that’s it !

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-03-20, version 1.9.12*

The app is god awful and doesn’t work with the hospital half the time at least for me the whole time.im a younger man and i felt like this was useless and god forbid an elderly person trying to order food with this

### 5/5 — 💅🏼

*2026-06-03, version 1.9.12*

this app has made ordering food while in hospital so much easier for me, I hate having to call the kitchen to order food or just circling what I want on a menu. I really like that I can choose the times I want to eat at too! No more getting my breakfast delivered at dumb o clock in the morning and it getting cold by the time I wake up and want to eat. You can also cancel/change your order as long as it’s not during the timeframes of each meal if you forget something or change your mind. I had no issues signing up for an account and no issues placing my food orders either. I think more hospitals should use this or have something like it!

### 5/5 — It does work

*2026-04-30, version 1.9.12*

App works fine, I think all these reviews don’t know how to sign-up properly. 

Your MRN and hospital code are needed. If you entered properly it brings you to the order page. 

App is very basic and stripped to almost nothing. But get your order in before midnight and they rarely mess it up.

### 5/5 — Did what was advertised

*2026-04-30, version 1.9.12*

Showing some love after seeing a lot of hate.  Followed the instructions that were given, was pretty straight forward.  Was nice to see a picture of all the meals so you get a better perspective of what to expect.

### 5/5 — No issues

*2026-03-01, version 1.9.12*

My son was admitted to CHEO. No issues with the app. Maybe the poor ratings come from some misunderstanding about the hospital code/patient number? You’re not supposed to use that to login but instead during the account creation process using your own email.

### 5/5 — Useful app, no technical issues

*2025-08-27, version 1.9.8*

Made use of this during a recent stay, and it worked well overall. The interface was a little bit confusing at first, but it was really helpful to be able to order what I wanted whenever was convenient during the different meal windows. It did log me out during the same day which was a little annoying, but not a big deal. Didn’t haven’t any issues with ordering and everything arrived pretty quickly (within 15-30 min).

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2024-07-22, version 1.9.4*

You don’t have to make a phone call. Just open the app and place your order.

### 5/5 — Food service

*2021-11-06, version 1.6.17*

Downloaded the app , it was super easy , made my order ,got my order didn’t wait to long for my food.

### 5/5 — Worked great for me

*2021-06-16, version 1.5.4*

I am not sure why so many people had such a difficult time using the app. It worked great for me. It took me a minute to figure out how to make an account but once I figured it out this app made ordering meals a breeze for the whole 2 days I was in the hospital (for anyone struggling trying to make an account follow the instructions on the back of the hard copy of the hospital cafe menu the hospital gives you. I somehow managed to over look those institutions my first few attempts trying to make an account).
 I really loved that the app had a picture for each of the food menu items, and that it could let you physically see your order before sending it in. It really helped me be more decisive and ensure I didn’t forget anything I wanted 😊

### 5/5 — So easy and convenient!

*2021-04-16, version 1.5.4*

My first time using the app. I loved looking at the items before I ordered them. So easy to select what I wanted as I went through each category. I liked how I knew how much of each category I could order. It was so helpful! I also got my food really fast! I’d totally use it again.

### 5/5 — Worked great for me

*2020-10-31, version 1.4.6*

I was easily able to download the app, set up my own account and order all meals for the next day in about 15 minutes. Very simple and easy to use. I did notice that there was a harder time ordering in the morning vs the day before. Being in the hospital for many days I tend to walk up early, like 5am. I realized I’d forgotten to order breakfast the day before for that morning, and it took a few tries to get the app to take it.  Overall a very pleasant experience and I raved about it  to all the nurses that helped me.
