First time to the new Prep location for lunch and to pick up our fav ash sourdough. Perfect cappuccino and loved the Italian truffle sandwich. Very cosy decor and exceptional service by Michelle, Lindsay and team. Will be back soon.
Beautiful restaurant and delicious food! I had the Truffle Italian Sandwich and it was so simple but probably the best Sandwich I've had. I wanted to try everything, so I brought home the Tuna Poke Bowl and Mediterranean Chicken Bowl for dinner too. Everything was amazing! Highly recommend!
Zak and his team are just amazing. Not only did they make a family event of ours extra special with spectacular food and presentation, but we stock the Prep frozen meals across all of our family members homes to make having a delicious and convenient meal so easy. Thanks!!
The food here is consistently fresh, delicious, and so thoughtfully prepared. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or looking for a healthy, balanced meal, they have something for everyone. My partner and I recently attended a weekend dinner pop-up at their new location, and it was absolutely fantastic! The atmosphere was lovely, the menu was creative, and every dish was perfectly executed. We’ll definitely be attending more of these pop-ups in the future.
We had a great experience working with Prep for catering for a party with about 60 guests. We were very impressed with Hayden, who helped us throughout the whole process. He was super knowledgeable, friendly and professional, and made the entire process easy for us. Anytime we had a question we received a quick and detailed response. We ordered the barbecue buffet and some grazing boards from the catering menu, and the food was delicious. They were also very helpful with figuring out options for different dietary restrictions. Everything exceeded our expectations :) I would highly recommend Prep if you need catering for an event!!
Fabulous food on the go! Absolutely love the incredible, healthy, delicious lunch options. The bowls are so good and you don’t have to feel any “fast food” guilt as everything is just as good for you as it tastes. I have also had several meals from their well stocked freezer, salmon, butter chicken, curries, all of it’s delicious and if you don’t want to make sides they have a fridge full of sides to match the frozen entrees. Lunch and dinner made easy. They also now have Happenstance fresh bread available. This is my go to spot for food if I’m in Cobourg, hungry and in a hurry. If you haven’t tried it you’re missing out.
BLOWN AWAY!!! AND SO EZ TO DO BABY!!! OMG!!! Supporting local, supporting ourselves. First visit & definitely will be regular patrons. Their products are available in other nearby locations including Foodland. For lunch sweetie & I shared a Sesame Chicken Wrap - sesame chicken / kimchi fried rice / sesame scallions / kimchi / sriracha garlic aioli & a Kimchi Salad for lunch. Delicious!!! Warmed the wrap in microwave on high for 30 seconds.🙌 Dinner later, Taco Friday Date Night at Home. Our 1st adventure from the Build your own Meal Kits Menu. We went for the Taco Kit Bundle ($20)*** *** IN STORE only - purchase of a Prep Classic Protein and receive 3 garnishes, 1 side salad and a package of tortillas. Our selection: PREP'S CLASSIC SLOW ROASTED PORK SIDE - KIMCHI FRIED RICE GARNISHES x3 - PICKLED ONION, PINEAPPLE SALSA, GREEN GODDESS DRESSING BECAUSE we are worthy & deserve those special treats.😃 Great restaurant quality, all the way!!! Small batch high quality meals for every day lunches & dinners or special events. Like tonight's Taco Friday Date Night at Home. Highly recommended!!!
Whatever Zak and team do is always top tier. I regularly go for the Italian Truffle Sandwich (toasted) with one of the many salad/side/veggie options. I end up leaving with a loaf of fresh sourdough and a latte every single time. Enjoy for yourself, you won't regret it!
Editing my review because years later this place still impresses me. Everything is so fresh. Staff are lovely. This place is a gem! I had the Italian sandwich and it was to die for. Hands down the best Italian sandwich in town! Worth every penny.
Food is delicious sure. Is it cost effective no. $16 for a small bowl of stew is bananas
We had lemon oregano chicken from the take away freezer. Awesome good.
Love the new location on King Street in Cobourg. Cool vibe and great food.. Appreciate the opportunity to pick up Prep meals and Happenstance bread when I stop in for a coffee and a treat. Welcome back to downtown!
My favourite spot for grab and go breakfast and lunch on a busy day.
Yesterday was the best day of our lives because of Zak & the Prep Food Co. catering team. We got so many compliments about every aspect from cocktail hour to the dinner - everything was above and beyond. Prep food co. is also a staple in our day to day lives - every dish we ve tried has been an absolute home run. Could not recommend enough.
Great place with healthy prepared poke bowls, wraps and more. We came all the way from the Netherlands to try this and its great!
I love their food! The pre-made bowls and wraps are delicious for lunch and I always walk away with some frozen dinner options for dinner. Highly recommend checking this place out for lunch and convenient dinner ideas! So tasty!
Not in the mood to cook or dine out? Consider giving Prep Food a try. They provide delicious chef-prepared food, wraps, salads, and baked goods from Happenstance. Their high-quality 12-minute boil-in-the-bag gourmet pasta, curries, and meats are perfect for stocking up at the cottage or at home. We really enjoy their meals!
I have recently relocated to Cobourg and was VERY happy when I discovered this hidden little gem within walking distance to where I am temporarily staying!! Being plant based it is sometimes hard to find pre-made food that is not only nutritious but also delicious....but no concerns here!! The Prep Food Company hits both markers for me and besides the yummy, great sized servings of fresh food, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and convenience and the genuinely friendly staff and cute atmosphere are the cherry on top for me!! My 3 year old son LOVES the vegan cookies and Mediterranean wrap and they have become a weekly treat for us both Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian/vegan options including desserts Dietary restrictions: Many gluten/dairy/egg/soy free options
Must stop if you re in town! Quick, easy, healthy! Hayden is great! Will definitely be back.
If you are ever looking for someone to cater your wedding or gathering, look no further then Prep Food! We had the fancy feist catered dinner and it was beyond compare, the sauces for the chicken and filet were amazing. All of the guests commented on how it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. Not only was the food good, the staff especially Zak, were extremely helpful. Leading up the event Zak helped me think about all the details a wedding consists of. Having a personal touch really made me feel ready when the day arrived. We could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Zak and the team for creating a memorable experience for us!
Went to my local Foodland and bought the Tomato Basil Bocconcini Penne and cooked it for dinner last night. Went back today and bought out the rest. Two thumbs up, 10/10, 5 Star, a must have!!!!!!
I adore Prep Food Co! Their lunch options are absolutely amazing (my personal favourite is the Tuna Poke Bowl!), and the frozen dinner options are so easy to prepare and delicious (so perfect for busy nights)! The staff are wonderful and so friendly. Cant say enough good things about Prep!
Prep Food Co has truly impressed me with their outstanding selection of pre-made goods. As someone who appreciates convenience without compromising on quality, I couldnt be happier with their offerings.
The Food Prep Co. is such an incredible company to work with! I hosted a bachelorette party in the area and the Food Prep Co. catered all of our meals for the weekend. They were extremely responsive and easy to communicate with while planning the menus for the weekend. They were very helpful and accommodating of the groups dietary restrictions, which is so comforting! They took all of the stress out of planning food for our weekend. Their delivery was timely and everything came perfectly prepped and packed with clear instructions. They provided everything we could have possibly needed to enjoy their delicious food. Everything we tried was flavourful, delicious and cooked perfectly but do yourself a favour and get their brisket!! It is quite honestly the best thing I have ever tasted and everyone in the group was going for seconds and thirds. The Food Prep Co. had us fed and happy all weekend. Their pricing is also very reasonable! I wish I lived closer so I could enjoy their food on a regular basis!
Amazing food and the most friendly staff. Mediterranean Bowl is the BEST
I have subscribed to meal delivery during the pandemic, had them cater my husband s birthday, bought meals for camping and girls cottage wknd as well as just popping in for a poke bowl for lunch. The food is amazing and fresh and it is good for you. Zach and his team are top notch and I highly recommend Prep Food Co for whatever your occasion may be.
Unfortunately they didnt have a poke bowl but the worker was extremely nice and gave me a free pretzel
Prep has quickly become my go-to for meals. Their products are fresh, healthy and oh the taste! I am dazzled that they cater to all food regimes with gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options. And yes, I do keep coming back because the food is superb but what makes this place very special is the customer service. Everyone I ve encountered on their team is friendly, educated about their products and genuinely interested in ensuring you leave with what you need. If you haven t titillated your tongue by their menu yet you must!
Vegan and gluten free options
Always more than helpful to help find what you need a great option for lunch, for zero-hassle dinners and hosting alike! Always impressed !
A wonderful spot to grab prepped-for-you food. Staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. They have a great selection and the food is delicious!
Emma was very welcoming and kind. I m very pleased to have visited. Thank you.
The take home meals are all amazing, very easy to prepare, and taste like expensive high quality restaurant meals. The wraps are delicious as well. Definitely a repeat customer, very very good quality food for good prices! Dietary restrictions: Vegan options
The food is amazing & makes dinner so much easier for us but most importantly every time we ve been in here the staff have been so welcoming and polite towards myself and my daughter! We look forward to going in every time :)
Amazing food! So easy to prepare and tastes like it s fresh from a high end restaurant!
Beyond the ease of preparation, the standout feature of Prep Food Cos frozen take-out meals was their exceptional taste. Each bite of the Brisket & Lentil Chili, Chicken Bacon Pesto Alfredo, and Hearty Slow Cooked Beef Stew was a burst of delightful flavors. The quality of ingredients and expertly crafted seasonings truly come through, making the experience not just super convenient but also incredibly delicious. If you find yourself in the area, I strongly suggest giving Preps food a go your taste buds will thank you!
I attended a function catered by Prep Food Co. I ate/tasted almost everything and my ribs were creaking by the time I left. All of the appetizers (reg and vegan) were so tasty. Ill come to your store to buy that wonderful mustard. Loved the meatballs and the vegan meatballs, sliders, and charcuterie! Great food! Ill book your company for my next get-together. Thank you!
Hands down the best place ever. Food is great. Service is even better. Thank you! Especially for dealing with my long list of allergies!
Just Ordered a bunch of sandwiches from the lunch menu and they were AMAZING! The chicken bacon really good sure lives up to its name! We will be ordering from there again soon!
I am a busy working professional. My wife will only eat the best ingredients. Prep meal delivery kits allow us to eat to our very high standards without all the time and hassle. I am so happy they exist and do what they do! Please never change!
Tuna Poke Bowl 10/10 Cuban Sandwich 10/10 Lemon Buttertart 11/10 Food : 5/5
Excellent healthy food and take away options!
I have stopped in a couple times to buy some pre-made frozen meals and every single thing I have tried so far has been AMAZING. 10/10 recommend
The service was great. Vary friendly people. I didnt get any food kits. But I will be. They look really good. Plus, its a pretty good variety. I did get a sandwich that was quite tasty, plus a really good butter tart.
Their food is amazing ! We cater all our film shoots from them and there is always something for everyone to eat . They take allergies into consideration as well ! Highly recommend them .
The food is incredible, absolutely fresh, the flavors of each dish are delicious. we tried the tabbouleh, hummus, garlic dip (OMG). 100% recommended
My mom and I stopped here for lunch today. We both chose the roasted vegetable bowl and it was the best bowl we ve ever had! (And we ve had a lot of bowls) The combination of ingredients was unique and unexpected but worked so well together. The dressing was amazing and we purchased some to bring home as well as some other salads that we are so excited to try. The service was very friendly and welcoming. We are not from the area, but hope to come again someday on another road trip. 11/10!
I was extremely impressed with the quality and ease of their pre-made meals. It is my favourite places to grab dinner options before heading to the cottage. Last time I tried the burgers and burger sauce and it was perfect! ***chefs kiss*** I also love to grab their shepherds pie when I need to bring food to a friend. Highly recommend!
I don t usually do reviews but OMG BEST BLACK BEAN CHICKEN BURRITO EVER!! Healthy options instead of the typical fast food options for lunch. Food
Always a fantastic experience with their catering! Delicious sliders, burritos, sandwiches, and variety of salads. They find a way to make vegetables and healthier options incredibly tasty! Excellent breakfast selection too, all presented beautifully. Zak and Michelle and their team are always right on time, so professional and great to work with.
I am glad I found this food store locally. I ordered 1 dozen of chicken sliders for my daughters birthday party and picked them up at their store. Their store was very calming, neat and organized. They also serve fresh foods and well made with fresh ingredients. I tried to purchased their pre-made sesame chicken and when I heated it up in the pan the sesame chicken tastes so good. I will definitely be a repeat customer here.
Picture this, Im taking a long drive in the rain, pitch dark cause of time change, with 2 kids crying in the car. All I need to make my day is some of Grandma Carols BTs. I make the stop and am greeted to the most kind woman who goes out of her way to make my experience great and even treats my LOs to a cookie. VERY happy I stopped, and my family said it was the best butter tarts theyve ever had. A must stop for sure!
The perfect spot to stop and grab lunch on the go, I love the freshly made bowls. I recently used there catering and it was amazing. The sliders were a crowd pleaser. From the food to the friendly staff. I highly recommend Prep Food!
We ordered a fabulous dinner for 4 on New Years Eve. It was outrageously delicious. Well planned, packaged & delivered on time. I have only kudos. Prep Food Co. made it a perfect dinner party.
Sandwiches are fantastic. Pickup was quick and easy and it was ready on time!
Prep Foods Co s customer service is TOP NOTCH! I can t rave enough about how wonderful Zak and his team are. Prep Food Co catered a work event for us today, which included an assortment of personal meals, and all staff commented about how incredible their meal was. Every single option was devoured! I chose the Tuna Poke Bowl and OMG...it is my new favourite meal. I ve never been disappointed with anything from Prep Food Co and I will absolutely be back for more!
Weve had Prep Food Co. cater two of our staff meetings so far and I look forward to more catering in the future! From the incredible tacos, to sandwiches and bowls - everything is fresh and absolutely delicious. There is plenty of food to satisfy your hunger + more to take home. And the customer service provided by Zak is incredible. He attends to your needs very quickly and goes above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction. Thanks Prep!
One of the tastiest sandwiches Ive had in a very long time! Moreover, the staff are what makes this place a phenomenal place to support! Any time Im in the area Ill be stopping by for another great meal and conversation. Thanks so much folks!
Went for the first time today and it definitely will not be my last. All staff were very professional, friendly and definitely made us feel welcomed. The food is amazing, fresh products and made right in front of you. I have heard people use the expression flavors just burst in my mouth and never really experienced that until now.
Who gets 5 stars? These guys do and deserve it+ fresh, local, prepared for you and priced appropriately- best take-out I ve had for a long time. Did I mention delicious and generous servings. Zak- keep doing what you re doing- it is just perfect! Okay I am not a sandwhich person but my partner shared his Porcetta- best sandwich in my life!!even if tacos are still my fave. Thanks Zak The prices are a notch above- but if you want McD prices, go to McD!
Amazing customer service. I ordered a poke bowl at Zak s recommendation and it did not disappoint. I ll be coming back again for sure.
We used Prep Food Company for a celebration of life event. Zak was wonderful, helping me think through the menu. The prices were more than reasonable and the food was delicious. Really delicious. All of the guests commented on how good everything was. Thank you, Zak!
So good.
What a great experience!! Thank you so much Prep Food Co for doing such an excellent job taking care of all the hungry bellies at my daughters baby shower, top noch service and delicious food, we so appreciate the quality and service
Sooo yummy! We loved the poke bowl with beef and the vegetarian sandwich! Fresh REAL cuisine. Lovely staff.
Delicious sandwiches and roasted veggie bowls. They also have poke bowls (we didnt try one). Very friendly and helpful.
The meal kit is everything I didn t know I needed. I like how I can just order from a list of homemade food online and wait for it to show up on my doorstep! You just throw the meals in the fridge and then heat in the microwave when you re hungry. It s not that expensive either! Cheaper than spending how ver much on groceries that will go to waste yay for getting rid of food waste! Also it s SO yummy and I think relatively good for you with the seasonal veggies. Good job prep Thanks for making my life easier.
Good and friendly.
Delicious food every time. Go get a sandwich or place an order. Better yet, book them to cater your next event! You wont be disappointed.
We joined the meal kit membership 1 month ago. We order 3 recipes a week and have been WOW d with each meal. They are so easy to reheat, the quality is amazing, and we re getting a full square meal with each selection. The portions are generous, most 2 portion meals feed 2 adults dinner with enough leftovers for 1 lunch. I honestly can t rave about Prep Food Co enough. Very different from other meal kits on the market, in the best way. Friendly prompt service always. I forgot to mention, the meals you receive are very consciously packaged. The bags they come in are paper, so they are recyclable. The containers the food comes in are to be washed, and left in your cooler bag for your next weeks pickup/drop off day. For me this is extremely important, as other meal kit companies create a lot of extra waste. Thank you for taking the stress out of dinner a few nights a week.
Delicious jerk sandwich and lentil soup to go. Thrilled to have delicious take out in Cobourg this small town desperately needs it! Thank you Zak! J & K
The food was awesome and I would recommend them to all my friends and family. Dietary restrictions: I have a sensitivity to spice. My food was perfectly prepared and delicious.
Went to Prep today for their opening day. Amazing ! Had the chicken tacos. Everything made from scratch in house. Cool environment and I was in and out quickly. Highly recommend this new Cobourg take-out spot.
Food is made fresh on sight daily! Everything was incredibly amazing and delicious ! We had the chicken tacos, beef tacos and the cuban sandwich which was huge...no problem with portion sizes here, you wont go hungry!! Prices are very good! Staff and owner were knowledgeable and friendly... you cant ask for anything more! gold stars
Everything is homemade and amazing! The Cuban sandwich is big enough to share and served on a freshly baked in-house baguette with homemade pickles! I love the tuna poke bowl - available with a low carb option using shredded cabbage instead of rice. The tuna was perfect..super fresh and tossed in a delicious Miso dressing. Excellent opportunity for quality take out in Cobourg!
If you feel like you need some colour, flavour and overall an explosion of life in your food, do your tastebuds a favour and never deprive them of Prep Food Co.! All in house and keeping in mind sustainability, Cobourg is so lucky to have such a spot. Now go get your Cubano on, Poke Bowl or taco + you cant go wrong & if youre confused, grow a book!
This is a great place to pick up a delicious lunch or dinner. Recently opened by a young, local chef, it also offers catering services. Weve already been here twice and have thoroughly enjoyed the food, including a Poke bowl. Check out the online menu. You wont be disappointed. And when you pick up your food, dont forget to pick up a jar or two of their very delicious sauces and salsas.
Amazing. Just like the original Zaks Shack. Glad hes back.
Chicken and shrimp tacos were both excellent. Can t wait to try the sandwiches!!!
Tried on Saturday for the first time. I just had the perfect sandwich called the Cuban. Incredible, baked in house baguette. Also tried the shrimp taco, one word delicious. For sure will order again.
Fantastic food. Had the beef tacos and Cuban sandwich and definitely would order again
Have you tried Prep yet? What are you waiting for? Everything is made fresh, in house and locally sourced. The tacos are amazing, the Cuban sandwich is the best sandwich in town, The tuna poke(po-Kay) bowl is insanely delicious. It is an at least once a week experience in my household. The staff is fun, the vibe is hip. The prices are great and the portions are big! Make a plan to get your Prep on this weekend!
Fantastic vegetarian fare and very friendly service! Weve had the cauliflower tacos and the beet poke bowl a couple of times, plus the in-house hot sauce. Delicious fresh food and fantastic price! Hoping for another veggie option or two, but this is pretty darn good for Cobourg. As a bonus, no plastic or tin foil in the packaging! All recyclable or compostable.
Amazing!
I just ordered the Cubana for the first time. DELICIOUS!!! The half size was the perfect size for me.
Zak and team PREP are hitting it out of the park. Try the Cuban sandwich, and his sauces are exceptional. While you are there, ask Zak about creating your own private gourmet dining experience in your home - beyond outstanding! - as soon as lockdown is lifted Keep up the great work and delivering quality creations team PREP!
I decided to support Zak and his fabulous team for my dads birthday this year. It was an amazing experience ordering from Timmins, ON and having my mom pickup the next day. We even had accommodations for an earlier pickup with no complaints or frustration from them at all. Amazing service, and very happy my family could enjoy this taco prep kit at their home with simple instructions and super fresh/delicious ingredients. . Now I need to try for myself when I m back! Thanks Preps, you ve outdone yourself
Holy smokes this place is good! - Brady Baldwin
Every experience at Prep Food Co. has been exceptional. From take-out lunch to large catered events, they always exceed our expectations! Friendly staff and delicious food made with quality ingredients! We dont miss a week without Prep Food Co!
We had the porchetta sandwich and it was amazing. You could taste the quality ingredients and the portion was large. Highly recommend it!
Thank-you for your beautifully prepared and delicious Taco Salad, for someone with special food needs, I really appreciate what you are creating! I am thrilled I have somewhere I can get something to eat easily. Lovely people, atmosphere and food!
Amazing food, awesome and friendly staff, and a true GEM in the heart of Cobourg! Poke bowl, Tacos, Sandwiches are all unreal... so delish! One of my fave spots in town fosho!!!
This. Food. Is. SPECTACULAR. Literally just finished a Cuban sammy and some shrimp tacos with my fiancé and we are STUFFED but already dreaming of our next order. The staff is kind and super friendly and very accommodating (allergies, intolerances etc). Can t wait to try everything on the menu!
A perfect local spot that hits the spot every time
Just one word to describe the sandwiches superbe !
Unique and delicious in every way!
WOW ....best Cuban Sandwich I have had in my life....I would have sent a picture but I could not put it down long enough to take ....amazing flavours
Porchetta is fantastic!!
The staff was really inviting and helpful. We ordered for all the sandwiches, they all tasted fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed it. O would definitely recommend Prep
The food was delicious and fresh. We tasted the bah mi and the tuna poke bowl and were very satisfied. The prices are really affordable and the portions are generous. And the staff, really nice people!
OMG explosion of flavour!!! Great good, great people & great attitudes!!!
Amazing food and great service!
Prep Food Co. catered our wedding and wholly smokes was it the right choice - BBQ pun intended. Our only regret is that we should have danced a little less so we could have eaten A LOT more. The menu was superb. Our guests will be talking about those sliders for times to come! And we couldn t have asked for better people (staff) to mingle food into our amazing night - they intuitively knew right when to bring an exciting new tray around the corner (chicken tacos, pulled pork sliders, burger sliders, etc, etc, etc). 10/10 overall. Great people. Great presentation. GREAT FOOD. Our taste buds are still tingling. Forever grateful, with a full heart and tummy. -Brooke & Connor
Delicious sandwiches! Interesting combinations and fresh bread! Make sure you order online before pick up. It takes about 15mins to prep! Would highly recommend
I am so glad we choose to have our wedding lunch done by Food Prep Co. The taco kits were such a huge hit!! Everyone absolutely loved them & wanted to know where they were from. Zac was so friendly and great to communicate with. We are very satisfied and highly recommend this high quality food service!! Thanks so much :)
