Chicken tikka masala was a nice taste…
Chicken tikka masala was a nice taste but not great overall. Not sure how you can justify the price bearing in mind I had the oven on for 30 minutes to cook it and portions were not very big. The chicken was soft and not generally a lot of texture to it. I can buy a good quality cooked ( no cooking by me) meal for about double the price from a local takeaway but the portions will be at least twice as big and feed two. May be I’m a grumpy old man and not your regular customers . Anyway you may take on board what I’ve said and best of luck.
Use by date was 22 Dec. Batch I0F

Hi Andrew, I’m really sorry the Chicken Tikka Masala didn’t hit the mark for you on portion size and overall value. We do aim for generous, balanced portions and the best quality ingredients, so it’s genuinely helpful to hear where you feel we’ve fallen short. I’ll make sure your comments are passed back to Charlie and the kitchen team. If you’d be happy to drop us a note at hello@charliebighams.com with the use by date and batch code from the sleeve, we'll be able to help you further.

Hello. What a lovely review - thank you! We’re so glad our Macaroni Cheese could give you a well-earned night off! That’s exactly what we hope for.
Good feedback service
I sent CB a suggestion regarding their meal and I immediately got a positive reply. What a refreshing change that they take on board customer suggestions and hopefully act on it. We enjoy their meals and based on what a takeaway would cost, they are reasonably good value given the quality. We've had quite a few chicken dishes and always found the chicken tender. Although they recommend oven to reheat, I use my air fryer on the 'bake' function. I usually add a couple of Bhajis (GF) as an extra perhaps this is something Charlie could offer?

Boiled Chicken????
Tried the Butter Chicken Curry after reading good reviews but we were very disappointed. It was very bland and the sauce quite sickly. The chicken seemed like it had been boiled as it was very sloppy.
The only good part was the rice. Definitely will not buy it again.

Quality going downhill
I only buy Charlie Bigham meals when they are o offer, which they regularly are. At nearly £10 for two they are vastly overpriced. I used to like the cottage pie, fish pie, lasagne a lot, but feel that quality and care have been going down recently. I hve just tried the "new" Thai Panang curry - and it is awful - bland and oozing bad quality. Sad to see how company's commitment to quality seems to be turning into a strategy for brand marketing and profit maximisation.

At last a ready meal with flavour (and real food)
I honestly can't understand the negative reviews. I've tried several of the meals available and I've absolutely loved them all. The size is perfect for one person who's eating a sensible meal size.
For a couple of options each week for those lazier days, these are fantastic value and the flavours are 🤌
No supermarket versions will survive with these on the shelf next door.

Had the fish pie ,rubbish
Had the fish pie , just a punnet of mashed potato, very small pieces of salmon, very little else, far to much salt content and as for feeding 2 adults, ridiculous.
Will not be buying this again

Charlie Bigham's or Charlie Small-ham's?
Charlie Bigham's or Charlie Small-ham's?! How dare they charge £6.99 for "Red Peppers with Romesco", which turned out to be some sloppy red peppers with a scattering of crumb & a few almonds? Their dishes are SMALL & EXPENSIVE!
And does "Charlie" really exist or is he a fake marketing personality?

Oh Dear, gone down hill sadly
Its a real shame, I used to LOVE any Charlie Bigham meal, but they've all gone pear-shaped and nowhere near as nice as when 1st started - meaning, they're probs now massed produced, therefore, lost that lovely home-cooked taste.
Plus, huge price increases- I'll probably stop buying these in future, what a shame, was my "go-to" for a tasty quick dinner!🤔🙁- honestly just gave my fish pie to the cat! Whereas I used to love it🤭

The Paella was delicious.
The Paella was delicious. Serves 2 big appetites. We actually got 3 servings out of it (but had, had a big lunch earlier).
The paella has a real depth of flavour. I've bought supermarket own brands before but this was better. Will definitely buy again.

Hello Aly. That’s wonderful to hear — we’re so pleased you enjoyed our Paella! It’s great to know you found the flavours rich and satisfying (and even managed to stretch it to three servings!). Thanks so much for taking the time to share your lovely feedback — we really appreciate it.
Empty little wooden boxes
I chose Chicken Tikka Massala for 2.
It was my first and last time.
Those little wooden boxes work out very expensive because they are practically empty.
Thin watery sauce over 5 or 6 tiny pieces of chicken the size of the top of my thumb and a box of rice.
Chicken Tikka Massala for 2?
Ha ha. 2 mice perhaps

Fish Pie
Fish Pie. Overpriced, lack of fish, no prawns whatever is that all about? Not a proper fish pie and not enough for 2 people. So Wish I hadn’t wasted my money and cooked myself or bought a supermarket own brand which probably would have been better. So disappointed

We’re really sorry to hear your Fish Pie wasn’t up to its usual standard. It should contain a generous portion of hake and salmon, with smoked haddock blended into the sauce — so it sounds like we didn’t get the balance quite right this time.
Our Fish Pie doesn’t include prawns, as we like to make sure it’s suitable for those with shellfish allergies.
I’ve seen your email and have already replied directly, but if there’s anything else I can help with, please don’t hesitate to get back in touch — I’d be very happy to assist.
lacking the tikka masala
love the above dish and regularly buy it as a treat -imagine my disappointment when i opened package to find two trays of rice and no tikka masala -wondered whether the package had been tampered with but there was no evidence of this -seems to be a supply issue from the factory

Charlie you have come up trumps
Charlie you have come up trumps , I have wanted to go out for a green Thai curry for a long but think eating out now is so expensive. I had your GTC tonight and can honestly say it was better or just as good as a Thai restaurant curry . Absolutely delicious 😋

Crap, crap, crap
Bought a very expensive salmon paremitier with which I was really looking forward to, I have purchased many of Charlie Bighams meals and they have all been perfect over the years, this was CRAP on on a plate and just a plate of salt, vile and a waste of money, I need to drink at least 3 pints of water to survive 😳 don’t waste your money
