Is home-cooked better?

We think so. It's fresh, made with love, nutritious. Yet cooking great food from scratch to serve up on the dinner table every night is a bit tricky for most people, particularly if you don’t fancy yourself in the kitchen.

Luckily there are many fantastic cooks and chefs around to do it for you. Cookaborough helps them run their business and helps you find them.

By ordering meals on Cookaborough, you’re supporting a local food business to nourish the neighbourhood while helping you put a worthy home cooked meal on the dinner table.

Where it all began

An idea born on a street corner

Back in 2018 we were neighbours with young families, struggling to put home-cooked food on the table every night. We came across a couple of fantastic professional cooks who provided nutritious family food once a week for time-poor families. Gold!

The cost was reasonable, we felt good about the food we were feeding to our kids, and great about supporting lovely local small businesses.

But with no bespoke software program available, they were overwhelmed with admin and had little opportunity to grow. We discovered there were many more like them, and wondered how these kinds of businesses could thrive. And that's when Cookaborough was born!
