Jo's food is absolutely delicious and in particular we've enjoyed her Friday night feasts as a family. Really scrumptious, plenty for 4 and great to let the kids try new flavours. Nothing is too much trouble for Jo, she is a whizz at accommodating special dietary requirements. Thanks Jo, you've definitely been a lockdown highlight for us. Jx

My family and I ordered from Jo's Kitchen recently as we were celebrating my Mum's birthday during lockdown. The process of ordering from Jo on her website was SUPER easy, not to mention the amazing amount of choice available on her menu. Every week. No idea how she does it! The beauty of ordering was that we were all able to have something different, something that took our fancy off the menu! As I was passing The Mart, I was able to collect from Jo although delivery wouldn't have been an issue. We thoroughly enjoyed our mexican chicken, haggis neeps & tatties, coconut salmon curry and lamb

Christmas lunch this year (2020) was by Jo's Kitchen and it was such a success. Thank you. No shopping to do, an unbelievably straightforward collection on Christmas Eve and delicious meals which we quickly heated on Christmas Day. We found ordering easy and would definitely do it again.

We had an absolutely first class Christmas Dinner delivered. It was delicious from the starter through to the dessert. Excellent value for money and very little washing up afterwards! Thank You.
