Good Eggs

I started out using Good Eggs about once a month to order Ducks & Dragons GF baked goods, Mariposa Bakery GF pizza crust and other gluten-​free specialty goods. When I didn’t have this service available, I had to pre-​order from D&D and haul my butt to the San Mateo Farmers market and buy Mariposa in bulk anytime I went into the city to the Ferry Building and then run all over looking for the things I need. Now I just click on the app and wait for it to be delivered to my front door! It’s such a great service, I now try other items like eggs, drinks, produce, prepared foods and meats. I think the quality is very good and I highly recommend it even though I love going grocery shopping. This just saves me from having to go to 5 different stores!

Love love this company. Fruits and vegetables are so fresh and delivery is always in time. Customer services are attentive and efficient. Can’t ask for more.

So impressed with the level of service and the quality of product here. I am continually amazed at their responsiveness and level of service they provide.
Locally sourced goods, like Farmer’s market stuff. Seriously, the last four months have been heaven. A few swipes and I have all the groceries and meals I need. Ideally we all want to shop like chefs, a few times a week, but who has the time??? Good Eggs makes it possible. Now I don’t have to hoard produce at the store and then overstuff my fridge.
Check out the fresh flowers, super pretty arrangements, exotic flowers and many organic.
I have also sent bags as care packages, super easy, convenient and so much better than a gift card!
It’s an amazing service, REALLY. Life changing.

I love good eggs! The ordering and delivery is so easy, and the products are fantastic. We plan our whole week’s dinners using good eggs, and almost don’t need to go to the grocery store! Best part is that it’s such good quality food that we can feed it to our baby without worrying. Keep it up!
4 months later: I have used Good Eggs for grocery delivery every single week since February and it has consistently been wonderful. The things that stand out to me now are the same as before: I love how easy it is to order on the app. Also I love that the animal products are all happy and well treated, and the fruit/​veg are consistently very fresh and delicious. We’ve experimented with some of the pantry/​baked goods and they’re really tasty also. It’s made cooking for our family (with a growing baby) much simpler and more efficient.

I am a pretty organized single working mom, with THREE teenagers eating mountains of food. I elected to try this service (rather than go to Safeway after work) and gladly paid a higher price for the convenience of getting beautiful organic groceries delivered to my door. Unfortunately i was promised a delivery time that didnt happen– which screwed up my night. The food is lovely, but i fear the service isnt quite what one would expect. Love this, just dont plan your night around it.

+ Fresh, quality, local produce
+ Cute website design
+ Attentive customer service
— Poor execution (late deliveries, doesn’t follow delivery instructions, buggy website)
— Expensive
— Product photos/​descriptions are occasionally misleading (but usually pretty good)
I really, really wanted to like them, fresh, quality, farm-​to-​home groceries would be a great. Tried 2 deliveries and Good Eggs is just not as good as it could be. My first delivery was delayed by a couple of hours, left on the side of the apartment complex with no notification that it had arrived (despite online instructions saying to buzz and call), had items that did not match their descriptions (e.g. super young sunflowers that did not start blooming until 2 weeks later, as opposed to the image showing fully-​bloomed flowers), and left out the gift message entirely.
My second delivery went smoothly (they even included a complementary chocolate bar), but the website was broken at the time I placed the order, so the order had to placed manually by their customer service. Adjusting the time slot of the delivery also resulted in the site throwing an error. The produce on the site is typically double what you’d find in Whole Foods, which is a premium I’m willing to pay for the convenience of farm-​to-​home groceries, but their execution leaves a lot to be desired. I desperately want to recommend Good Eggs to friends, but have been finding myself always adding disclaimers when I do so. I have high hopes for them to iron out their kinks and become the game-​changing service they can be!

Customer for life!!! I have been ordering hard to find items from Good Eggs, Tea Leaf Salad Kits, passion fruit, organic grass fed beef etc. Yesterday my order was delivered and one of the Tea Leaf Salad kits had leaked. They immediately offered to replace it and delivered it the next day along with a free bouquet of beautiful flowers. Totally not necessary but they certainly brightened my day. Now THAT is customer service.

I first discovered these guys through a Facebook ad. It is the first time Facebook influenced me. With various life situations grocery shopping has become very difficult even though we are next door to the finest markets. The reason I am writing this is because I am terrified they’ll stop serving our area. PLEASE… if you are in the Palo Alto, Los Altos area… order! Try them.
When I first saw their prices I was uncertain if I wanted to buy much and didn’t really expect to. Now, I order twice a week… every week! We have completely stopped eating out… which we actually did quite a bit. I can’t even eat out because I am thinking of what I am spending and what I could be buying from Good Eggs.
Personally, I have NEVER seen the food quality they provide. I have shopped at some of our best markets and it just isn’t the same. Plus, nobody but the suppliers are touching anything, unlike the many fingers touching things at the market. People in our area seem to love to fondle food at the market and poke nails into fresh produce (which I find completely disgusting).
We are now eating things and trying things we never would have even thought about in the past. Their fish and seafood is OUT of this world. We don’t eat much meat and I am very happy to be able to buy it by the ounce like this. I am able to buy exactly what I want and as I want it.
Tonight, we had fresh Scallops and Nettle noodles. It was the best scallops I have ever eaten in my life and the noodles were amazing. There food is truly OFF the charts good. You cannot find this quality at any of our local, open, fresh markets. In some cases you can get close, but it takes time we don’t have. They also have terrific fruit and hydroponic vegetables that are really awesome. I now LOVE hydroponics! Such a wonderful taste.
Their dairy and breads are also the best. I have shopped at our best bakeries and they don’t compare. This is also like the best diet ever because we now eat superb quality and nothing is thrown out or put away for another day. We have also reduced quantity for the quality. Before Good Eggs… it was all junk.
Almost everything they sell is local and it is all organic. Some of the fish can come from further away (Alaska etc), but they rush it to us fresh. I was uncertain how they would manage the fresh produce, but they do a great job. Their packaging is really worth some of the extra they charge on items. I save all of it too. I have a stack of gorgeous boxes, ice packs and insulated envelops.
Having home delivery has also made an enormous difference in our lives. It helps incredibly when it comes to planning around work and doctors and various things that keep us running.
Again, PLEASE try them. Despite what people might say, nobody matches their quality. There is nothing like it out there. It is like having an assistant that makes your life a lot easier. Even items from the same producers I have bought from other suppliers are not as fresh. They appear to pick out the absolute best. I really hope they are wonderfully successful. If I move I really hope I can stay in their delivery zone.
I am writing this revue because our dinner was so good tonight I had a moment of anxiety that if we don’t promote this amazing service… it could end… and I would be heart broken.

What a great experience. Lovely fresh veggies. Flavorful cook foods. And some really great ice cream. The driver was on time, friendly.
Gift certificates for Good Eggs is a great idea!

I get a delivery 2 – 3 times a month. The produce is great and I’m able to get some hard to find items, like my favorite gluten-​free sour dough! Love this service!

A colleague sent me a gift package for the holidays from Good Eggs. The cheese, crackers, and olives came in a beautiful box that was festive for the holidays. What a delight!
When I had a slight problem with the order, specifically the packaging, the company was happy to provide me with a replacement the very next day. They were responsive and friendly over email, and they really impressed me with the service.
I should also point out that the food options are delicious, high quality, and well packaged. Things that need to be refrigerated come with cold packs and/​or in insulated envelopes, and the delivery person gives you a window in which to expect your order.
I would certainly recommend this company for the high quality of their products as well as the friendly and responsive customer service experience.

Tis the season for crazy diets and healthy shopping. I’ve been on a quasi-​Paelo kick, seeking out organic bone broths and grain-​free muffins and prepared meals and such. For these kinds of specialty items, Good Eggs is the jam. I love that everything is locally made, small-​batch, and health conscious. Plus, I don’t even have to leave the house to get the goods! They’re delivered to my door the next day.
Super happy that they adjusted their delivery times to be quicker. You can order by 10pm to get your order the very next day. Pretty rad for people who hate grocery shopping (me).
Love the product selection, online shopping experience, and free delivery over $ 50 (and believe me, it’s too easy to spend $ 50 here!). My go-​to items are Muffin Revolution paleo muffins, Mission Heirloom bone broths, and Salty Sweet chocolate chip cookies (totally not paleo or healthy, but utterly delicious and essential to happiness).

I’d seen their truck around the neighborhood & checked out their site.
A couple of days ago, I decided to take the plunge, ordering items that aren’t easily found on my regular shopping circuit: aquaponic watercress, organic frisée, albacore tuna, spinach, chicken & mozzarella sausage, Lisbon lemons, chicken meatballs (locally made), Point Reyes fresh mozzarella, organic beets and more.
Ordering is a snap and you’re able to add things to your cart until 10 p.m. the day before delivery.
(This is perfect for folks like me who menu plan in their head — or are impulsive– or both.)
They offer 4-​hour delivery windows from 11 a.m. through the evening so you can choose a time that’s convenient.
You can even have your groceries delivered to work so you don’t have to do the dreaded grocery-​shopping-​on-​the-​way-​home.
(Because that’s what you really look forward to after a busy day).
Frozen or refrigerated items come in a freezer bag with ice packs and everything is packed well and chilled or frozen solid.
While I love my Lucky store and Green Earth Natural Foods for main grocery shopping, there’s room in my pantry & fridge for bulk items from Costco & now, specialty produce and meat/​fish from GoodEggs!
I’m definitely re-​ordering!

I’ve been using Good Eggs since 2012 and I have to say that I used to love and rave about it but in recent times, let’s say in the the past year, I’ve had numerous disappointments with them. They range from the quality of produce (oranges the size of golf balls, lemons delivered hard, i.e. they are just plain old, to brown salad). I have had several occasions where I had to throw out the produce straightaway because they were just not good.
Or I would order soup or stews and when those packages thawed there must have been a hole in them because they would leak all over my fridge.
I used to call them and they told me that they would credit me though I do not recall seeing the transaction posted on my card and others I just couldn’t be bothered anymore because you know the saying, «multiple paper cuts create more pain than a simple cut»?
Then we went through a phase of anxiety of returning the cold packaging to avoid being charged $ 4.99 but the good ol’ driver wouldn’t ring our doorbell but just rather drop our order by our front door and that was that. You can imagine the number of irate phone calls that followed those incidents.
Nowadays, I seldom use Good Eggs anymore, there used to be a time I couldn’t wait to order goodies from them and rave to all my friends about them. But they do have certain things that I cannot find elsewhere so I do end up using GE.
Case in point I recently ordered a bunch of Fleur de Lyon pies (very delish BTW) but on the day of delivery apparently they weren’t available and I was not informed ahead of time. So now I will have to order them AGAIN but may have to pay the delivery fee because my order will be small — see what I mean about a paper cut? Not to mention the numerous transactions of debiting and crediting my card…
And the team was nice enough to give me bunch of flowers but the driver must have been mighty rough with them because when they got to me they looked flowers fit for Morticia Adams.
So, in summary Good Eggs, they’re too far down the road to call these teething problems, I do not know what we should call these paper cuts. But it’s so painful at this point, I grit my teeth and bear it just to get some favorites from them — so it’s really credit to the supplier not the service. If the supplier has another way for me to buy their goods, I would.
Anything for no more paper cuts.

This is a great place to shop and getting it delivered to your front door. I was in search of something saw that Good Eggs carried this. I called them was instructed how to place my order and arrival would be the next day. Person answering the phone very polite and knowledgeable.
Received 2 emails with cut off time and another one with my receipt of purchase. The following day was an email from Hillary asking of my satisfaction and delivery of my produce. Told her excellent I had a few more questions and communicated with me she will get back to me as soon as they have an answer. Such a nice and polite staff if you order from here definitely efficient and well packed.

I love their home delivery service! They have great products on their website to choose from and my purchases are packed well, with cold packs when needed. I always get a text as a reminder, and then the delivery person sends a text to let me know it was just delivered (when I’m not home).
I also attended one of their events — a cooking class. Delicious appetizers and wine were offered to all and the cooking demo was wonderful, and then we got to try our hands at it ourselves. Such a yummy and fun night! AND… I was most impressed by the fact that there was NO SALES PITCH… at all, which I was totally expecting. Pretty smart to let it all speak for itself, which it did, and that made me love them even more.
I can’t say enough good things about Good Eggs and I highly recommend their service.

I am so impressed with Good Eggs. I have had 3 orders now and all have been perfect. All of the food has been fresh and delicious. The website is very easy to use and navigate through options for the week. I am so excited to be using local businesses and farms. Every order comes packed very well and labeled. I have had 2 substitutions and both were just fine. Communication and customer service is top notch. Every person I have interacted with has been extremely helpful and friendly.
Some standout suppliers are Yerena Farms where I got the plumpest, juiciest blackberries, Hidden Star Orchards who has some of the best bing cherries I have ever had, Firebrand Artisan Breads who have an outstanding sourdough loaf, and Catalán Family Farm’s sweet and delicious fresh English peas. I have liked every order I have gotten and have referred a few friends as well.
This week was «Berry Week» and I got a free pint of strawberries with my order, which was a nice addition. I am really excited to continue using Good Eggs!

I’ve had about 4 deliveries from Good Eggs in the past few months and they have my attention. Grocery delivery isn’t really my thing, since I like to do my own, but Good Eggs has captured a terrific niche market: hard-​to-​find, high-​quality local products *and* regular groceries. Although they don’t stock the kind of national brands that Amazon Pantry or Safeway does (which might put some people off), they’ve got everything you might need in the way of dairy, eggs, breads, meats, fish, and produce. They also have sheep’s milk, verjus, raw milk and cream, spatchcocked chicken, really interesting veggie burgers from Zero Labs, absurdly overpriced but delicious knishes and walnut-​chocolate butter. All locally made.
1-​star off for a somewhat cumbersome cold packaging return system, which requires that you return the cold packs within a month or they charge you $ 4.99 (not a problem if you get regular deliveries since they’ll just pick it up). Still, I would rather have my food well-​packed and insulated than worry about $ 5. Since I was home at the time of delivery today, I just unpacked everything while the delivery person was there and handed her back the packaging.

Good Eggs is just awesome.
You can read the reviews and get an idea about the service and quality of food. I will not go into the same detail as others.
Good Eggs has been a lifesaver since we discovered it. My wife and I (both really busy) now barely go to Whole Foods for groceries and rely on Good Eggs for most of our weekday eating. Everything has been really good… prepared foods, produce, every thing.
They have not disappointed one bit and I look forward to continuing use of this service.

My wife and I recently started ordering from Good Eggs. We originally came to Good Eggs to order some wonderful Muffin Revolution paleo muffins. We were pleasantly surprised to encounter the variety of local, sustainable, organic prepared foods available for delivery.
We want good food, are not that interested in food preparation (we are a couple of lazy BoBos), and are willing to pay for it. Good Eggs is a perfect match. Margaret especially enjoys picking seasonal items and selecting different treats each week.
The available items are harvested and/​or produced locally. We especially enjoy getting items delivered from Mission Heirloom Garden Café, a great new paleo restaurant in North Berkeley. Their quince and plantain mash is awesome.
We both eat very different diets. I dig the large assortment of paleo friendly items and Margaret LOVES the baked goods. We are able to easily and effortlessly enjoy mealtime together, although not eating the same items.
Good Eggs is not an instant grocery delivery service, like instacart, but it delivers exactly what we want: great prepared food.
