How Mealhub Collective Works

We replace dozens of pricey individual deliveries with one smart, nightly drop.

1

Pick a night & a partner restaurant

Mealhub pairs your building with a vetted local kitchen and locks in a date. The restaurant chooses one crowd-pleasing, bulk-friendly meal.

2

Residents pre-order online

We send a private ordering link to residents. They select portions (1–4+) and pay online by midday. No apps, no fees, no tips.

3

One delivery to your lobby

The restaurant batch-cooks and packs labeled portions. Our courier brings every order in a single delivery window to the lobby for easy pickup.

What Residents See on Mealhub Night

Every building gets a simple, private ordering portal. Residents tap a link from your email or portal, choose how many portions they want, and check out in under a minute.

  • Simple, focused page. One featured meal, clear price per person, and a short description.
  • Unit-ready labels. Residents confirm their apartment number so containers can be labeled correctly.
  • Clear delivery window. The portal shows the lobby pickup time so everyone knows when dinner will arrive.
  • Fast checkout. Card or wallet payment, then a confirmation email with pickup details. No apps, no delivery fees, no tips.

Why Mealhub Collective?

We’re building a new middle ground between expensive delivery apps and time-consuming home cooking.

Affordable dinners

Bulk cooking and one delivery stop mean more of every dollar goes into food, not fees. Residents get a full, satisfying meal at a price that competes with groceries.

Support local kitchens

Mealhub Collective is built for independent, family-run restaurants. Every Dinner Night becomes a mini-campaign that introduces them to an entire building at once.

Less friction, more together

Neighbors pick up dinner at the same time, chat in the lobby, and turn “What’s for dinner?” into something simple and shared instead of stressful.
