People's tastes change, and we know that our customers have a well-rounded palate. That’s why Meals on Wheels SA provides food that’s fabulous, enticing and always fresh. Imagine healthy, flavoursome dishes inspired by all corners of the globe. Because eating well should never be boring.
Our delicious three-course meals include soup, main course and dessert. Every morning, in our Fresh Cook kitchens, our volunteers cook meals that are then delivered hot to your door. Our Cook Chill branches also deliver ready-to-eat meals professionally prepared in our state-of-the-art commercial kitchen in Hilton.
Anyone in South Australia can get our fabulous meals. There are no restrictions or strict guidelines. Anyone who cannot shop or cook for themselves with ease, along with anyone who considers themselves ‘in need’ can get meals delivered. This may include an older individual, someone recovering from a hospital visit, someone living with a disability or even a time-poor family.
We are also able to offer our meals in a variety of formats, and most customers can choose their main meal from two alternatives available daily from our rotating menu. Read on for Meals on Wheels SA’s menu and prices.

Social connection
Delivering more than just fabulous food
At Meals on Wheels, your meals come with something extra. In addition to a delicious meal, we deliver a wellbeing check to make sure you are safe and well. If you’re found unwell or in a poor state, a family member or friend will be notified, and if needed, an ambulance will be called.
Your meal delivery also provides an opportunity for meaningful connection. For some, a chat with our deliverers can be the highlight of their day. Additionally, we have a range of social support and food-based programs that encourage healthy living.
Special diets
Meal options for special dietary needs
Meals on Wheels SA provides simple solutions to accommodate dietary requirements based on dietary or medical needs. Examples of our special meals include texture-modified, cut-up, low-potassium and gluten-free meals. Requests for the exclusion of some foods due to allergies and other issues may also be accommodated, within reason.
Please be aware that any request for a special or texture-modified meal should be accompanied by written confirmation from a doctor, dietitian, allergist or speech pathologist.
