Built Without Guilt is far and above one of the best food services in Buffalo. I am a vegetarian and the creative and healthy recipes Shana comes up with never cease to amaze me. The three different pickup opportunities are convenient for my schedule and I consider the subscription pack to be quite affordable compared to what I would realistically spend on groceries/eating out. As someone who doesn’t like to cook and wants to be mindful of what they’re eating, using Built Without Guilt for meal subscription has been a life changer!Vegetarian options: Each entree has a plant based counterpartParking: The Chandler Street Market has a free lot which can get bumping. But free street parking is available if that fills up

Awesome experience all the way around! First order today, picked up during Chandler street market hours. Already sampled these, looking forward to this coming week's lunches... this saves tons of time figuring out meal plans, is totally delicious and well-balanced, and is so worth it in terms of taking uncertainty (when, where, what, etc) out of the lunch hour! Support local small business like this, love this food service model!!

Every meal is 10/10. Highly recommend trying out Built Without Guilt!

Food is fine! I just really don’t like the name. Food should never be associated with guilt in my opinion. Lots of younger girls seeing businesses like this are especially impressionable and it just feeds into the disordered eating narrative. Food is food! Who is to make us feel guilty for certain foods?

Filling but in a way you can feel good about! Always Good!

Love, love, love. Built Without Guilt tastes like my mama made me a healthy meal and I didn’t have to do the decision making, prep or clean up. Being too busy to be healthy is no longer an excuse because this is affordable and delicious. I will never shop at a chain meal prep service or in the frozen food aisle again. This week, I’ve eaten banana nut oats, chicken korma, a fiesta bowl, and cacio e pepe. Helps me stay on track and stay motivated.

I have been eating the plant based version of built without guilt for several months and enjoy the taste and quality of these meals. It makes it easy to keep my nutrition on track, especially when I’m too busy to meal prep. I have lost weight and inches by controlling portion size and cutting down on sugar. These meals make it easy to skip junk food drive ins

Trying new restaurants with ingredients, spices, foods new to me is my thing. At this new restaurant at the Aftermarket at Chandlerville, ordered takeout of the Indian Hashbowl (chicken with saffron cauliflower rice & curried chick peas) for $9.00. The flavors were a different blend than anything I'd had before, and excellent! Made for a big lunch. The menu is limited, and at least some of it changes weekly. All meals are portioned out to be 1/2 cup of protein, 1/2 cup of starchy carbohydrates and 1 cup of vegetables. Anything can be made meatless, too. Also ordered her Date and Nut Energy Rolls (dates, almonds and chocolate); several to a package for $5.00. One (or two) is perfect for a pick me up snack. Moist, sweet, hits the spot for that 4 PM craving. Owner was helpful in describing her offerings, and enthusiastic about her business. Looking forward to returning to try something else new; maybe the butternut porridge?
The food is incredibly flavorful. Everything I try is amazing. I’ve never looked forward to such healthy meals before, thus helping with my fitness goals! A must try for anyone looking to improve their food/fitness goals, or to just enjoy a healthy meal that tastes incredible!

I'm so glad I started using Built without Guilt! I don't cook, and getting through the pandemic has been challenging and not very healthy. These are healthy meals, in healthy portions. Great. But they're also REALLY good, so I keep coming back. Some items are there every week, but main entrees rotate for variety. I'm kind of a picky eater, and I've loved everything I've had so far. Like, take a bite and say, "Man, that's really good!" out loud with my mouth full good. I'm saving money on take-out, and I know I'm getting at least a few meals a week that are healthy.

I love BWG. Every week I order both meals and muscle oats and usually a cauliflower pizza as well. The meals are an awesome way to have something healthy and get some vegetables in for the day, plus they’re good for on the go since you don’t have to prepare them. With the rotating menu it’s easy to not get bored of what you’re eating! The muscle oats are amazing too.
