Why Ballarat locals choose Délidoor's ready-made meals

Fully cooked, never a meal kit

We do the shopping, chopping and slow cooking. You get ready-made meals that only need heating, which makes them perfect for busy weeknights, late shifts or lazy Sundays.

Healthy meals made with real ingredients

Our chefs cook in small batches with the same ingredients you'd use at home. Snap-freezing locks in flavour and nutrients, so we never add preservatives. Oui to quality, non to nasties.

Delivered to your door in Ballarat

We deliver in Ballarat 6 days a week (Monday to Saturday), with daytime delivery windows (8am to 6pm) and an overnight option (midnight to 7am) on Saturdays. Your meals arrive frozen in an insulated box, so you don't need to be home.

Real comfort food for Ballarat's famous cold

Ballarat winters call for slow-cooked classics: beef bourguignon, lamb shanks, hearty pies and warming soups, ready in minutes. Lighter options are on the menu for the warmer months too.

Less waste, better packaging

Freshly frozen meals keep for months, so there's no race against a use-by date. Our boxes are recyclable and the wool liners are compostable.

No subscription, and rewards on every order

There's no subscription to manage. You earn Dinner Points on every dollar you spend, and Dinner Club members get double points, a monthly discount and a lower free-delivery threshold.

Why choose Délidoor for meal delivery in Ballarat?

We're a family business started by two French dads who were tired of choosing between convenience and real food.

Each one is snap-frozen and sent to Ballarat by temperature-controlled courier.

The result: home-cooked meals delivered to your door, with all the savoir-faire of a proper kitchen.

Are your meals cooked in Ballarat?

Can my meals be left on the doorstep?

For houses, overnight delivery is ideal: your meals are waiting when you wake up. For apartments, we recommend a daytime delivery.

Browse the full menu.

Can I order meals for an elderly parent?

Yes, and many of our customers do. Délidoor meals are fully cooked and only need heating, which makes them a reliable way to make sure an older parent always has a proper meal in the freezer. You can have them delivered to their address and pay online.

If they receive a Support at Home package or NDIS funding, they may only need to pay part of the cost: see our Support at Home meals and NDIS meals pages.

Do you have meals for new parents?

Yes. A freezer full of ready meals is one of the most useful things new parents can have in the first weeks with a newborn: nourishing dinners, ready in about 10 minutes, with no shopping or cooking. Order for yourself, or send a box to friends who have just had a baby.

Do I need to cook the meals that I have ordered?

For most of them, you won't need to cook them but just to reheat them in your oven or sauce pan. If you purchased some marinated meat or fish, you will need to cook them as they are delivered frozen but raw.


Simply follow the instructions on the labels in order to prepare the meals the most efficient way to enjoy the best meal with your family and friends.


With our home meal delivery service, you will spend less time in the kitchen and more with the family.

Are all my meals delivered frozen

The simple answer is yes because we care about what we use as ingredient. By delivering your meals frozen, we lock in the healthy goodness of the fresh ingredients we use, we don't need to add any nasty preservatives to extend their shelf life.

How long will my meals last in the freezer?

On average, our meals last for around five months in the freezer. All our meals come with a specific expiry date indicated on the label, so check that before you cook!

Do you cater to my dietary requirements?

We make meals for everyone because we understand every family and households are made from people with different taste and dietary requirements. Our vegetarian, vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free meals are nutritious and protein-rich.

And for added assurance, our chicken and beef are halal, so you can be confident in our meal delivery service.

Where do you get your ingredients?

Our ingredients are all sourced fresh, locally. We're very strict about only using fresh, healthy ingredients sourced from environmentally conscious producers.

What can I do with your packaging?

You will need to dispose it since we cannot collect it back. While we work on a sustainable take‑back solution, please: 

  • Cardboard outer: flatten and pop it in your curbside recycling. 
  • Wool liner: tear it up for your home compost, tuck it under a garden bed as mulch, or reuse it as natural pet bedding or cool‑box insulation.

Thanks for giving our eco‑packaging a second life!

Do I have to commit to a lock-in contract?

No lock-in contracts or subscription fees. Order whenever you want—weekly, monthly or just for special occasions.
