What you get

One honest tiffin, twice a day.

No confusing plans. No multiple sizes. Just two simple meals — a light lunch and a fulfilling dinner — both pure vegetarian, both cooked fresh every morning.

Lunch Tiffin

A light, work-friendly meal — won't slow you down for the afternoon. Roti, a seasonal sabji and fresh salad, packed warm.

₹70per tiffin · delivery included

Dinner Tiffin

A complete, satisfying dinner — the kind of meal that lets you sleep well. Five rotis, a hearty sabji, dal and rice, all in one box.

Pure veg only. Both meals are also available as strict Jain on request — no onion, no garlic, no root vegetables, separate vessels.

It's straightforward

From our kitchen to your desk.

Three steps. No app to install (unless you want one). No complicated billing. Just food.

01.

Send a WhatsApp

Tell us your name, address, meal type (veg or jain) and the days you want delivery. We'll confirm same day with your tiffin start date.

02.

We cook fresh

Every morning at sunrise, our kitchen team starts cooking. Vegetables sourced same morning. Dough kneaded by hand. Nothing pre-made.

03.

Delivered hot

Insulated tiffin reaches your desk between 12:30–1:30 pm, still warm. Empty box collected next day. That's it — no fuss.

Who's cooking for you

A husband-and-wife side-of-the-desk dream.

Desk Box isn't a cloud kitchen or a startup. It's the two of us — a finance professional and a dietician — making the kind of food we'd want our own family to eat.

Co-founder · Operations

Hi, I'm the founder.

By day, I work as a compliance consultant for a SEBI-registered intermediary — which means a lot of my professional life is about doing things by the book, transparently, and with audit-grade discipline. Desk Box is where I bring that same rigour to something I love deeply: home food. I personally oversee sourcing, kitchen hygiene, deliveries and customer communication. Every WhatsApp you send comes to me.

From our land to your plate

Our own farms in Rajasthan.

Most of the dals, grains and almost all our spices come from our family-owned farms in Rajasthan. That means we know exactly what went into the soil — no mystery pesticides, no warehouse-aged stock, no adulterated masala. Vegetables are sourced fresh every morning from the local mandi. Only quality ingredients, no compromises — because we eat from the same kitchen.

  • Family-farmed grains & spices
  • Vegetables fresh from morning mandi
  • Zero shortcuts on ingredients
Why people stay

The kind of food you'd cook yourself.

Anyone can run a tiffin service. Very few do it without cutting corners — on the masala, on the oil, on the dal. Here's what we never compromise on.

Spices & grains from our own farms

Most of our dals, grains and almost every masala come from our family-owned farms in Rajasthan. We know exactly what went into the soil — no adulteration, no warehouse-aged stock.

Cooked same day, no leftovers

Vegetables bought at the morning mandi. Cooking starts a few hours before delivery. Nothing pre-made, nothing reheated, nothing from yesterday.

Balanced by a dietician, not a chef

Our co-founder is a consulting dietician. Every menu is built for everyday eating — protein, fibre, calories all in the right ratio. The kind of meal that lets you actually work after lunch.

Quality first — always

Cold-pressed oils, sendha or rock salt, freshly ground spices in small batches. We cook with what we'd serve our own children — because, well, we do.

One person on WhatsApp

You'll always reach the same person — the founder. Need to pause a delivery? Switch to Jain for a week? Add a guest tiffin? Ask. We'll handle it.

Honest pricing, nothing hidden

₹70 for lunch, ₹80 for dinner. That's the whole price list. No surge, no peak hour, no platform fee, no GST surprise. UPI or cash, your choice.

From those who eat with us

Word from the desks & hostels.

I switched from three different tiffin services in two years. Desk Box is the first where I haven't checked the dabba with suspicion. Tastes like my mother's cooking. Same dal, somehow.

Strict Jain food, on time, every day. They use a separate kitchen for it — I asked, I checked. That kind of seriousness is rare. My family in another city now sends my cousin tiffin from them too.

Common questions

Things people always ask.

Monday to Saturday is standard. Sunday is our kitchen's day off — that's also when we restock from the morning mandi and our farm shipments. If you genuinely need Sunday delivery (hostel students especially), talk to us — we sometimes arrange it.
Just WhatsApp us at least one day in advance. We only bill you for tiffins we actually deliver — there's no fixed monthly fee to worry about, since you pay per tiffin (₹70 lunch / ₹80 dinner). Pause as long as you need; restart whenever.
You pay per tiffin — ₹70 for lunch, ₹80 for dinner. We tally up your tiffins at the end of every month and send a clean WhatsApp invoice with the total and a UPI link. Pay via UPI (GPay, PhonePe, Paytm), bank transfer or cash — whatever's easier. No advance, no auto-charge.
Yes. Tell us by 10 pm the previous day, and your next day's tiffin will switch. There's no extra charge. Many of our customers switch back and forth depending on what their week looks like.
Tell us directly. Genuinely. We'd rather hear "today's sabji was too oily" than have you quietly stop ordering. Since we decide the menu each morning, your feedback shapes what we cook tomorrow.
We currently serve Thaltej, Gurukul, Memnagar, Vastrapur, Sattadhar and Bhuyangdev — most of West Ahmedabad. Delivery is free within ~3 km of our kitchen; locations beyond that radius carry a small extra delivery fee depending on distance. WhatsApp us your office or hostel address and we'll confirm the exact charge in one reply. If you're just outside our usual area, we'll often still make it work.
