More Than a Tin — It’s a Tradition
Our dabbas are inspired by the dabbawalas of Mumbai — an incredible network of couriers who’ve delivered home-cooked lunches across the bustling city for over a century.
Each day, they carry thousands of stacked metal tins (dabbas) from kitchens to offices with near-perfect precision — no tech, just teamwork.
We honour that legacy with every DabbaDrop delivery:
home-style meals packed with care, delivered in reusable tins, and made to nourish both people and planet.
About Us
Hi, we’re Anshu & Renee — two mums from East London on a mission to rewrite curry night.
We started DabbaDrop because we were tired of takeaways that felt like a compromise: too oily, too wasteful, and never as nourishing as a home-cooked meal.
So we did things differently.
Each week, we craft a fresh, plant-based menu inspired by curries from kitchens around the world — slow-cooked with soul, packed in reusable tins, and delivered straight to your door.
We make the meals. You make the moment.
No plastic trays. No faff. Just real food, rooted in tradition, made for modern life.
It’s food that fills your belly and your heart.
A ritual worth slowing down for.
A treat you can feel good about.
From our kitchen to yours —
Dinner is served.
With love,
Anshu & Renee x
