Foodie

Meal Kit & Subscription Platform

Stack Laravel 9
Commerce Plans + Cart

The Brief

Foodie is a Laravel meal-kit and food-ordering platform demo — weekly plans, à la carte menus, a custom meal builder, subscriptions, checkout and customer accounts in one responsive storefront.

Challenge

Meal-kit businesses need more than a brochure site: customers expect to browse categories, build a weekly box, choose diet-friendly meals, manage delivery addresses, apply promos and pay online. The platform had to support both one-off orders and recurring subscriptions without feeling like two separate products.

Storefront experience

The public site leads with a meal-kit hero, plan discovery, category browsing and a clear “how it works” flow. Customers can explore plans, bundles and individual menu items, search the catalogue, save favourites and move into cart and checkout from desktop or mobile.

Custom meal builder

A dedicated meal-builder route lets users pick diet types, load eligible items by plan category, and calculate a package through API endpoints — useful for flexible weekly boxes rather than fixed SKUs only.

Subscriptions & accounts

Logged-in customers get profile management, wallet top-ups, order history, referral rewards, subscription management and weekly meal selection for active plans. Stripe webhooks and Laravel Cashier support recurring billing patterns.

Checkout & operations

Checkout handles delivery slots, address validation, promocodes, multi-gateway payments (Stripe, PayPal, Mollie and others in the stack) and order success/failure routes. An admin area manages items, categories, plans, bundles, drivers, CMS pages, notifications and reporting.

Outcome

Foodie demonstrates a full meal-service ecommerce build — suitable as a demo for subscription food brands, dark-kitchen operators or agencies pitching a Laravel ordering platform with plans, builder logic and repeat customer tooling.

Challenge

Meal-kit customers needed to browse categories, build weekly boxes, choose diet-friendly meals, manage delivery addresses, apply promos and pay online while supporting both one-off orders and recurring subscriptions.

Solution

Foodie combines a Laravel storefront, plan discovery, category browsing, search, favourites, cart and checkout with a custom meal-builder route, subscription accounts, wallet top-ups, order history, referral rewards and admin tooling.

Outcome

The demo shows a full meal-service ecommerce platform for subscription food brands, dark-kitchen operators or agencies pitching Laravel ordering with plans, builder logic and repeat customer tooling.

Lessons

  • Meal-service ecommerce needs one customer journey for browsing, custom boxes, checkout and recurring subscription management.
  • A flexible meal builder works better when diet types, plan categories and eligible items are calculated through API endpoints.
  • Operational tooling matters alongside the storefront: admins still need items, categories, plans, bundles, drivers, CMS pages, notifications and reporting.
