A Bit About WOW! Organic Box Scheme

Since WOW! Café opened in Jan 2006, it has earned a reputation for being a little different. So, to avoid letting the side down, we’ve followed suit with our unique Organic Box Delivery Scheme.

As well being able to order an extensive list of whole foods for direct delivery to your door, WOW! gives you the customer, the choice of how you would like to shop for your organic food:

Option A - the traditional box method….with a twist
Order a traditional organic vegetable, or fruit box to the value of £10, £15, or £20, where the contents are carefully selected by WOW! The twist?....With this option you can ‘add on’ more fresh goods, or dried whole foods as you wish.

Option B - the this is what I fancy box method
Order exactly what you want to go in your box. All we specify is that you place a minimum order of £10. So, if you want 13 cabbages, 3 carrots & 1 mushroom…that’s fine (just give us a clue as to what’s on your menu!) With this option, you again get the opportunity to order dried whole foods.

Option C - the busy box method
If you just don’t have time to go through the WOW! list and enjoyed your last box, this is the option for you. A repeat order. Tick this and hey presto, it’s all done.

Option D - add on boxes
These are boxes carefully chosen by Wow! to compliment your main order. Choose from:

The Salad Box £8.50
At Wow! Café we are known for our salads…so we’ve created our very own salad box! Alongside the usual ingredients: lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber etc we choose produce we know tastes great in salad. So you’ll find, in varying proportions & subject to availability, carrot for grating, fennel, Alconbury sprouts, kiwi, peppers…..Of course when we can source local, seasonal produce, we will. At all other times we endeavour to buy as near to home as possible.

The Weenie Baby Weaner Box £6.50
Mashed up fruit & vegetables are an excellent way to begin weaning your baby onto solid food. Our special Weaner Box contains a variety of easily digestible produce which can be pureed to provide the essential nutrients needed for growth. Typical contents will be carrot, parsnip, pear, banana, avocado & apple. (Subject to availability)

The Troublesome Toddler Box £8.50
From around 9 months of age many babies will feel the whole mashed up veggie thing is not for them! With a strong desire to eat like mum and dad, you will be able to imprint healthy eating patterns for life. Colourful finger foods really appeal, so our toddler box is sure to please. Typical contents, subject to availability will include cherry tomatoes (footballs), broccoli (trees), cucumber & carrot (batons), apples (thinly sliced to make sailing boats), bananas, grapes & kiwi (all alternative sweet snacks).

How to Get Going With WOW! Box Scheme

Once you have filled your details in on the register interest page, we will send you, via e-mail, a price list of the following weeks goods. On receipt you should specify your choices; the price list will calculate an approximate total price for your order. All you have to do then is send it back to us and await your delivery.

Don’t worry if you get stuck… we are always on hand to help you out.

At WOW! we prefer to use electronic ordering to reduce the impact on the environment. However if you require a paper price list, or wish to order over the telephone, we can oblige.

The Small Print Bit

Wow! Box Cancellation Policy

We ask all customers to follow our cancelled box policy to reduce wastage, thus keeping costs down. All boxes are to be cancelled by Thursday evening in the week PRIOR to your delivery week. Failure to cancel will result in boxes being delivered and charged for.

Wow! Return Box Policy

Your produce will be delivered in a reusable cardboard box, which folds flat for easy storage. This box remains the property of Wow! and we kindly ask that it is either left out for collection on your next delivery, or returned to the café. Failure to do so will result in a standard charge of £5.

Wow! Payment Policy

Prompt payment of your box is always appreciated! You can pay by credit/debit card over the telephone, by cash or cheque on delivery, or pop into the café (and sample our delicious food whilst you are there!). All we ask is that you avoid the hours of 12pm-2pm, as we are generally very busy serving hungry diners.
Unfortunately, we will have no choice but to suspend boxes should your account be unpaid for more than two deliveries.

Payment for boxes in advance is not encouraged due to the unpredictable nature of seasonal produce. However, Wow! will accept lump sums upfront. Please ask for more details.

Wow! Poor Produce Policy

Whilst we try our hardest to supply top quality produce, occasionally the odd rogue spud or apple may stray into your box. Please carefully examine the contents of your delivery and report any complaints to us within 24hrs. We will endeavour to replace sub standard goods immediately, or compensate the following week.
