Canceling a meal kit subscription like Home Chef can feel like a chore—especially when you’re busy or trying to avoid extra charges. While I’ve really enjoyed the convenience and the tasty recipes Home Chef delivers, there was a time my routine or budget meant I needed to take a pause. If you’re in the same boat, don’t worry—this step-by-step guide will help you smoothly cancel your Home Chef subscription.
How to Cancel Home Chef Subscription
Good news: Home Chef makes it easy to pause or cancel your subscription. Here’s how you can do it:
- Log in to your Home Chef account at homechef.com.
- Click on your Account in the upper right corner, then select Account Settings.
- Scroll down to the Delivery Details section.
- At the bottom, click on Pause Subscription or Cancel Subscription. Follow the prompts.
