OLMO Launches OLMO@HOME Ready-To-Eat Meal Subscription Service

Olmo, established as New Haven’s first bagelry at 93 Whitney Avenue, has launched its Olmo@Home ready-to-eat meal subscription service, offering customers the option to receive their choice of weekly or on-demand prepared meals for pick-up or delivery.  The service, which offers dinner and breakfast options for two, as well as beer, wine and grocery add-ons, offers flexibility and control over the menu, number of meals per week and more.

The seasonal menu is available on a weekly basis with one rotating, weekly special.  Beer and Wine pairings and a la carte options are also available, as well as grocery provision add-ons including Torres potato chips, mixed marinated olives, Grady’s Cold Brew coffee, Swords into Plowshares Honey, Ortiz Tuna and more.

“After we, like so many other restaurant and food businesses, had to quickly pivot our business model last Spring in the early days of the COVID Pandemic, we heard from our customers how convenient a ready-to-eat meal subscription service in the New Haven area would be,” said Craig Hutchinson, chef and co-owner, Olmo.  “After spending the year really in a soft launch period refining our offerings, options and listening to feedback from our early users, we’re excited to publicly announce the launch of Olmo@Home.”

Based on customer feedback during the soft launch period, Olmo@Home invites users to set up an a la carte order, or a regularly standing, weekly order.  Ready-to-eat meals, serving two adults, are available for breakfast and dinner, and come with full re-heating instructions.  All dinner options include dessert.  With a focus on local, seasonal ingredients, current Spring menu options include:

Breakfast

• Epic French Toast – housemade honey brioche sous vide with a crème anglaise ice cream base and served with macerated berries

• Olmo Bagels & Lox Schmear – a half dozen assorted Olmo bagels served with a side of Ducktrap River lox whipped cream cheese

“To keep things simple and affordable, while still being delicious and offering the highest level of ingredients, each meal is available for $30, feeding two adults with dinner options including dessert,” added Hutchinson.  “We know that time is tight, so for those looking to have Olmo@Home on the table for more than one dinner or breakfast per week, we will extend a 5% discount for each additional meal added.”

Mix-and-match meals must be ordered by midnight on Mondays for contactless pick-up or contactless delivery on Thursdays or Fridays of the same week.  Regular subscribers must also make their weekly selections by Mondays at midnight.  Pick-up is available at  93 Whitney Avenue Thursdays or Fridays between 1:00 and 5:00pm, or delivery within a 15 mile radius of downtown New Haven on Thursdays between 1:00 and 5:00pm.
