For some time now, lunch onthe-go has meant a dash into the nearest burger or chicken drivethrough and having to settle for a fatty or fried package of questionable nutrition and taste.

But for many people, this was just not good enough! Increasingly, the expectation is that lunch and dinner must be not only be good healthy food but delivered in a fast in-out service. And this service must be from genuinely friendly staff who prepare your order exactly as you like it, using fresh ingredients brought in that morning. Welcome to the ‘next-gen’ lunch and dinner take-out food retailer – Anne’s Pantry.
