Any new experience with Yay Lunch?

It's working well for my ES student. I like the "set it and forget it" feature. DD gets hot lunch twice a week only, so while I did think it was odd the vendors were so similar, it doesn't really affect us.

Agreed. We gave it a try and have stopped. I wish we could go back to prior vendors.

We would not mind if it was the same vendors every week if there was more variety between the vendors. For example, if it were more like:

- actual deli (salads, fresh subs or sandwiches, not just melted cheese options)
- pasta day
- pizza Fridays
- Asian cuisine
- something like Cava (lean proteins, veggies)
- Soup

Yes, some variety week to week would help immensely. The current menu reads like pizza, quesadillas and macaroni and cheese.

I was also surprised that they had the same handful of vendors each week. And honestly, based on my interactions with some of those restaurants I’d wonder if they could handle the volume.

Yay lunch is nay lunch unfortunately.

Hmm. Our school uses yaylunch and I think I can order all the way through December (at least) if I wanted. The schedule is the same every week.

Make sure you are toggling to the correct week? I will say that we do not love the new UI.

Oof…yeah, we have no menus to view right now. I had logged in to order for the next couple of weeks, and nothing. Definitely on the correct week in the calendar. Maybe they’re having an issue with the local vendors?

Possibly because it’s Sunday? Our orders are due on Saturday.

Definitely double check that you have the week correct in the drop down.

Strange. My kid logged in Saturday and purchased lunches based on the menu.
