Plates: Home-Cooked Food

Plates connects you with home cooks in your neighborhood making real, made-from-scratch food — the kind you'd get at a family cookout, not a restaurant chain.

FOR FOOD LOVERS • Browse plates from cooks near you — soul food, BBQ, Caribbean, West African, vegan, and more • See each cook's kitchen walkthrough and safety info before you order • Order ahead for pickup, and pay securely in the app • Catch "Friday plate drops" and pre-order limited batches before they sell out

FOR COOKS • Turn your kitchen into a business — post your plates, set your prices, get paid • Your own shareable storefront with a QR code to promote on social • Make a plate-sale flyer for Facebook and your feed in seconds • Simple orders, pickup codes, and payouts handled for you

Every cook films a kitchen walkthrough so you always know where your plate is made. Report and block tools keep the community safe.

Plates is a marketplace — food is prepared by independent home cooks, not by Plates.
