What are you doing for lunch? It’s the question we hear just about every day from co-workers and friends, right? Well, MealPal Denver is here to make answering the ubiquitous question easier. Its new subscription lunch service is convenient, low-cost and full of flavorful options.

For a monthly fee starting at $120, workers pick their lunch carry-out in advance. Subscribers get 20 lunches, which breaks down to just $6 per meal. Sounds like a tasty deal to us, given the low-cost and time saved. Part of the low-cost structure means no delivery. You must still go and pick-up your lunch, but we think that’s a good thing. You need to get away from the desk and out in the world — even for just 30 minutes during the day.

To launch the new service, they’re hosting a Launch Party and Tasting on Tuesday, September 26 at 5:30 p.m. Admission is FREE and everyone is invited. The celebration takes place at Modworks Coworking (110 16th St.) in Denver. You must RSVP here.
