Careem has launched a three-course lunch deal for only Dhs29 in Abu Dhabi
Flying solo for lunch again? We've all been there – scrolling through endless menus, only to end up overpaying for a meal-for-one that didn't exactly hit the spot anyway.
But now there's a slick new solution from Careem that's here to save your midday munch. Say hello to Meals:On.
Launching in Abu Dhabi, Meals:On is Careem Food's newest feature and it's tailor-made for the city's solo diners. The idea is simple: curated, quality meal deals from top Abu Dhabi spots – all under Dhs29. We're talking mains, sides and drinks bundled together for less than the price of your favourite brunch drink.
Here's why this is a game-changer: over 64 percent of Careem Food's customers in the UAE usually order for one, especially during lunch. Inspired by Careem's 2022 acquisition of solo-meal platform Munch:On, Meals:On was rebuilt from scratch to streamline lunch breaks and late-night cravings for solo foodies across the capital.
And there's more good news. If you're a Careem Plus member, delivery is totally free – even if your meal costs just Dhs15. That means no more feeling guilty about ordering dinner for one or padding your basket just to hit a minimum spend.
You'll find dishes from your Abu Dhabi faves like:
Wagamama
Wingstop
Just Burger
Papa Johns
Allo Beirut
Zaatar w Zeit
Right Bite
Barbar
Costa
Sushi Do
(And more).
Careem's promising even more coming soon, including options for couples, small group bundles, meal planning and scheduling. And Dubai, you're up next.
So if your midday meetings are running long and your fridge is looking sad, fire up the Careem app, hit Meals:On and order something delicious without breaking the bank – or your lunch break.

MAJRA National CSR Fund Signs MoU with Careem to Expand Summer Support for Delivery Captains
In a move to safeguard delivery captains during the UAE's scorching summer months, the MAJRA National CSR Fund has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Careem to boost its annual summer support initiatives across four emirates. The agreement, formalized in the presence of Abdullah bin Touq Al Marri, Minister of Economy and Chairman of MAJRA's Board of Trustees, aims to enhance conditions for more than 60,000 delivery riders in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Ras Al Khaimah. This year's campaign will see a significant expansion in services, including mobile, air-conditioned rest stations and sustainable, solar-powered cooling hubs. These stops will provide free Wi-Fi, drinking water, and refreshments at high-traffic delivery zones. Careem CEO and co-founder Mudassir Sheikha emphasized the importance of the initiative, calling it 'tangible, on-the-ground support' designed to help captains work more safely and comfortably in extreme heat. In addition to rest areas, Careem is distributing 'Captain Kits' containing towels, water bottles, and hydration supplements. Through a partnership with the Pakistan Association Dubai, delivery captains will also receive free health screenings throughout the summer. MAJRA CEO Sarah Shaw said the initiative aligns with the UAE's 'Year of Community,' reinforcing MAJRA's commitment to supporting on-the-ground projects that promote welfare and resilience among frontline workers.
