Our take on Akela

Written by us, from the labels. Never written, reviewed or paid for by the brand.

Akela is a British brand built on high-meat, low-carbohydrate recipes, and the scores follow. 8 rated foods averaging 80/100 (Very good), running 54 to 89 - a spread of 35 points - ranking 103 of 304.

Its best, Akela 80:20 Fish Feast, reaches 89/100. The formula is straightforward: a lot of named meat, declared as a percentage, with a short supporting list and no reliance on the categories that make a label unreadable. Our score rewards exactly that.

Cost is reasonable for the standard at around £0.96 a day for the cheapest option, which undercuts several better-known premium brands scoring no higher.

Sold largely direct and through independents, which is usually why a brand this good has a profile this quiet.

Worth putting on the shortlist if you want high meat content without a subscription attached.
