How do I watch Food Network?
Food Network is included on many standard cable and satellite packages through traditional pay-TV providers. If you have a supported pay-TV subscription, you can also use your credentials to stream Food Network via the channel's website on a computer or laptop, or through the Food Network Go app.
The Food Network Go app is available on iPhone, Android, Android TV, Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV, and Samsung smart TVs. Once signed in with your pay-TV username and password, the app offers access to the live Food Network channel as well as more than 10,000 on-demand episodes from Food Network's library of shows.
If you've already cut the cord from traditional cable and satellite providers, you can watch Food Network through a variety of live TV streaming services as well. Hulu + Live TV, Fubo Pro Plan, Sling TV Subscription, Youtube TV, DirecTV Stream, and Philo TV all include Food Network as part of their entry-level streaming plans.
For those who want access to Food Network programming on a budget, Philo TV offers the most affordable option at just $20 per month for live streaming access. The service features a total of 59 channels for that price, including other popular networks like AMC and Comedy Central. With that said, Philo TV does not include any local channels, like NBC or Fox.
If you'd like to receive Food Network as part of a live TV streaming package with local channels, we recommend Sling TV's Blue subscription plan. This option costs $20 for the first month and $30 per month following that initial discount. For this price, you get access to over 45 channels, including Food Network, AMC, CNN, FX, and local NBC and Fox stations in select markets.
