A Comparison of the Top 4 Food Delivery Apps
The top four delivery apps are DoorDash, UberEats, GrubHub, and Postmates. The emergence of food delivery services are in high-demand, especially given their convenience. Below is a comparison of the top 4 food delivery apps.
We wanted to put together a comparative analysis of the top 4 food delivery options for our followers. Let’s face it, there’s going to be a time when you run out of canned tuna and pasta, or you just have to have those tacos from that Mexican restaurant you used to go to every Tuesday.
DoorDash
A “dashing” fact, this app services over 310,000 restaurants in 4000 cities worldwide, mostly in the USA. The app itself is easy to use and the options are plentiful. You can search by delivery time, type of cuisine, reviews and more.
Once you find the restaurant you want, you can scroll through the menu right on the user interface and choose your meals. The delivery fee is a $5.99 flat fee for any delivery. Discounts are always fun. First-timer? you will get $5 off your first delivery and the estimated delivery is usually spot on! They will even deliver alcoholic beverages, and during these wild times we could all use a beer or two.
For all of you who frequently ate out but are now quarantined at your house, they also offer a subscription service where you can pay $10 a month for free deliveries and lower service fees.
Last but not least, DoorDash donates one meal through the Feeding America Charity for every order placed every January. Give them a shot, if you need a tasty meal or want to support your local restaurants through the difficult times.
Uber Eats
Everyone has heard of Uber which is widely known for their ride sharing platform. You can now get the same benefits by using Uber Eats. Some of the most convenient options all in one app. Plus, you can now use ApplePay when placing an order.
Uber Eats is partnered with over 320,000 restaurants in over 500 cities across the globe. According to their website they also have an average delivery time of less than 30 minutes. On top of that, you can track the delivery driver in real time. You can see exactly where they are and how long it will be until your food is delivered. The app also allows you to choose what you’re craving.
Uber delivery fee starts at $4.99 and goes up depending on the distance. There are also coupon codes to use to get your first delivery free.
GrubHub
Next on our list of essential take out delivery apps is the infamous GrubHub. GrubHub features over 300,000 restaurants in over 1200 U.S. cities and London. They’ve been in business since 2004 and have since acquired other similar services like “Seamless.”
Affordability wise, the delivery fees for Grubhub vary and are usually set by the restaurant partner. Doing so, gives the restaurants a little more say in how operations are run. You choose your restaurant of choice, pick your menu items, and food is then delivered right to your doorstep.
There’s also a $10/month subscription option for deliveries but only certain restaurants are participants.
Postmates
A slightly different app feature than the other three delivery options. Postmates will actually pick up nearly anything you choose and deliver it to your door. They don’t partner with any restaurants but they’re available for service in all 50 states and over 4200 cities.
Postmates charges a variable percentage based fee for every order. During busy delivery times, there might be an additional “Blitz Pricing fee” as well.
Additionally, there’s the unlimited” service for $10 a month. This option gives you free delivery from select stores and restaurants on orders of over $12.
Moreover, you will find that these 4 options for food delivery are convenient, especially during the uncertain times. Stay home when possible and utilize delivery options. If one of the big four doesn’t deliver to your area I’m nearly certain one of the other three will.
Lastly, these 4 fantastic restaurant food delivery services offer contact free delivery options. Customers can choose where they want the delivery to be left. All payments including tip can be done right from the phone. A freshly cooked restaurant meal is at your doorstep within 30 minutes to an hour.
