Remember folks, you can still just call restaurants and place delivery orders by talking to a human being (gasps!) without paying the Silicon Valley VC/IPO tax.

- JohnFen 7y agoNot all restaurants offer delivery, but most will let you pick your order up.
- deviner 7y agoI think you under estimate how many people are lazy and willing to eat all those costs to not leave their house, and have the food delivered right to their door. Even more so in big cities where most of the population doesn't have a car. not my comment buy I agree
- paulddraper 7y agoYes, delivery.
- bogomipz 7y agoI've actually noticed more than a few restaurants in places like NYC tell me I had to use one of their preferred online delivery services to place a delivery order. For anyone who knows the culture of food delivery in NYC this is kind of shocking development.
- JohnFen 7y ago> tell me I had to use one of their preferred online delivery services to place a delivery order. Yes, there are quite a few restaurants in my area that do this as well. I make sure to tell them that means that I'm going to order from some other restaurant that actually offers real delivery.
- austhrow743 7y agoMaybe where you are. All of the places I've lived have had only one type of restaurant (pizza) offering delivery themselves. The apps aren't about convenience of not talking on the phone, they're about the convenience of having delivery from that restaurant be an option at all.
