This is how much restaurants really make when you order from Grubhub or Uber Eats

Yeah I just signed up for their newsletter. If they have a store in the Bay Area I'm going to go there to try them out when lockdown ends.
Still not sure if I'm going to get an electric since they're harder to fix and only have a 20 mile range (I usually do that and then some in a 4 hour shift). But it's definitely worth considering. Right now bolt is renting theirs out for $30 a week to uberEats couriers so I'm going to check them out too.
Like I said they have more expensive 1s that go up to 40mph without changing.. Also remember you still can pedal, do a pedal + boost, or go full automatic ride
Yeah after seeing that I stopped using Grubhub and just started calling the spots directly.
But I have that option cause I'm in NY. I know a lot of people in smaller cities don't.
Fa real
It also explains why the grubhub menus prices are at times higher than the restaurant online menu prices. Seems like you would have to be a chain spot and moving big volume to make it worth it.
This...
I ordered a burger from this joint for pickup thru doordash. When I got there to pick it up the owner of the place recognized me and told me flat out I paid more for my food ordering thru doordash than if I had gone to his website and placed my order there.
If the place your ordering from has a website, place it there.
If you know what you want can call it in and pick it up, then do that.
If they deliver, then that's even better. Your last resort should be uber eats, doordash, Grubhub, etc. Even when they get you with that free delivery shit you still end up paying more.
It's booming now more than ever so some spots that are popular should be making plenty of money.The ones that aren't weren't going to last anyways,delivery services should help and it helps some gain new customers who are at home,hungry and want to try something new.
I don't use em,only did it once and that was for mothers day cause I didn't have time to be searching for cakes,cards,chocolate and shit.

Gettin straight up ganked
Driver?Sounds like you’re a delivery driver that’s always late with multiple orders driving a shitty car trying to deliver food with your shirt off and a fistful of their fries talking about “I didn’t eat it”.
He RIDES a fucking bike with a helmet like a dweeb.
I have been poisoned twice at restaurants which caused me to vomit; they're trying to set up some other scheme to get me. They could've just as easily killed me if they wanted to at these restaurants.
I am loving them getting shut down and going out of business.
Why would people think their orders would be the same price? How would these delivery companies make money if the food was the same price? The delivery person got to get paid + the middleman got to get paid aka the delivery company.. That should be captain obvious.. You think you gonna order a dollar fries and somehow a driver, a company, and the restaurant gonna eat off that? Fuck outta here.. Them fries gonna be 6-7 bucks minimum
My neighbor is literally door dashing every day... these mofos got a car.. I’m like y’all some fuckin clown smh
Ya do know instacart jacks the prices up to right?
He's on the way. Give him another 20 min or so.I’m waiting on some shit right now... ordered hour and half ago
Good info and discussion, everyone.
Uber makes takeover offer for GrubHub, but both sides remain at odds on price
Grubhub denied earlier this year that it was for sale.
This is true. Usually Grubhub prices are around a dollar to two dollars more than what the restaurant charges.
You niggas are the most scary people on earth. Most Resteraunts have seals on the bag and or container the foods in and if broken it shows tampering . Second the food doesn’t even take that long to be delivered. Third I live in the city and parking is horrible, you can’t always just drive park, get out and go. Y’all have a weird mentality. You’re so paranoid about the delivery driver but will eat food cooked by other people ? So you trust them? LOL
Ya'll are tripping. They didn't sell 46 $22 meals, that total is Grubhub's overhead PLUS the cost of the meals. The restaurant doesn't feel any of that cost burden.
very intersting timing huh?
Uber Said to Be in Talks to Acquire Grubhub (Published 2020)
A deal would unite two large players in food delivery as more people order in meals during the pandemic.
Instacart next. The price you pay for them groceries is exorbitantly high compared to if you shop it yourself.
Years ago, my wife and I decided to stop eating out completely. We got tired of giving away our hard-earned money for the purposes of convenience.
The quality of the food was usually hit or miss, while the total costs, including gratuity were not sustainable for our financial plan.
Neither one of us wanted to much spend time in the kitchen after coming home from work to prepare a meal for the family, so we started cooking food by using slow cookers and other types of devices that allowed us to come home from work and have hot and healthy meals ready to eat everyday.
For a family of four, we quickly realized monthly savings of roughly $1,000.00. We started applying these savings toward our mortgage's principal balance. Our 30-year conventional mortgage was paid off in less than 15 years.
Our weight decreased, health improved, bank account balance increased and family time together improved.
This may not work for everyone, but it worked for my family.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
