RANKED: We tried 7 food delivery services to see who would bring us the best lunch

Published by Business Insider on Sun, 24 Jul 2016


No one likes to pick up the phone and call for delivery or take-out anymore. Instead, more and more food delivery is shifting to online, where you can order from just a few taps in an app.The question is: Which app do you choose'Business Insider put seven apps to the test to see which could bring us the freshest, fastest, and cheapest lunch.There's a lot of options out there, but after trying seven head-to-head, we've ranked the ones we're most likely to use again.SEE ALSO:Google used this woman's name on all its Docs templates, and she's spent the last 2 years dealing with confused and angry messagesIn the US, analysts estimate that only 10% of restaurants take online orders. Having 90% of the market left to conquer has caused a gold rush of companies trying to cash in. Right now, GrubHub is the market leader in terms of ordering share. But is it really the best service'San Francisco is a test bed for the biggest market leaders in food delivery, so we decided to try and find out. We ordered from seven different services ' GrubHub, Eat24, Caviar, DoorDash, Postmates, UberEats, and Amazon Prime Now ' in the ultimate delivery showdown.Who are all these contenders'You've probably heard of GrubHub, which operates in more than 900 cities and owns Seamless as well as a few other smaller delivery companies.Yelp-owned Eat24 is often the default ordering option on the reviews site, but it has a standalone app, too, so that it can serve up hot dishes in over 1,500 cities.Caviar is owned by Square, the payments company. It's only available in about a dozen US cities, including Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, New York City, and the San Francisco Bay Area.DoorDash just celebrated its third birthday, making it the youngest independent company on this list. In that short time, it has already expanded into 26 cities around the country.Postmates, which has raised around $130 million, specializes in on-demand delivery for lots of stuff, not just lunches. You can check out the app in about 40 cities around the US.Think Uber is just for cheap rides' Think again. Right now, its speedy food service, UberEats, is available in more than a dozen cities.Amazon has long been a go-to place for buying pretty much everythingexcept hot food. Now it's trying to change that. Its lightening-fast Now service is reserved exclusively for Prime members and includes a boatload of essential shopping items as well as restaurant delivery.We couldn't find one restaurant that appeared on every app, so we chose two equidistant from our office and selected similarly priced menu items. The menu: $6 worth of tacos from one and $6 worth of avocado toast from the other.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
