Uber Eats: Food & Groceries

We can’t be the only ones to have opened the fridge, sighed at the sliver of chorizo, single, questionable tomato and fragments of what used to be cheese before wishing a genie would appear and sort us some decent dinner.

Well, although we can’t hook you up with your own wish-granting magic man, if you need help satisfying your hunger without hitting the shops or putting in any effort, Uber Eats has you covered.

For when a traditional takeaway just won’t cut it, Uber Eats lets you pick from dozens of restaurants in your local area before ferrying their food to your door.

And with enough options to ensure your current craving is always suitably satisfied, it’s like having all the choice of an evening out without having to actually drag yourself off the sofa.

Uber Eats has a category for delivery under 25 minutes.

So, whether you’re after a big, greasy burger or a serving of vegan mac and cheese, a bubble tea or a side of fries, Uber Eats will get it to you in less time than it would take you to pop out and pick it up.

And there’s no need to pace around your living room, intermittently peering through your curtains asking ‘is it here yet?’ Instead, the app lets you track your meal every step of the way with real-time mapping.

Need your pizza fix, stat? You can even order with Apple Pay to save a further few precious seconds.

Wait! Our driver just turned down our road with our order on board. It’s almost here and we haven’t even got our plates ready. Sorry, we’ve got to go, enjoy your dinner.
