After you’ve combed through all the articles for apartment renters and perfected your space, you might not want to leave it to get food. Thankfully, modern technology has you covered! There are several options for apps that make food delivery a breeze so you can enjoy your time at home and let dinner come to you. Here are seven of our favorite food delivery apps for Phoenix residents.
1 Uber Eats
If you already have an Uber account, this is one of the easiest food delivery apps to use. You can use your existing login information to see a full list of participating restaurants around Phoenix. The app is as intuitive as you’d expect from an Uber product. It’s easy to sort by categories like fast food, chain, and local restaurants. Add items to your cart, confirm the delivery address, and confirm the delivery time and price. A driver will pick up the food for you and bring it directly to the door.
2 DoorDash
DoorDash is one of the most comprehensive food delivery apps in North America, which makes it especially perfect for people who travel often. Put in your address and any special delivery instructions, and it will expose you to a massive selection of restaurants and even liquor stores. You’ll be able to track your order in real time until it arrives at your door, but you won’t be waiting long. DoorDash uses a delivery service fee to ensure they won’t have to enforce an order minimum. It’s not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for here.
3 Blue Apron
Blue Apron is a different kind of food delivery service. It allows you to replace grocery shopping with a subscription to one of their plans. They deliver fresh, pre-portioned food to your door each week, and you can cook without tracking down ingredients at the supermarket. You’ll eat healthily and pick up some cooking skills in the process. If you want, you can even add a wine pairing to some of the dishes. Invite a guest over, and they’ll be blown away by your class without realizing just how easy it was!
4 Grubhub
Grubhub offers a twist that makes it stand out from some other food delivery apps. Instead of searching by restaurant then scrolling through a bunch of menus, you can search for the specific food item you want. For example, if you have your heart set on a falafel, you can type that into the app and see which restaurants are offering that. You won’t have to look for a needle in a haystack, and it takes the guesswork out of the equation. This is a great option for people who are new to the area or just want to explore new food options. Best of all, Grubhub allows a ton of different payment options and doesn’t charge extra for delivery.
5 BeyondMenu
BeyondMenu, as the name might suggest, goes a step further than some of its peers. In addition to ordering pickup and delivery, this app allows you to make reservations. This is one of the best-programmed apps available, and it offers complete integration with all of a restaurant’s options. Search by food ethnicity or style, desired meal time, and even dietary restrictions. BeyondMenu offers multiple payment options, including the ability to scan your card through a smartphone’s camera.
6 Postmates
Postmates first made their claim to fame by partnering with establishments that offer 24/7 service so that you can get your delivery any time of day or night. Their search feature is intuitive and gives you plenty of options, so you can find just about anything you want. Locally owned restaurants and major chains alike are right at your fingertips. You can also get things like groceries, alcohol, and gifts. They offer special deals to help offset their delivery fees, and the full-service approach makes it all worth it.
7 Delivery.com
Some other apps have expanded their offerings to items from a few establishments besides restaurants, but Delivery.com really blows the whole industry wide open. You can schedule delivery for food, groceries, and alcohol, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. If you want your clothes washed and folded, or some dry cleaning for your professional attire, they’ll handle that too. They’ve even integrated Yelp reviews so you can branch out without fear.
