*Like 3 times. A expected delivery at 8:30 turned like 11:00 AM. The order cannot be cancelled on your end because apparently the service is still committed to this order and takes like 3 more delays for a cancel from their end. All for a huddle house biscuit, 2 sunny side up eggs, some bacon, and tater tots*

Yeah, I know, shoulda' go to get it myself and that is the lesson learned time and time again (yet I am hard-headed at times), but the extra upcharge for these services is supposed to be the convenience dammit. I'm hungry god damn it.

Sounds like the consistent Grubhub issue for my area. We only have about 4 drivers here because everyone prioritizes DoorDash, so every order's ETA is off by at least half an hour. Usually two, then auto-canceled.

Yeah its been pretty rough down my way for the past 6 months or so with grubhub.

*USPS isn't any better these days. I had a amazon clothes package I was supposed to get yesterday. It was marked at delivered at about 11:37 am, but there was no mail. This is another thing I'll have to wait like 48 hours with and hope it just randomly shows up today or tomorrow before I go to amazon and go through the refund song n' dance.*

At this point I just want to get my money back and go on about my day because this huddle house order is definitely not coming.

There was an apartment complex I lived in where delivery drivers I guess would get confused by the numbering and would often set things in front of the wrong apartment door. So if my food showed as delivered and it wasn't at my door I'd have to walk around trying to find which apartment they delivered it to instead.

Reminds me of the time when I was actually sitting at my front door watching this one grubhub breakfast order I made get delivered to the house across the street. I just quickly ran across the street, took it off their porch, and went back to my house.

Welp, driver disappeared/cancelled out, yeah this delivery is borked.

Yeah delivery is paused because of high demand so I have to get my ass up regardless.

GrubHub and Uber eats suck in my area.

Yeah that always sucks. I ordered lunch once from a chain restaurant and for whatever reason that location had an issue, so it redirected my order to another, much farther location. Turned a 30 minute delivery estimate into a 1 hour and 15 minute delivery estimate. Wish they gave me the option to cancel it before doing that lol

My hard-headed ass is going for attempt number 2. This time I just used the huddle house app and ordered through that. They appear to be using doordash for their deliveries. Honestly, it came out a bit cheaper ordering this way compared to using grubhub with it's free delivery via amazon prime.

Lets see if I get it this time. I really want this biscuit, =/

Yeah that happened once with a random mcdonalds breakfast order I had a year or two ago.

Don't know why, but the order could not go through to the mcdonalds that is like 2 miles away from my house. It redirected it to this order the next town over that is like 50 minutes away, and a driver actually picked it up and delivered it too.

I felt so bad since I only tipped that one about like 2.50 since I assumed it was going to be a short trip. I did give him like, 6 dollars change when he came though.

Grub hub is by far the worst of the big meal delivery services.

But the real winning move is not to use them at all. Even better, cook your own good since most big restaurants these days are overpriced poisonous slop.

I dunno why anyone bothers with this tbh.

I did order UE once, when my car had been in the shop for a couple of months and I really wanted some Wingstop without walking 14 miles round trip.

And that was fine, except for being expensive, I guess.

It was 10.47, with a driver tip of 1.57. Its a bit less than what I usually pay for being lazy.

The biscuit was aight, =/ lol

Glad you got your food finally.

I used to have dash pass via a promo for like 2 years....I might need to hunt more of those down because doordash is a much better service in comparison.

I might of had a problem with doordash once and was able to quickly get a refund for it. It was back when that grimace shake came out at mcdonalds. Ordered a chicken nugget combo with that shake and I think someone snatched that order up, =(

I'll never understand why, unless you're physically (or emotionally) unable to go get food yourself, why anyone would grubhub/uber eats their meals.

I can order 95% of my meals on an app, or via phone call, and go pick it up 5 times by the time a grubhub meal shows up.
You gotta laugh. That is the one thing at the end of your life you will not wish you did less of.

Depends on where you're ordering it from. Sometimes I'll order food on my lunch break because it would take my entire lunch break to go and get it myself. 30 minutes of driving for the Dasher vs 60 minutes round trip for me

If I was grubhub person and I saw busy place for breakfast I would delay your order on purpose

There is many legitimate reasons why someone would want to have something delivered, but like I said before in this case I was just lazy and paying for the convenience. This is just one of those times where paying 16 dollars or so (or in this case like 12 something. I had one of those discount offers that was actually decent today) wasn't going to break me so why not? Its just at times grubhub blows it is all, lol.

When food delivery goes well you get your food in like 30 minutes so you can continue cleaning the house, watching the kids, do yardwork, fixing up whatever is wrong on the car (another good reason....car failure. It happens) etc. etc.

I have Dashpass so I've only used doordash really. Usually have no problem other than the restaurant forgetting stuff.

I try not to order from places over 5 miles away which helps food being still fairly hot.

For me, I just can't past the upcharge. Especially when it's something like fast food where I know it would take me all of 15 minutes to just go get it myself.

that never happens where i live in the chicagoland area but it did happen often when i lived in iowa

i usually just complain at customer support and get a (near) full refund so it's hard for me to ever get too upset. i can't drive so i'm already using uber a fair bit so all my uber one credits gets used for food

Trust me food delivery isn't a common thing for me at all. like 95 percent of the time I am going to get food myself (there is this nice ramen place in my town where you get a pretty nice packed full of veggies and meat ramen for 12 dollars. This same place via food delivery not only is that same ramen like 19.95 on the online delivery menus but then you have to pay the service fee, pushing this kind of thing well around the 28 dollar range to get delivered. I def draw the line with the pricier delivery menus). I do agree the upcharge is pricey in general.

Its a every once in a blue moon kind of thing to do.

Matter of fact, the last time I used grubhub outside of my attempt this morning was back in november.
