I used to use grubhub, but swiched to http://eat24hours.com/ – much better, they have great coupons and discounts. I would say they are the best food delivery service in San Francisco and the bay area

Our users and I personally, love using GrubHub.com b/c sometimes I don’t know what I’m in the mood to eat and it’s so much easier to go to one site, type in my address and see all the restaurants that deliver to me and to view their menus. It beats going through that messy draw of paper menus (no need to kill off more trees). As for phone orders, you could pick up the phone and order your food, but on a busy Saturday night, who wants to be put on hold a bunch a times. But if you still want that human interaction, we list the phone numbers of the restaurants so you can still call in your order.

Why can’t one just pickup the phone and order?
Why go to a web-page on internet and order?

Huh…

Pretty funny (and telling) actually. Techcrunch deviates from the high flying start-up news and posts about a real business bringing in real revenue, and it gets flamed for deviating from the script. Now you know why companies that won’t be in business in two years get all the print. That’s what people apparently want to hear about.
Sorry, forgot to add great post! Can’t wait to see your next post!

@Aaron Richard, I have to disagree as well.

Attributable to the relatively small size of San Francisco, I was surprised by the number (20+) of restaurants that delivered to Potrero Hill, which is certainly not the heart of the city. But I’d think somewhere like San Diego or LA would be much harder to pull off.

Congratulations guys… I’m sure its been a challenging time to get funding.

Glad to see some Chicago based companies reppin’ on TC.

Seriously JB. TechCrunch finally writes an article about a start-up that has a real business model and you make your snide comment about their funding to fuel expansion. You fail JB.

I haven’t used GrubHub personally but it seems to be very useful for those who order delivery. The site seems easy to use.

George,

You are right and LA. It’s on our list. So keep a look out, it might happen sooner than later.

And in related news Joe’s Pizza Shack secured a round of angel funding to purchase a new Ford Escort to expand delivery service to the south side of Pittsburgh.

Joe says they’re working on funding for an Internet order system, in the meantime you’ve got to pick up the phone and call in your order.

It’s been satisfying to be able to grow the business and secure this funding for GrubHub.com.

I live in Oakland and I use this site for food deliveries. I went to Los Angeles this past weekend and was a little disappointed that they do not yet serve the Los Angeles area, this idea can be really huge.

Seamless is a fine service as well, but they are not the same as GrubHub.com. We are the only site that shows all the restaurants that deliver. Seamless only shows restaurants that have contracts with them.
