Also, they handle multiple orders. So, by the time you get your food it’s lukewarm at best, but likely cold and soggy.
Last time I checked out of curiosity, this Mexican place near me sells burritos for $12. After fees and tips, it would’ve been $28 on Uber Eats. It’s just not worth it to me to pay extra, when I can easily drive the 10 minutes myself.
Yeah the cold and soggy is my main criticism. At that point I'd rather cook
Even pizza shops with their own drivers. I'd usually prefer to go get it myself so it's as fresh as possible.
