    Won’t offloading the delivery to those services cost even more? They take a pretty hefty cut of the sale. Last I heard it was around 30% of an order.

      At least where I live, delivery food is extremely expensive for that reason. Restaurants have two prices: one for walk-ins and the other for delivery that they show on the apps. The restaurant business (especially for independent owners) has cutthroat margins already so the customer is always going to pay the fees, one way or another.

      They just offload it on consumers by raising the price of the food and the ever present tip feature.

      So done with post Covid timeline here.

      They will likely make a deal with a delivery company, as they should. It is inefficient for every restaurant to have delivery drivers.
