It's a mixed bag. Imagine having only three restaurants that deliver to you (and two suck) and then all the sudden you have a whole city of restaurants that are available to you and you hardly ever have time or want to deal with going into the city to do a pickup. That's my experience. I don't use it everyday or every week, but it just stinks that when I do it's very expensive and hey, maybe that's justiable (freemarket whatever), but to have service issues where clearly zero effort was made to transport the stuff appropriately feels like a real "hehe".

It seems like it would be much cheaper and better to just go to the restaurant and eat there instead of dumping money on doordash

i had to use it when i didn't have a car and couldn't get groceries or whatever sometimes. nice little tool to keep the poor poorer

Or like, what if you're drunk/high and traveling isn't really an option, but you're hungry? I've never used DoorDash, but it seems like that's the type of thing that'd get the majority of business.

Ok, I'll do that when Burger King lets me smoke a fat blunt in their dining room.
