Deliveroo And The End Of Ringing The Takeaway
No more reading your order out over a bad line.
Food delivery apps replaced the paper menu drawer and the awkward phone call in about four years.

The phone call had a rhythm to it: repeating the order back, the postcode, the twenty-five minutes that meant forty.

Free, just a phone call
Goes for now
Delivery fee, service fee, and a tip prompt
