    Where I live it’s about £2 more on a order of any cost. That’s not even close to being double, especially with a minimum spend of £10 lol.

    Hyperbolic comments are everywhere /s

      Turns out some places are different. Weird, right?

      You should check the price of the food on the DD menu isn’t also higher than the price on the regular menu. It may be a 2$ fee, but I’ve also seen higher per item prices.

      Indian take out for my wife costs about $44.

      The same items ordered on the delivery apps comes out to about $56 and then after fees and tips is roughly $80.

      I wish these companies were only $2 more expensive than just going to the restaurant.

      My experience using DoorDash and Uber eats is in the 2x range for costs. When I switch to pick up or order directly, it’s always about half the cost.

        This clearly differs wildly between countries. It’s just not this way at all on europe

        Considering I used GBP and door dash is not used in the country which has GBP as it’s primarily currency. You can live safe that I’m not a current door dash employee looking to retain angry American customers
