They suck
October 21, 2020

We placed an order for cool hand lukes, the order came fairly quick but had no silverware to eat and missing half the order. When we called and let the guy know why we were calling he placed us on hold for over an hour never coming back on the line, then we were disconnected. No resolution offered! The worst service ever!

Bad a company!
October 21, 2020

They ordered from us and when they came to pick up their order they left and never paid us and we already made the food. They have terrible service and they very overpriced. It's a much better deal if you just order from the regular restaurant and have them deliver for it because the offer is more worth it and they never pay us so don't go on Grubhub because they have terrible service and their food is highly overpriced.

So Disappointed!
October 19, 2020

We have ordered from Grubhub twice now. Both times we were missing items. Recently, we ordered 2 Sandwiches and 2 bags of chips. We only received 1 sandwich. When I let them know, they sent me an email saying they would give us a refund. I didn't want a refund. I wanted them to bring us the rest of our food! That was not an option. To add insult to injury, we never received the refund!

They never forget to charge you and sometimes they even charge you twice in the same month but hey who cares because when you order something don't plan on ever seeing your delivery. Not only do they cancel your order without saying anything to you but they also market is being delivered so you're running downstairs Beamer high-rise building to get your food that never arrived. Only to find out after you make a phone call would happen. Even their confused at customer service. It takes them a while to figure out that the restaurant didn't have what you wanted so they just cancel your order. Meanwhile you see the driver Driver is waiting at the restaurant and on his way with your food. That's what it shows so all that time you think the driver is on his way to deliver your food when really they canceled your order and nobody even bothers to give you a call or a text message. Thanks a lot GrubHub. Once again you suck total $#*!

After waiting 50 minutes for our food, I saw driver was close and went outside to wait. When no one came I checked the site which said it had been delivered 5 minutes ago. I chatted with Grubhub agent who defaulted to crediting my account. Hungry, I asked them to contact the driver to determine where he left it. Driver could only remember he left it outside. Since I had been standing outside I knew it wasn' Within a block of my house. Outcome no food... but I can order and wait another hour and take a chance on a better driver.

Wth?
October 18, 2020

The app claimed my food was delivered at 4:54 on 10/18/2020, yet it's still not at my door 10 minutes later. Went to get a refund and the driver gets to keep the tip? Seriously? I wouldn't have tipped at all if I wasn't gonna get my food

Grubhub sucks
October 18, 2020

We ordered a Canadian bacon pizza and a pepperoni sausage black olive and onion pizza. Got a onion pizza and a ham pizza instead. They would not replace our order nor refund us last time we will use them

The worst!
October 18, 2020

The last three times I've ordered from Grubhub nothing has gone right! Not my order, missing key ingredients that make up my order and a lost order. When the food was missing essential ingredients they only wanted to give me $1.60 back of my $25 order! I had to call the restaurant itself to get my full refund! I am utterly disgusted with this app and will never use it again and also tell everyone NOT to use it!

Horrible service
October 17, 2020

The customer is obviously at the mercy of Grub Hub's ability to find a driver for your delivery. I made a large order for a local restaurant with a delivery time of 6:30 PM. Grub Hub was sorry but my order would be delayed (no reason given) and be delivered between 7:55 and 8:05 PM! That was totally unacceptable. I called Grub Hub's customer service to cancel my order. They sort of said it was a "scheduling" problem. I then called the restaurant directly, put in my order and picked it up, still sooner than 8:05. I am in the older category and try to protect myself from COVID-19 by using delivery. But I will not ever use Grub Hub again!

Ripoff
October 12, 2020

In person $36.20, via Grubhub $64.40. You be the judge. Order direct. The cost of the items is higher on Grubhub's site than in the actual restaurant. Tax is added on top of not only the merchandise, but on the 15% Grubhub service fee as well. Than the delivery fee and still asking for 20-30% driver tip. In numbers, I placed the same order over Grubhub as I went to the restaurant 4 blocks from my house. In person I paid $36.20 total, Grubhub charged me $64.40. Spoke to the owner. Grubhub increases the price list on the menu, charges the owner for 15% (in addition to the consumer's charge), and the restaurant is responsible for the credit card authorization fee. The restaurant and it's workers lose. They don't get a penny tip. They pay for rent, produce, gas, electric, wages to stay open.

Expensive
October 8, 2020

Grubhub is great, but they are WAY too expensive. Using grubhub over uber eats, you will pay about 30%-40% or more going through grubhub over uber eats. Support uber eats if you want to save money. It's pretty ridiculous how much grubhub charges in fees and taxes ON TOP OF your bill to the restaurant, and THEN they still ask how much you want to pay the driver.

USLESS!
October 8, 2020

So, Grubhub can take your money and verify that they get paid, but apparently they can't verify your order I was missing multiple items, and when the driver got here, it was basically, sorry, I can't help you, call the restaurant or Grubhub. BTW, thanks for the tip, my words, not hers.

Horrible customer service and and do not keep menus up to date. Charged for an order that was canceled by the store during to incorrect menu. Stilled showed as a delivered order and charged. Store confirmed cancel and agent still tried to fight refund. Worst CS ever. Do not recommend. They need to do out of business. Regal movies did and had great customer service and had to close. Grub hub should too and has terrible customer service.

Terrible Service
October 3, 2020

2 straight horrible experiences here. The first time the order was wrong and it was delivered 25 min late. Fine, maybe it was a fluke then the 2nd time, I waited for 2 hours and never received anything and when I reached out to see what was going on, I was just told it was canceled and thats it. Completely horrible

Overall management
October 2, 2020

I sincerely think that is a clown company, real joke. Sending from one side of the city to the other. After trying this for 3 month this is the end of the line for me. Few cent to go to the customer but zero for the pick up. Doesn't even cover the gas, the reparations and the incredible time consuming of waiting. Can't make $ with a dollar tips. Don't think you can make a living out out that circus here in pueblo. I just think that in 2020 more procedure should be taken to redirect the order to the closest store.

I would give the zero stars if possible. I was using a discount code for my order and contacted customer chat because the code did not deduct the promised amount. He told me to place the order and he would issue a credit for the correct amount. After I placed the order, he told me to read the fine legal print that states the maximum discount is $10.00, which he failed to mention in discussion PRIOR to my placing the order. Which I would have reduced had he given me the correct information beforehand. I will NEVER use them again.
