Take Aways
Ask a Question
When you get a take away do you order online or do you go in collect or do you call?
I generally get it online because we're a family of different tastes and its easier for my brain to see it written in front of me
I'm used to get take away but I got my brother to use the just eat app and it would be delivered to our home or we would eat fast food outside in a restaurant too
I never go and collect nowadays but used to in the past. It's pretty much always online nowadays I can't remember the last time I called a takeaway.
I live in an area where the local takeaway shop is about 7 miles from me. They charge me £10 to deliver. We don't have Deliverroo, or anything like that. So it's either stumping up the tenner or fetching it myself.
That’s like where my mum lives could never get a take away delivery because she lives in the middle of no where.
Depends what it is. If it's something like Domino's then online. If it's a local Chinese, by phone as they're not available online, and I can make special requests.
A lot of good Chinese are still by phone and collection iv noticed they haven’t seemed to join the online ordering yet
Faye1 I think anywhere that you want to make a little change to a menu item (or set menu), you have to call. You might have a request option on the website, but they're often ignored, so best to phone in these situations anyway.
MeestairChrees so far online Iv been lucky when I have requested certain things be added like cheese or no salad they have done it.
Faye1 mine are normally slightly fussier requests like swapping a dish out for something else on a set menu.
Faye1 also did an order with a chip shop at a families house and they ignored anything we requested. Felt weird even ordering chips online though - it's just not the kind of takeaway I'd ever think to order - just walk there and buy stuff, but it was a huge family gathering.
We usually use Just Eat or Uber Eats & get it delivered, unless we are getting Chinese then we phone & collect our fav Chinese round by us arent online & dont deliver.
I don't often get a takeaway but when I do I use Just Eat or Uber Eat and get it delivered as I can't drive due to medical reasons
i usually order online but havent in a while due to so many bad experiences lately of food poisoning
Usually call up and go collect it or just call into the shop, a lot of places don't deliver to me because I'm just over the radius
That’s like where my mum lives. she can’t get them to deliver because it’s out of the way but they are building new houses around now so maybe in the future it will be easier
I phone and have it delivered to my door. Im not tech savvy to order it online. My friend says its easy and knowing me id still get the order wrong lol .
I usually go and collect as the chinese i like doesn't deliver but isn't often i have a takeaway anymore as its just me, so trying to save money
I dont like speaking on the phone so i order it online for delivery and then someone else will go to the door for it
