VERDICT

Should I use Grubhub?

Prepare your taste buds... - grubhub.com

Depends. Grubhub is a consumer food-delivery marketplace — free to use, pay per order with variable fees — fine for occasional delivery if you check the total at checkout. Skip it if you expected business software or the cheapest option; reviewed evidence was thin, so confidence is low.

Confidence

Low. Based on 45 public sources; most were unrelated restaurant marketing sharing the tagline — fewer than 5 were directly usable.
