why even use door dash in the first place when the restaurant has a website?
that’s always the first thing I check
no website = no order from me
I’ll even pick up the phone and call if I absolutely have to, but I’m not paying third party delivery apps that can’t even pay their staff
Whenever I’m using my maps app to find somewhere local to get food from, it is all ready to provide me with Doordash or Yelp. If there’s a “website” attached at all, it’s usually a frickin’ Facebook page.
But I can usually plug the name + town into DuckDuckGo, and wouldn’t ya know it, they do have their own website! With lower prices!
I’ve submitted corrections to the map app before, listing the correct websites. I’ve done it numerous times for my favorite places, over the course of years. Nothing ever changes. I’m 99% certain it’s all part of some grift - Doordash et. al. probably have some kind of deal to make their pages the main/only options. I have no evidence of it, but nothing else makes sense.
I started a door dash order the other day and it ended up being like $110, so I made the same order on the restaurant website and it was only $60.
