THE five most popular takeaways being ordered through Grimsby’s Deliveroo have been revealed. Deliveroo, an on-demand food delivery app service, launched in Grimsby just under two months ago.

It has proved popular with people living in Grimsby and Cleethorpe­s during lockdown - and is expected to maintain this popularity after the country returns to its new normal.

New data revealed that Saturday at 8.19pm is the most popular time for customers to order from Deliveroo, with American food, followed by Middle Eastern and British as the most popular options so far. Deliveroo has broken this down further to discover what takeaways in Grimsby and Cleethorpe­s have proven to be the go-to favourites since its launch.

Most popular dishes ordered during the first few months on Grimsby’s Deliveroo:

1. Boneless Banquet from KFC 2. Doner Kebab from Kebab House 3. Large Battered Haddock from Chips & Fish

4. Steakhouse Angus Burger from Burger King

5. Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich from Goodburger

In cities and towns across the country, Deliveroo is working closely with local restaurant­s to reach new customers.

In Grimsby, 60 per cent of the restaurant­s available are local independen­ts, helping to create new revenue streams for homegrown culinary talent. A Deliveroo spokespers­on said: “Deliveroo is focused on providing the ultimate food delivery experience and flexibilit­y, as customers have the option to schedule orders via the Deliveroo app up to one day in advance or receive food as soon as possible between noon and 11pm, and from noon on the weekends, from a variety of leading local, independen­t and best-loved chain restaurant­s, convenient­ly delivered to their homes and offices.

“The food delivery company will continue to add new local restaurant­s, takeaways and convenienc­e stores to the platform over the coming months, with the likes of Costa Coffee joining Deliveroo as lockdown eases. If any restaurant­s or grocers in Grimsby are wanting to join Deliveroo, they can apply here to become a partner.” The spokespers­on added: “The launch of Deliveroo in Grimsby has also helped to create new opportunit­ies for locals, with the food-delivery platform looking to add more riders in Grimsby to keep up with customer demand.

“Being a Deliveroo rider is a great opportunit­y for those who have other commitment­s, such as existing work or students looking for flexible work to fit around study.

“Many riders working with Deliveroo find it empowers them to keep fit while earning at the same time.

“If anyone in Grimsby is interested in applying to be a rider, they can find more informatio­n and sign up on Deliveroo’s rider website.”
