Uber Eats goes live

Motherwell foodies can now get Wishaw cuisine sent to their door thanks to the UberEats app.

The popular app will enable customers to receive their next meal directly to their homes at the touch of a button.

Customers can order from high street classic McDonald’s which is the first restaurant to launch in the area via the Uber Eats app.

Local favourites including Crolla Gelato Wishaw, Pizza Den & Grill and Pink Turban will also be joining the platform, with residents able to enjoy their favourite restaurant meals from the comfort and safety of their home.

Other Wishaw-based businesses on the app include The Olympia in Caledonian Road and Orange Bean in Main Street.

Locals can download the Uber Eats app on their smartphone (available for iOS and Android), or by visiting ubereats.com.

Toussaint Wattinne, general manager of Uber Eats in the UK, said: “We are really excited to be launching in Motherwell, firstly with McDonald’s, and a host of local restaurants joining in the coming weeks.

“As the nation’s lockdown slowly beings to lift, we hope to make it even easier for local residents to enjoy a variety of delicious food both comfortably and safely.”

Uber Eats has introduced measures to help ensure that every courier can access the PPE they need for free to help keep them safe when they deliver with Uber Eats.

As well as providing free sanitising products, Uber Eats is providing couriers with over one million masks.

The app is available every day of the week from 8am to midnight.
