Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 527 reviews, most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Customers frequently encountered significant problems with delivery services, noting orders often arrived late, cold, or were delivered to incorrect locations, often with wrong or missing items. Reviewers found customer service largely unhelpful, providing scripted responses and sometimes blaming the customer. Obtaining refunds was a common source of frustration, with many reporting difficulties, partial refunds, or outright denials. However, some people mentioned specific issues with driver conduct, such as taking multiple orders, making detours, or not following instructions. Customers also experienced platform problems like late order adjustments, limited restaurant availability, and complex refund processes. Dissatisfaction was noted regarding the pre-tipping system and the inability to retrieve tips for poor service.

Worse then door dash

Worse then door dash. Atleast door dash is on time grubhub so late and asking for more money. If you have a choice go with door dash. Grubhub cant even make a 10min delivery within 2hrs. They waited so long the place closed before the food was delivered and the place was open for those 2 hrs.

First and last time user

This was my first time using GrubHub and the order was delivered without the most expensive part (the whole reason I made the order in the first place). When I contacted customer service, they flatly refused to answer any basic questions or fulfill any basic expectations of customer service. When I pointed out that this is bad customer service, they ended the chat/hung up on me. Never again

If I could leave 0 stars I would

If I could leave 0 stars I would. Our food is continually cold. The drivers make 2 other stops before ours and support is AI or someone from outside the US that doesn’t help. The most the ever give is $10. A complete waste of time and will never get my business again.

Had a horrible experience today

Had a horrible experience today. I ordered from Red Lobster and half the order was missing. Our ordered included two drinks. The bag was not sealed and you could easily look in it, therefore it was obvious the drinks weren't there. Additionally the food we did receive was cold. I called and they can't just reorder the missing food, so I have to wait for a refund and then it cost me even more because I had to reorder the missing food. In the end I am pretty sure the driver just kept the missing food items.

When the food is Unedible you send picture,they review and still refuse a refund if you have complained more than twice, if the Restaurant is sending out old food every day ,you have a right to complain every day,they care more about making their money instead the well-being of the customers !! This is sad!!

The worst delivery app period

The worst delivery app period. Reliably poor sercice. Tonight was our last try. A smallish order from Circle K and a 30% tip delayed, delayed, delayed. Kept throwing account credits at me to not cancel and then 15 minutes later they just cancel and send and email. wth

We always order from DoorDash with virtually no problems at all. I wanted to order from a restaurant that DoorDash did not offer so I went to GrubHub and that turned into a complete disaster. Canceled order. I know the owner of Eli’s Jerusalem Grill / DOORDASH!!!!

Just like Amazon and Whole Foods…

Just like Amazon and Whole Foods deliveries, GrubHub has gone into the toilet. My last three orders were either wrong or over an hour past the original delivery time. Get out of Amazon prime, Whole Foods deliveries and GrubHub. It's not worth your money or the stress. When they delay your order by an hour they tell you they cannot give you a refund because the restaurant has already started preparing your order. So the food sits there for an hour before it is brought to you and is Stone Cold when you receive it.

GRUB HUB DRIVER UNTRUSTWORTHY- WHAT A THIEF

I do not use delivery service often and with current delivery issues, will probably stop using the delivery service altogether. Ordered mexican delivery from Arriba Taqueria in St. Joseph, MI. Taco dinner and 2 tamales ordered. Sat down and 2 tamales were not in the bag. Restaurant CCT footage confirms the foil wrapped tamales were added to the bag in the restaurant. Bag was left on my front porch chair in a secure knot. I am guessing the Grub Hub driver was hungry as no other explanation is plausible. Theft is theft is theft. Sad and pathetic. So people ordering food delivery service in and around the St. Joseph, MI area, I would suggest using another food service delivery company other than GRUB HUB. Through a pathetic chat AI, my tamales were refunded but the dinner was ruined d/t lack of food.

GrubHub - MoneyGrubbing Company

I ordered a whopper and a medium fries. the total was $20.25. Pricey for just that, but when my order arrived there was no whopper and a small order of cold fries. The food was late and the order wasn't right. I was told there was no whopper on the order,  then they charged me $20.25 for a small order of cold fries. The AI agent was useless and didn't help, just stalls for time. Customer care isn't any better. They offered $5 off my next grubhub order. Like I would order from them ever again. What a lousy business they are. I'm using DoorDash from now on.

I ordered two days in a row and both times the dasher never delivered my order or called me for the code. I looked at all my entrances the minute it was suppose to be "delivered ". To see the " proof pic" was a picture of the inside of their car window. Called customer support and chatted with an agent. No help what so ever. wanted to give me a $5 credit. Ridiculous!!

GrubHub doesn't care

Ordered from a restaurant thatbused grubhub for delivery. My meal wasn't delivered even though the driver reported it delivered. Unable to get driver to respond to inquiries. When I spoke with GrubHub, they refused to take responsibility and told me they only help if you order through their app. Totally unacceptable.

If I could give -5 stars to this joke…

If I could give -5 stars to this joke of a service, that's a good start.
I ordered food on the 12th of April, 2.5 hours later I'm e-mailed saying grub has cancelled the order. Same day I receive an e-mail stating a refund was sent.
I get more e-mails after complaints of where is my money. Telling me to contact my bank. Then another telling me to contact the restaurant for my refund. I copy and paste my bank statement portion showing the money is withdrawn by grub and grub needs to refund not the restaurant. Then I'm told now it can take up to 15 days for refund to go through. From 5 days to 15 days lol. Today is day 16. Never again will I use the useless POS service ever, and will get the word out. Class action is sounding good seeing all these 1 star reviews.

First purchase on a $60 order with $10+ change tip on top and the driver sends a photo of the street and I get a text saying your order was here early! Of course it was they just took a photo of the street called it delivered and now I have to wait 5-7 days to get my money back? Fawk this service AND unnecessary

Grubhub was nervewracking

Grubhub was not great. I tried to order food and I couldn't get the completion for what reason error message and no feedback so I went to Door dash and had no issue. I had used them previously and had name/ address problem. I edited and still barely got my product but not now.?
