Uber Eats launches in Portland on Thursday, bringing one more food delivery option to the city.
So far, Uber Eats says “dozens” of local food businesses have signed up with the service, including The Truffle Truck, a new Italian food truck that is also making its debut Thursday; Thai Esaan; Bill’s Pizza; Blue Rooster; and Gelato Fiasco. The company would not say exactly how many restaurants are participating.
The national food delivery service uses a separate smart phone app from its car-driving cousin, Uber. Diners on the Uber Eats app browse local restaurants that are on its site, order, then track delivery of the food to their home.
Like all food delivery services, there is a surcharge – Uber Eats calls it a “booking fee” – added to the bill. In Portland, that fee will be $4.99 per order.
Uber Eats is available in more than 140 cities in North America, Portland now among them.
