Weird one year later bump ...
I don’t order carry out from Waitr besides the one time a long time ago that I did it for Mr Gatti of all things
I have no idea how to reply to a question about something from a year ago, friend. I barely remember last month.

I order Burgersmith, Ichiban (Gonzales), and Geisha (P-Ville) and the Waitr prices are a little higher.

The bump was the post above me- I didn’t pay any attention to the date stamps
But looking back, the actual bump was a strange one, too

Note - if you use Waitr for carry out orders, don’t tip. It goes to Waitr, not the the restaurant employee if that was who you were trying to tip.
It goes to the restaurant.

Current or former employee?

Neither of the aforementioned. I used WAITR in NC on a business trip and noticed the pricing discrepancies between the restaurant menus posted online vs. pricing on the App.

Right, it's lagniappe, you're not counting on it to survive, so why not nullify that 15% rake by raising the price slightly? On top of the $1200 you paid on the front end to get the service. I dont need Waitr orders, so if someone thinks it's too much, oh well.
I raised prices 15%, havent heard any blowback from the customer, and Waitr business is increasing every week fwiw
I believe in the WAITR or UBER contract it states you have to match instore pricing with pricing on their platform.
edit.. just pulled the language from our contract with UBEREATS..
quote:
4. GENERAL. You are responsible for determining and setting the retail price (“Retail Price”) for each Meal to be made available via the Uber Platform, but you agree that you will not set a Retail Price higher than the amount you are charging for similar meals in-restaurant or through any comparable technology platform for food delivery or logistics services (including, but not limited to, GrubHub, Caviar, etc.).
WAITR is a 15% fee, UBER is a 30% fee. WAITR also charges 1500 implementation and a $700 maintenance fee every two years.
Restaurants definitely get screwed on the deal. They make very little to no money on it. There is a reason WAITR was recently bought out for $308 million. They are killing restaurants AND customers on pricing.
I will say that if you own a restaurant on here...you need to have your own online ordering system and not use WAITR's. Make your customer use your own carry out platform. You can tell WAITR/UBER to shove it and restrict them to delivery only.

I can't say enough how much I hate that the tip has to be given before the service is rendered
UberEats gets this right. It works like Uber. The driver gets their normal cut of the Uber fee and you tip anything more after delivery.

I don't know shite about waitr but I will say that I have noticed a direct correlation between giving a large tip and getting your food super quick.

Now you’re making up names and trying so hard to find out a posters identity on an anonymous messaging board, and failing oh so miserably you delusion frick. So this is how you spend your days, holding down the basement in your Mom’s house making up Alt accounts on TD’ings you piece of shite loser
You truly are the bottom of the barrel.
