Whether you’re on your couch, at the work office, or at the dorm, get your grub delivered to you anywhere without having to talk to anyone. (Except to the driver to say thanks!)
Say hello to GrubHub, your new best foodie friend app that’ll show you the hot spots in the neighborhood, best spots for that late night craving, and learn your local favorites.
For the Creature of Habit:
Do you find yourself gravitating towards the same dishes whenever you go to a restaurant? On the GrubHub app, there is “Express Reorder” making it super simple to reorder your favorite meals with a few taps.
For the New Kid on the Block:
With GrubHub’s extensive network, you can easily see ratings and reviews for local spots so you can confidently make a decision if you want to spend your hard-earned money there like a pro.
For the Planner:
Know you’ll be stuck in the office a few days from now and want to have something to look forward to? You can preorder your favorite meal up to 4 days in advance!
For the “Are we there yet?” Adult:
In this case, you want to know where your food is at. Don’t worry, your order gets tracked in real-time so you can watch the little icon move towards you all you want!
GrubHub has all your dining needs and cravings covered no matter who or where you are. Best yet, you can get $7 off your very first order making you one smart cookie. (Might as well add a cookie to your order too!)

Let’s talk about food, baby
As someone that just LOVES food, Yelp has provided a way for me to find really cool spots to eat at in addition to avoiding the duds.
Don’t know what to do for lunch? Open up Yelp.
Looking for a Happy Hour nearby? Open up Yelp.
While I primarily use it for restaurant lookup, Yelp offers so much more to include all types of businesses like cafes, shopping, beauty, contractors, and more. Anywhere you encounter, it’s most likely on Yelp and there’s a rating for it made by real people.
Save money by going to trusted places
Before I choose to spend my money anywhere, I check if the business is on Yelp. Their rating and reviews will give you a better picture of what others have experienced. It’s not meant to be the final say, but if most people are leaving a 1-star rating (the lowest), then it’s your choice to avoid the place to save money or go in with known expectations.
If you don’t necessarily care about reading other people’s reviews and want to forge your own path that’s cool too. Yelp is still an amazing business directory when you need to find a place to eat, to do some work at, to shop, to work out etc.
Write reviews and be an Elite
If you want to help others make a decision about a business, you can also write reviews to contribute.
When you write enough solid reviews, you can become a Yelp Elite and you’ll know who’s who by the Elite icon badge next to a reviewer’s name. These reviews are considered to be more trustworthy by Yelp.
I know VERY well about the Elite system because I’ve been one for the past 8 years. There are amazing perks that come with being one!
You can attend/get:
- Events with free food & alcohol
- Free show/festival ticket giveaways
- Free theme park ticket giveaways
- Events with free beauty services
- Events with free movies
- Events with free fitness classes
- and more
My most memorable events have been all-you-can-eat sushi, free VIP tickets to Cirque Du Soleil, free VIP tickets to Knott’s Scary Farm, lots of free movies, and plenty of food tasting events.
If all this sounds good to you, just get started on using the Yelp app!
