How to Use Google Delivery to Order In From Local Restaurants

Thanks to partnerships with food delivery companies like DoorDash, Postmates, Slice, ChowNow, GrubHub, and Delivery.com, you can now place orders through Google search, Maps, and the Assistant. All without using branded food delivery apps.

How Ordering With Google Delivery Works

If you're searching online for food and the restaurant you're looking for uses a food delivery service, you'll see an Order Online button in Google search results or Google Maps. That means you can place your delivery order through Google Delivery and you don't need an account with any of the delivery services to use to use those services. Place your order using your Google account.

Menus are displayed in the apps, where you'll also see the minimum order amount and respective delivery fees, and the ordering process is much like the one in the branded delivery apps. You'll have options available to enter promo and coupon codes or charge the meal to your credit card (or Google Pay).

Mobile users can also use the Google Assistant to place orders or reorders by voice. The Assistant will take you part of the way through the ordering process, but at a certain point, you'll have to pick up your device to make your choices by tapping the screen.

If you have not set up a delivery address or payment information in your Google Account, you'll be prompted to do so at the appropriate time during your order.
