GrubHub Launches Revamped Android App.

CHICAGO -- GrubHub, a web and mobile service that connects diners to restaurants and simplifies online ordering for delivery and pickup, announced the release of its revamped Android app today. Rebuilt from the ground up, the GrubHub Android app allows diners to order food on the go from over 5,000 restaurants in 13 cities, with more cities continuing to be added.

"Not too long ago, finding and ordering anything more exotic than pizza or Chinese was difficult, to say the least," said Mike Evans, GrubHub co-founder and COO. "It's a lot easier these days thanks to more efficient mobile food apps. Between GrubHub's new Android app and our iPhone app, diners can easily order food from home, work or whatever local watering hole they are at."

The new app lets diners use their phone's GPS capabilities to scan their current location for all the restaurants delivering to exactly where they are. They can also narrow their search by cuisine or search for a specific restaurant or menu item. The app also features thousands of reviews and ratings to help the diner make an informed decision. And once they've decided what they are hungry for and placed an order, GrubHub's Android app will save the address, payment info and order details to make ordering again even easier than the first time.

"We project orders through the GrubHub apps to comprise 25 percent of our sales by the end of 2011," said Evans. "And with Android handsets making up the fastest growing segment of the smartphone market, we knew we had to deliver an amazing experience through this app to reach that goal."

The app is free to download from the Android Market. It is also free for diners to order online at GrubHub.com.

About GrubHub

Visitors to the site type in their address on GrubHub.com, and the page will display every local restaurant that delivers to them, with the restaurants' menus, hours for delivery, available coupons and reviews. The rapidly growing company works with over 4,000 restaurants for online ordering and shows menus from over 14,000 restaurants in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Denver, Philadelphia, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Boulder, Denver, Washington D.C. and Oakland.
