"We're committed to finding new ways to connect our diners with

restaurant to skip the line, or quickly reordering from one of
their favorites, we're always gathering feedback and using insights
from our diners to introduce features that make their lives
easier."
Methodology:
Grubhub's talented team of data analysts looked at usage of the
Express Reorder, Preorder and Pickup features of the Grubhub
platform from July 2016 to
July 2017. The superlative-style
rankings of cities were determined by comparing each city's orders
to those of Grubhub diners across the nation. The most popular dish
per feature was determined by orders placed using that feature in a
particular city versus a standard (not using the feature) order
placed in the same city. Male versus female order habits were
determined by analyzing the order data of males in comparison to
females on the Grubhub platform.
