As long as they are completely up front about being a courier, and they are doing something to insure food safety, and they deal with the establishment as any other customer, I am sure some people would use the service.
People did it with TaskRabbit, and one could get more than food done that way.
The resturaunt charges xx.xx
You are paying service yy.yy
For a total of zz.zz
Personally, I won't. Unless I talk with the restuarant, I have no idea about availability, time to prepare, etc...
And frankly, I can get my food. I know what it costs for someone to do that and not be way underpaid, and would rather not see people underpaid.
And let's be honest: they will do everything they can to capture traffic, and will end up handling deals that would have gone to the resturaunt and will then leverage all of that. Hell, I would!
So, no. Not interested. Perfectly happy to support my locals directly.
