Facebook launches U.S. food order and delivery service

Facebook has officially launched a service through which its users in the United States can order food for take-away or delivery directly through its app or website.

Facebook said it has partnered with restaurants like Chipotle Mexican Grill, Jack in the Box, Five Guys, Papa John’s, Wingstop, Panera, TGI Friday’s, Denny’s, El Pollo Loco, and Jimmy John’s.

It has also signed on food ordering services such as EatStreet, Delivery.com, DoorDash, Olo, ChowNow, Zuppler and Slice.

Users will have to go to the “order food” section on Facebook’s “explore” menu, which will show them a list of participating restaurants in the vicinity through which they can place their order. The service will be available on the web, iOS and Android.

A year back, the company has said its U.S. users would be able to order food through a restaurants’ Facebook page. Facebook’s shares were up nearly 1% in early trading on Friday while shares of food order and delivery service GrubHub dropped nearly 3%.
