food delivery driver

Brings restaurant orders

A food delivery driver transports prepared meals from restaurants to customers, typically working for app-based services like DoorDash, Uber Eats, or Grubhub.

The role emerged with smartphone technology enabling on-demand ordering.

Drivers use their own vehicles and are usually classified as independent contractors rather than employees: Our food delivery driver got lost twice.
