Seven Places I Wish Had Home Delivery Service



Income tax refund season is here, meaning more folks will be dining out, at least for a short period of time. Delivery service has changed our dining habits, especially when gas has been at peak prices. Pizza and Chinese places have been delivering for years. I'm not sure why most other places will not deliver. Here are seven places that I think should offer delivery service.

1. Zaxbys

A special shout out to my lady friends LaSandra and Avella for inspiring this topic. They are Zaxby fiends and for good reason. This restaurant has delicious food, healthy Zalads, and always a good special shake. It would be awesome to have that delivered to your door.

2. Cookout

This is my new favorite fast food joint. You can get a full meal for $5, plus they have a variety of shakes, one for every day of the month, and half the next month. You can also skip that annoying drive thru.

3. Chick Fil-A

They have awesome food, especially the chicken sandwiches, and some of the best customer service you will find anywhere. I could only imagine their delivery service would be top notch. You cannot order on Sundays of course.

4. Kentucky Fried Chicken and Taco Bell

I combine these two because they are all owned by the same company that owns Pizza Hut, and Pizza Hut delivers. Taco Bell has a lot of cheap and sometimes tasty food, especially the Doritos Los Tacos. KFC always manages to stay relevant in the chicken game. You know you want 10 tacos and 11 herbs and spices in a giant bucket delivered to your door.

5. Waffle House

The ultimate late night spot would provide hash browns smothered and covered to those wanting a late night treat, but not willing to leave the house. Also, perhaps you had a house party and you're too drunk to drive there. Either way, Waffle House would further maximize their business if they would do deliveries.

6. The local Mexican restaurant

I'm actually surprised many Mexican restaurants do not deliver, especially since more people are embracing the cuisine, especially locally with Broncos and Santiago’s. Obviously you wouldn't be able to deliver margaritas. Dishes such as Tex Mex Nachos and Pollo Fundidos would somehow taste better with home delivery.

7. Subway

It's a good way to eat fresh and healthy. You would have to order at least two five dollar foot longs, and maybe some cookies for delivery to be made. However, it would be worth it. Sandwich trays could also be included in the package.

 

So what other places should offer home or workplace delivery service?

  1. My tummy is growling and my mouth is watering from this list of great restaurants on your delivery wish list.

    There is only one of the restaurants listed which has made its way across the great pond to The Netherlands, KFC, but even they don't have those delicious, fluffy biscuits we can get in the Carolina's.

    Can't wait for my next trip to the US and some great Southern food delivered or not. Give me a biscuit and a crispy, fried piece of Livermush with a side of Grits slathered in butter and I'm in hog heaven!
