- Hello @~2026-17698-76, this is the talk page for the Wikipedia article Uber Eats, it's not the support page for Uber Eats. 🍅 fx (talk) 00:04, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

This article resembles very little what it is like to be an UberEATS driver, at least in Seattle. There is no set menu. Here you may order anything on the menu from a participating restaurant from which here are many, for one.chevyorange 14:47, 14 February 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chevyorange (talk • contribs)
Edit Request
[edit]| This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hi all - Ben here from the UberEATS team requesting a couple edits to this page:
1) Update the logo to its current version, seen here: https://uber.box.com/s/8jd6nfgb2swm25z1a72gk65ff4hgp112
2) Correct inaccuracy: "The service also features two to four “signature dishes” on a rotating, daily basis.[12]" - the Instant Delivery option on UberEATS was removed in October 2016. Source: http://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Uber-kills-ultrafast-Instant-option-for-9643207.php
Thanks, Ben

- Thank you for disclosing your conflict of interest. That's sincerely appreciated. I made your second edit. As to the first, my concern here is that the existing logo was freely licensed by UberEats. Under what license is the new logo released? Ideally, it, too, would be released under CC Attribution Share Alike 4.0 International or other similar open license. Looking at the new logo, it actually looks to me like it'd be public domain because there's no threshold of originality (it's just text), but I'm not an expert on copyright thresholds. --Yamla (talk) 16:03, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
Available locations
[edit]I suggest we remove the entire section, Available locations, from the article. This information is readily available on their website and doesn't significantly add to the article. It's accounting for roughly 40% of the vertical space of the article itself, minus references. It's also necessary to frequently update it, the information is almost never totally accurate, and the only source of the information is a primary source. However, I don't wish to make such a radical change without giving the option for people to argue against it, so here we are! --Yamla (talk) 14:00, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
Change/ Move Page Lede to Uber Eats
[edit]Since UberEATS is now officially spelt as Uber Eats since December 10th, 2017, can we also have the page name changed/ moved as well to reflect the above? You may refer to www.ubereats.com . Thanks!
Templated as COI and POV
[edit]The article was created by an editor banned for advertising and self-promotion. Many swaths of the original article exist untouched, some of which have no business being in an encyclopedia article. Half the refs are to the company website or basically (unsolicited) press releases (see if you can find the affiliate link in this source - archive.is). There is no mention whatsoever of criticism of the service, e.g. ... Daß Wölf 18:28, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
- I've done some editing to the article in order to make it sound less like an advertisement and more neutral, which should be a good start to rid the article of it's COI and NPOV issues. However, the article still needs to be expanded and should include a "criticism" section. Retroity (talk) 03:52, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
Delivered to wrong address again!!!!
[edit]The last two ordered I order, the Uber driver delivered to wrong house, and I’m not happy!!! Please credit out account for deliver and tip STAT!!! Cheryl Turner 142.116.20.35 (talk) 00:11, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- You are confused. This is an encyclopedia, not Uber Eats customer service. --Yamla (talk) 09:28, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Edit Request: Update Lead Paragraph to Reflect Expanded Platform Offerings
[edit]| This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works. |
- Disclosures
COI Disclosure: I have a Conflict of Interest which is that I am an Uber employee. As such, I am submitting this edit request on the Talk page.
- Rationale
- The existing intro describes Uber Eats as a food delivery service. However, the platform has significantly expanded into grocery, convenience, alcohol, and non-restaurant retail delivery globally.
- Proposed Change
- Current opening paragraph:
"Uber Eats is an American online food ordering and delivery platform launched by the ride-hailing company Uber in August 2014. It is one of the largest global food delivery services, competing with companies such as DoorDash, Grubhub, Deliveroo and Just Eat Takeaway.com."
- Proposed revision:
"Uber Eats is an online delivery platform launched by the ride-hailing company Uber in August 2014. Originally focused on restaurant food delivery, the platform has since expanded into grocery, convenience, alcohol, and retail delivery in markets around the world. It is one of the largest global delivery platforms, competing with companies such as DoorDash, Instacart, Grubhub, Rappi, Deliveroo and Just Eat Takeaway.com."
- Thank you to any volunteer editor willing to review and apply this update! 26foodie (talk) 17:26, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
