Ever since COVID that crap just got way too expensive. Back in 2016-2018 used to be Deliveroo and UberEats would sometimes straight up have better deals than just going to the place, there was no service or any other charges and delivery fees were £1.99 for most places, when you consider Europe has no tipping it was decent and living off McDonalds alone was often parity in price to cooking nice food yourself. Never been on a vacation so have no idea what that's like but it's a nice time/money tradeoff.

The only better value was dominos/papajohns where £10 could get you a large pizza, I think in the US those are supposed to be bad according to some people, but here they're actually some of the best most consistent comfort food money can buy.

Now it feels like you can't even get a burrito for less than £20 at a place it costs £12 and it takes way longer as well and the drivers are all shitty, I've even seen some people here tipping just to make sure their food actually comes. Crazy.
