The ultimate guide to Gainesville food delivery

Hello there, your bed. You seem super cozy today. It would truly be horrible if something were to cause you to lose the person you are so graciously hosting, especially for something as simple as a bite to eat.

So, what’s there to do? Listen, bed, you tell your human that they shouldn’t fear. They can watch House of Cards until the morning light without moving from their bed because in 30 minutes to an hour – food will be in his or her lap.

But not all places that offer food delivery are alike. Do you want it fast and quick with Jimmy John’s or do you want to jump into the unknown of a delicious shrimp scampi? The choice is yours. Just follow this guide.

If you’re craving:

Pasta – ChompMenus has Leonardo’s by the Slice on their website and you can get fettuccine alfredo, baked ziti or pasta marinara for under $7. Not your cup of tea? It also has Gumby’s, which has every pasta you could ever dream up from bacon cheeseburger pasta to the classic spaghetti and meatballs.

Pizza – This isn’t hard. Order from Domino’s. I have the iPhone app. It’s incredible and it may or may not be housed in my “productivity” folder. I recently discovered the six-cheese Wisconsin blend thin crust pizza. I died and went to cheese heaven.

Burgers – There’s truly no substitute for the big, tasty burgers from Relish. Relish can be found on 2DollarDelivery and will bring you nom-worthy goodness within about an hour for the small up-charge of $2 (plus their gas surcharge of $.50).

Sandwiches – Jimmy John’s delivery rate is just so unparalleled that I have no idea why you would ever leave the house again. I’ve timed them before and the record is SIX minutes. It’s so crazy fast, I am convinced they have invented teleportation and are keeping it hidden to have an edge on the market. And their sandwiches are so freaking cheap I wouldn’t bother with going to another outside source.

Chinese/Thai – GainesvilleFoodMenus has the best selection of Asian fusion. From China King to Tatu, you’ll get the best in pad thai and general tso’s chicken lovin.

Sushi – Nothing beats the three rolls for $10 deal at Sushi-2-Go and in addition to that they will deliver that monster pile of sushi to your home, dorm or apartment. Three rolls don’t sound like that much, but you can literally swim in that much sushi. The rolls come pretty fast as well. If you’re not sold yet, the sushi with faces they use on their website and in store are the most adorable creatures I’ve ever seen. They make you want to hang out with sushi.

Latin – Everyone’s new favorite burrito place, Burrito Famous!, is officially on the website 2DollarDelivery about an hour’s time, you can start crying tears of Mexican joy, because a delicious burrito will be at your fingertips. The website also offers Mi Apa for delivery. The site also offers Asian, Tropical Smoothie and even KFC, but I sense it now has a knack for bringing tortilla goodness into one student’s life one burrito at a time.
