Sounds about right for a non fast food pizza.

It's worth the extra cost, but i'd get it delivered directly by the pizzaria instead of using an app that adds on a ton of extra fees like that.

$15 / $40, or 37.5% of the cost, is because you used DoorDash, whose entire business model is based on you paying for convenience.

look for perks and coupons

most places around me have 50% 25% for orders, BOGO, shit like that to offset those fees.

otherwise just do pickup

Sidenote if anyone is looking for the least worst delivery service to use, I recommend checking if EatStreet is in your area. They work directly with restaurants (so they dont add restaurants to their service without permission) and their drivers are employees with benefits

They are. Delivery fees are up the ass and they still pocket most of that shit expecting you to also tip the actual delivery person. So it's a 2 for 2 scam service.

Delivery is getting the car to the house. Service is walking it to the door, best I can figure. I'd be like "how about you keep the $2.56 and just have my guy honk when he gets here" lol

Id assume the delivery fee is for door dash and the tip is for the driver. Which makes the service fee bullshit

Did restaurants do away with hired delivery drivers and only deliver through Doordash now?

Service fee is for DoorDash creating the platform, delivery fee is for DoorDash hiring the drivers, and tip is for the driver directly. Yes, it's bullshit.

That's why I pretty rarely do delivery, but yeah usually just getting it delivered directly from the restaurant isn't going to cost *that* much, the are going overboard there.

I use DoorDash for other things (like a sitdown restaurant that has free delivery, then I'm basically just tipping the driver instead of a waitress and the cost isn't crazy overboard), but Pizza is most often a bad deal.

Just buy frozen pizza at the grocery por dios

The Screamin Sicilian brand is seriously better than all of the garbage bigger name pizza places imo. I never get anything from Dominos/PapaJohns/PH unless I'm getting a large amount of pizza to entertain a large crowd. I have no issue with paying ~$18 for a really damn good pizza that will still be awesome when I reheat it in the oven or the air fryer.

Probably more because they Mark up the food too on those apps

That's usually how most Ma and Pa type of shops price their XL pizzas... well in LA at least. If you want cheap pizza, that's where the "fast food" pizza joints come in like Little Ceasars and Pizza Hut.

No that would be Papa John's that taste like cardboard.

Domino's has the burnt crust taste.

Pizza Hut just has overpriced pizza.

seems about right. they're almost as good as restaurant or local place.
typically aim for 3.50$ when on sale to get one. sometimes they have BOGO with coupon.

2$ each at best for a big pizza.
