Waiter.com
Waiter.com, also formerly known as World Wide Waiter,[1] is an online restaurant delivery service that went online in early December 1995.[2] It was founded by two Stanford University Business School graduates Craig Cohen and Michael Adelberg.[1] Although Waiter.com does service residential areas and takeout orders, its main focus is delivering for corporate business mealtime orders and catered meals.[3] Waiter.com primarily operates in California, in the Bay Area. HistoryWaiter.com is considered the first online restaurant delivery service online;[4][5] it pioneered the concept of online restaurant ordering in 1995 when it offered meal options from 60 Silicon Valley partner restaurants, expanding to over 1,300 restaurants in 2017.[6][unreliable source?] The first office was located in Los Altos,[7] but is now situated in Sunnyvale, California.[8] Waiter.com serves multiple locations throughout the United States, including major cities like San Francisco, Dallas, Raleigh/Durham, Seattle, Austin, and Los Angeles.[9] In January 2020, Waiter.com expanded its service to Portland, Oregon through its acquisition of local delivery company Portland Pedal Power.[10] References
