Home delivery has exploded over the last two years with lockdowns seeing a huge increase in how many of us order takeaways, and how often we want them. McDonald's has announced a number of expansions of its McDelivery service - taking on new partners and redesigning its branches to make things quicker and more efficient.
But is it faster to get a delivery sent to your home, or is it worth jumping in the car and getting it yourself? MEN writer Emma Gill decided to find out for herself.
She said: "Having sent my order via Uber Eats, I set off at the exactly the same time, 6.45pm last Saturday, with my mission to order and collect the exact same items in store. By this point Uber was giving me an estimated delivery time of 20 to 30 minutes. With the restaurant being 1.6 miles from my house, around 10 minutes away, I was unsure whether I'd beat that or not.
