What moments we mark with a takeaway as award voting opens

Just Eat has announced voting is now open for its Just Eat Restaurant Awards, back for a seventh year. Formerly the British Takeaway Awards, they aim to champion the nation’s most-loved restaurants and the people who make them a success.

The launch comes as new research by Just Eat reveals takeaway Brits mark their happiest moments with a takeaway. Birthdays (46%), anniversaries (24%), moving home (18%) and early finishes from work (15%) all rank as some of the UK’s top milestone moments we celebrate with our favourite dishes. In fact, almost half (47%) of Brits claim their most special milestones wouldn’t be the same without a celebratory takeaway meal from their favourite restaurant and (47%) of Brits claim their most special milestones wouldn’t be the same without a celebratory takeaway meal from their favourite restaurant.
