Deeper insights
The report also revealed some deeper insights into consumers’ ordering habits. Brits have become more adventurous with the type of food they order at home with 33% of the UK’s top 30 list made up of an eclectic mix of cuisines from around the world, including British, Mexican, Indian, Jamaican, Hawaiian and more.
Research commissioned by Deliveroo found that over half of Brits (52%) have tried more than three new dishes or cuisines for the first time in the last 12 months.
In the capital, sandwiches are out in favour of healthier ‘build your own bowl’ dishes.

Research from Deliveroo backs up the trend with data revealing that bowl food such as Poké, salad or burrito bowls (51%) were more likely to be ordered by Brits for a takeaway lunch than the humble sandwich (37%).
