Uber uses its fleet to deliver food with new 'UberFresh' service


Like Uber but instead of needing to go somewhere, you want to eat lunch? UberFresh is perfect for you. Oh wait, do you also live in Santa Monica, CA? Because then it's actually perfect for you. The service starts today, and, as advertised, you'll swipe to the "UberFresh" section of your Uber app and a driver will bring you lunch. No, you don't get in the car and go somewhere; think of it like app-based food delivery. For the service's initial launch, your lunch options are limited to a single item per day (there's a menu on Uber's site right here). Admittedly, the options for the first week look pretty delicious, and the Yelp rankings for each restaurant back up Uber's choices as at least somewhat legit.


There's no update to download; you just have to live in Santa Monica and open up Uber. Head below the break for full instructions, care of Uber.



HOW TO ORDER:



1. Toggle to the uberFRESH option on the far right of the slider between 11:30 am and 2:30 pm from August 26th - September 5th. (Closed on weekends and Labor Day)



2. Set your delivery location within the Santa Monica coverage area and request away



3. Upon arrival, meet your driver outside to grab your delicious lunch
