About Us

Founded in 2004, GrubHub is the number one place on the interwebs to find out who delivers to you and allows you to order food online. The two founders, Matt Maloney and Mike Evans, were two software engineers in Chicago who found themselves working late one night, lamenting the lack of web sites that would tell them every restaurant they could order from.

They wrote the first business plan on a mustard-stained bar napkin over cold drinks, and ever since then, we’ve been a company whose sole vision is to be the best destination for ordering food online. We’ve grown enormously over the past few years from just two to almost 50 employees, secured two rounds of funding from venture capital firms and several angel investors, and have expanded service to over thirteen cities— and counting…

We have some amazing plans in store for the next year and hope you’ll dig them as much as we do.

Cheers,
GrubHub
