The Fees Behind the Feed

Grubhub is one of the original online food-ordering services and later joined forces with Seamless. Like other marketplaces, it typically charges restaurants a commission and adds fees to the customer's bill as well. Put those together and a big slice of your order never reaches the kitchen.
