Editorial summary — norms vary by region within each country and shift over time. Read the local mood.
DoorDash
DoorDash has the deepest US catalog, especially outside major metros; Uber Eats strong in big cities.
Editorial pick based on which app actually has restaurants AND working couriers in this city. Coverage shifts — apps pull out of markets all the time.
Uber
Uber and Lyft both deep in every US metro and most secondary cities — pricing is comparable; switch between them when one surges. Curb covers licensed taxis in NYC and a handful of other cities.
Editorial pick based on coverage, foreign-card UX, and how reliably drivers actually accept trips. Markets shift — apps pull out of countries and surge pricing varies wildly.
