Features & Capabilities

ChowNow isn’t your typical ordering app. We don’t believe in crazy-high commissions for independent restaurants or inflated menu prices for customers. You can still order delivery or takeout from top local spots, with transparent pricing and fair terms that support small businesses.

Explore nearby restaurants, filter by cuisine, and see real-time availability and order tracking. Pay quickly with Apple Pay or save your card for fast checkout, and enjoy 24/7 human support via chat, SMS, phone, or email. ChowNow serves many U.S. cities, helping you find your next favorite meal—from pizza and pasta to sushi, burgers, and more.

User Reviews

Reviewers largely criticize ChowNow for expensive and opaque fees, frequent ordering issues, and unreliable app performance. Many report orders not arriving or wrong deliveries, refunds being slow or denied, and subpar customer support. Some positives note an easy-to-use interface and potential benefits to local restaurants. Privacy concerns about driver contact information are also raised. Overall, while navigation may be simple, reliability and value appear inconsistent with notable friction in support and refunds.

Pros

Easy to use / intuitive interface.
Claims to save money for local restaurants.
Appeals to busy users due to straightforward ordering.

Cons

High delivery fees and multiple extra charges, often higher than competitors.
Frequent order failures: orders not delivered or wrong, refunds denied or delayed.
App reliability issues: bugs, unresponsive screens, orders disappearing, payment method problems.
Poor customer service: slow, robotic, limited resolution to issues.
Privacy and safety concerns: sharing personal information with drivers and contactability.

Recent reviews

It works exactly as I expected and is very reliable and the prices are good and I’m glad I’m not eating fast food anymore and instead eating actually prepared food it’s really good.

1 star. ChowNow’s delivery service is extremely frustrating. They use Uber to deliver the food, but when an order is marked as delivered and never actually arrives, there is seemingly no accountability. There is no proof of delivery, they don’t provide a way to contact the driver, and ChowNow doesn’t appear to make any effort to contact the driver either. They also don’t record or retain the order details in a way that helps resolve the issue. Once the order is marked “delivered,” you’re basically left with no recourse, even when you never received your food. For a service that charges customers for food and delivery, there should be a clear process for investigating missing orders and holding delivery partners accountable. I would not recommend using ChowNow until they improve their delivery support and customer protection.
