7 Toronto Restaurants Who Do Delivery Themselves & Make It Super Easy To Support Local

Time to skip SkipTheDishes and directly send your love to local restaurants.
Staff Writer

A stay-at-home order doesn't mean you can't eat well — in fact, now is really the time to hit up Toronto restaurants that deliver and treat yourself.

But apps like DoorDash or UberEats can charge restaurants extra fees for their services, which means less money going to the local businesses who really need it.

Thankfully, there are some places that will deliver themselves and cut out the middle man.

You can find a whole bunch on Not-UberEats.com, a new site that lists Toronto restaurants that do their own delivery.
