OpenTable released new survey findings highlighting delivery habits and revealing a growing appetite for convenience. In tandem, OpenTable also announced a new partnership with Postmates to bring even more delivery and pick-up options to diners on its iOS and Android apps.

According to a recent survey commissioned by OpenTable, Americans are starting to break up with their kitchens with 41 percent dining out at least once a week and nearly one third considering delivery to be a top alternative. Six out of 10 (62 percent) respondents choose to order delivery because they like eating in the comfort of their own home, with 59 percent sharing that it’s often due to feeling burned out after a long day. Still, 42 percent say they actually plate their delivery meals with real silverware and plates to closely replicate the restaurant dining experience. For additional survey data on what Americans are getting delivered, where and how they are eating it and more, please visit the OpenTable blog.

“Since launching delivery options in July, we continue to hear how comfort and convenience are sometimes the priority for our diners along with top-notch, restaurant quality meals,” says Joseph Essas, Chief Technology Officer at OpenTable. “Our goal is to make OpenTable the go-to app for all dining occasions, and expanding our delivery capabilities with Postmates is one way we’re addressing those priorities.”

Postmates serves more than 75 percent of U.S. households and joins Caviar, Grubhub and Uber Eats as the newest partner to offer delivery and pick-up options on OpenTable. Combined, these partners power delivery for nearly 10,000 restaurants in North America on the OpenTable app. In addition, the OpenTable iOS app now shows estimated delivery times for each provider, giving diners an even more comprehensive look at their dining options.

“Postmates’ mission is to enable anyone to have anything delivered on-demand,” says Vivek Patel, Postmates COO. “Through this partnership, we’re excited to bring this mission to OpenTable’s network of diners and bring new customers to the thousands of restaurants on our platform that are found on OpenTable.”
