You Can Now Order Food Directly Through Facebook: Here’s How

Ordering food is a serious business for creative companies these days. Finding new methods to catch users’ attention, is really important, and Facebook is the newest member of the trend.

Facebook has officially announced that users can order their favourite meals from the restaurants without leaving the social network. In the Facebook app’s menu area, users can find a hamburger-styled light blue “Order Food” icon or on the website, a more real-looking hamburger icon.

According to Techcruch, the feature is rolling out to selected users in the US on the Facebook app and desktop. So if you are in the US, you can now start placing orders for your favourite foods on Facebook without leaving the app. Before now, it was only possible to order foods through some restaurants page on Facebook such as whole foods Facebook, Facebook ordering app,  local pizzerias, Gloria Foods etc.

The new Facebook Food ordering system is a result of a continued partnership between Facebook and online Food ordering services, delivery.com and Slice.
