Deliveroo reveals London's most ordered meals of 2019
Deliveroo has become a bit of a saviour for those of us lucky enough to live within its areas of service.
It quickly provides us with dinner for long working days, hangover cures and lunch-time treats and the amount of options means it can cater for even the fussiest of friends.
Now, Deliveroo has revealed the top 10 dishes that Londoners have ordered over the course of the year - as well as where they’ve come from.
If you got a cheeseburger from Clapham Five Guys in 2019, you’re certainly not alone. It took the crown as the most ordered dish of the year.

In second place was the Grilled Harissa Chicken from Farmer J in Leadenhall Street, a popular lunch-time dish. The third most popular dish to be delivered was the Chicken Milanese from Simple Health Kitchen on Baker Street - another lunchtime top pick.
Deliveroo also tallied up the most ordered food from anywhere in the world, with the Poké Signature Super Protéiné from Pokawa in Paris taking the top spot.
But, in the world’s second place was London’s first-place entry from Five Guys - the ever-popular cheeseburger.
The humble cheeseburger is clearly a very popular choice amongst Clapham residents.
In fact, there was quite a pattern on both of the top 10 lists, with burgers, Poké bowls and burritos dominating the lists. These meals, which are typically enjoyed at lunchtime, might go some way towards showcasing the UK’s workplace eating habits.
After all, one in two London-based office workers see sunlight for a maximum of 30 minutes per day in the winter. By ordering Deliveroo in, they might see it even less.
