What Foodpanda is
Foodpanda is a food-delivery app that's a major player across much of Asia, including Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, the Philippines, Pakistan, and Bangladesh; it shut down in Thailand in May 2025. Travelers use it to order from local restaurants to a hotel or apartment, often discovering neighborhood spots they'd otherwise miss. The app handles ordering, payment, and live courier tracking in one place.
What it does for travelers
- ✓Restaurant browsing with menus, photos, and ratings
- ✓Live order tracking from the restaurant to your door
- ✓Card and digital-wallet payment, plus cash on delivery in some markets
- ✓Grocery and convenience delivery in addition to restaurant food in many cities
- ✓Scheduled orders and saved delivery addresses
Good to know
- Availability is regional, concentrated in Asian markets; it isn't a global service.
- An account and a delivery address are required; some areas accept cash on delivery while others need a card.
- Delivery fees and minimum orders vary by city and distance.
- A data connection is needed to order and track, and you'll need a reachable phone number for the courier.
Travel tips
- Enter your exact hotel or apartment address with the unit and a landmark note, since couriers may struggle with unfamiliar buildings.
- Keep your phone reachable so the rider can call you on arrival, especially at hotels with multiple entrances.
- Check whether your area allows cash on delivery if your foreign card is declined at checkout.
- Order during normal meal hours for the widest restaurant selection, as availability thins late at night.
When to reach for it
Use Foodpanda when traveling in its strong Asian markets and you want food or groceries delivered to your accommodation rather than going out.
