Takeaway food on your schedule

Some days are unpredictable. You’ve got a million things to do and no time to do them in. On these days, you might not want to sit in and wait for food delivery at home.

If you’re already in the neighbourhood of your go-to Indian takeaway, why not order on the Bolt Food app and pick up your meal directly? You’ll be back home with a tasty bag of food quicker than you can say poppadom!

Get some rays

Whether it’s producing vitamin D or releasing serotonin, sunlight is a proven mood booster. And if it’s winter, then getting some natural daylight (as opposed to being stuck inside all day) is good for both mind and body.

To capitalise on these benefits, walk to your local restaurant when you next want to order takeaway food. If you’re working at home, this acts as the perfect excuse to stretch your legs, get some sunshine and top up those vitamin D levels.

Skip the queues

Picture the scene
 You head to your usual lunch spot, but instead of standing in the 15-minute queue, you glide past other customers and collect your takeaway meal immediately.

How? Bolt Food pickup, of course.

With this option, you can order ahead and cut your usual wait time. So whether it’s lunch with co-workers or dinner with friends, select Bolt Food pickup to beat the peak hour rush (and reduce your hunger faster!).

Get some steps

What better excuse for a walk than to know that there’s some takeaway food at the end?

A brisk walk is good for health and concentration, so use Bolt Food pickup as a reason to lace up your shoes and take a stroll. Or maybe you’ve got a dog that would appreciate the extra fresh air.

And if that’s not enough of an incentive, then remember that it might just get you to the top of your friends’ Fitbit step challenge. Top of the leaderboard and with your favourite food in hand — what could be better?

Save time

Whether it’s delivery or pickup, Bolt Food is here to offer you fast and affordable takeaway. If you’re already out and about, then Bolt Food pickup might be the better option to suit your lifestyle.

By picking up a takeaway on your way home or on the way to the office, you’re saving time and getting things ticked off your to-do list. That means more time spent on the important things — like eating your meal in peace!
