What to know about Food Delivery in Ethiopia

Uber Eats does not operate in Ethiopia. App-based food delivery is mainly an Addis Ababa convenience rather than something visitors can expect nationwide.

Best Food Delivery apps in Ethiopia (2026)

beU Delivery

A leading Addis Ababa food-delivery app with broad restaurant selection and cash-on-delivery support.

Pro tip: Add a landmark and keep your phone reachable. Delivery times and support can be inconsistent, so retain cash and a backup meal option.

Deliver Addis

An established Addis-focused restaurant delivery service with app and web ordering and cash or supported card payment.

Pro tip: Confirm the delivery radius and final total before paying. Save the order confirmation and keep cash ready if a foreign card fails.

ZMall

An Addis delivery alternative for restaurants, groceries and shops, with live order tracking in supported areas.

Pro tip: Useful when beU lacks a restaurant or its map pin is poor. Compare the available selection, fees and delivery estimate at your address.

beU Delivery has the strongest current scale among the local options, while Deliver Addis and ZMall are useful alternatives when restaurant selection, fees or coverage differ at the exact address. ZMall also includes groceries and other shops. None is essential for most trips, and current store reviews and local discussions show enough complaints about delays, cancellations, location errors and refunds that a backup meal plan is sensible. Add the precise accommodation pin, building or hotel name, entrance instructions and a recognizable nearby landmark.

Couriers commonly call, so keep a reachable Ethiopian or roaming number and ask reception whether outside deliveries are allowed. Cash on delivery is the safest fallback even where card payment is offered. Deliver Addis has recently improved international card support, but a successful checkout should not be assumed until the order is confirmed. Review the complete price and delivery radius before paying, then take a screenshot of the order.

For allergies or dietary restrictions, contact the restaurant directly and use short, clear wording; an app note alone is not a safe confirmation. Outside Addis Ababa, use local restaurant contacts, accommodation staff or direct pickup rather than relying on these apps.
