Uber Eats’ 2024 Cravings Report offers a snapshot of what people were ordering through the platform in the United States. The list is not a ranking of every takeout order in America, but it does show which foods rose to the top on Uber Eats. The nine highest-ranked items are mostly familiar choices, from fries and nuggets to pizza and burgers, while the burrito bowl took the number-one spot.
Pepperoni Pizza
Pepperoni pizza came in ninth on Uber Eats’ list of the most-ordered items. Pizza may have endless topping combinations, but this familiar version still made the platform’s top 10. It also appeared elsewhere in the report, where Uber highlighted pepperoni pizza with anchovies as one of its more unusual food combinations.
Boneless Wings
Boneless wings ranked eighth. Uber did not say whether customers preferred them to traditional bone-in wings, so the ranking is best read on its own: boneless wings were popular enough to place ahead of several other frequently ordered foods on the platform.
Mac and Cheese
Mac and cheese took seventh place. The report does not break down who ordered it or how they customized it, but its position puts the classic comfort dish firmly among Uber Eats’ most-ordered items in the United States.
Cheeseburger
The cheeseburger ranked sixth. It landed just outside the top five and ahead of mac and cheese, boneless wings, and pepperoni pizza. Uber’s report does not explain why customers chose it so often, but its placement shows that the familiar burger was a popular delivery order on the platform.
Waffle Fries
Waffle fries reached fifth place, giving fries two spots in the top five. They did not outrank standard French fries, but they still finished ahead of cheeseburgers and every item below them on Uber’s ranking.
Chicken Sandwich
The chicken sandwich landed at number four. Uber did not specify a particular restaurant, preparation, or style, so the safest takeaway is simply that chicken sandwiches as a category were among the platform’s most frequently ordered foods.
Chicken Nuggets
Chicken nuggets came in third. The report does not provide an age breakdown for customers, so it cannot tell us whether adults, children, or families drove that result. What it does show is that nuggets finished ahead of every item except French fries and burrito bowls.
French Fries
French fries took second place overall. They also showed up in another part of Uber’s report: a medium French fry was the platform’s number-one late-night order during the period Uber discussed. That gives fries a strong showing in the report beyond their second-place finish on the main list.
Burrito Bowl
The burrito bowl took the top spot in Uber Eats’ 2024 ranking of most-ordered items. Uber also highlighted how often customers used customization features across the platform, though the report did not say customization caused burrito bowls to rank first. The result still puts this flexible meal ahead of every other food on the list.
The Bottom Line
Uber Eats’ ranking is more specific than a nationwide takeout survey, but it still offers a useful look at what customers ordered through the delivery platform. Familiar foods filled most of the list, while the burrito bowl finished first.
