They didn’t bother making an English version of the website.
You can only vote among a small preselected group of restaurants in each category, contrary to what it says in the article.
it doesnt make sense why they dont have an english version but great idea hope it picks up
like everything else not catered with expats in mind, thanks but no thanks deliveroo
😍😍
lol
I have stopped using Deliveroo and even Talabat from a few months ago. I do understand the situation previously related to shortage of staff and other operational issues and the headaches and anguish of late deliveries, orders being canceled et al, I now prefer to pre-order from the restaurants itself and pick them up personally or then dine in!
Yeah I pick up orders most times as well. Saves on delivery cost; your food will be hot; it may be cheaper; and directly supports the restaurant
A while ago, all my bank cards (NBK) stopped working with deliveroo. So I stopped using deliveroo.
On another note, is Carriage still operational? Is there any difference between them and talabat of they were acquired?
I think Carriage still works – took Kuwait by storm with its live tracking and raising the market delivery rate to KWD 1. No difference between them and Talabat after their acquisition
It looks like this voting system is only for Arabs. They did not bother to create an English version.
Yet, the vote button is in English.
Bahahahahahaha
Why so many people complaining that it is in Arabic. Remember that Kuwait is predominantly an Arabic speaking country and the percentage of people who speak proper English is dwindling everyday so …. Google translate everyone.
Ok. @Mark
المشاركات القادمة بالعربية من فضلك.
do you work in marketing? you have no idea what you are talking about, In a corporate view this is a campaign for engagement with the users and to increase its userbase, by making the vote form in arabic only they are clearing beating the purpose of this campaign ( hire me @deliveroo)
to support my argument –
“Expatriates account for about 70% of Kuwait’s population, including 1.1 million Arab expatriates and 1.4 million Asian expatriates. The Kuwait government rarely grants citizenship to foreigners to maintain status quo. Kuwait’s population is difficult to estimate given the number of non-nationals, and preliminary results of the 2011 census showed the population at 3.1 million, including 1.1 million citizens and 2.0 million non-nationals.”

I completely agree with you Professional Food Appreciator.
The country’s official language is Arabic but the majority of its residents (including its Arab citizens and residents) speak English hence English is the common language.
Where the subtitles at Deliveroo?
Waste candidates
I was wondering why everyone is complaining about Arabic-only when I saw the entire website and even voted assuming it is an English website.
Just realized that Google automatically translated the page for me.
how did you do that out of curiosity? a chrome plugin?
Chrome suggests that when you visit a non-English website. If you’re on Firefox, you can use this

ah i think i have that option turned off
They have Iranian restaurants under “Arabic food’. Is this like the Persian Gulf situation again?
lol you remember that! That was NOT a post I was expecting any controversy under

If the tables were turned and Arabs were called “Iranians”, they would most likely immediately correct the person.
Iranians and Turks are Middle Easterners, not Arabs.
