Hey Austin! Exciting news for those of you who live in the heart of downtown. If you’ve been craving your favorite food from local restaurants, you might just get it delivered by a robot! That’s right, Austin-based Avride has teamed up with Uber Eats to bring robotic food delivery to our enchanting city. How cool is that?
This innovative service rolled out just earlier this week and, guess what? Austin is the first city in the whole of America to get on board with it! Avride has plans to introduce hundreds more delivery robots by next year, and they’re already buzzing around the Mueller area. Now, these little helpers will zoom their way through downtown, delivering delicious meals right to your doorstep.
So, if you’re wandering in downtown Austin, listen up! These charming robots will be operating in a specific zone: from Cesar Chavez Street all the way north to 15th Street, and they’ll be cruising from Interstate 35 west to West Avenue. This means if you’re within this radius and you order through the Uber Eats app, you might just see a little bot at your doorstep.
Now, I know some of you might be wondering about tips. Well, Avride has got you covered here. Any tips you add won’t be charged when you’re receiving robot delivery! Isn’t that a nice little bonus?
Avride is not stopping at Austin. The company has their eyes set on expanding this futuristic service to Dallas and even all the way to Jersey City, New Jersey. Imagine seeing these little techy friends rolling around your neighborhood, delivering all your yummy cravings!
If you would prefer not to be notified about autonomous deliveries, you can easily tweak your settings in the browser. So, feel free to turn those notifications off anytime you like. No pressure here! Just choose what works best for you.
With technology advancing every day, Austin is proving to be a leader in adopting this cool, innovative delivery method. So, next time you’re pondering what to have for dinner, why not let a robot do the fetching? Just think about how you can sit back, relax, and let these gizmos handle the work for you. It’s a delicious way to embrace the future!
We can’t wait to see how this unfolds. Who’s excited to get their food delivered by a robot? Happy eating, Austin!
