Same on GrubHub. Individual item markup of 1 or 2 dollars each, delivery fee, and 10% service fee (on the sum of order + delivery fee + taxes). So what would be 20 in store becomes something like 25 (food) + 1.50 taxes + 4 delivery fee + 3.05 service fee, then tipping on that 33.55 which brings what should have been 20-22 dollars as pickup (or 28 pickup through GrubHub) up to 38-40 dollars minimum. Damn near double
If you want to see it easily, check the Chipotle app. They contract their delivery, so if you change menu from pick-up to delivery, you can see before your eyes how much it's marked up.
My wife and I used to argue about getting Chipotle delivered when it's less than a mile from our house. I'll gladly go pick it up and save the $10-15
