What Grocery & Essentials Shops Can I Order From ?

food-panda-shops

Shop at Pandamart for groceries and at other popular shops, too.

foodpanda-shops-bangkok

You can even order books!

How Much Is the Delivery Fee?

It depends on the location and the shop or restaurant you are ordering from. You will see the delivery fee before you checkout, so you will know what you are paying.

Some restaurants offer free delivery. You can filter by “free delivery” on the website or app.

How Long Does the Food Take to be Delivered?

Each restaurant and shop offers an approximate delivery time in the top right-hand corner on the search page.

But that's just an estimate, and probably the best one at that. The delivery time depends on how busy the restaurant is and how many orders are in the queue.

Can I Order Food for Tomorrow?

Yes. You can order food for today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

choose-a-food-delivery-time

Order food for another day.

Can I Pick-up My Food Instead of Having it Delivered?

Choosing delivery means that a Foodpanda rider will collect your order from the restaurant and deliver it to your chosen address.

If you choose Pick-Up, you can self-collect your food and save money on the delivery fee. Pick-Up orders are available for restaurants only.

What Time Does Foodpanda Open and Close?

It doesn't. It's 24 hours. However, a lot of restaurants and shops will be unavailable for late night delivery. You'll see what's open when you search in your location.

The good news is, the Panda also deliver groceries 24 hours a day through Pandamart, their own supermarket, which you'll find on the website and app.

How do I Pay for My Food with Foodpanda?

You can pay using a credit or debit card or PayPal. You can also pay cash on delivery (COD).

Can I Order Foodpanda for a Friend?

Yes. It's easy. Just use your friend's name and address in the checkout. Note that orders placed to a wrong address are not eligible for a refund.

Does Foodpanda Have a Minimum Order Amount?

Some of the vendors require a minimum order value (“MOV”) before an order can be placed. The good news is that you can pay the extra to meet the minimum. This is a sensible idea for times when it's just you ordering and you only want one or two dishes.

What If I Need to Change My Order?

If you realize you've made a mistake, you can quickly jump on the LiveChat and they can let the restaurant know before it starts preparing the order.

You can also email in, but that may not be read immediately and mean your order is processed before you get a response.

Double check your cart before you checkout. It saves time and hassle.

What If I Want a Refund from Foodpanda?

Found a cockroach in your food? Don't tell everyone, they'll all want one! Ha, such a dad joke. But seriously, for refunds you need to contact Foodpanda and not the restaurant.

My Partner Has a Shop, Can He/She Join Foodpanda?

Yes. You just sign up on the website to list your menu and product online. Foodpanda will then help you process orders, pick them up, and deliver them to your customers.

    Horrible customer service online.
    I used a voucher to pay my order.
    My items were not available, they apologized as they can't deliver but they keep the voucher !
    How is it possible ???? And they say : "sorry for inconvenience but we can't do nothing, we will improve our service in the future" !!!
    Incredible and when you try to tell them you can steal money without any reason, I paid for something
    you couldn't provide so you need to refund me, they confirm they can do nothing and inform you that they have to close the case now !
    So easy !!!!
    Of course, when you call the customer service in BKK, they ask you to use the chat online!

    I would give them zero stars if I could. I ordered and gave the drop off address to deliver the food. They took money off my card and ignored delivery instructions and did not even contact me even although I gave my mobile number. No food was delivered and I was charged. I will chase this up with my bank as it is stealing. I complained on their app and I was assured that it would be investigated an led rectified. Now someone has emailed me stating I wont be refunded with no further explanation. Would recommend to never use this app. User's recommendation: Do not use this app

      File a dispute with your card issuer. That (typically) gets you an immediate refund while the vendor (FP in this case) and the card issuer fight it out.

    Foodpanda will not issue a refund on “cockroaches” in food or if half of your order is missing….and will only give you a voucher.

    Sometimes, you can’t use that voucher and if they expire, you just paid foodpanda for absolutely nothing- no service, no product, nothing.

    And if you ask them for your refund or a supervisor, they just disconnected t the chat without any help.

    Not sure what to do now- all I know is foodpanda has stolen a lot of money from people and the chat “representatives” refuse to help.

      You had a cockroach in your food? Oh my! I guess the issue would be with the restaurant. Did you take a picture and send it to the restaurant?

Hi! I’m Peter. I’ve been living & traveling in Thailand for 14 years. I’m here to give you all the information you need to make your Thai adventure safe, happy, & successful.

Recommended Thailand Services

I get a lot of requests for recommendations on services related to living in Thailand. To make things easier for you, I’ve compiled a list of those I use below.

Learning Thai

Thaipod101 is the best way to learn Thai online. It's how I started learning. They have hundreds of video and audio lessons to help you start speaking Thai today. Start free here.

Sending Money

Wise is the cheapest and fastest way to send money to Thailand. I use it and so do many of my readers. Go here to get your first transfer free.

Financial Planning

Whether you need life insurance, pension planning or other investment advice, I can connect you with my personal IFA. Simply fill out this form.

Health Insurance

I recommend getting a quote from Cigna for international Insurance, and then comparing that with local insurance premiums on Mr Prakan.

Travel Services

Hotels: Agoda offers good deals on hotels in Thailand. This is because they are located in the region and secure lots of special promotions. It's also worth trying Booking.com and Hotels.com for comparison.

Travel Insurance: SafetyWing is great for trips to Thailand and elsewhere. I've used them many times. If you're from the UK/Europe you can also try True Traveller.

Over 70? Insure My Trip. has policies for those struggling to find travel insurance cover due to age restrictions.

Bank Account

Need an international bank account that holds multiple currencies and lets you transfer, receive & spend wherever you are, with a MasterCard. I've used one for 4 years. Check out Wise.

Rent / Buy Property

Looking for an apartment to rent or a home to buy? For the largest selection of properties in Thailand, and a completely free service, visit PropertyScout here.
