Deliveroo To Expand Its Services Into Campsites In Ireland

Food delivery firm Deliveroo has announced that it is expanding its services into campsites in Ireland.

Campsite Services Details

Deliveroo stated, "Leading food-delivery company Deliveroo is expanding its services into campsites in Ireland this summer for holiday staycations. This year, when many people will be holidaying locally, Deliveroo is offering customers the opportunity to order their favourite food or groceries straight to their tent, caravan, or mobile home door.

"The service will initially be available at Camac Valley Tourist Caravan and Camping Park in Clondalkin in Dublin as well as O'Halloran's Caravan Park, Salthill, and Salthill Caravan Park, both in Galway. Local restaurants such Osteria Italiana da Simone and Hush?Burger are available in Galway, but campers looking for something familiar can also treat themselves to some of Ireland’s most loved chains such as Boojum and Xian Street Food. In Dublin, campers can avail of great dishes from family favourites such as Leo Burdock, Wowburger and Offbeat Donuts. Campers in both locations that prefer to cook up a storm can order ALDI groceries straight to their tent on Deliveroo."
