Ordering takeout is a short script you can reuse. Watch the video, then place an order.

  1. Choose a restaurant and look at the menu online or on paper.

  2. Decide what you want and check the price.

  3. Call the restaurant or open their app or website.

  4. Say or tap that the order is for pickup, then give your food choices one at a time.

  5. Give your name and phone number if they ask.

  6. Pay on the app, or bring a card or cash when you pick it up.

  7. Listen for how many minutes it will take, then go to the counter and give your name.

See it first. Go with confidence.

Hi, I'm Iris! Tell me what you're looking for: a place to preview (like "Park Library" or "a dentist office"), a specific city (like "Lansing, MI" or "Petoskey, MI"), or a how-to video (like "tying shoes" or "self-checkout"), and I'll find it for you.
