How to Order
We'll walk through this using the Gojek app.
Step 1: Open the App & Select GoFood
From the home screen, tap "Food" (or "GrabFood" if you're using Grab).
YUKIThe amount circled in red is my current Gojek balance.
- How do I top up my balance?
-
You can transfer via online banking with an Indonesian bank, or add cash at a convenience store.
- Is it easier to pay cash or register a card?
-
Registering a card is by far the more convenient option!
Step 2: Choose a Restaurant
Type what you're craving — like "pizza" or "nasi goreng" — into the search bar, or search directly by restaurant name.
You can also browse the "Near Me" section for nearby options.
Step 3: Browse the Menu
Once you're on the restaurant's page, scroll through the full menu and pick what you'd like to order.
▼Tap any menu photo to see more details about that dish.
Step 4: Review Your Order
There are three things to check before confirming.
First, "Delivery" is selected by default — no need to change this.
If you'd rather pick it up yourself, tap "Change" and select "Self Pick Up."
Next is delivery speed — Express, Regular, or Mode Hemat (budget option). "Regular" is selected by default.
Finally, there's your delivery location.
YUKIIt helps to add details in the address notes — like your hotel name, or 'leave at front desk.'
Look Out for Promos and Confirm Your Total
Scroll all the way down to make sure your order looks right. Occasionally there are glitches — like a wrong quantity or a missing item.
Check the promo section too, in case there's a discount available.
Finally, confirm the total and payment method at the bottom, then tap "Place Delivery Order."
YUKIIf your GoPay balance isn't enough, you can pay the difference in cash.
Step 5: Track Your Delivery
Once you place the order, it's sent straight to the restaurant, and they'll start preparing it.
At the same time, the app starts matching you with a delivery driver.
Step 6: A Driver Is Assigned
Once matched, you'll see the driver's photo, name, and license plate number.
Tap the message icon on the right to send them a quick note!
Always send your driver a message.
This applies to car and bike rides too — once matched, confirm with a quick message so the driver knows you're ready to go.
Not Sure What to Say?
No worries — there are pre-written Quick Chat options. Just tap the one confirming your order and location match what's in the app.
Once your food's ready and the driver's on the move, you'll see a live map.
Step 7: Receive Your Food
When the driver's about a minute away, the screen will update to let you know.
YUKIThat's usually my cue to head outside and wait for the driver.
Head out to the street, and there's your driver, food in tow!
Grab your order and hand over a cash tip.
