Google adds food delivery option to search results

Google voice search has evolved considerably over the last year or so, bringing cards that describe illnesses, cards for different types of drinks, and most recently adding voice command support for an increasing number of third party apps. Now Google is aiming to make it easier than ever to order takeout.

To use the feature you’ll need to perform a search for a restaurant that offers deliveries, you’ll then see an option under the restaurant listing that reads “Place an Order”. Clicking on this will let you pick to use one of six different delivery services: Seamless, Grubhub, Eat24, Delivery.com, BeyondMenu, or MyPizza.com. While supporting just six services (initially in the US only) makes this option pretty limited, the good news is that Google says it plans to roll out support for more services, and perhaps even more countries, in the future.

What do you think of this latest feature, something you could see yourself using? What other new Google search options would you like to see Google add in the future? Let us know in the comments.
