DETROIT – A restaurant in Detroit said it’s done offering delivery and pointed the finger at a popular business as the reason why.
Iggy’s Eggies is a well-known breakfast and lunch spot on Grand River Avenue in Detroit. But apparently, it’s been having some issues with deliveries.
On Friday, March 1, 2024, the company posted an Instagram story announcing that deliveries are being temporarily halted because of DoorDash drivers.
“Iggy’s is temporarily shutting down delivery while we find a better solution,” the post said. “Continuing to allow DoorDash drivers to to repeatedly steal food not working for you or us. Sorry for the inconvenience, Detroit. But bad actors make good things difficult from time to time.”
Here is a statement from DoorDash spokesperson Julian Crowley:
“Make no mistake: We have absolutely zero tolerance for theft of any kind.
“We take the claims made by Iggy’s Eggies extremely seriously and we’re reaching out to better understand and confirm all of the facts.
“If it is confirmed that any Dasher has stolen one order or even one cent from this restaurant, they could of course face serious consequences, and would lose access to our platform.”
