While we usually think of just ordering main dishes or entrees for our takeout meals, don’t discount the power of the side dish. Over 98% of Door Dash users say they order side dishes with their meals like hash browns (which were up 1,200%) and Brussels sprouts (orders were up 1,280%).

“We believe sides are on the rise as they're helping our customers round out their meals on this exploration of new cuisines and dishes, and are an easy add on to expanding the meal experience,” a DoorDash spokesperson said. 

As more customers are opting to eat at home rather than go out, they’re treating takeout meals like they would a meal at a restaurant. And what’s a meal out without dessert? Delivered sweets are on the rise, particularly molten chocolate cakes (where order were up 1,350%).

Desserts may be on the rise but surprisingly, apple pie is in a league of its own. Apple pie was the number one food on the rise for 2020 according to DoorDash customers, with a 1,550% spike in orders in 2019.

Another unexpected side dish that has gained popularity? This deep-fried, cheesy comfort food ranked number two on the list of foods on the rise for 2020, with a 1,360% increase in orders in 2019.

As personalized, DIY lunches become the norm for trendy fast-casual eateries, why would takeout be any different? According to DoorDash, 96%of customers customize their orders. DIY pizza was the number four most ordered dish of 2019,  and make-your-own sushi rolls saw a 902% increase in orders.

Forget classic soups like chicken noodle and minestrone, DoorDash is seeing an uptick in orders of more unique broths like tortilla soup (1,130%) and broccoli cheddar soup (640%).

Blame McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish all you want, but fried fish has seen a jump in popularity with fried fish sandwich orders up 1,030%.
