Planning Your Holiday Orders Around the Schedule

Holiday nights in Portland rarely behave like ordinary ones. Restaurants close early or shut for the day, staff take time off, and demand tends to bunch into a few short windows, especially in the hours before a reduced-service day and on New Year's Eve. A little planning makes a big difference to whether your order arrives when you want it.

Order early in the window

When service runs to a cut-off, the last hour is usually the busiest. If you know you will want a delivery on Thanksgiving Eve or New Year's Eve, place it earlier in the evening rather than close to closing time. Late orders placed just before a cut-off may not be accepted if drivers are already committed to other drops.

Check what is actually open

Our schedule only tells you when couriers are on the road. Partner kitchens and shops set their own holiday hours, and some items on the menu may be unavailable on certain nights. It is worth confirming that the place you want to order from is open before you plan a meal around it.

Allow for weather and traffic

Late November through early January is Portland's wet, dark season, and the occasional ice or snow event can slow every route in the city. Bridge crossings and busy nightlife areas can also back up on New Year's Eve. Expect longer delivery times, keep your phone handy so a driver can reach you, and make sure your building entrance or porch light is easy to find after dark.

Know your zone

Reduced-service nights may mean fewer drivers covering the same area, so outer neighbourhoods can see the biggest delays. Look up your address on the delivery zones page and review our regular hours so you know when normal service returns after each holiday.

Be kind to your courier

Holiday shifts are often worked by people who would rather be home with family. Clear directions, a safe place to park nearby and a little patience on the busiest nights go a long way, and a tip is always appreciated when someone is out on the road while the rest of the city celebrates.
