The Awards will take place in October and will seek to recognise small, medium, and large restaurant businesses as well as new vertical merchants that have provided outstanding service to consumers throughout the year.
Uber Eats has lined up an exciting array of prizes for the winning merchants.
The public is invited to nominate their favourite local merchant from across the country by applying the code 'CASTMYVOTE' on their next order at their favourite merchant on Uber Eats or through prompts that will appear in their Uber Eats app with instructions on how to vote. Voting is now open and closes on 1 October 2023.
