Man Baffled by Note on Deliveroo Order – Here's the Heartwarming Reason
A baffled man received a cryptic message on his Deliveroo order from Oowee, a popular burger joint in Bristol, prompting widespread curiosity and amusement online. Stories of minor hiccups in food delivery, like receiving the wrong meal or a poorly packaged order, are common, but this man encountered an unexpected twist. His mouth-watering meal arrived with an undecipherable note scribbled on the bag. Eager to uncover its meaning, he turned to Reddit, sharing a picture of the cryptic script.
The intriguing post quickly went viral, attracting attention across the UK. Among the curious were doctors and NHS staff, who playfully referenced the stereotype of their own notoriously difficult handwriting. After an entertaining crowd-sourced effort to decode the note, the message was revealed: "Was it love at first bite? Leave us a review to let us know."
Respondents engaged with the post humorously. One noted, "Was it love at first bite? Leave us a review to let us know. NHS worker; piece of cake." Another quipped about the challenges faced by junior doctors, jesting they were moonlighting in food delivery. The handwriting was likened to "hieroglyphics," and some assumed the Oowee staff member was a journalism student recently introduced to shorthand.
Charlie Watson, co-founder of Oowee alongside Verity Foss, explained the heartwarming motive behind the enigmatic note. He encourages his staff to leave personalized messages on all orders to introduce a human element in online transactions, knowing this particular note was likely written swiftly amid peak-hour busyness. Watson insisted, "Our goal is to add that human touch in what can often feel like a faceless experience of online ordering. We believe in showing care and passion through these personal gestures."
