Open Grubhub links in the app
Paste a Grubhub URL and get a link that opens the Grubhub app instead of the browser — with a web fallback for everyone else.
Free forever. No login. Works with grubhub.com links.
Which Grubhub links work
toThe.App recognises links on grubhub.com. These URL shapes are handled:
- https://www.grubhub.com/restaurant/RESTAURANT_SLUG
On iPhone
Restaurant URLs open to that restaurant in the app.
On Android
The Grubhub app opens when it is installed, and the browser takes over when it is not.
Known limitations
No link can force a phone to open an app. These are the cases where a Grubhub link falls back to the web:
- Grubhub is US-only.
- Menu item and order URLs are not linkable.
Questions
How do I make a Grubhub link open in the app?
Paste the Grubhub URL into the generator above and select Make short link. Share the result. On a phone with Grubhub installed, the link offers to open the app; otherwise it continues to the Grubhub website.
Which Grubhub URLs are supported?
Links on grubhub.com are recognised. Typical shapes: https://www.grubhub.com/restaurant/RESTAURANT_SLUG.
What happens on iPhone?
Restaurant URLs open to that restaurant in the app.
What happens on Android?
The Grubhub app opens when it is installed, and the browser takes over when it is not.
Why did the Grubhub app not open?
The device makes the final call. Common reasons: the app is not installed, the specific URL type is not covered (Grubhub is US-only.), or the link was tapped inside another app's in-app browser, which will not hand off to a native app. The web fallback always works.
