As much as we all love to eat, the time and effort it takes to make an actual meal can be daunting. Cooking requires patience, effort, and time, but many students at GVSU lack at least one of these three things.

Thankfully, somebody is willing to make our food, and deliver it to wherever you are on Grand Valley's Allendale campus. With the convience of cell phones, credit cards, and an internet connection, eating something delicious just got a whole lot easier.

Listed below are five great locations that deliver directly to campus, allowing students to continue basking in their procrastination while anticipating a tasty meal.

1. Jet's Pizza

Luckily, Jet's pizza has many yummy options and are willing to deliver directly to your door. So when you're up for something easy that will complement your Netflix binge, Jet's may be the place for you.

After a long night of...studying, nothing hits the spot better than a delicious dub. A tortilla filled with anything ranging from french toast and bacon to chicken tenders and potatoes. Menna's is great for satisfying those late night munchies.
