Commenting on the winners of the annual Just Eat Awards, Amanda Roche-Kelly, Managing Director of Just Eat Ireland said: ‘Foodies have never had as much choice for innovative, delicious and bold dishes. This year marks eleven years of the annual Just Eat Awards. We wanted to do something particularly special for our partners this year and we’re delighted to award this year’s ‘Best of Ireland’ winner, Handsome Burger, with a €50,000 media package. Rory and the Handsome Burger team have truly built up a phenomenal following since bursting onto the food delivery scene over six years ago, and with plans to ‘take over the world’ (in their words!) in sight, we look forward to supporting them in getting closer to that goal

Congratulations to all this year’s winners, and to all our partners, for their ongoing dedication and innovation that you put into every dish, and to every meal delivered. Our partners are central to everything we do, and I would like to thank the public that voted and showed support to their favourite local restaurants too’.
