Wonder Food Delivery Is Coming to Boston in 2026

From a Bobby Flay steakhouse to José Andrés paella, the ‘fast fine’ app and takeout service brings celebrity chef-designed menus and multi-restaurant ordering to Greater Boston.

What do you order at home when everyone wants something different—and you don’t want to suffer the indignities of doubling your DoorDash? There will soon be a new solution for dinner’s most annoying negotiation: Wonder, a food-delivery service that lets you combine multiple restaurant menus in a single order, is expanding to Greater Boston early next year. Bonus: Some of its menus are developed through partnerships with huge culinary names around the country. Delivery-friendly seafood paella by José Andrés, anyone?

Wonder was founded in 2018 by e-commerce expert Marc Lore, former president and CEO of Walmart’s United States e-commerce division, among other roles. Wonder has been undergoing explosive growth over the past couple years, including the acquisitions of meal-delivery service Blue Apron (2023) and restaurant-delivery giant Grubhub (2025). There are currently 70 locations around the Northeast, and next year will see the opening of as many as 16 outposts  around Greater Boston, starting with Natick, Belmont, Framingham, Acton, Newton, Medford, Watertown, Canton, and Burlington early in 2026. Seven more are slated to follow later in the year. Each local branch will offer delivery (free, and promised to arrive within 35 minutes), takeout, and seating for dining in.

The company aims to “satisfy every craving without compromise,” says Courtney Lawrie, Wonder’s senior vice president and general manager. To that end, customers can mix and match from multiple virtual restaurants. “Bringing that innovative solution to Boston, which is such a tech-forward city, is really cool,” says Lawrie, who was born and raised in Boston and still lives here.

“You might want Thai, but someone you’re having over wants pizza,” says Lawrie. Mother to two boys, Lawrie also notes Wonder’s kid-friendliness. They can enjoy, say, chicken tenders or grilled cheese from Bellies while the grownups opt for something a little more sophisticated, like shrimp saganaki and spanakopita from Chios Taverna by chef and TV personality Michael Symon. Some of Wonder’s other notable brands include virtual restaurants by Queens, New York’s Thai mainstay SriPraPhai, acclaimed D.C.-based Middle Eastern restaurant Maydān, and Brooklyn’s popular Di Fara Pizza, as well as a steakhouse concept by Bobby Flay.

In addition to Wonder’s in-house virtual restaurants, the company is putting that Grubhub acquisition to use and will be delivering from other local restaurants. When customers open the Wonder app, they’ll see the Wonder options as well as local spots within the 35-minute delivery radius. (Since those meals aren’t prepared in the Wonder kitchens, the option to mix and match non-Wonder menus in a single order doesn’t apply.)

When joining new markets, the Wonder team looks for ways to give back to the community. In Boston, they’re teaming up with the Greater Boston Food Bank to help support the organization’s mission to end hunger in Eastern Massachusetts. During Wonder’s first week here, each area location will donate a dollar from every order to the food bank, and customers will have the option to round up their orders as a donation. Future aspects of the charitable partnership are under development as well.

Wonder’s overall mission is to “bring accessibility to great, delicious food,” says Lawrie, whether customers are looking to try a dish designed by a fan-favorite chef from a different city or just accommodate a variety of appetites and preferences. It’s all in one app, and it’ll be here soon.
