Anywhere Delivered Brings Food From New York City Restaurants To The Hamptons

Craving a New York City bagel, sushi or just want to try something new? Call Jack Kobre and Danny Stonberg, owners of Anywhere Delivered, a delivery service that will deliver food from New York City restaurants to the East End.

Kobre and Stonberg both attend the University of Pennsylvania and have been summering on the East End since their childhoods. Kobre spends the summer in Southampton and Stonberg in Sag Harbor.

Kobre came up with the idea for Anywhere Delivered this year during his gap year, and pitched it to Stonberg while visiting him at college.

“I said, this is a great idea, this isn’t a service that is really being ran,” said Stonberg. “There is nothing where you can get a nearby city for a three-hour delivery.”

Anywhere Delivered utilizes special food transportation technology, such as coolers, heat packs and dry ice to keep food at the perfect temperature, and anti-sog technology to keep fries from getting soggy.

Kobre and Stonberg ran multiple test runs to make sure everything stayed fresh, especially French fries. After a soft opening for friends and family, the company is now ready for public orders.

The company charges a 44 percent order fee, plus a $15 delivery fee on all orders.

There are partnerships with restaurants in the city, which give customers a discount on their orders.

Orders take about three hours to be delivered, with an express option available. Kobre and Stronberg have recruited a team of their friends to work together to deliver orders.

Kobre noted that many restaurants that Anywhere Delivered orders from, have already been running some type of delivery service, with many bringing half-cooked meals weekly for customers. Anywhere Delivered is meant to give customers a night off from cooking or heating up these half-cooked meals.

The company is not attempting to take business from East End restaurants, and they hope to establish connections with local restaurants to offer delivery from local establishments as well.

The company also wants to help Hamptons locals explore new restaurants in the city from the comfort of their home.

“The clientele that we have reached so far are people that would otherwise be cooking in their homes,” Kobre said, noting that their clients are not prioritizing city restaurants.

Stonberg mentioned that some of their deliveries are clients choosing to stock their pantry with bagels for the entire weekend’s breakfasts or deli meats for lunches.

“You can order from the restaurants you are loyal to,” Stonberg said.

“Some people want to stay in the Hamptons and don’t want to have to go back and forth every time they want their favorite New York city restaurants,” Stonberg added.

According to Kobre, their most popular order so far has been sushi, something offered more extensively in the city.

To help support businesses on the East End, Anywhere Delivered donates 5 percent of its profits to Heart of the Hamptons.
