The price for a Pepperoni Flatbread Pizza at Panera Bread on your website says $14.3, but Panera's official mobile app says its $10.49. Why is there a price difference?

Thanks for pointing that out - I will be adding more serverless code for instant price update.

An indication of how many pages are in the result list would be nice, instead of just Next and Prev buttons. "Page x of y" sort of thing.

Since the numbers are near millions, we have switched it back to prev, next and will replace it by infinite loading

Prices seem to be wrong. Like the data is pulled from some more populous location and superimposed on every branch of the chain.

Thanks for pointing that out, they are pulled from each chain, but I will add few more serverless code to get instant price update :)

The terminology is a bit strange to me as an American. "Food stores" sounds like you're talking about grocery stores/supermarkets/butchers/bakeries/etc., not restaurants. Calling a restaurant a "store" sounds odd.

I would just go ahead and substitute the word "restaurant" in most places.

The title dropped the Delivery.

My guess is you're pulling data from food delivery companies, which mark up prices on food items alongside charging a delivery fee.

Why can't I search by restaurant name / type? It's just an endless list of restaurants in my zip code?

And why can't I search by food? Like show me all the restaurants near me with tacos. That would be useful.

Prices formatted incorrectly: $1.5 should be $1.50

None of the footer links work: About Us, Developers, etc.

That's a non-standard use of the term "food store." Kroger is a food store, Qdoba is a restaurant. And it's a bit misleading to show a photo of some other restaurant's food. I would expect the photo to show food from that restaurant, not from a different restaurant. It's pretty annoying that there are only nine listings on each page. And no way to sort. Or skip to a particular page.
