Amazon Prime Now is already making one-hour deliveries from local restaurants in cites such as Baltimore, Seattle, and Los Angeles, having recently even announced alcohol deliveries in New York City.
And now another prominent city can be added to the list. On Tuesday morning, Amazon announced that Austin subscribers can now enjoy one-hour delivery from local restaurants and food trucks as part of its Prime Now service.
The local restaurants include everything from Boteco ATX, Chi'Lantro, Clay Pit, Michi Ramen, Moonshine Patio Bar & Grill, Southside Flying Pizza, Sugar Mama's Bakeshop, Terry Black's Barbecue, and many more.
Just like the other cities, Austin customers can view participating restaurants, browse menus, place orders and track their deliveries all from Prime Now's mobile app. The Prime Now service is available across 15 zip codes in and around downtown Austin with the selection slated to expand in the coming weeks.
"Austin is a haven for people who love great music, great weather and great food," Amazon Restaurants general manager Gus Lopez said in a press release statement. "That's a perfect fit with restaurant delivery on Prime Now: we take care of mealtime so our customers have more time for the things they love."
Southside Flying Pizza owner Art Goldstein added: "We are immensely excited to offer our fresh, made-from-scratch pizza and delicious salads to customers through Amazon's Prime Now service. For 10 years we have surprised and delighted our customers with large portions and outstanding quality. Now, Prime Now makes it even easier to order from and enjoy Southside Flying Pizza."
