### 5/5 — Local business go-to app

*2020-06-24*

I don’t need an app to tell me what the food at TGI Friday’s looks like. I like grumble because it helps me find local businesses. They need our help after Covid! Support local businesses!

### 5/5 — I’m hungry

### 5/5 — My Go-to for Lunch, Dinner and a Snack

### 5/5 — Nice app. I am now feeling.. hungry

### 5/5 — Is your stomach grumbling?

*2020-04-03*

I feel like all I do is eat during quarantine, so this app is legit life saver! You gotta try it.

### 5/5 — Professional Food Photographer?

*2020-04-03*

Totally change my perspective on deciding what to eat.  I would have been stuck in my regular food routine without this app.  Fine tuned filtering and actually being able to see what I’m getting takes the nerve off of hoping you’re getting what you think you’re reading in  a text description of other apps.

GAME CHANGER!!!

### 5/5 — A comprehensive app for vegan

*2020-04-03*

So obviously there are apps out there that navigate you to food in your neighborhood. I took a look at grumbles as a solution to the “vegan/vegetarian” content problem in google and yelp. It’s struggle finding options on those apps. GRUMBLES might be the answer here.

The list of vegetarian options seems to be growing and once it is at full capacity it may be the only option to rely on for vegetarian menus.

If you’re curious, I’d join the community and help it take off. The technology is in place, and the food is rolling in!

### 5/5 — Useful

*2020-04-03*

Fantastic App, really helps me too choose what to eat based on the pictures
