Deliveroo data reveals students are big on burgers, with the classic comfort food the most popular cuisine ordered in the last year.

Students who open a new student account from August 1, 2025 can receive a £100 cash incentive when they pay in at least £500 between August 1 and October 31, 2025.
On top of that, students can enjoy £90 in Deliveroo vouchers - that's £15 a month for six months - as long as they make 20 qualifying transactions each month.
If students across the UK sign up to Deliveroo Students at the start of term, they will pay no delivery charges with Deliveroo Plus Silver on takeaway orders over £15 (restaurants) or £25 (grocery and retail shops) and can also access exclusive restaurant and grocery offers all year round.
What other benefits does the Bank of Scotland student account come with?
Students can apply for an interest free arranged overdraft, of up to £1,500, subject to application and assessment.
Commenting on the new offer, Martin Turner, Head of Personal Current Accounts, Bank of Scotland, said: 'We know student life can be hectic and expensive, so we've packed this account with real value. From £100 cash in your pocket to six months of Deliveroo vouchers, it's our best student offer yet.
"As a parent myself, I know first-hand how exciting and a little overwhelming - this time of year can be. My own son is preparing to head off to university this Autumn, so our household is currently a flurry of packing lists, form filling and last-minute advice. It's a big milestone, not just for students but for families too."
Georgie Williams, Director of Loyalty at Deliveroo said: 'We're thrilled to partner with Bank of Scotland to make student life even more delicious and convenient! From late-night study snacks and grocery essentials to well-deserved weekend treats, Deliveroo is proud to be a go-to for students across the UK.
