Entering Non-Kosher Restaurants for Deliveries
Question
I am having trouble finding a job. May I deliver Uber Eats by bike and enter non-kosher restaurants to pick up orders? I saw an answer about delivering non-kosher food, but I am asking specifically about entering the restaurant to pick it up. Thank you.
Answer
Thank you for your question.
As long as the food is not under your responsibility the actual delivery would be permitted.
With regard to marit ayin, however, there is a concern. Therefore, it would be permitted only if, for example, you could receive the food away from the shop in a way that people would not know it came from a treif shop, and it is in a container that does not identify it as coming from a non-kosher restaurant.
Wishing you a Gemar Chasimah Tovah.
