Yes you shouldn't have to go out and get an I phone just to use this site!

Hi

If you have an iPhone, iPod or iPad you can use the app, it's much
easier and our use hungryhouse all the time when I want a takeaway so I
have no reason or cause to complain about the service.

    Interestingly they have just sent me a survey about what I think of

    Granted their competitors http://justeat.co.uk site has still a lot
    of room for improvement as well, but at least I can use it.

    Sounds like a good one for Web Pages That Suck.
    http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/

    As you indicate, even the HTML is way off. The W3C validator finds
    125 HTML errors, plus many warnings. Term 1 fail!

        Wow - where do I even begin to start with this mess. I'm a sighted
        user mainly using Chromevox for learning and testing, and it
        wasn't at
        all accessible. I did eventually manage to get to the results,
        but it
        required endless tabbing, and the results are not presented as a
        list.
        Not only is there no use of even the most basic ARIA accessibility
        markup, there isn't even the most basic correct use of HTML tags,
        markup and landmarks. Literally everything is wrong with this page,
        not just from an accessibility viewpoint but also the encoding is
        wrong, the developers have no clue how to optimize, the markup is
        appalling - well, I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions
        from the
        test report results below, but bearing in mind this won Dragons Den
        funding, I'll bet the site developers charged tens of thousands.

        ALL pages fail on almost all basic accessibility checks at
        
http://try.powermapper.com/Reports/2c6d61ee-683d-47f1-b825-60dc8d6473eb/report/map.ACC.htm.


        And according to accessibility guideline checker http://achecker.ca,
        that one menu page you mentioned has 499 definite problems and 1032
        potential problems.

        The offficial W3 validator shows 65 hard fail errors.
        
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fhungryhouse.co.uk%2Ftakeaways%2Fsouthwark-waterloo-bermondsey-borough-se1&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0


        It also has a mobile version of the site, but again this fails
        and is
        a navigation nightmare.
        Have a try if you have any more luck with this - I didn't get
        far on Chromevox.
