An Uber Eats courier in Hackney, east London, stunned TikTok by kayaking down Regent’s Canal on June 3, green delivery box in tow. The viral clip, filmed by Hannah, racked up over 1 million views and hundreds of comments, including the pun 'CanoeberEats.'
Instead of a car or bike, the courier paddled a green kayak past canal bridges, prompting reactions like “God forbid a man takes the scenic route.” The unusual Uber Eats delivery method left Londoners speculating about app updates and scenic shortcuts through Islington and Finsbury Park.
One TikTok user quipped, “Does it say on the app ‘arriving on a canoe’?” highlighting the delivery’s surreal twist.
