Kevin Smith Launches Mooby’s Delivery Service In Los Angeles to Benefit Charity

April 13, 2020 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Kevin Smith is set to launch a delivery service from his fictional fast-food chain Mooby’s for a week to benefit charity. Smith posted to his Instagram account on Monday announcing that he will launch the delivery service on April 19th, running through April 25th.

The service will be available exclusively through Postmates with the money raised to benefit No Us Without You, a charity that provides food to for families of undocumented restaurant workers during the current pandemic. This will be a preview for a Pop-Up store that will be available later this year.

The announcement notes:

Ever since I first introduced the fictional fast food joint in my films, folks have said “You suck at movies, so open a Mooby’s!” Now the folks who did @savedbythemax is building the @moobyspopup – an IRL eatery in Los Angeles that opens later this year, pandemic depending! But as a preview of what’s to come, a Mooby Meal will be available for delivery in L.A. via @postmates starting THIS SUNDAY and running til 4/25! Our takeout Mooby Meals include “Mooby’s Messy Lasagna Sandwich” with a side of “Hater Totz” and “Chocolate Covered Pretzels” for dessert! And for your “toy surprise”, we include an autographed Reboot card from me, that will also entitle the bearer to front row slots when the pop-up is finally open to the public! And we’re donating the proceeds to @nouswithoutyou (providing meals to families in need effected by Covid 19).

If you’ve ever seen #dogma, or #jayandsilentbobstrikeback, or #clerks2, or #jayandsilentbobreboot, you’ve seen fake people eat at a fake fast food joint! Now, BE a fake person eating actual food from a real restaurant! Many thanks to @heyitsderekberry and the #savedbythemax folks for making a dopey dream come true! Follow @moobyspopup and on the high holiday of 4/20, live the Mooby’s slogan “I’m Eating It!” (Mooby Meals will be prepared by Chef @royce_burke and the @secret_lasagna team. Limited amounts daily, all of which will be offered first come, first serve. Hours 12pm-8pm. Follow @MoobysPopUp for more info!)
