ABSTRACT: Online food delivery apps serve as a digital tool allowing users to view available options, select food, and place an online order. Due to the growing interest in online food delivery apps, this bibliometric study comprehensively analyses the field to determine the factors influencing consumer purchase intention. The study examines key variables such as time-saving orientation, price service orientation, social influence, E-Service quality, E-Trust, E-Security, and attitude in the context of consumer purchase intention through online food ordering. A total of 328 papers collected from the Scopus database between 2013 and 2025 were analysed. Using VOS Viewer and Biblioshiny software, this research employs co-citation and co-occurrence networks to identify evolving themes, influential authors, prominent publications, and dominant countries in the OFDA research domain. The findings provide a thorough review of the field, outlining research directions and themes that have developed and changed over the active years. This comprehensive set of information is necessary and valuable for researchers due to the increasing adoption of OFDA globally and the growing number of research articles on the topic.
