// Problem
The challenge
Third-party ordering platforms charged double-digit commissions on every ticket and kept the customer data. For a small restaurant on thin margins, that's the difference between a good month and a bad one.
// Solution
What we built
A clean, self-owned ordering experience the restaurant fully controls.
- A fast, mobile-first ordering site with a menu the owner can update in minutes
- Secure card payments (Stripe) with pickup and delivery flows
- Orders routed straight to a kitchen display / printer with clear tickets
- No per-order commission and full ownership of the customer relationship
// Architecture
How it works
A lightweight Node.js app serves the menu and cart, takes payment through Stripe, and pushes confirmed orders to the kitchen in real time. Menu and availability are editable through a simple admin view, so 86'ing an item is instant.
// Outcome
Results
- Commission on direct orders cut to zero — margin back in the owner's pocket
- A mobile ordering experience customers actually finish
- The restaurant owns its menu, its orders, and its customers
