Delivery app fees eat your margin
Third-party apps bring orders, but commissions on every ticket add up fast and the customer relationship belongs to them, not you.

The challenges we hear most
Menus that are hard to use on a phone
PDF menus, outdated prices and tiny buttons frustrate hungry customers, and they will order from someone else instead.
Locals cannot find you
Searches for food or shops nearby are won by businesses with strong Google profiles, accurate hours and a fast website.
No way to bring customers back
Without your own ordering data, you cannot reach regulars with offers, so repeat business depends on luck.

Why your restaurant website with online ordering matters
Delivery apps made online ordering normal, but they also put a middleman between you and your customers. Every order carries a fee, and the app keeps the customer data that could help you bring people back. A restaurant website with online ordering gives customers a direct way to buy from you, so you keep more of each sale and build relationships that last beyond a single meal.
A good ordering experience feels effortless. Customers should see your menu, choose items and modifiers, pay securely and pick a pickup or delivery time in under a minute on their phone. Clear photos, smart add-on suggestions and saved favorites encourage larger orders. That focus on a smooth, branded ordering flow helped Wings Over grow online orders and lift average order value after launch.
The same principles work for retail. Bakeries, boutiques and local shops can sell online for pickup, local delivery or shipping, with inventory and product pages that are easy for your team to update. Local SEO ties it together: an optimized Google Business Profile, accurate hours and location pages help nearby shoppers and diners find you first. Many owners keep delivery apps for reach while steering regulars to order direct.
We build every restaurant website with online ordering around how your kitchen or store actually runs, from prep times and busy-hour limits to multiple locations. Automation can send order confirmations and occasional offers to past customers, and a custom app is an option for brands with strong repeat business. Starter websites begin at $999 and ordering and workflow features start at $1,500, so you can start simple and grow from there. We also make sure your menu, hours and photos are easy for your team to keep current, because nothing loses a hungry customer faster than an outdated menu or a closed sign they did not expect.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I take online orders without paying delivery app commissions?
Yes. We build online ordering directly into your website, so customers order and pay through your own site for pickup or delivery. You pay normal payment processing fees rather than per-order marketplace commissions. Many restaurants keep apps for discovery and use their own site to capture repeat customers and larger orders.
How much does a restaurant website with online ordering cost?
Starter websites begin at $999, and booking, ordering and workflow automation features start at $1,500. Costs depend on menu size, number of locations, delivery options and any integrations you need. You can get an instant estimate on our quote page and adjust features to fit your budget.
Can my staff update the menu and prices themselves?
Yes. We set up your menu or product catalog so your team can change items, prices, photos and availability without calling a developer. You can mark items as sold out, add specials and adjust hours in minutes. We walk your team through it before launch so updates feel routine.
Do you build online stores for local retailers?
Yes. We build websites for boutiques, bakeries and other local retailers that sell online for pickup, local delivery or shipping. Product pages, secure checkout and inventory tools are set up to match how you run your store, and local SEO helps nearby shoppers find you when they search.
Does this work for multiple locations?
Yes. We can build location pages with their own hours, menus and ordering options, so customers order from the right spot. Wings Over, a multi-location restaurant brand, is one example of a website with online ordering we have delivered. We plan location logic and kitchen workflows with you before building.
