From Their Phone To Your Team

A Real Service.
A Simpler Way To Order.

Your Customer Scans And Orders

A QR code on the table opens your menu on their phone. They choose their food and place an order with the branch and table already identified.

Your Team Sees The Order

The order arrives digitally with its location. Your team can see what has been ordered and where it needs to go, while getting on with preparing the food.

We Do The Work

You Serve The Food.
We Build The Menu.

Send us your existing menu and we will turn it into a complete digital experience, including images, descriptions, prices and the details customers need. You review it, we bring it together.

Done For You

We create and organise your menu, prepare imagery and write descriptions so you can concentrate on running your business.

Manage It Yourself

Prefer to make your own changes? Your team can create and maintain menu items, descriptions, images and prices themselves.

Built Around You

Use the core OpenTab platform or talk to us about a custom build for your brand, service process and particular requirements.

Scan. Choose. Order.

The Right Order.
The Right Location.

01

A QR For Every Place

Unique QR codes can identify your business, branch and the exact table, hotel room or serving point. Unlimited QR codes and unlimited sublocations are included.

02

A Menu On Their Phone

Customers scan, browse and place their order. Filters help them narrow the choice, for example excluding fish or meat.

03

Your Team Knows Where

The order appears digitally for your team with its branch and table or room number, so they know where it belongs without asking the customer to type it.

One Platform. Different Ways To Serve.

From The Dining Room
To Room Service.

Restaurants & Cafes

Put a QR code on every table. Customers order from their phones and your team receives the order with the correct branch and table already attached.

Takeaway & Delivery

Take direct orders through your own menu instead of relying on the major delivery apps. Use the same menu or separate menus for dining in, takeaway and delivery. Set different prices for each service and add delivery fees when you choose.

Food Trucks, Vans & Ice Cream

From street food vans to mobile ice cream sellers, display a QR code on the vehicle, serving hatch or a poster. Customers scan and order on their phones, and the order appears digitally on your team's phone. Take payment online or let staff collect payment at the counter.

Hotels & Room Service

A QR code in each room opens your room service menu. The service team is alerted to the order and room number automatically. Turn online payment off if you prefer to collect payment at checkout, or turn it on so guests pay when ordering.

Wherever You Serve

At The Table.
In The Room. Beside The Van.

Room Service Without The Phone Call

Guests scan the code in their room, browse and order. Your team receives the room number automatically. Choose online payment or payment at checkout.

Your Food Van, Ready To Take Orders

Put the QR code where customers can see it. They browse on their own phone and place an order while your team keeps cooking. Receive orders on a phone or tablet and take payment online or at the counter.

Ice Cream & Mobile Treats

Show flavours, toppings, drinks and prices on a mobile menu. Customers order from the QR code on your van or sign, and the vendor sees the order digitally. Perfect for ice cream vans, coffee carts and other mobile food businesses.

Example Service

Two Cones.
One Easy Order.

  1. A customer scans the QR code on the ice cream van.
  2. They choose flavours and toppings from the menu on their phone.
  3. The order appears on the vendor's phone or tablet.
  4. Payment is taken online or by the vendor at collection, depending on the business's settings.
