BentoBox alternative

A simpler alternative, updated by message.

Kitch is a live restaurant page for menus, hours, promos, QR, and direct orders — kept current by saying what changed, and private proof before payment for one location.

Tell Kitch about your restaurant and first job, then review the current trial and card terms at checkout. Nothing publishes without approval.

Starter starts at 49/month in supported local currencies and includes website, menu, QR, Kitch POS and Tell Kitch. Online direct ordering requires Kitch Orders for new subscriptions. Bring a domain you already own if you want a custom web address. Kitch does not sell or register domains.

The job

Built for restaurant people, not software people.

Independent restaurants, cafés, and bars comparing restaurant website platforms who want something fast to keep current, simple to run, and available through the private Kitch preview.

The problem

The work is already happening.

A full restaurant website platform can do a lot. But for many independents the day-to-day need is simple: keep the menu, hours, and specials true, give guests a QR and a link, and take the occasional direct order — without a website login or a support ticket for a small change. The question is usually fit and effort, not features.

“Put happy hour live from 5–7 by message.”

“Change holiday hours and keep the same QR.”

What Kitch is

Kitch is a live restaurant page focused on the parts that change: the menu, hours, promos, contact, QR, link-in-bio, and direct orders. You keep it current by telling Kitch what changed, in plain words, and the guest page reflects it.

You can see the private proof with no card before choosing a paid plan.

How Kitch compares

BentoBox is a full-service restaurant website and online-ordering platform. Kitch focuses on the live, high-change layer — the menu, hours, promos, QR, and direct orders you touch most — and is built to be updated by message and private proof before payment.

If you want an all-in-one, hands-on website build, a platform like BentoBox may be the right fit. If you want a restaurant page that stays current by message, turns on direct ordering when you’re ready (a 0% Kitch take-rate on paid direct orders), and lets you review the private proof before paying, that’s what Kitch is for. The honest way to choose is to review the private proof and see if it fits how you actually work.

03

Own your orders

When you want direct ordering, Kitch runs it on the same page as your menu and hours, paid to your own Stripe — so Kitch takes 0% of the direct order; standard payment-processing fees still apply. Use marketplaces for discovery and your page for repeat orders.

Connect Stripe and orders alert your team in the dashboard, with a receipt for the guest.

04

private proof before payment

Kitch private proof is $0 for one location and includes a live page, QR menu, hours, promos, basic Command, and direct ordering. Step up to a paid plan to a 0% Kitch take-rate on paid direct orders. Stripe processing fees still apply and connect your own domain.

A card is required for the 7-day Starter trial; the first subscription charge follows the trial unless canceled, and your page stays the same when you upgrade.

Questions

Get the facts.

Is Kitch a BentoBox alternative?
Kitch is a restaurant-focused live page you update by message. It’s a good alternative for operators who want to keep the menu, hours, and specials current simply — and review the private proof first — rather than manage a full website platform.
Can I use my own domain?
Bring a domain you already own if you want a custom web address. Kitch does not sell or register domains.
Does Kitch do online ordering?
Yes — direct online ordering is included from Kitch Orders for new subscriptions, paid to your own Stripe. Paid plans are commission-free; paid plans carry a 0% Kitch take-rate.
Is it really private proof before payment?
The private proof needs no card. Starter is $49/month.
