A restaurant-first 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.
Kitch uses the restaurant context it already has and moves supported work forward with approval where needed.
Built for restaurant people, not software people.
Restaurants, cafés, and bars comparing website builders with online ordering who want something built for restaurant change rather than a general store builder.
The work is already happening.
A general website builder with online ordering can build a store, but a restaurant’s real job is keeping the menu, hours, and specials true during service. With a generic builder you still log in and do the editing yourself, every time something changes.
Start with what changed.
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 — updated by telling Kitch what changed, in plain words.
You can see the private proof with no card before choosing a paid plan.
How Kitch compares
Square Online is a general-purpose website builder with online ordering, part of the Square ecosystem. Kitch is restaurant-specific: the live menu, hours, promos, QR, and direct orders, updated by message instead of editing a site yourself.
If you’re already running Square’s point-of-sale and want ordering tied into it, Square Online integrates there. 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 starts with a private proof, that’s what Kitch is built for. The honest way to choose is to review the private proof and see which fits how you work.
Built for restaurant change
Kitch ships restaurant modules out of the box — menu with availability toggles, hours, promos, QR, and link-in-bio — so the common updates are one message, not a site edit. The QR you print never changes; the page behind it does.
The result behaves like an operating tool, not a generic website you have to maintain.
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.
The rest of the restaurant is here too.
Start with the job that hurts today. Kitch keeps the restaurant context with you when the next job shows up.
