Square Online alternative

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 ready to start for one location.

Private proof first. No account or card before Kitch reads your restaurant.

Starter starts at 49/month in supported local currencies and includes website, menu, QR, direct ordering and Tell Kitch. 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.

Restaurants, cafés, and bars comparing website builders with online ordering who want something built for restaurant change rather than a general store builder.

The problem

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.

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.

It starts with a paid Kitch plan, with no card, so you can see your real page before paying.

02

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 free, that’s what Kitch is built for. The honest way to choose is to try the private restaurant preview and see which fits how you work.

03

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.

04

ready to start

Starter starts at 49/month in supported local currencies and includes website, menu, QR, direct ordering and Tell Kitch. Step up to a paid plan to use direct ordering with a 0% Kitch take-rate and connect your own domain.

No card is required for the private preview, and your page stays the same when you upgrade.

Questions

Is Kitch a Square Online alternative?
Kitch is a restaurant-focused live page you update by message — a good alternative for operators who want restaurant-specific modules and a Kitch onboarding rather than a general website builder.

Does Kitch do online ordering?
Yes — direct ordering is available on paid live plans, paid to your own Stripe. Paid plans are commission-free; paid live plans have a 0% Kitch take-rate.
Is it really ready to start?
