onlinemenu.co.nz · Built in the Wairarapa, New Zealand
For Wairarapa cafes and food spots: table ordering your customers scan and tap, orders straight to the kitchen, on a system you own and control.
OnlineMenu is a done-for-you ordering system built for New Zealand cafes and food venues. Your customers open your menu on their phone, browse, and place their order. No app to download, no queue at the counter, and nobody hand writing orders.
The order lands on a screen at the counter or in the kitchen the moment it is placed. Your team makes it. The customer picks it up or it comes to them. That is the whole loop.
It runs on any phone and needs no special hardware. It is built and working now, and we are bringing on our first Wairarapa venues.
A small sign or sticker on the table or counter. They point their phone camera at it. No app, no download.
Your full menu appears on their phone. They choose what they want and tap order. About thirty seconds.
It appears on your screen or tablet straight away. No mishearing, no scribbled tickets.
You call their name when it is ready. Fewer people stacked at the counter, faster turnaround.
Neighbourly, the neighbourhood site owned by Stuff, pauses from 23 September for a rebuild, with no set date to return. For a lot of Wairarapa cafes that was one of the ways locals kept up with you, your specials, your hours, your news.
When a channel like that switches off, the lesson is worth taking: the places you reach your customers through are not yours, and they can go quiet without warning. Your own ordering page is different. It is yours, it stays up, and it gives your regulars something better than a feed, a fast way to order and pay that you control.
You own it. Your menu, your QR code, your customer orders. Nobody can pause it, rebrand it or switch it off but you.
People order from the table or the footpath instead of stacking up at the counter. Your team makes coffee instead of taking orders.
Customers scan and order in the browser. Nothing to install, no account to create. Works on any phone.
Every order reads exactly as the customer placed it. No mishearing an oat flat white as an almond latte on a busy Saturday.
One flat monthly price. No cut of every order like the big delivery apps take, no per order fees.
OnlineMenu normally starts at $59 per month for a single venue, plus a one-off $195 launch that covers us building your menu, producing your branded starter pack, and getting you live. No commissions, no per order fees, no hidden charges.
Run it with real customers for a month at no cost. No card up front, no contract, cancel any time.
After the trial, if you keep it: a one-off $195 launch and $59 per month. That is all.
Aroha Cafe is a working demo built on the real OnlineMenu platform. Place a test order and see the whole flow, menu to confirmation, before you commit to anything.
Text or email us a photo of your menu and we will build it and get you live, usually the same day. No cost to try it for the first 30 days.
