GloriaFood alternatives for UK takeaways (2027 guide)

GloriaFood, the free ordering widget owned by Oracle, will be retired on 30 April 2027, and it has already stopped accepting new restaurants. For a UK takeaway the alternatives fall into four groups: ordering platforms that give you a branded website and app, low-cost ordering widgets, systems linked to a marketplace, and complete takeaway systems that run your website, counter and kitchen on one menu. Which one suits you depends on one question: do you only need online orders, or do you want the whole shop on the same system?

What stops working on 30 April 2027

Everything that points at GloriaFood stops taking orders on the same day, so the damage is wider than the ordering button on your website:

• The “See MENU & Order” button on your website, and any website GloriaFood hosts for you.
• Ordering links on your Facebook page, Instagram bio and Google Business Profile.
• QR codes on menus, flyers, bags and stickers.
• Your listing in the FoodBooking app, which many regulars use to reorder.
• Your customer list, order history and delivery zones, unless you export them first.

Do not plan around the last week. Easter Sunday 2027 is 28 March, so if you want to be settled on a new system before a busy weekend, aim to be live by mid-March and keep GloriaFood running alongside for a few weeks while regulars move across.

The four kinds of GloriaFood alternative

• Ordering platforms with a branded website and app, such as Flipdish and Slerp. Built around direct ordering, apps and marketing. Both advertise free migration from GloriaFood on their own sites. Pricing is usually through a demo, or a plan with a monthly fee and transaction costs. Ask whether a till and kitchen screens are included or extra.
• Low-cost ordering widgets, such as Storekit. The closest thing to GloriaFood’s model: an ordering button and page with a low or free starting plan and a per-order fee. Suits a quiet shop that only wants a replacement button.
• Marketplace-linked systems, such as Foodhub, which pairs its consumer ordering app with branded websites, apps and kiosks for the shop. Check how orders through the marketplace app are charged, who holds the customer data and how long the agreement runs.
• Complete takeaway systems, such as MyFoodFast, where the ordering website, branded app, POS, kitchen screens and kiosks all run from one menu. Suits takeaways that want online and counter orders in one place and do not want to update prices in three systems.

What they charge (published prices, checked 9 November 2026)

• Flipdish (flipdish.com/gb/pricing): online ordering from £49 a month per site billed annually, or £69 billed monthly; branded website from £79 a month billed annually, or £99 monthly; POS and online ordering bundle from £119 a month.
• Storekit (storekit.com/pricing): Starter free, Grow £99 a month, Pro £199 a month, with kiosks and app add-ons extra. Storekit says there is no commission on any plan and plans are rolling monthly up to Pro.
• Slerp: no prices published. Its site describes plans with a monthly fee and a transaction cost, by quote.
• Foodhub: no prices published for its business products. Charges vary by partner type, so ask for a written quote.
• MyFoodFast (myfoodfast.com/pricing): POS from £40 per terminal/month; OrderHub from £20 per screen/month. Your ordering website is included with a base product. 1% MFF on online card orders, plus Stripe processing. Rolling monthly.

Prices change and some exclude VAT or card processing, so check each provider’s current page before you decide. The questions below make the comparison fair.

Eight questions to ask before you sign

• What will I pay in a normal month, all in? Ask for the monthly fee, the per-order or percentage fee, and card processing, then work it out on your real order volume.
• Is there commission on my own website’s orders? Some systems call a percentage a “platform fee”.
• How long is the contract, and what is the notice period? Rolling monthly is safer while you test.
• Who owns my customer list, and can I export it whenever I want?
• Will you import my GloriaFood menu, including sizes, toppings and meal-deal choices, and check it with me before I go live?
• Can you put through my hardest order, my busiest meal deal with changes, and show me exactly what reaches the kitchen?
• Can Just Eat, Uber Eats and Deliveroo orders land on the same screen, so I am not watching four tablets?
• If I start this week, when could I realistically be live?

Where MyFoodFast fits

MyFoodFast is built for UK independent takeaways that want their regulars ordering direct, with no aggregator commission, and the counter and kitchen on the same menu as the website. Change a price or mark an item sold out once, and the website, app, POS and kitchen screens all agree. POS from £40 per terminal/month; OrderHub from £20 per screen/month. Your ordering website is included with a base product. 1% MFF on online card orders, plus Stripe processing. No MFF transaction fee on cash orders through your ordering website. Optional product fees and the customer service fee are separate. Every price is published, and plans are rolling monthly with no minimum term or cancellation fee.

For GloriaFood users, we can import your menu from your live GloriaFood ordering page, including options and modifiers, and check it with you before you go live. Create your account first. Go-live follows menu review, payment setup and any hardware or integration checks; timing depends on your setup.

When another option may suit you better

• You rely on GloriaFood’s table reservations. MyFoodFast does not offer table booking today, so look at a provider that does.
• You take a handful of online orders a week and want nothing but a replacement button. A low-cost widget may cost less.
• Your business is outside the UK. MyFoodFast is built and priced for UK takeaways.

A switching plan that keeps your regulars

• Export your customer list and order history from GloriaFood’s reports now, and note who gave marketing consent.
• Screenshot your delivery zones, fees and minimum orders.
• Pick your new system and have your menu imported and checked.
• Run both side by side for a few weeks, then swap your website button, Facebook and Instagram links, and Google Business Profile link.
• Reprint QR menus and stickers with the new link before you switch GloriaFood off.
• Tell regulars where to order now: a message to customers who agreed to hear from you, a note in every bag, and a pinned social post.
