Catering Module

Dedicated catering menu with advance scheduling for large orders.

Catering orders are fundamentally different from everyday takeout. They involve larger quantities, advance lead times, and menu items that may not appear on your regular ordering page. The Catering Module gives you a dedicated catering experience that is separate from your standard menu, purpose-built for the way large orders actually work.

Set up a distinct catering menu with items sized for groups -- full trays, boxed lunches, beverage packages, and more. Apply catering-specific modifiers such as serving utensils, chafing dishes, or dietary labels that do not belong on your everyday menu. Minimum order amounts ensure that catering orders meet the threshold needed to justify the preparation time, and advance scheduling lets customers book days or weeks ahead so your kitchen can plan accordingly.

For restaurants that already do catering through phone calls and email chains, this module moves the process online where customers can browse options, customize their order, and submit payment -- all without tying up your staff. The result is a more professional catering experience that captures revenue you might otherwise lose to competitors with slicker ordering workflows.
