Best Online Ordering Platforms for UK Restaurants & Takeaways
The short answer: Marketplaces (Deliveroo, Uber Eats, Just Eat) buy you demand at 20–35% commission; direct platforms keep margin yours for a flat fee. The 2026 consensus: Flipdish is the strongest all-round direct ordering system (~£99/month), Slerp the premium independent's choice, and Foodhub the 0%-commission marketplace alternative. Most successful venues run marketplace + direct in parallel and push repeat customers direct.
