Cliux for restaurants and cafes

Your menu is the ordering page. No commission, ever.

Menu, online ordering for collection and delivery, table reservations and a live kitchen board, on your own site, paid by card into your own Stripe account. The menu screen draws the QR code for you to print.

The kitchen board

Orders land on the board the moment they are paid.

Nine statuses from received to completed, a nudge when a new order arrives, prep time and capacity you set, and a private tracking link for the customer. A paid order you do not accept in time is refunded on its own.

  • A nudge per new order

    The board refreshes itself; you hear the new ticket.

  • Prep time and a pause switch

    Quote a time, cap the active orders, pause with a reason customers see.

  • Refunds through Stripe

    From the ticket, full or partial; a declined order refunds itself.

Reservations

Reservations with rules you set and no double bookings.

Party size limits, slot length, notice and horizon, covers and turn time, optional approval and email verification, and a reminder email before the visit. The list in the console shows who is coming tonight.

  • Covers and turn time

    Slots are offered only where the room has space.

  • Approval and verification

    Confirm by hand if you want to, and ask for a verified email.

  • Reminder emails

    Sent before the visit, from your restaurant's name.

Ordering settings

Collection, delivery zones, hours and cutoffs from one screen.

Switch collection and delivery on or off, take card online or payment on collection, set a minimum order, a last-order cutoff and a cap on active orders, draw delivery zones with a fee and a minimum each, and pause ordering with a reason your customers see.

  • Delivery zones with fees

    A fee and a minimum per zone; addresses outside them cannot order delivery.

  • Card online or pay on collection

    Both, or either; card goes to your own Stripe account.

  • Hours, closures and cutoffs

    Opening hours, closed days, and the last time an order is taken.

Capabilities

What you get

Every capability below is on every plan; building is free and publishing is the plan.

A menu that updates instantly

Categories, items with a photo and a price, allergens, option groups with minimums and maximums, and an "unavailable until" switch; the published page follows within seconds.

A QR code from the menu screen

The console draws the code for your menu address; download the PNG and print it. The address does not change when the menu does.

A live kitchen board

Nine statuses, prep time, capacity, a pause switch and refunds, on a screen made for the pass.

Table reservations

Party size, slots, notice, covers and turn time, approval, verification and reminders.

Enquiry forms

Private events and large orders come in through a form and become contacts.

A customer list

Contacts from orders and forms, with tags and a pipeline if you need one.

No. Card payments go to your own Stripe account and Cliux adds no fee; you can also let customers pay on collection.

Yes. The menu screen in the console draws the code for your menu address; download the PNG and print it. It keeps working after you change the menu, because the address does not change.

Not yet. Reservations take no payment; you can require approval and a verified email instead.

No. Orders are managed on the built-in kitchen board and are not sent to a till.

Not from one site. One restaurant per site today; a second location is a second site.
