Restaurants: how to overcome a crisis with Mobee

This article was born in the difficult months of the health emergency, when takeaway became a lifeline for many restaurants and pizzerias. The causes of a "crisis" change over time — back then it was lockdowns, today it's margins eroded by commissions and dependence on a handful of channels — but the lever to get out of it has stayed the same: bring more orders directly to the business, with no cut left with a middleman.

More visibility and more direct orders

The most solid way to weather difficult periods is to have a channel where orders arrive to you, not to a platform. With Mobee you get your own online storefront: customers browse the menu and order takeaway and delivery from their phone, and can book a table when the dining room reopens. The page carries your logo and your name, with menu and photos you update in real time.

Mobee helps you manage your restaurant or pizzeria

Orders arrive in a single list, already written out by the customer: no orders rushed down over the phone, no slips of paper. You manage the content in total autonomy — menu, prices, photos, promotions — and change it in seconds when needed. Many restaurant owners use exactly this to grow orders even through difficult periods, gradually shifting customers to the channel where the margin stays entirely theirs.

The difference that matters: on direct orders you pay no commission, and customers who order become yours — contacts and history stay with the business, ready to be reached out to with a notification or a promotion. We also cover this in how to increase takeaway and delivery orders.

How Mobee works

The customer always has up-to-date prices, menu and promotions in view. The order is confirmed after identity verification by email or SMS.

  • Updated feed with last-minute offers and current promotions.
  • Menu by category and order history, easy to check.
  • Cart with online payment, on delivery, or on the spot for table bookings.
  • No commission on the order (with online payments, only the payment provider's fees are still due, same as with a POS).

How to get started

There's nothing for your customers to download: the online storefront opens from a link or QR code. You import the menu from a photo and the AI copies out dishes, prices and descriptions — see how. Start with the free plan: create your own site with the first 20 orders a month free, no commission on the order and no credit card required.
