Leeds · West Yorkshire

Online ordering for Leeds restaurants, including the Headingley rush.

Leeds takeaway trade bends around the universities and then around everyone else. Headingley and Hyde Park are busy in term, and quieter when the students leave. The city centre wants collection. Neighbourhoods further out still expect a driver. A commission percentage is painful in the busy weeks and still painful in the quiet ones. A flat monthly fee is the same number in July as in October.

Term time is a volume swing, not a different business

Kitchens around Headingley and Hyde Park know the calendar. Order volume climbs in term and drops when the houses empty. Marketplace fees follow the volume down and up. Chefzi does not. After three free months you pay £19 a month for cash or no-card payments, or £29 a month with online card payments through Stripe per location, excluding VAT, including in a quiet July. The free months are there so you can run a real week, ideally a busy one and a quieter one, before a payment is due. Cancel before the free months end and you pay nothing. There is no setup fee and no commission on the order.

Slots instead of a pile of ASAP tickets

The after-lecture rush and the city-centre lunch rush have the same shape: too many tickets with no time on them. Let people pick a slot. You set the lead time and the cut-off. The kitchen sees the slot on the app instead of a stack that all says as soon as possible. Collection can stay open when delivery is paused. That is useful in the city centre, where the customer is often closer than a driver would be.

One menu for collection, delivery and the table

The same dishes can be offered for collection, for delivery, or on a QR code at the table. You can switch an item off for one channel when you are out of it, instead of taking the order and refunding it. Allergens and the prices stay your responsibility. The page is generated from the menu and can be edited afterwards: photos, hours and the words on the sections.

Leaving GloriaFood before the published date

If the site or the Google button still points at GloriaFood, the published retirement date is 30 April 2027. Send the menu export, screenshots of every category, or the public ordering link, plus the zones and the hours. Chefzi rebuilds it. You then place a test order before you tell customers. Update the website, the Google profile, Instagram, Facebook and any QR code in the window. The step-by-step list is on the migration guide. Until that date you can run the old button and the new one together.
