More detail
One city, many kitchens
Peterborough's Millfield and Lincoln Road area is home to a wide mix of independent South Asian, Kurdish, Eastern European and Caribbean food businesses, and the newer townships such as Hampton keep adding customers who want delivery. Customers here come from many backgrounds, so a menu has to be easy to understand at a glance.
With Chefzi every dish can have a clear name, a short description and a photo, so someone trying your food for the first time knows what they are getting. Options are simple to set: size, sauce, spice level, sides. Whether you run a grill, a curry house, a Polish deli or a Caribbean kitchen, the same tools fit your menu.
Delivery zones can be drawn for Millfield, Hampton, Orton and Werrington, each with its own fee and minimum order, so longer runs still make sense. Orders ring in the Chefzi Orders app until someone accepts them, and collection can have its own hours.
Compare that with a marketplace taking a percentage of every order: on Chefzi you pay a flat plan and keep the full order value, with 0% commission ever. Plus adds card payments and SMS and email offers, and Pro adds your own branded Android app and EPOS. We get you live in 24–48 hours, max.
Chefzi has three plans, per location, ex VAT, billed annually: Starter £9 a month (£12 monthly) for your ordering website and menu, Plus £19 (£22) adding card payments and SMS and email marketing, and Pro £39 (£49) adding your own branded Android app and EPOS. 0% commission ever, the first month is on us, no credit card required, and we get you live in 24–48 hours, max.

On 10 November 2026 the FSA register listed 201 takeaway and sandwich-shop businesses and 325 restaurants, cafés and canteens in Peterborough, out of 2,026 registered food businesses. The postcode district with the most takeaways was PE1, with 88 (43.8% of the total), followed by PE2 with 44.

That is a lot of kitchens competing for the same customers on the same marketplace apps. A direct ordering page of your own, with 0% commission, is how an independent keeps the repeat customers it already has. See commission-free online ordering and the commission calculator.
