KitchenBot vs Menufy

Your diners pay the fees. Your kitchen still rekeys the ticket.

Menufy got you online at low cost by passing fees to diners. KitchenBot removes both frictions: no diner fees, and orders that fire straight to a kitchen printer or KDS.

What $10K/mo in online orders actually costs

KitchenBot

$380

All-in — ordering, KDS, backup POS, and card processing at 2.5% + $0.10.

Menufy

≈$410/mo

What your diners cover in checkout fees — roughly 2.9% + $0.30 added to every order

Zero diner fees. Zero rekeying.

Your diners pay the fee. Your repeat visits pay for it.

A fair look at both

Menufy earned its place. Here's what it does well — and where the day-to-day gap is for a working kitchen.

What Menufy does well

  • Low-cost entry — diner-funded fees mean little to no monthly bill for the restaurant
  • Simple setup that got thousands of independents taking online orders
  • Now part of HungerRush, with a POS upgrade path inside that ecosystem

Where KitchenBot is different

Diners carry the cost

Fees added at checkout quietly tax your regulars and depress ticket sizes and repeat orders.

Orders arrive on a tablet, by email, or by fax

Unless you adopt the HungerRush POS, orders don't flow into your system — staff rekey them while the line stacks up.

The upgrade path is their POS

Deeper integration means moving to HungerRush 360. KitchenBot integrates on Clover — the platform behind 700,000+ businesses.

Fair questions

My Menufy costs me almost nothing. Why switch?

Your diners are paying instead — checkout fees suppress order frequency and ticket size. KitchenBot removes diner fees and typically still costs less than what those lost orders were worth.

Will my diners notice the change?

Only positively. Same Order Online buttons on your site and Google profile, no more added fees at checkout, and faster, more accurate orders.

Do I have to change my POS?

KitchenBot runs on Clover. If you're on Clover already, we plug in. If not, the switch includes a Clover Mini or Flex, and we migrate your menu for you.
