QR Ordering for Restaurants — No App, No Hardware, No Commission

Your customers scan a QR code on the table, browse your full menu on their phone, and place orders that go straight to your kitchen. No app downloads. No tablets. No commission per order. Just faster service and happier customers.

HOW IT WORKS

How QR Ordering Works

Three steps. No training needed. Your staff and customers get it on day one.

1

Customer Scans the QR Code

Each table has a unique QR code. The customer opens their phone camera, scans it, and your restaurant's digital menu loads instantly in their browser. No app to install, no sign-up required. Works on every smartphone.

2

They Browse and Order

Customers see your full menu with item images, prices, Veg/Non-Veg tags, and descriptions. They add items to cart, customise options (extra cheese, no onion), and confirm the order. All from their phone, at their own pace.

3

Kitchen Receives the Order

The order appears instantly on your Kitchen Display (KDS) with the table number, items, and special instructions. No miscommunication. No missed orders. Your kitchen starts preparing immediately.

WHY QR ORDERING

Why Restaurants in India Choose QR Ordering

Restaurants across India are switching to QR ordering to cut costs, speed up service, and reduce errors. Here is why.

Faster Table Turnover

Customers order the moment they sit down. No waiting for a waiter to bring the menu, take the order, or relay it to the kitchen. Average order time drops from 8-12 minutes to under 2 minutes. That is 3-4 extra table turns per day during peak hours.

Zero Order Errors

No more "I said paneer, not chicken" moments. Customers select items themselves, add notes, and confirm before submitting. The order reaches the kitchen exactly as placed. Fewer complaints, fewer re-makes, less food waste.

No Commission, Flat Pricing

Aggregator platforms charge 20-30% per order. Servly charges a flat monthly fee starting at ₹599/month. No commission, no per-scan fee, no revenue sharing. Your margins stay yours. The math works even for a 20-cover restaurant.

Better Customer Experience

Customers browse the menu at their own pace, see item images, check Veg/Non-Veg/Jain/Vegan tags, and order without flagging down a waiter. Especially valuable during peak hours when staff is stretched thin. Younger diners expect it.

QR Ordering for Every Restaurant Type

Whether you run a fine-dining restaurant or a cloud kitchen, Servly adapts to your workflow.

Dine-in Restaurants

Unique QR per table. Customers order independently, reducing waiter dependency. Perfect for family restaurants, thali joints, and multi-cuisine outlets across India.

QSR & Fast Food

Speed is everything. Customers scan at the counter or table, place orders instantly, and skip the queue. Ideal for burger chains, pizza outlets, chaat counters, and street food brands scaling up.

Cafes & Bakeries

Display your pastries and beverages with images. Customers browse the full menu with prices while sipping their coffee. Great for cafes where the counter display only shows a fraction of the menu.

Cloud Kitchens

No physical menu needed. Share your QR code link on WhatsApp, Instagram, or your shopfront. Customers order directly. Works perfectly for delivery-first brands and tiffin services building their own ordering channel.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from restaurant owners evaluating QR ordering for their business.

Do customers need to download an app for QR ordering?
No. Customers scan the QR code with their phone camera and the menu opens in their browser. No app download required. It works on any smartphone with a camera and a web browser — Android or iPhone.
How do I get QR codes for my tables?
Servly generates printable QR codes for each table instantly after setup. You can print them yourself on regular paper, get them laminated, or use table tent cards. Each QR code is unique to a table number so the kitchen knows exactly where to send the food.
Does QR ordering work without internet at the restaurant?
The customer needs mobile data or WiFi to load the menu. Your kitchen display needs a stable internet connection. Servly works on any device with a browser. We recommend having a basic broadband connection at the restaurant for the KDS — a 10 Mbps plan is more than enough.
Can I customise the QR menu with my restaurant's branding?
Yes. You can add your restaurant name, logo, categories, item images, and dietary tags (Veg/Non-Veg/Jain/Vegan). The menu is fully customisable from your Servly dashboard. You can update items, prices, and availability in real-time — no developer needed.
How much does QR ordering cost with Servly?
QR ordering is included in all Servly plans starting at ₹599/month. No commission on orders, no per-scan fee, no hidden charges. You get unlimited QR scans, unlimited orders, and the full kitchen display system included. See all plans and pricing.
