Ranked by published price, checked 26 October 2026
Best online ordering system for restaurants in the UK: ranked by published price
Method: every UK vendor in the price index is ranked by the monthly price it publishes on its own website, lowest first, with the published card or per-order fee shown beside it and "not published" where the vendor states none. Vendors with no published monthly price in pounds are listed separately as quote only, and vendors whose sites could not be fetched are listed as could not be checked. Nothing is estimated or converted, "from" is kept where the vendor says from, and every row carries its source link and the date it was checked (26 October 2026). "Best" here means cheapest on the published monthly price and nothing else.
The rows are the UK rows of the restaurant ordering software price index (a dated dataset, also available as CSV); the ranking is computed from them on every build, so a corrected row moves in the table.
Best online ordering system for restaurants UK, ranked
Every UK vendor in the index with a monthly price in pounds on its own page, lowest first. The price cell shows the figure, the plan it belongs to and the vendor's own wording, so a till licence or a website-only plan is visible as such.
Short answer: ranked by the monthly price each vendor publishes, the three cheapest online ordering systems for UK restaurants on 26 October 2026 are Square Online UK (£0 a month, Free), Storekit (£0 a month, Starter) and Chefzi (£9 a month, Cash or no card). Aexir sits at number 6 of 16 at £30 a month, Web, where the same rule puts it; it publishes this page and gets no treatment beyond a "publisher of this page" badge.

What the price does not tell you
The monthly price is the only thing this page ranks on, because it is the only figure most vendors publish in a comparable form. Four other costs decide what a month really costs, and the columns beside the price carry what each vendor says about them.
- Card fees
- The monthly price excludes card processing. Of the 16 ranked vendors, 6 publish a card rate on their own pages; the rest say "not published", which usually means the rate is set in a contract or quoted on your card turnover. Aexir's published rate is 2.5% + 30p per card transaction ex VAT (aexir.com/pricing, checked 26 October 2026). Work a month of your own orders through the rate before comparing headline prices.
- Per-order fees
- Some vendors add a flat or percentage fee per order on top of the subscription, and some state that a fee exists without publishing the amount. 11 of the 16 ranked vendors say something about it on their own pages (a figure, that there is none, or that a fee exists without the amount); the others say "not published". A £0 monthly plan with a per-order fee can cost more than a priced plan without one.
- Contract length
- A low monthly price on a 12-month auto-renewing term with a notice period costs more to leave than a higher price billed monthly. 12 of the 16 ranked vendors publish a term, notice period or "cancel any time" wording on their own pages; "not published" means the term sits only in a contract you have not yet seen. Aexir bills monthly at the published price and its minimum term is not published on the price list, so its row says so.
- Whether a native app is included
- "Branded native app" is Yes only where the vendor states an iOS and Android app published under the restaurant's own name; Add-on means it is priced separately or on a higher plan; Not stated means the pages do not say. A web page saved to the home screen is not a native app. 3 of the 16 ranked vendors state Yes, and the cheapest plan in the price cell is not always the one that includes the app.
- What the cheapest plan actually includes
- The ranked figure is the first monthly price in pounds on the vendor's page. For a till vendor that can be the till licence with online ordering sold as an add-on, and for a website builder it can be a plan without ordering at all; where a price is "from", the figure is the floor. Read the plan label and the vendor wording in the price cell, and the VAT note, before comparing two rows.

Questions about this ranking
Each UK row of the Aexir price index is read for the first monthly price in pounds that the vendor publishes on its own website (a plan priced "Free per month" counts as £0, "from" is kept where the vendor says from), and the rows are sorted by that figure, lowest first, ties alphabetical. 16 vendors carry such a figure and are ranked; 11 publish no monthly price in pounds and are listed separately as quote only; 1 could not be fetched on 26 October 2026 and are listed as could not be checked. Nothing is estimated, converted from another currency or taken from a third-party site.
Aexir publishes this page and sells one of the products in it, so its row is held to the same rule as every other: the first monthly price in pounds on aexir.com/pricing, which is £30 a month, Web, puts it at number 6 of 16 in the main ranking and number 5 of 14 in the takeaway ranking. Its only special treatment is a "publisher of this page" badge. Aexir's plans are Web £30, Starter £30, Plus £40 and Pro £50 a month ex VAT, with card payments at 2.5% + 30p, a flat monthly fee at published prices.
Because their own pages publish no monthly price in pounds. That covers vendors who sell by quote only, vendors who price per week or per day (the page does not multiply a weekly price into a monthly one, because the vendor has not published that figure), and vendors who publish prices only in US dollars (nothing is converted). They are listed below the tables with the vendor's own wording, so a reader can see exactly what each one does publish.
No. "Best" on this page means cheapest on the published monthly price, and the page says so in its first paragraph. It does not rate features, support, reliability or ease of use, it carries no review scores, awards or testimonials, and it does not say which system is right for a given restaurant. The columns beside the price (card or per-order fee, contract, branded native app, ordering website, POS) are there so you can weigh the things the price leaves out.
Every row shows the date it was checked against the vendor's own page (26 October 2026 for this pass), and the ranking is recomputed from the index on every build, so a corrected row moves in the table. Treat a figure as current only to its own date and confirm with the vendor before signing. To correct a row, send the URL of the vendor's own page that shows the figure through the contact page; third-party pages are not accepted as a source, for any vendor, including Aexir.
