How to make a website for a cloud kitchen

A cloud kitchen has no dining hall, so the website is the only place people can see who is cooking their food. Customers want the menu, whether you deliver to their area, the order timings and a quick way to order directly on WhatsApp.

What people look for on a cloud kitchen website

The menu with prices, portion sizes and how many people a box feeds
The areas or pincodes you deliver to, and the delivery charge or minimum order for each
Order timings: lunch and dinner windows, and the last order time
How to order directly: a WhatsApp number with the menu items written the way you want orders sent
Who runs the kitchen and how the food is packed, since customers can't walk in and see
Bulk and office lunch orders: how many days ahead to ask and the per-box price
If you run more than one food brand from the same kitchen, which brand serves what

The pages your website needs

Home: What you cook, the areas you deliver to, today's order timings and a WhatsApp button to order
Menu: Each dish or meal box with price, portion size, veg or non-veg, and combo boxes for one or two people
Delivery areas: The localities and pincodes you cover, delivery charges, minimum order and the usual delivery time window
Office and bulk orders: Lunch boxes for offices and house parties, per-box prices, minimum quantity and how many days ahead to order
About the kitchen: Who cooks, kitchen photos, the packaging you use and your FSSAI licence number, with WhatsApp and call buttons

Sample words for your home page

Home-style Andhra meals delivered in HSR Layout and Koramangala

Rice bowls, biryani and full meals boxes from ₹149. Lunch orders 11:30 to 3, dinner 7 to 10:30. Order on WhatsApp.

Reddy's Ruchi Kitchen is a delivery-only kitchen in HSR Layout, Bengaluru, run by Lakshmi Reddy and her son since 2021. We cook in small batches, pack in sealed containers, and deliver within our listed areas. Send your order on WhatsApp and we confirm the time.

Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.

How to make it with AppCub, step by step

Decide the pages. Most cloud kitchen websites need these pages: Home, Menu, Delivery areas, Office and bulk orders, About the kitchen.
Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.

Copy this request, change the details to match your cloud kitchen, and paste it into AppCub:

Make a website for my delivery-only cloud kitchen, Reddy's Ruchi Kitchen, in Sector 2, HSR Layout, Bengaluru. Pages: home, menu, delivery areas, office and bulk orders, and about the kitchen. Menu: Andhra meals box ₹199, chicken biryani ₹249, gongura mutton rice bowl ₹269, pappu rice bowl ₹149, curd rice ₹99. We deliver to HSR Layout, Koramangala and BTM Layout; minimum order ₹300. Lunch 11:30 AM to 3 PM, dinner 7 PM to 10:30 PM. Office boxes from 20 people, order two days ahead. Orders on WhatsApp 98XXXXXXXX. Red and yellow colours.

Tips for a cloud kitchen website

List delivery areas by locality name and pincode; customers search for both.
Write a sample WhatsApp order on the menu page, like 'Name, address, items, lunch or dinner', so orders come in complete.
Show your kitchen and packing area in photos. With no dining hall, this is how customers judge cleanliness.
Put your FSSAI licence number on the about page and the same address that is on your licence.
If you have no walk-in counter, say so on the contact details, so nobody drives to the kitchen expecting to sit down.
Add a free Google Business Profile with your delivery areas set as a service area and link the website there.

Good to know

The website can't take orders, payments or check a pincode automatically, and AppCub doesn't connect to Zomato or Swiggy. Customers order on WhatsApp or by phone; for a direct ordering app with online payment, make a cloud kitchen app.
The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.

Questions

Does a cloud kitchen need its own website if it is on delivery apps?

A website gives you a place for your own menu, delivery areas and WhatsApp number, so regulars can order from you directly. It doesn't replace your listings on delivery apps.

Can my website show my Zomato or Swiggy menu automatically?

No. AppCub doesn't connect to Zomato or Swiggy. You write the menu once in the chat, and you update it there when prices change.

Should I show the kitchen address if there is no dine-in?

Show the locality and the address on your FSSAI licence, and say clearly that it is a delivery-only kitchen with no seating.

Can I run two food brands on one website?

Yes. Ask AppCub for a section or page for each brand. With 4 to 6 pages in all, two brands usually share the home and contact pages.

How do customers pay if the website has no payments?

They pay on delivery or by UPI after you confirm the order on WhatsApp. For payment before cooking, a cloud kitchen app with your Razorpay account is the better fit.

Can I put my lunch and dinner order windows on every page?

Yes. Ask for the timings in the header or footer, so customers see the last order time wherever they land.
