Solution
Order ahead, pick up without waiting
CalcMenu Mobile lets your customers pre-order their meal from their phone, choose their pickup slot, and pay online. The kitchen receives consolidated production per slot and can prepare in advance. Perfect for corporate, universities and events.
Before / after
Your customers lose 20 minutes in the lunch queue. Your kitchen is overwhelmed between 12:00 and 12:30, then calm until 14:00.
Orders are spread across the whole time window. The kitchen produces continuously, without peaks. Customers pick up in 30 seconds.
Why this feature matters
This feature is built directly into the CalcMenu recipe and menu database. The same data serves kitchen, service, and administration—no re-entry, no paper versions.

What it gives you
Chosen pickup slots
The customer chooses their slot (12:00, 12:15, 12:30...) when ordering. CalcMenu limits spots per slot to smooth production.
Profile-personalised menu
CalcMenu automatically filters dishes by the customer's diet, allergens and preferences. They only see what they can eat.
Secure online payment
Credit card, company account or meal vouchers. Payment is confirmed before preparation. Automatic refund on cancellation.
How it works
Scan the QR code
One QR code per table, room or event. The customer scans, sees the day's menu filtered for them, and orders in 3 clicks.
Choose and pay
The customer chooses their dishes, pickup slot, and pays. CalcMenu checks allergens and diets in real time. Instant confirmation by email or notification.
Pick up without queue
At the chosen time, the customer goes to the 'Pre-order' counter or scans their confirmation QR. Their meal is ready, hot, with their name on it. 30 seconds, not 15 minutes.
