Menuthere vs Foodhub
Foodhub for Business is a UK company that gives takeaways and restaurants a branded ordering website and app, plus EPOS, kiosks, card machines, a delivery driver app and a listing on its own Foodhub marketplace app. It sells mainly to takeaways in the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, the US and Canada, through a sales call or demo. Prices are quote only: its UK terms charge a weekly rental and a one-off setup fee, on a contract that rolls over every 12 months after a short first period.
Price
Foodhub: Quote only
Menuthere: Free plan · from $9/mo
Commission per order
Foodhub: Not clearly published. The online-ordering FAQ says there is 'no commission on your own orders' and the POS FAQ says 'no commission on orders', but the same online-ordering page promises 'lower commission fees', and the retailer terms list transaction fees set in each order form. In October 2025 RTÉ reported that Foodhub charges a fixed weekly fee rather than a percentage of the order value.
Menuthere: 0%
Contract
Foodhub: Rolls over every 12 months after a first period. Clause 5 of the website terms dated 27 March 2026 sets that period at 8 weeks (clause 6.12 of the same terms calls it four months); the retailer terms PDF sets it at 4 months. To cancel under the website terms, you give 30 days' written notice ending on the last day of the period, return the equipment and pay any balance (the retailer terms PDF asks for 30 business days' notice). If you don't return equipment under two years old, the fee is £500.
Menuthere: Month to month
Setup fee
Foodhub: Yes, a one-off setup fee set on the agreement form (amount not published). The website terms say Foodhub repays it if the restaurant cancels in the first period. The retailer terms PDF says it is non-refundable.
Menuthere: None
