Wix for restaurants
Wix for restaurants: a fair look at Wix Restaurants
Wix has a proper restaurant ordering app. Wix Restaurants Orders takes pickup, delivery and dine-in by QR, with modifiers and scheduled orders. You need a paid plan to take orders, and Wix's own help pages list a few limits worth knowing.
Free plan: 50 orders a month, 0% commission, no card needed.
Free plan, 50 orders a month, 0% commission. Paid plans from US$17 a month.
The short answer
Wix is closer to a restaurant system than most builders
Unlike a general online store, Wix offers a restaurant app of its own. Wix Restaurants Orders is free to install and available worldwide. It takes pickup, delivery and dine-in orders, including QR code ordering for dine-in, and supports modifiers with extra charges, scheduled orders and menus with their own hours.
The catch is mostly in the setup and the details. Wix says you must upgrade your site to accept online orders and payments, and Wix shows its plans as yearly subscriptions. Delivery can't be priced by distance. Automatic printing goes to printers with their own email address. Allergens are free-text labels rather than a fixed list.
If you want a designed website and are happy to build it, Wix is a reasonable choice. If you want ordering running today from a menu photo, with kitchen tickets and a free plan to start, a restaurant ordering system is quicker.

The gaps, from Wix's own pages
Where a restaurant works around Wix
A paid plan to take orders
"You need to upgrade your site to accept online orders and payments." Only Core, Business and Business Elite list accepting payments, and Wix shows its prices as yearly subscriptions.
No distance-based delivery fee
Each delivery area has a fixed fee. Wix's help page says distance-based fees aren't possible today, so far drops need more areas.
Kitchen printing
Printing from the dashboard works with a thermal printer. Automatic printing needs a printer with its own email address, and those orders print on A4.
The counter
Wix's POS Register can only sell Wix Stores products or Wix Bookings services; restaurants use a phone as the point of sale with the Orders app.
Allergens
Menus support labels such as Vegan, Gluten Free and Spicy, and your own. There is no fixed list of the 14 allergens or a calorie field in Wix's menu help.
Payments and couriers by country
Wix Payments works in 15 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Brazil and much of Europe; elsewhere you use a third-party provider. DoorDash Drive delivery is US only.
Fair to Wix: tips at checkout, a loyalty program that awards points per dollar spent (on a plan that accepts payments) and a free Table Reservations app that takes bookings from Google Search and Maps are all built by Wix.
Wix and Menuthere side by side
What each one costs and includes
Wix prices its plans by country and shows them billed yearly, so check the price for your country on Wix's plans page. Menuthere's prices are monthly, in US dollars.
| Wix with Restaurants Orders | Menuthere | |
|---|---|---|
| To take your first order | A plan that accepts payments: Core or higher, at your country's price, billed yearly | Free plan: US$0, 50 orders a month, paid at pickup or on delivery |
| Online payments | On Core and up, with Wix Payments in 15 countries or a third-party provider | From Lite, US$17 a month, through your own payment gateway |
| Building the site | You design and build the Wix site, then add the apps | Made from a photo or PDF of your menu, ready to share |
| Delivery fee by distance | Not possible today | From Lite |
| Kitchen tickets | Thermal from the dashboard; automatic by email, on A4 | Kitchen tickets on every plan, printing automatically when the dashboard is open |
| Allergens and calories | Free-text labels | The 14 allergens, kcal and halal on each dish, every plan |
| Your own riders, live tracking | Not in the Orders app's help pages; DoorDash Drive in the US | Pro, US$39 a month |
| WhatsApp order updates | Not in the Orders app's help pages | From your own number on Pro |
| Commission | Wix's pages state card fees, such as 2.9% + US$0.30 in the US | 0% commission; your gateway's card fees only |
Wix Payments' US card rate is 2.9% + US$0.30 and its UK rate 2.1% + £0.20 (excluding American Express), from Wix's fees page. Menuthere's yearly billing charges 10 months for 12.
When Wix is the better choice
Wix makes sense when the website is the project
You want a designed brand site with a gallery, events, a blog and a menu, and you're happy to build it. Wix's editor is made for that, and ordering sits inside it.
You already pay for Wix on a plan that accepts payments. Adding Wix Restaurants Orders costs nothing extra to install.
Use both: keep your Wix site for the brand and add an Order online button that opens your Menuthere ordering page, if you want kitchen tickets, distance fees, riders or WhatsApp updates without rebuilding the site.
