Case study
Uff un menú
Digital menus, ordering, payments and loyalty cards for restaurants and cafés.
Context
The PDF menu taped behind a QR code solved one problem in 2020 and created another: changing a price means re-exporting, re-uploading and reprinting the code.
Uff un menú is our micro-SaaS for restaurants, cafés, matcha bars and ice cream shops. The premise is simple: the menu updates in under five seconds, the order lands where it needs to land, and the platform doesn't take a cut.
The challenge
- PDF menus nobody updates, because updating them is work.
- Orders getting lost between the table and the kitchen.
- Per-order commissions charged by third-party apps.
- Businesses with more than one location, and dishes with modifiers and variants.
