For vegan restaurants

The ordering system for vegan restaurants

Vegan guests expect complete transparency: which ingredients, which production method, which additives. At the same time, a vegan restaurant has to run profitably, with attractive lunch deals under €10 and regulars who come back weekly. GastroSystem gives you the tools for both.

What vegan restaurant owners know well

  • Every guest checks the ingredient list

    Honey, gelatine, casein, lactose in additives — vegan guests read every ingredient. If the menu doesn't make this transparent, guests ask, and every query takes staff time that isn't available during rush hour.

  • Cross-contamination concerns drive away guests

    Is the fryer shared with non-vegan products? Are the sauces produced on equipment that also processes dairy? Without clear labelling, guests with strict requirements will order elsewhere.

  • Vegan certifications are not visible online

    V-Label, ProVeg, organic certification — many vegan restaurants hold certifications that are simply not visible on Lieferando or Wolt. Guests who actively seek certified businesses can't find this information.

  • Ethical story gets lost on platforms

    The story behind a vegan restaurant — the philosophy, the suppliers, the sustainability commitment — is invisible on third-party platforms. A direct ordering channel tells this story and turns it into a competitive advantage.

How GastroSystem helps vegan restaurants

Full ingredient and allergen transparency

Tag every dish with all 14 allergens, additives and ingredient details. Mark items as '100% vegan', 'may contain traces of' or 'prepared on shared equipment'. Guests see this directly in the ordering app and can filter by their requirements. This eliminates the most common queries and builds trust with demanding guests.

Certification and values on your ordering page

Upload your V-Label, ProVeg certification or organic seal — it appears on your restaurant page and on every tagged item. Your sourcing story, your suppliers, your sustainability commitment are all visible to guests before they order.

Direct ordering channel with your identity

Your own ordering page with your name, your photos and your values. No Lieferando layout, no comparison with non-vegan competitors. Guests who specifically search for vegan find you directly — and stay.

Loyalty and community building

Stamp cards or bonus points for regular guests. A newsletter sent directly through GastroSystem informs your community about new dishes, seasonal offers and events — without third-party provider costs.

What vegan restaurants gain

A vegan restaurant with 50 guests/day at an average ticket of €11 turns over around €13,200/month. At 25% through a delivery platform, that costs €1,100 in commission. With GastroSystem, the same volume costs a €99 flat rate. The direct channel also allows you to present certifications and values — which drives higher conversion among guests who specifically seek out vegan options.

Common questions for vegan restaurants

Can I label dishes with a vegan certification?

Yes. You assign labels to every dish: vegan, vegetarian, raw, gluten-free, lactose-free. Labels appear as icons in the ordering app and can be used as filters. Guests only see dishes with the labels they select.

How do I manage allergens for many similar dishes efficiently?

With allergen templates: set up an allergen profile for, say, all soy protein dishes and assign it as a template. Change the template, and every assigned dish updates automatically.

Can I offer a lunch subscription for regulars?

There's no subscription to buy. What works: assign a regular a voucher with a limit per customer, for example for the next ten lunch dishes. Only they can redeem it, and the counter shows you how many times they've used it.
