Apps That Put Your Restaurant on Every Phone
Florida's restaurant scene is huge. Locals eat out year-round, and millions of visitors are hungry every day. But third-party delivery apps take a big cut of every order, and they keep the customer's name and email for themselves.
Your own app changes that math. Customers order straight from you. You keep the data, reward your regulars and send offers when it's slow.
Mobile App Development Company Florida builds restaurant and food delivery apps for restaurants, bars, cafés, food trucks and delivery startups across the state. We're powered by The App Bros, the Fort Lauderdale studio behind Barmade, an app for ordering drinks and food at venues.

A Food & Drink App We Built: Barmade
Barmade is an easy way to order drinks and food without the hassle. It's available at a range of venues, so guests can order from their phone instead of waiting at the bar. Fewer lines, faster service, and staff who can focus on making drinks.
Why Restaurants Build Their Own Apps
The numbers are simple. Every order through a third-party app costs you a fee. Every order through your own app doesn't. Over a year, that gap can pay for the app.
Your app also gives you a direct line to your regulars. A push message on a slow Tuesday can fill tables. A loyalty program brings people back more often. And because you own the customer list, no platform can take it away or raise your rates. In a tourist state, an app can also win over visitors. A guest who orders from you once on vacation can order again every time they come back.
POS, Payments and Delivery Logistics
Restaurant apps have to fit how your kitchen already works. We plan for:
- POS connections. Orders flowing straight into your point-of-sale and kitchen screens, where your POS allows it.
- Payments and tips. Cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay through a trusted processor.
- Menus that update fast. Sold-out items, specials and price updates from one dashboard.
- Delivery tracking. GPS driver maps, delivery zones and time estimates.
- Busy-hour limits. Pausing orders or setting prep times when the kitchen is slammed.
What a Restaurant App Costs
Pricing depends on whether you need delivery. From App Cost Finder, our free app budget tool:
| App type | Includes | Starting range |
|---|---|---|
| Delivery / GPS app | Ordering, driver tracking, route logic, notifications | $25k – $75k+ |
Starting range, not a final quote. An ordering and loyalty app without your own delivery fleet can cost less.
Services for Restaurant Apps
Diners use every kind of phone, so most restaurant apps are built cross-platform for iPhone and Android on one budget. Cross-platform app development Launching a food delivery startup? Start with a lean first version and grow from there. MVP & startup app development
Restaurant App FAQs
Can the app send orders to our POS?
Many point-of-sale systems offer ways to send in online orders. We check your POS at the consultation and tell you what connects and what doesn't.
Do we need our own delivery drivers?
No. Many restaurant apps offer pickup only, or connect to a delivery service. If you run your own drivers, we can add driver apps and live tracking.
How much does a restaurant app cost?
Delivery apps with driver tracking start around $25k to $75k and up. An ordering and loyalty app without delivery can start lower.
Can the app handle more than one location?
Yes. One app can cover every location, with its own menu, hours, prices and prep times for each. Customers pick the closest spot, and each kitchen only sees its own orders.
