Is GloriaFood good for modern restaurants?

GloriaFood handles online ordering well, but its QR experience and reporting feel dated. A restaurant that wants real menu analytics, table ordering and reservations will hit its limits quickly.

Can I take orders directly from the table?

Yes. Table ordering is included: the guest orders from their seat and the kitchen receives it directly. No app for the guest, no trips across the room mid-rush.

Does Scanqur replace my whole ordering setup?

For most restaurants, yes. QR menu, table ordering, reservations and analytics live in one tool, which usually replaces two or three separate subscriptions.

Is Scanqur really free?

The free plan has no time limit: a full QR menu, orders and booking requests by WhatsApp, table QR codes and statistics, with no card required. Pro adds orders and bookings managed in your dashboard, a custom web address and all menu designs, and new accounts can try it for 14 days.

Built for restaurants that want to grow

The honest part

Why restaurants outgrow GloriaFood

GloriaFood does one job well. The friction shows up once you want more than a takeout widget.

Thin reporting

You can see orders. Seeing what guests browse, skip, and reorder is a different game, and that is the data that actually shapes a menu.

Delivery-first, dine-in second

GloriaFood was built around takeout and delivery. If most of your revenue happens at the table, the product is working against your real use case.

A product with an end date

Oracle has announced that the whole GloriaFood product line, ordering and table reservations included, goes offline on April 30, 2027, with no successor. Every month you stay is a month closer to a forced migration.

A QR experience stuck in 2019

Scan to open a PDF-style menu is table stakes now. A modern QR menu orders, switches language, and updates live.

Worth reading first

Choosing a restaurant ordering system that scales

A QR ordering system without the app

A good QR ordering system asks nothing of your guest: no download, no account. They scan, they order, the kitchen receives it. That frictionless path is exactly what separates Scanqur from a delivery-oriented GloriaFood.

Table ordering is where the margin is

Delivery marketplaces take a cut of every order. Table ordering keeps the guest, the data, and the margin with you. If you are picking a restaurant ordering system for the next three years, weigh that carefully.

One tool beats a stack of three

Menu here, reservations there, analytics somewhere else: every extra tool is another login, another bill, another thing that breaks. A modern restaurant tech setup is fewer tools doing more, not more tools doing less.

Mobile-first, because that is where your guests are

Your guests browse your menu on a phone, held at the table. A menu designed for desktop first will always feel a step behind. Scanqur is built for the 390px screen first, the desktop second.
