How a restaurant in Qatar can take orders direct on WhatsApp
Give your regulars your menu as a page that opens from the chat. They choose the dishes and their options, the order lands on one screen with one person on it, and each customer is told when the order is ready for collection. Office lunches can go on an account the office settles later.
What we would set up
The same hour, today and with ALYR
Today’s chats as they pile up, and the same customers as ALYR keeps them. Move the fold, or press Today or With ALYR.
Your day today
- At lunch, orders arrive by call, chat and voice note at once, and end up on paper.
- “I’m outside, is it ready?”
- An office orders lunch for 14 on its tab, and the tab lives in a notebook.
- Regulars who would order from you direct go through an app that takes its share.

Questions
Should I leave the delivery apps?
No. Keep them for customers who find you there. Regulars who already message you can order direct from your menu page, and ALYR takes no cut of those orders.
Can customers ask for delivery?
The order page can offer delivery areas with a fee and a minimum order, once we switch it on for you. ALYR does not track drivers or show a map: your team marks the order complete.
What happens when a dish runs out at 1 pm?
Your staff can send “sold out” and the dish’s name from their phone, and the menu page shows Sold out at once. “back” turns it on again.
Can customers book a table?
Not yet. ALYR takes orders for collection and, once switched on, for delivery. Table bookings are not in ALYR.
