What online ordering means here
Online ordering on these pages is first-party ordering: the restaurant's own website ordering. The guest orders from the restaurant directly, on its website or an ordering page under its name, run by its POS vendor (Toast Online Ordering, Square Online) or an ordering vendor (Slice, Owner.com, ChowNow).
It is not a delivery marketplace. On Uber Eats, DoorDash or Grubhub the restaurant is one listing in the app, under the app's brand and next to its competitors; those listings are on restaurant delivery platforms.
| Online ordering (first party) | Delivery marketplace (aggregator) | |
|---|---|---|
| Where the guest orders | The restaurant's website or ordering page | The marketplace app |
| Whose brand the guest sees | The restaurant's | The marketplace's |
| Who holds the guest relationship | The restaurant | The marketplace |
| Examples | Toast Online Ordering, Slice, Owner.com | Uber Eats, DoorDash, Grubhub |
One grey zone: a storefront a marketplace runs under the restaurant's name (DoorDash Storefront, Grubhub Direct). The guest orders on the restaurant's own page, so it counts here, kept apart from ordering software the restaurant runs.
Order buttons on Google listings link many places to a marketplace storefront, so we show two readings: seen (any evidence) and confirmed in use (an ordering page that takes orders). A venue with its own ordering is a more digital operator, and usually a better fit for integrations, promotions and payments.
