Company mission

To create stunning consumer ordering experiences that boost sales and unlock mammoth efficiencies for operators.

Our take

London-based Dines is an all-in-one ordering platform for hospitality businesses that serves to improve customer experience. The company offers a platform for eateries to deploy QR-based mobile ordering, which is considered a more accessible, seamless, and easy way to dine.

To date, Dines has found that its services have resulted in 36% increase in customer spend, 31% faster table turns, and 40% fewer staff to operate, highlighting improved experiences for customers and profitability for businesses

In recent years, the hospitality industry has been transforming at an unprecedented rate and Dines is certainly keeping up with the current needs of the general public, including increased hunger for more efficient, frictionless dining.
