A free, five-page website that adapts to fit your content
Chip Shop sites give you space to add only the details you want.
Our software takes whatever details you choose to add to your site, and make sure they always display well, on any device with any screen size.
Chip Shop sites are mini-websites that will automatically be displayed over five different pages (Home, About, Menu, Photos, Contact). You can even enable online ordering for your site. If you choose not to add some information, the layout adapts, resizing content or removing pages as required. You can add, delete or change any of the information at any time, through our easy to use interface.
Chip Shop is a completely free service, meaning you can keep all of your information completely up to date.

Get started hereEnable online ordering on your site
With Chip Shop, you can setup online ordering in seconds.
Customers often expect online ordering, and it can save you time too.
With online ordering enabled, customers can place an order directly on the menu page of your Chip Shop site. They'll be shown a waiting time for orders (which you can easily keep updated), and will be instructed to pickup and pay in-store.
Taking orders in-store takes time, and takes you away from other jobs. Free up your time and improve order accuracy by allowing your customers to order on your Chip Shop site.
You'll need to have a computer, laptop, or tablet switched on in-store to receive orders. Almost any device with an internet browser will work fine.
