Your catering customers are yours. Not EzCater's.
Caterbaby is the catering system we built to run our own restaurant. A fraction of the marketplace commission. No middleman. Your menu, your customers, your margins.

We didn't build this to sell software. We built it because we needed it. Here's what it did for our restaurant in 2025.

Marketplace owns the customer

Payment terms you control

Your brand, your site

No direct customer data
Full customer history — who orders, when, how much
What's actually in the box
Not just a cheaper ordering link
It's the system we use to run catering at our own restaurant. Here's what you get.
Custom proposals, approved online
Build a quote, send it, your customer approves with one click. No email chains, no phone tag, no lost PDFs.
One-click reorder for repeat accounts
52% of our orders are repeats. That's not luck — customers reorder from their history in seconds.
Group order planner from your real menu
Customers describe their group, get a suggested order built from your actual menu items and prices.
NET-30, invoicing, ACH
Office catering runs on payment terms. Cards, invoices, split billing — however your customers need to pay.
Kitchen-ready prep sheets
Print a prep sheet with quantities, dietary notes, and delivery details. Your kitchen doesn't need to dig through emails.
Review every order before it confirms
No auto-accept surprises. You see the order, check your capacity, and confirm when you're ready.
Not on EzCater? If you're managing catering by email and spreadsheet, or locked into Toast, we built this for you too.
How it works
