📡 The truck brings its own network
The hub tablet's hotspot is enough. Customers' phones reach the menu and place orders across it, with no round trip to anything outside the truck.
For food trucks & market stalls
Two bars of signal.
Still trading.
A food truck's worst technology problem is the one it cannot fix: a car park, a field or an underground loading bay with no usable connection. OrderLah's answer is that the tablet in the truck is the server. Phones join its hotspot and order directly.
Made for a pitch you do not control
🎪 A new pitch is not a new setup
The devices are paired to the truck, not to a place. Park somewhere else and the same tablets find the same hub.
⏱️ Queue management without a queue
Order numbers, live status on the customer's phone and a Ready that reaches them where they are standing. Nobody hovers at the hatch.
💸 Cash still counts
Cash, wallet QR, terminal — recorded the same way, reconciled at the end of the day, with no processor taking a cut of a market-day takings.
Offline-first, honestly explained
Wi-Fi having a bad day?
Your stall shouldn't.
Most ordering systems are a website with your menu on it: the shop is a thin client, and when the line drops, so does lunch. OrderLah is built the other way round — your tablet is the server. It holds the menu, mints the order numbers and stores every order on the device itself.
- Customer, anywhere
- Internet (optional)
- Your hub tablet
Ordering from outside the shop is an extra you switch on. The hub dials out to a relay itself — no VPN, no router settings, nothing for you to keep alive.
- Internet — gone
- Your hub tablet
- Counter, kitchen & customer phones on the shop's own Wi-Fi
The QR at the table still opens the menu, the counter still sends orders, the Order Board still moves, and the takings are still recorded. Only ordering from outside the shop waits for the line to come back.
Because "sorry, system down" shouldn't be part of the menu.

The trial is the whole product for 14 days, with no card and nothing to cancel. The demo is the real flow with pretend data — order from a table, watch it hit the kitchen, move it to ready. No sign-up, no email, no salesperson.
How it works
Five steps, every single order.
This is a lunchtime with OrderLah running — what your customer does, what you hear, and what the kitchen sees. Looking for what you have to do first instead? That is five steps too, and they are here.
-
Step 1
The QR is on the table
One at the counter, one on every table, or both. OrderLah generates them for you — table numbers included, so the kitchen knows where the food goes. Printed once, and then it just sits there working.

Step 2
Customer scans
The phone camera does it. The menu opens in the browser they already have. Nothing to install, no account to create, no password anybody will forget.

Step 3
Customer orders
Items, variants, add-ons, quantity — and dine-in or takeaway when you've turned those on. Extra chicken, no cucumber, less spicy: it all comes through in writing, so nobody mishears it.
-
Step 4
You hear "DING!"
The hub plays the new-order ringtone and the chit appears on the board. It is designed to be hard to miss across a hot, noisy kitchen — because a missed order is a refund and an argument.

Step 5
Cooking → Ready → Done
One tap per stage. The board is the single source of truth for the counter, the kitchen and the display screen at the same moment — no shouting the same order twice.
