What Hestora is
Software for running a restaurant. The digital menu, table bookings, the floor plan, orders, stock and the staff rota are all in the same dashboard, so you do not need a separate program for each one.
It is made by one person. The same person writes the code and answers the support email, and you pay a flat monthly price for it.
What is in the dashboard
- Digital menu Your menu behind a QR code. You design it in the editor and it is translated into other languages.
- QR codes QR codes you design yourself, for the menu or for bookings, and how often each one is scanned.
- Reservations Guests book from the menu, your website or a link. Confirmations and reminders go out on their own.
- Tables A floor plan of your room with the status of every table, and a waiting list for walk-ins.
- In testing Orders Waiters take orders on a phone, guests order with the table PIN, and the kitchen screen shows what to cook.
- Inventory Stock, deliveries, batches and expiry dates, and the food cost of each dish.
- Staff The weekly rota, absences, staff documents and a private chat with each employee.
- Coming soon HACCP Temperature and cleaning logs, documents and labels, kept on a tablet instead of on paper.
Try a real menu
Four example restaurants, each set up with a different menu layout. The phone shows the real menu page, the same one a guest opens from the QR code, so you can open a dish or change the language.
Try the editor
This is the editor from the dashboard, open on an example menu. Click any part of the menu to change it, or pick a template or a layout from the bar at the top. Nothing you do here is saved.

Orders
Waiters and guests order from a phone, and the kitchen sees it straight away.
Each table gets a PIN when it opens. Waiters take the order on a phone or tablet, guests can order from the menu with the PIN, and a waiter confirms it. The kitchen screen shows what to cook, and a dish can be marked as sold out.
We are still testing it. Write to us if you want to try it in your restaurant.

Record what comes in and what gets used, and see what is running low.

Good to know
What's a digital menu?
It's your menu as a web page behind a QR code. Guests point their phone at the code and it opens. There's nothing for them to install.
How long does setup take?
Most places are done in an afternoon: add your dishes, pick a theme, print the QR.
Is it really in other languages?
Yes. You write the menu once and it is translated into the languages you choose. Guests switch language with the buttons at the top of the menu, and you can correct any line yourself.
Do I reprint the QR when the menu changes?
No. The code never changes. Your edits appear behind it straight away.
Can I try it first?
Yes. It's free for 14 days and never asks for a card. Build your menu and see it live before paying.
Do I have to use every part?
No. You can start with the menu and add reservations, stock or the rota later. The Menu plan covers the menu and the QR codes; the Booking plan adds reservations, tables, stock and staff.
Start with the menu, add the rest when you need it.
Build the menu in the editor, print the QR code and put it on the tables. Bookings, tables, stock and the rota are in the same dashboard.
