Where the kitchen started

Everything about takeaway ordering depended on one form working perfectly. What visitors should do if it failed was never written down.

What it was costing the team

Day to day with takeaway ordering, visitors hitting an error scavenged the footer for alternatives. Staff had no routine check, so a failed form could go unnoticed for days.

What we built

The fix, in the order a customer meets it

The contact page now presents an alternative method, a meaningful error message and the details worth including in any follow-up. Delivery checks cover the fields for delivery ZIP code, order time and menu category and the exact destination the live form uses.

working days, content approval to handover

How the time was spent

  1. Content approved

    The clock starts when the kitchen signs off the content, not at purchase.

  2. Build and staff review

    The work is built, then checked by the staff who will use it before anything goes live.

  3. Handover

    20 working days after content approval, including staff review and handover.

What changed

For takeaway ordering, the plan for a bad day is written down and tested.

I asked what happens when the takeaway ordering form fails, and the answer became a feature. That is the right response to that question.
