GloriaFood alternative

The GloriaFood alternative that runs your whole restaurant

GloriaFood is good at one thing — online ordering — and adds paid services on top. Kyro gives you online ordering and the POS, QR, kiosk, kitchen display, delivery and loyalty that run the rest of the restaurant. One platform, built for Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Jordan.

Why restaurants outgrow GloriaFood

GloriaFood's free online ordering is a great start, but it stops at the website order. It isn't a POS, it doesn't run your floor or your kitchen, and key pieces like card payments and promotions come as paid upgrades. When you need one connected system, you need more than an ordering widget.

Where Kyro wins

  • It’s the whole system, not just the order button — POS, kitchen, dine-in, kiosk, delivery and loyalty in one place.
  • Commission-free online ordering connected to your kitchen and reports — not a standalone widget.
  • Dine-in covered too: QR ordering, waiter POS and kitchen display.
  • GCC-ready: ZATCA e-invoicing, full Arabic/RTL, Mada, STC Pay and Apple Pay.
  • One customer database across online and dine-in.

When GloriaFood is enough

If all you want is a free way to take orders from your website and you already have a POS and kitchen workflow you’re happy with, GloriaFood does that job. Kyro is for restaurants that want online ordering and one system to run everything else.

Moving to Kyro is low-risk: keep taking online orders while you set up the rest. We import your menu, configure your devices, and connect dine-in, kitchen and delivery — most restaurants are fully live the same day.
