About KitchenRush

KitchenRush is restaurant software — not the cooking board game

If you searched for "Kitchen Rush" and landed here, you may be looking for one of two very different things. "Kitchen Rush" (two words) is a real-time cooperative cooking board game where players race the sand timers to plate dishes. It's a fun game, and we have nothing but respect for it. But it is not us.

KitchenRush (one word) is an all-in-one restaurant operating system built for independent restaurants and small local groups. It's software you run from your phone, not a tabletop game — and not a primarily POS or hardware company. KitchenRush complements the register you already use rather than asking you to rip it out and replace it.

Here's what KitchenRush actually does. It gives your restaurant a branded website with commission-free online ordering for pickup, delivery, and catering, plus delivery-app integration so your channels stay in sync. On the growth side, it handles AI-assisted social media and marketing, ad management, Google Business posting, email and SMS campaigns, direct customer messaging, and local SEO. In the back of house, a kitchen display system (KDS) keeps tickets moving.

The whole thing is set up for you. Most restaurants are live within about 48 hours, and once you're running you manage everything from your phone — orders, marketing, and customers in one place. There's nothing to assemble and no timers to flip.

KitchenRush is a subscription product. For current plans and what's included, see kitchenrush.app/pricing. The short version: if you want to win the cooperative cooking game, look for "Kitchen Rush" the board game. If you want to run and grow a real restaurant, you're in the right place.
