Dishly: Real Food Made Local

About

Dishly connects you with real food from independent local creators nearby — home cooks, bakers, food trucks, vendors, private chefs, coffee stands, caterers, meal prep businesses, local restaurants and more you may not find on the big delivery apps. Order ahead, choose pickup or delivery where offered, book private chefs to cook at your home, and pay securely in-app. FOR FOOD LOVERS DISCOVER LOCAL CREATORS Browse nearby kitchens, creators and local restaurants by cuisine, dietary needs, distance and availability. See what’s ready now, made to order, taking pre-orders, open tonight or available to book. KNOW WHO’S COOKING Profiles show applicable verified permits, food-handler certifications, kitchen credentials and Halal or Kosher certifications reviewed by Dishly. Earned badges like Top Rated and Founding Creator help highlight trusted local favorites. PICKUP, DELIVERY OR PRIVATE CHEF Choose pickup or delivery based on what each creator or restaurant offers. For Private Chef listings, book a date and time for the chef to come to your home and prepare the meal on-site. Pre-order for later, add notes, and tip 100% to the creator or delivery provider. TRACK EVERY STEP Follow your order from accepted to cooking to ready. Tap On my way and use a 4-digit handoff code for pickup. Live location can be shared during applicable pickup and delivery trips and turns off afterward. CHAT WITH THE CREATOR Message the creator or restaurant directly once your order is accepted for allergies, spice level, pickup details, special requests or where to meet. PAY SAFELY Secure card payments stay inside the app. Pay a deposit when submitting your request, then the remaining balance once the creator accepts. If they can’t accept the order, your deposit is refunded. FOR CREATORS & LOCAL RESTAURANTS RUN YOUR FOOD BUSINESS FROM YOUR PHONE Whether you’re a home cook, baker, food truck, coffee stand, market vendor, private chef, pop-up, caterer, meal prep business or independent local restaurant — create your storefront, list what you sell and manage orders in one place. KEEP MORE OF WHAT YOU EARN New creators pay 0% Dishly commission for their first 14 days, then a simple 10% on completed orders. Tips are always 100% yours, and creators keep 100% of the delivery fees they charge. STAY IN CONTROL Accept or decline requests, set your hours and pricing, manage inventory and pre-orders, configure pickup or delivery, set delivery fees and pause whenever you need. Private Chefs can set booking availability, service times and guest capacity for in-home chef experiences. GROW WITH INSIGHTS See your best sellers, repeat customers, busiest days and order trends.
