What is adark kitchen?
Delivery only kitchens also called ghost or cloud kitchens let you grow revenue from the space you already have, without extra rent or front of house staff.
How it works
Four steps, from order to door.
The operational flow is straightforward. What differs is the focus: everything is optimised for speed, and delivery quality rather than table service.
Order arrives on screen
Directly to your kitchen display or POS, no handoffs.
Kitchen prepares and packs
Recipes engineered to travel well; consistent branded packaging.
Packed and handed to riders
Platform handles logistics. You focus on the food.

FAQ
Got doubts? We've got answers
The most common questions from restaurant owners before they start.
Are “dark kitchen”, “ghost kitchen” and “cloud kitchen” the same thing?+
They are often used interchangeably. All refer to kitchens focused on delivery or takeaway rather than a traditional dine-in restaurant.
Do I need to rent a separate kitchen to operate as a dark kitchen?+
Not necessarily. The E-vittles model is designed so many restaurants can use their existing kitchen and team.
How long does it take to launch a virtual brand with E-vittles?+
Timelines depend on your setup, but the model is built for a fast launch with training, platform setup and brand rollout handled by E-vittles.
Can one kitchen run multiple E-vittles brands at the same time?+
Yes. The brands are designed around shared operational logic so one kitchen can run multiple concepts without unnecessary complexity.
