Discovering Independent Food With HolistiQ

Find out how you can spot hidden gems in your area, and discover all of the perks that come with eating local.

Discovering Independent Food With HolistiQ

We believe great food creates memories, brings people together and supports the heart of your neighbourhood, which is why HolistiQ’s community platform helps you find hospitality’s hidden gems in your area.

HolistiQ is more than just a food ordering app – it’s a hub built to bring people and independent businesses together to create memorable local dining experiences.

Discover more small cafes, bakeries and restaurants and help indie food thrive.

Is There an App For Discovering Independent Cafes and Restaurants?

HolistiQ’s community platform is designed to help you find local eateries, so you can support the businesses you feel are worthwhile.

We know it can be difficult to shop ethically when large corporations make it so convenient to choose them instead. We also understand you want variety, unique flavour, creativity and personality when you go to a cafe or order your takeaway.

That’s why we’ve developed a community platform that gives you all of the ease and simplicity of ordering from a chain, while knowing you’re putting your money back into the community.

Choosing local keeps your neighbourhood vibrant and supports the people behind the venture. Every independent venue we partner with has its own story, passion and connection to the local community, and you can be a part of that too.

How Can HolistiQ Help Me Find New Local Favourites?

Sometimes hidden gems are right on your doorstep, but without a way to discover them, they go unloved and customers miss out. So HolistiQ puts the cafes, restaurants and bakeries you might have never noticed in the spotlight where you can see them.

Our community platform highlights local heroes by recommending you spots you might like, and shining a spotlight on featured independent venues.

As new partners are always joining HolistiQ, there’s always something new to explore, so keep checking back in to see which fresh bites are new to the community.

How Can I Get a Better Customer Experience While Ordering Food?

HolistiQ is designed to remove common dining frustrations by smoothing out service complexities, so you’re not left trying to flag down a waiter, feeling pressured to make a choice or waiting ages for food.

Our order and pay at the table service allows you to place your order and pay the bill exactly when you’re ready, for a smoother, faster and more enjoyable experience from start to finish.

We also support pre-order for collection, so you can place your order on the move and pick it up when it’s ready, or have it delivered straight to your door.

We believe independent dining is about the human experience, not battling with technology. We’re not about replacing your server with an app, which is why we include handy chat functions, so you can talk directly to the server, without any frustrating AI chatbots.

Why is it Important to Support Local Eateries?

Every time you support a business in your area, you help families in your community, improve local jobs and ensure independent hospitality can stay afloat.

Independent hospitality also gives neighbourhoods character, by offering one-of-a-kind eateries that are totally unique to the area, instead of just the same big chain names.

Eating local is also more sustainable for the environment, as local cafes and restaurants have smaller supply chains, so your ingredients won’t have travelled as far to reach your plate.

Local, seasonal ingredients also make for fresher dishes, so your food will look more vibrant, have more flavour and even contain more nutrition.

Every meal you order through HolistiQ is an opportunity to make a positive difference, without changing any of your daily habits.

Why Should I Become a Member of the HolistiQ Community?

Joining the HolistiQ community of local, independent eateries can help you discover unique food at cafes, restaurants, bakeries and eateries of all shapes and sizes.

Enjoy a smoother ordering experience, improve your neighbourhoods and support local businesses, all by ordering through one simple platform.

Become a part of a growing community and create memorable food experiences close to home by creating an account through the HolistiQ app.
