BentoBox

BentoBox is a New York City-based restaurant technology company that provides a marketing and commerce platform built around restaurant-owned websites. The platform combines websites, online ordering, marketing tools, point-of-sale and payment systems to help restaurants create guest experiences and manage their online presence [4]. The company began with website building for restaurants because the website was the one online property operators fully controlled, and later added the ability to push website content and information to third-party platforms such as Google and Facebook [6][7].

Over time the product set expanded to revenue-generating features including catering ordering, events management, private event booking, gift card sales, ticketing, merchandising and local directory listings [6][7]. As of 2019 the company said it planned to add on-demand online ordering, a point-of-sale system and a reservation system, and to begin serving larger restaurant chains [7].

BentoBox's solutions are now part of the Clover ecosystem. Its products and services are currently available only to Clover POS customers, while existing BentoBox customers are directed to their customer success managers or a shared support address for add-on purchases [0][1][5]. Customers span quick-service restaurants, full-service restaurants, cafés and bakeries, and food trucks, with case studies covering businesses in Brooklyn, Newark, Atlanta and the Houston area [2].
