Restaurant online ordering in Boise, ID
Helping City of Trees restaurants own their orders
DirectOrders helps Boise restaurants keep every dollar with commission-free ordering in one of America's fastest-growing food cities.
The Boise food scene
Boise's food scene has exploded alongside its population boom, but its Basque culinary heritage gives it a foundation unique in America. The Basque Block downtown serves croquetas and lamb that rival anything in Bilbao, 8th Street and BoDo have become chef-driven dining corridors, and Idaho's incredible produce — potatoes, trout, huckleberries — gives local restaurants extraordinary ingredients.

Why Boise restaurants are switching to direct ordering
Boise's restaurant scene is competitive. With 1,200+ restaurants serving 235,684, standing out on third-party delivery apps is increasingly difficult. Restaurants near Boise Basque Block and 8th Street are discovering that owning their online ordering channel is the key to sustainable growth.
The Boise food delivery market is evolving. Boise's rapid population growth with transplants from Seattle, Portland, and the Bay Area has created a customer base that expects quality delivery options and orders frequently. Instead of paying 15-30% commission on every order to DoorDash or Uber Eats, forward-thinking Boise restaurants are switching to commission-free direct ordering platforms.
Challenges Boise restaurants face
Boise's restaurant scene is growing faster than the city's infrastructure, and third-party platforms are charging coastal-level commissions in a market where price expectations are still more affordable.
