What is a cloud kitchen?
A cloud kitchen is a delivery-only commercial kitchen. Orders come in through apps like Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat, and there's no dining room to run. Because you're not tied to one high street, you can open kitchens wherever delivery demand is strongest and add more as you grow.
Virtual brands
Run one or more delivery-only brands from a single kitchen.
Multi-site operators
Open a second or third kitchen in a new part of London under the same account.
Growing chains
Reach new postcodes on the delivery apps without the cost of new restaurants.
New concepts
Test a menu with real delivery customers before you commit to a bigger site.

Choose the site that puts you closest to your customers. Delivery apps only show your menu to customers within a limited distance, so we'll help you pick a kitchen based on real delivery demand, not just the postcode.

Cloud kitchen FAQs
What is a cloud kitchen?
A cloud kitchen is a commercial kitchen used only for delivery orders, which come in through apps like Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat. Brands use them to reach customers across a city without opening restaurants.
Why choose Encore Kitchens for a cloud kitchen in London?
Encore Kitchens runs over 550 kitchens across the UK and works with more than 300 brands, including Wingstop, Byron and Bronson’s. You pay one flat monthly fee with no revenue share. Compliance, maintenance and site management are handled centrally at every site. With sites across Central, North, East, South and West London, you can open where delivery demand for your cuisine is strongest, then add kitchens as you grow. Bronson’s Burgers, for example, launched in one Encore kitchen as a start-up and grew to a London-wide network. Every brand also gets a dedicated account manager who helps manage your relationship with the delivery platforms.
How much does a cloud kitchen in London cost?
Prices start from £2,750 + VAT a month in Greater London and £3,250 + VAT a month in Central London. That's one flat membership fee covering business rates, water, wifi, pest control, kitchen services and maintenance, with no revenue share on your delivery sales. The exact price depends on the site and kitchen size. Book a tour for a quote.
Can I open cloud kitchens in more than one part of London?
Yes. With 18 London sites, you can start in the area with the strongest demand for your cuisine, then add a second or third kitchen elsewhere under the same account as you grow.
Can I run more than one brand from one kitchen?
Yes. Our kitchens are designed to run more than one concept from the same site, and we can help you place another brand in a different postcode if that suits your plans better.
How do you help me choose a location?
We match brands to sites using delivery demand data for their cuisine, rather than leaving the research to you. Delivery apps only show your menu to customers within a limited distance, so the exact location matters.
Is a cloud kitchen the same as a dark kitchen or a ghost kitchen?
Yes. They're different names for the same thing: a commercial kitchen used only for delivery orders.
